Quick start guide for toaster operation

If toasting one or two slices:

Always use the Left Bread Carriage Lever (1) and Left Bread Slots (2).

If toasting more than two slices:

Use both the Left (1) and Right (3) Bread Carriage Levers and Left (2) and Right (4) Bread Slots.

The Right Bread Carriage Lever (3) will not operate unless the Left Bread Carriage Lever (1) is in use.

Before first use

• Before using your toaster for the first time, operate the toaster without bread.
• As with all new electric heating elements, your toaster will emit a ‘new’ smell when it is first switched on. This is quite normal and not a cause for concern.

Toasting one or two slices

• Place the sliced bread into the Left Bread Slots (2).
• Adjust the Browning Control (8) to the desired setting.

Toasting three or four slices

• Place the sliced bread into the Left (2) and Right (4) Bread Slots.
• Adjust the Browning Control (8) to the desired setting.
• Depress both Bread Carriage Levers (1 & 3). The toaster will begin toasting the bread. The Illumination Strip (10) and the Cancel Button (6) will light up.
• When completed, the Bread Carriage Levers will automatically rise and lift the toast from the toaster.

Additional features

Cancel Button
If you wish to interrupt the toasting process, press the Cancel Button (6). The Cancel Button illuminates during the toasting cycle.

Re-heat Button
If your toast has popped up and gone cold, the toaster offers a re-heat facility. To use, depress Bread Carriage Levers (1 & 3) (depending on how many slices of bread require re-heating), and press the Re-heat Button (7) immediately. The button will illuminate and the toaster will operate for a short period, reheating the bread.

Frozen Button
To toast frozen bread, do not adjust the Browning Control (8) from your normal setting. Place the frozen bread in the Bread Slots (2 & 4), depress the Bread Carriage Levers (1 & 3) and press the Defrost Button (9). The button will illuminate and the toaster will operate for a longer period, defrosting and toasting the bread.

Removing the Crumb Tray

WARNING: Crumbs will accumulate in the Crumb Trays (5) and could catch fire if not emptied regularly.

1. When the appliance has cooled down completely, tap the sides of the case lightly to dislodge any crumbs stuck in the Bread Slots (2 & 4).
2. Press the Crumb Trays to unlock and remove from the toaster.
3. Empty the Crumb Trays and replace them, push to lock back into place. Never operate the appliance without the Crumb Trays fitted.

Hints and tips

• In order to achieve uniform browning, we recommend you wait a minimum of 30 seconds between each toasting so that the control can be automatically reset.
• If toasting one slice only, you may need to adjust the Browning Control (8) to a slightly lower setting. You will notice a variation in toast color on one side of a single slice. The side facing the outside wall of the Bread Slots (2 & 4) will be darker in color than the side facing the inner wall of the Bread Slot.
• When toasting 2 or m ore slices it is recommended they are of equal size and freshness.
• Stale bread toasts more rapidly than fresh bread. Therefore, the Browning Control should be set at a lower setting than usual.
• All sorts of bread can be used as well as teacakes, small rolls etc. Slices should not however be so thick as to cause burning or jamming within the Bread Slots (2 & 4).
• If the bread in your toaster becomes jammed, disconnect your toaster at the socket, allow it to cool, then remove the bread.
• Allow the toaster to cool fully before putting it away.
• Should some toast remain blocked in the toaster, remove the plug from the mains, wait for the toaster to cool down until it is safe to touch, then turn the toaster over and shake it gently.

Care and cleaning

• Before cleaning, unplug your toaster and let it cool down.
• The external part of the appliance must be cleaned with a soft cloth. Do not use abrasive detergents that can ruin the surface.
• DO NOT IMMERSE IN WATER.
• After each use, remove the plug from the electrical outlet and empty the crumb collection tray that is under the appliance. DO NOT TOUCH ANY PART OF THE TOASTER WITH SHARP OR METAL UTENSILS, ESPECIALLY INSIDE THE BREAD TOASTING SLOTS. RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK AND DAMAGE TO THE TOASTER.
