This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.

3. If an extension cord is used:
   • The marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance;
   • If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be a grounding-type 3-wire cord; and

Toasting

Your toaster features two sets of independent slots, each with individual buttons for: toast shade selection, bagel, frozen, reheat, and cancel. Be sure to adjust each side individually so that you can toast two different kinds of foods at once using different settings (for example, waffles on one side, and bagels on the other).

1. Adjust the toast shade selector to the desired setting (1 to 7). For first use, set the dial to setting 4. Adjust as desired to suit your taste. Tip: Toast thin slices on lower settings.
2. Place bread slices or other foods in the center of the slots and press down the toast lever until it locks in place.
   • The bread guides will automatically adjust to hold thick or thin slices in place.
   • When toasting is done, the toast lever goes up and the unit shuts off.
   • Tip: If needed, lift the toast lever upward to raise the toast above the slots.
