Features of your Toaster

1. Self-centring bread slots
   Whether you are toasting thick or thin slices, your bread will always be held in the centre of the slot to ensure even toasting.

2. QuickCheck™ feature
   The progress of the toast can be checked at any time by lifting up the toasting lever. This can be done without interrupting the toasting cycle.

3. High-lift and toasting lever
   When toasting small pieces of bread, crumpets or muffins we recommend using the High-lift lever to prevent you from burning your fingers.

4. Gluten Free button
   The gluten free function offers an adjusted toasting time which is suited to gluten free bread. This function can be used in conjunction with any of the bread select functions and browning control. Select this function after you have selected the bread type and altered the browning control.

5. Bread Select button
   The bread select function adjusts the toasting time for the type of bread selected. The bread select function has 6 settings: White, Grain, Brown / Rye, Sourdough, Crumpet and Fruit. Select the bread type and the toaster will adjust the toasting time accordingly. The bread select function can be used in conjunction with the gluten free function and the browning control. After each use, the toaster will be automatically set to the setting that was last used. If the power is switched off, the toaster will default to white bread.

6. Cancel button
   The Cancel button immediately interrupts any toasting cycle and pops the toast up.

7. Browning controls
   The browning control regulates how long the bread is toasted. Lower settings produce lighter toast and higher settings produce darker toast.
   When setting the browning control, remember that dry or thin slices of bread will toast quicker and require a lower setting. Moist or thick slices of bread will require a higher setting.

8. Countdown timer
   The countdown timer on the toaster will indicate the time left until your bread reaches the desired level of browning. The length of time it takes for the bread to toast will vary depending on the selected bread type and browning control settings.
   NOTE: If the selected bread type or browning level is changed during toasting, the lights and timer will automatically adjust themselves.

9. Removable crumb tray
   Pulls out from underneath your toaster for easy removal of crumbs.

Using your Toaster

Hot Surfaces Do Not Touch This symbol indicates that the temperature of accessible surfaces may be high when the appliance is operating and for some time after use.
Plug the toaster into a 230-240 volt AC power outlet and switch the power on.

Toasting Bread

1. Place the bread into the toasting slots. You can use any or all slots. Press the loading handle down until it latches. The bread will be lowered into the toaster and toasting will begin. The loading handle will not latch if your toaster is not connected to the mains supply.

2. Set the level of toasting by selecting
   the correct bread on the bread select function in conjunction with the browning control, and gluten free button if required. The higher the number selected on the browning control, the darker the toast will be.

3. If the toast is not brown after after toasting, it can be toasted again. Repeat the operation but turn the browning control to a lower setting and watch the toast to ensure that it doesn’t burn.

4. Toasting can be stopped at any time by pressing the cancel button.

Toasting Tips

• Toasting is a combination of drying and cooking the bread and, because moisture levels differ from one bread to another, toasting times can vary.
• For slightly dry bread, use a lower setting than normal.
• For fresh bread or whole wheat bread, use a higher setting than normal.
• Bread which has a very uneven surface will require a higher setting.
• Thicker cut pieces of bread (including crumpets) will take longer to toast—sometimes significantly longer. This is because more moisture must be evaporated from the bread before toasting can occur. Very thick pieces of bread may require two toasting cycles.
• When toasting raisin or other fruit breads, remove any loose raisins or fruit from the surface of the bread before putting it into your toaster. This will help prevent fruit pieces from falling into your toaster or sticking to the guard wires in the toasting slot.
• If your bread jams in the toaster, switch power off, remove the plug from the power outlet and ease the bread out of the toaster.
• Ensure muffins or bagels are cut into even halves and fit freely into the bread slot. Do not force them into the toaster.
  Single slice toasting
  If toasting 1 slice it is recommended that you use a lower toaster setting to achieve your required browning and to prevent burning.
  WARNING: Never attempt to extract jammed toast, muffins, bagels or crumpets with a knife or any other metal object, as contact with the live element may cause electrocution.

Care and Cleaning

Always turn the power OFF and remove the plug from the power outlet after use and before cleaning your toaster.
To clean the exterior
The surface of the Toaster may be wiped over with a damp cloth and polished with a soft dry cloth. Take care not to knock or damage the paintwork, as this may result in areas where the finish does not retain its original character. Clean the exterior of the product by wiping with a soft, lint-free damp cloth.
CAUTION: Do not use any polishing agents, chemicals, steel wool or abrasive cleaning products to clean the outside of the kettle as these can damage the appearance.
Removable Crumb Tray
To remove the crumbs, simply pull the tray out, empty, and place it back in the toaster. Important: Clean the crumb tray regularly. Do not allow crumbs to accumulate, as they may cause a potential fire hazard.
To clean the toaster interior
Clean inside the toaster regularly. To do this, unplug the appliance, turn it upside down over the sink and gently shake all the crumbs out.
