INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

The product gets hot when it is on, do not touch the hot surfaces. Be careful not to burn yourself when removing bread from the slots. The 4-slot toaster can be seen as 2 separate toasters. Each side has 2 slots with its display, slide lever, rotary knob and buttons. The 2 sides can be used simultaneously for different programs. In the instructions below, we explain the operation for one side. The same applies to the other side.

Before first use

Choose a suitable location to place the product:

A flat, heat-resistant and non-flammable surface;
At least 20 cm away from walls and/or the back of your countertop;
At least 30 cm away from cabinets and/or shelves that may be above the product;
away from combustible materials, such as curtains and wall coverings;
Away from any gas stove flame or electrical element.
Make sure no foreign objects (e.g. packaging material) are in the slots before operating the product.
Clean the outside of the product with a damp cloth.
Place the removable crumb tray in the crumb tray slot.
Plug in the power cord. The sliding lever will not lock if the product is not plugged in.
Push the sliding lever all the way down until it locks.
Run a toasting cycle. At the end of it, the slots will pop up and the product will automatically turn off.
Note : Do not put bread in the toaster when using the product for the first time. During the first use, the new heat elements are preheated and any dust accumulated during storage or manufacturing is burned off.
It is normal for this burning to cause an odour. After the first use, this odour will disappear.

Toasting bread
The product may be used a maximum of 6 times in a row. After this, you need to turn it off for at least 5 minutes to let it cool down before using it again.

Remove the crumb tray, clean it and put it back.
Plug in the power plug.
Place the slice of bread in a slot. If you want to toast several slices, place each slice in a slot.
Push the slide lever down.
The display turns on and the toaster begins heating at the highest setting (6).
Use the + and – buttons on the touchscreen to adjust the toasting setting. The higher the number, the longer the bread is toasted and the browner it gets.
If you are toasting whole wheat bread, you can press the “Whole Wheat Bread” button to heat the slice longer so that it gets nice and brown.
The display shows the remaining time. When the selected level is reached, the slots pop up and the display goes out. The product turns off automatically.

Which setting should you choose?
The choice of the toasting setting depends on your taste but also the type and freshness of the bread. As an indication, you can use the following:

Lower setting: Sweet bread products (waffles, raisin bread, etc.), thin bread, old bread, white bread.
Higher setting: thick bread, fresh bread, rye bread.

Defrosting frozen bread
This feature automatically adjusts the toasting time to first defrost the bread and then toast it according to the selected level.

Follow the steps 1 to 5 as explained in “3.2 Toasting bread”.
Press the “Defrost” button right after pushing the slide lever down.
The “Defrost” button flashes and the remaining time appears on the display.
