Using your Toaster

Toasting Bread

  1. Position the bread into the bread slot.

  2. Select the desired browning setting using the Browning Control.
    Note: If toasting 1 slice only, it is recommended that you use a lower browning setting to achieve your required result and to prevent burning.
    Important: Do not toast stale bread, rice crackers or similar on a high setting as there is a chance that they may catch fire.

  3. Push the Toasting Lever down to commence the toasting cycle.

  4. When the desired browning is achieved, the toaster will automatically stop toasting and pop the toast up.

  5. If you need to remove the toast before the cycle is complete, press the Cancel button. The Cancel button will immediately interrupt the toasting cycle and pop the toast up.

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

QuickCheckTM
If you need to quickly check the progress
of your toast without stopping the toasting cycle, use the QuickCheckTM feature. Simply lift up the toasting lever to view the toast and then release it when you have finished. If the toast is ready press 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.
  • The 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.
  • Ensure muffins or bagels are cut into even halves and fit freely into the bread slot. Do not force them into the toaster.
  • When toasting raisins or other fruit bread, 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 toasting 1 slice only, it is recommended that you use a lower browning setting to achieve your required result and to prevent burning.
  • If your bread jams in the toaster, switch the power off, remove the plug from the power outlet and ease the bread out of the toaster.

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 remove the plug from the power outlet after use and before cleaning your toaster.
To clean the toaster exterior
Wipe the exterior with a slightly dampened cloth and polish with a soft dry cloth.

CAUTION: Do not use metal scourers or abrasives as this may scratch the exterior surface.

Removable crumb tray
To remove the crumbs, simply pull the tray out, empty it, 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.
