Additional safety instructions
-
The mains plug is to be pulled:
• If malfunctions occur during the use
• before cleaning and care
• after use. -
To prevent the toaster from being mechanically switched on by mistake, the plug must always be disconnected prior to storage.
-
Only connect the device to properly installed earthed sockets. The wire and plug must be dry.
-
Never operate the toaster unattended.
-
Do not pull the connecting cable over sharp edges or clamp it. Do not let it hang down and protect it from heat and oil.
-
Do not place the device on hot surfaces, such as hot plates or similar, and do not operate near open flames.
-
Do not operate the toaster without the crumb tray inserted.
-
Never disconnect the mains plug from the socket by the cord or with wet hands.
-
Stop using the appliance and/or connect it from the mains plug immediately if:
• The appliance or mains cable is damaged
• There is any suspicion of a fault after dropping the appliance or similar.
In such cases, send the appliance to be repaired. -
When inserting the toast, ensure that the bread slices do not get jammed. However, should this happen, first pull the power plug and then remove the interference.
-
Do not reach into the bread slots with your fingers or objects, such as forks, knives, etc.
-
Only operate the toaster in the upright position away from other objects.
-
Do not cover the bread slot during toasting. Do not lay any bread slices or rolls on the casing, as this causes the device to overheat.
No liability is assumed for any damages in cases of misuse, improper
operation, or unprofessional repairs. Claims under warranty are likewise
excluded in such cases.
The danger of suffocation!
Do not allow children to play with packaging materials.
Use
This toaster is suitable for slices of bread (up to a size of 11 x 11 cm),
braided rolls, and similar baked goods with a maximum thickness of 2.6 cm. Do
not use it for baked goods with fillings or spreads, e.g. butter or jam.
Start-up
The section of the power cable not in use can be wound up and stored on the
base of the appliance. Connect the power plug to a shockproof socket.
Prior to first use, carry out at least one toasting cycle without bread and at
maximum power, to remove the surface protection on the heating elements. The
smell released during this process is harmless, but you should ensure good
ventilation nevertheless. Always allow the appliance to cool down a little
before switching it on.
Warning: risk of burns: Accessible surfaces can become very hot. They
remain hot for a while even after toasting is finished. Insert the bread slices
into the bread slots. The slices should not be thicker than 2.6 cm so that
they do not jam. Place small slices next to one another in an upright position
in the bread slot so that it is easier to take them out after toasting. Switch
on the toaster by pushing the Lift lever downwards. The toasting process
begins. Press the Plus/Minus buttons to adjust the browning level to medium
(level 5) initially. The display of the browning level changes after a few
seconds to the countdown display, which shows the remaining toasting time. The
selected browning level will be saved for the next toasting process
automatically after the display change. Once the toasting time has finished,
the toasting process ends automatically and the finished toast is raised from
the bread slot for removal.
Notes on the browning level
If the toast is too light in color, select a higher browning level. If it is
too dark, set the control knob to a lower level. The figures 1 to 10 serve only
for orientation purposes. The higher the setting, the darker the browning
level.
The toasting result may vary at the same setting depending on the type, size,
moisture, and thickness of the bread slices. Therefore, select a lower setting
when toasting less moist bread, smaller slices, or only one slice.
When toasting only one slice, the browning level on the side facing inwards
will be slightly more intensive.
Acrylamide is generated during excessive browning. Excessive browning of
the toast should therefore be avoided.
Interrupting the toasting process
Press the illuminated button to interrupt the toasting process.
Warming/roasting
If the warming button is pressed immediately after switching on the appliance,
cold but already toasted bread will be crisped up and too lightly toasted
bread will be slightly toasted.
Defrosting
If this button is pressed directly after the appliance is switched on, the
toasting cycle will be extended automatically to toast frozen bread.
Bread roll attachment
The toaster is fitted with an integrated roll attachment. It is set up by
turning the switch 90 ° clockwise. One roll can be baked from both sides, each
on the minimum setting. Rolls that are too dry should be moistened slightly
beforehand – it works better this way.
Crumb tray
Crumbs produced during toasting are collected in the crumb tray. To empty,
briefly press against the crumb tray. You will then be able to pull it out of
the device.
Note: When you press the function keys on the control panel, beeping
sounds are emitted. If you hold down the Warm-up and Minus buttons
simultaneously for three seconds, the beeping sounds are deactivated. A long
beep confirms that these sounds have been deactivated. To reactivate the
beeping sounds, repeat the above step.
Cleaning and maintenance
Before cleaning, disconnect the appliance from the mains and allow the
appliance to cool down. Use a hard brush to remove crumbs sticking to the
grids and the heater. Do not tilt the appliance while you do this, or crumbs
will spill from the crumb tray into the inside of the toaster. Then pull out
the crumb tray, clean it and reinsert it.
Never immerse the toaster in the water. Wipe the outside of the appliance only
with a damp cloth and some washing-up liquid. Do not use harsh or abrasive
cleaning agents. Do not clean with oven/grill spray. Do not use a steam
cleaner.
