Toasting bread

3. Place the slice(s) of bread in the slot(s).

4. Select your desired level of darkness between 1 and 6 with the thermostat knob:

   • 1-2: Lightly toasted
   • 3-4: Moderately toasted
   • 5-6: Very toasted The toaster’s operation time increases with an increased level of darkness.

5. Lower the bread carriage lever completely until it locks. The toaster turns on automatically.
   Note: If the power cord is not plugged in, the bread carriage lever cannot be locked.

6. The toaster turns off automatically and the toast is lifted when the level of darkness is achieved.

7. After use, unplug the appliance from the plug and wait for it to cool down completely before storing it in a dry place.If the bread is stuck in the toaster, unplug the appliance from the power outlet, let it cool down then remove the bread. Do not attempt to remove bread that is stuck with a metal utensil if the appliance is plugged in. Make sure to not damage the mechanism’s internal elements or the heating element by removing bread that is jammed.

“Cancel” function

• Toasting can be stopped at any time by pressing the “Cancel” button. The toaster turns off automatically and the bread is lifted out.
• Do not try to raise the bread carriage lever by hand at the risk of damaging the mechanism and your toaster.

User tips

• At first use, we advise that you select level 3. Then, you will adjust the level of darkness according to different types of bread and your personal tastes.
• Select the lowest thermostat setting to get lightly golden slices of toast.
• Dry bread toasts faster than fresh bread, and thin slices of bread toast faster than thick slices of bread. Select a lower thermostat setting.
• Whole bread and bread with an uneven surface takes longer to toast. Select a higher thermostat setting.
• If you insert only one slice of bread in the toaster, select a lower thermostat setting so it does not become too dark.
• With continuous operation at the same level of darkness, bread will be more toasted at the end of use than at the start of use.
•  If, after toasting, the bread does not stick out of the appliance for easier grasping, you can raise the lever slightly to lift the contents of the toaster.
