The Pop-Up Toaster features a durable stainless steel housing, four self-centering extra- wide slots, individual toasting controls, removable crumb trays for easy cleaning, and a 6′ (1829 mm) cord with a plug. The Hatco Pop-Up Toaster is a product of extensive research and field testing. The materials used were selected for maximum durability, attractive appearance, and optimum performance. Every unit is inspected and tested thoroughly prior to shipment. This manual provides the installation, safety, and operating instructions for the Hatco Pop-Up Toaster.

CAUTION
