Use

Electrical Shock Hazard

Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove earth prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire, or electrical shock.

The appliance can be used safely at both 50 Hz or 60 Hz without making any setting change.

Before first use

Remove all stickers and labels and clean the outside of the toaster with a damp cloth.
Use the toaster for the first time without any bread in it.
Turn the browning control to the maximum position and press the breadlift down. In this way you will burn off any dust that has fallen into the toaster during production or transport.

User hints & tips

The first round of toast you make enables the heating elements to reach the correct toasting temperature. Please note that further rounds of toast could take less time.
Please consider that the type of bread you use will impact the toasting times. The fresher the bread you use, the longer it will take to toast. Different kinds of bread have different moisture content and will require different browning levels. For example, fruit breads generally toast much quicker, and freshly baked breads will take longer as they have a greater humidity content.

For best results:

Toast only one type of bread at a time.
Toast bread slices of the same thickness.
Use bread slices no thicker than 30mm.
If you are using handcut bread please try to cut slices as evenly as possible. Uneven slices will toast unevenly.
Be aware that if you use very thin slices of bread or broken bread they will burn.

Operation

If necessary, shorten the cord by wrapping it under the base.
Plug in the toaster.
Insert the bread in the slot. Please note that as bread is not normally square you may need to turn the bread on its side to get a better fit and optimize the toasting surface area.
Choose the desired browning degree (Browning levels 1 to 6, from light to dark) or the “Reheat function” ****.
Push the lever down until it clicks to activate the toasting cycle.
If needed, select the additional functions Defrost or Bagel or the two combined.
The heating element is now activated. The bread will be centred in the breadlift automatically for toasting.
The toasted bread will pop up automatically when the toast is ready.
If the toast is not brown enough and requires just a little extra time, use the reheat button to extend the toasting time.

Warning

If the appliance is not connected to the mains, the breadlift does not lock.

Special functions

Cancelling/stopping the toasting cycle

At any time, it is possible to cancel or stop the toasting cycle by pushing the button.

Defrost

This function gently defrosts frozen bread and toasts it at the selected browning level. To activate it, insert the bread into the slot, select the desired browning degree, press the breadlift down until it clicks, then push the defrost button and it will light up. Toasting time will be automatically increased to allow the bread to defrost and brown correctly. When the toast will pop up automatically the light of the defrost button will switch off.

Bagel

This special function is ideal to toast one side only, for bagels, flat bread, muffins, baguettes, etc. To use the function simply insert the bread into the slot with the side that you want toasted facing the outside, select the desired browning degree, press the breadlift down until it clicks, then push the Bagel function button and it will light up. When the bread is toasted, it will pop up automatically and the light of the Bagel function button will switch off.

Reheat

This function allows you to reheat cold toasts or to continue a toasting cycle if the result is not satisfactory. To activate it insert the bread into the slot, select the Reheat function on the browning control knob and press the breadlift down until it clicks. The central light of the browning control knob will light up. When the toast is ready, it will pop up automatically and the light of the control knob will switch off.

Using optional accessories

Accessories may differ according to specification.

Hot appliance

The bun warmer and sandwich rack will be hot during the toasting cycle. When removed from the toaster, take care not to burn yourself by touching the metal parts.

Sandwich racks

Sandwich racks

Using

TSSR02 Model suitable for TSF02 Toaster

The sandwich racks are ideal for toasting filled sandwiches, or for easy access of smaller items such as bagels.

User hints & tips

Lightly butter the outside of the bread, this prevents burning and helps with the warming of the filling. Do not butter the inside of the sandwich.
For best results use thinly sliced ingredients and finely grated cheese.
For best results use cold meat (ham, turkey etc.) at room temperature, not straight from the refrigerator.
Do not overfill the sandwich.
If using a low browning setting the filling might not heat through correctly. In this case, at the end of the toasting cycle, leave the toast inside the cooking compartment for longer, or extend the time by using the reheat button.

Warning

If the appliance is not connected to the mains, the breadlift does not lock.

How to use:

Open the rack with the handles.
Place the sandwich inside the rack.
Close the sandwich rack handles together to grip the sandwich in the middle of the racks.
Insert the sandwich rack into the slot and select a browning level. If a little more browning is required, you can use the reheat button to extend the toasting time.
Push the breadlift down until it clicks to activate the toasting cycle.
When the toasting cycle ends remove the sandwich rack from the toaster.
