BEFORE USING IT FOR THE FIRST TIME

Set the browning level to maximum. Operate the appliance empty, to cure the new elements. This may smell a bit, but it’s nothing to worry about. Ensure the room is well ventilated.

TOASTING BREAD

Sit the toaster upright on a firm, level, heat-resistant surface.
Put the plug into the power socket.
Turn the browning control to the required setting (1 = light, 6 = dark).
Put the bread into the toasting slots (maximum thickness 25mm).
Press the lever down fully. It won’t lock down unless the toaster is connected to the electricity supply.
The toasting time gauge will show the toasting time and start to count down.
When it reaches 0 , the toast will pop up.
To stop toasting, press the buttons.
• You may raise the lever further, to remove small items.
•You may raise the lever during toasting, to check progress, then lower it again.

FROZEN BREAD

Leave the browning control at your favoured setting, insert the frozen bread, lower the lever, then press the button.
The light will come on, and the toasting time will be altered automatically to give the same degree of browning you get with unfrozen bread.
The toasting time gauge will show the toasting time and start to count down.
When it reaches 0, the toast will pop up.

REHEATING TOAST

Leave the browning control at your favoured setting, insert the bread, lower the lever, then press the button.
The light will come on, and the toast will be given a short burst of heat.
The toasting time gauge will move to the 30-second mark and start to count down.
When it reaches 0, the toast will pop up.
• Only reheat plain, “unbuttered” toast.

TOASTING TIME GAUGE

The gauge shows the time it will take to make the toast at the selected browning control setting.

If you cancel toasting by pressing the button, the gauge will stay at the time it was showing when you pressed the button. If you restart toasting by lowering the lever, the gauge will move to the 3 mark then readjust to show the correct toasting time.
If you change the position of the browning control during toasting, the gauge will move to the 3 mark then readjust to show the correct toasting time.
It will also adjust itself automatically when you use the frozen bread for reheat buttons .

BUN WARMER

Don’t use the bun warmer to warm frozen, buttered, coated, iced, or filled buns.

Sit the bun warmer on top of the toaster, with the feet inside the slots.
Sit the buns on top of the bun warmer.
Set the browning level to 1, then lower the lever.
When the lever pops up, remove the warmed buns.
Don’t touch the bun warmer wires – they’ll be hot.
Remove the bun warmer before using the toaster normally.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Unplug the appliance and let it cool.
Wipe outer surfaces with a damp cloth.
