OPERATING YOUR NEW APPLIANCE

1. Insert the power plug into a 220 – 240V power outlet then turn the power on.
   BEFORE FIRST USE
   We suggest toasting on the maximum setting without bread. The toaster may emit a thin smoke or distinct odor on initial use.
   This is normal and not detrimental to the performance of the toaster.

2. Place 1 slice of bread into each of the toasting slots.

3. Select the desired browning setting by adjusting the browning control slide on the front of the toaster.

4. To start the toasting process, press the TOAST/CANCEL button.

5. The A Quick Look™ button can be pressed up until 10 seconds before the end of the toasting cycle to view the browning of the bread.

6. Once the toasting cycle has completed and the carriage has risen and locked into the raised position, the toast ready alert will sound.

WARNING
Do not leave the toaster unattended when in use as toast may jam. In the unlikely event that bread, crumpet, bagels, or muffins become jammed in the toasting slots, all the button buttons and the LED toasting progress indicator will flash and the elements will turn off. Switch the toaster off at the power outlet, remove the power plug and allow the toaster to cool completely before carefully easing the bread out of the slots. Take care not to damage the elements.

NOTE
Toasting can be stopped at any time by pressing the TOAST/CANCEL button.
