IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

At Breville we are very safety conscious. We design and manufacture consumer products with the safety of you, our valued customer, foremost in mind. In addition we ask that you exercise a degree of care when using any electrical appliance and adhere to the following precautions.

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE AND SAVE FOR FUTURE REFERENCE

  • Remove and safely discard any packaging material and promotional labels before using the toaster for the first time.
  • To eliminate a choking hazard for young children, remove and safely discard the protective cover fitted to the power plug of this toaster.
  • Do not place the toaster near the edge of a bench or table during operation. Ensure the surface is level, clean and free of water and other substances.
  • Do not operate the toaster on a sink drain board
  • Do not place the toaster on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or where it could touch a heated oven.
  • Keep the toaster clear of walls and other heat sensitive materials such as cloths and curtains.
  • Always ensure the toaster is properly assembled before use. Follow the instructions provided in this book.
  • The toaster is not intended to be operated by means of an external timer or separate remote control system.
  • Bread may burn, therefore this toaster must not be used near or below curtains or other combustible material and it must be supervised at all times when in use.
  • Ensure that bread to be toasted is the correct size for the toaster and does not protrude above the bread slice opening. Ensure the bread is not too thick or long that it will jam or wedge in the bread carriage.
  • Never cover the toaster when it is plugged into the power outlet or while hot.
  • Do not place cold toast directly on top of toasting slots to warm toast as this may prevent correct air circulation and damage the toaster.
  • Do not move the toaster whilst in operation or when hot.
  • The temperature of accessible surfaces may be high when the toaster is in operation and also for some time after use.
  • When operating the toaster, keep a minimum distance of 10cm of space from the surrounding sides & 20cm above.
  • Do not place the toaster in enclosed areas
  • Do not leave unattended when in use as toast may jam or wedge in the bread carriage. Never attempt to extract toast or any other item that has jammed or wedged in the toaster with a knife or any other object as contact with live elements may not only damage the element but cause electrocution.
  • Do not touch hot surfaces. Use side areas and oven mitt for lifting and carrying the toaster.
  • Always turn the power off at the power outlet and then remove the plug from the power outlet before attempting to move the toaster, when the toaster is not in use and before cleaning or storing.
  • Do not operate the toaster without the removable crumb trays in place.
  • The crumb trays should be regularly cleaned. Do not allow breadcrumbs to accumulate in the bottom of the toaster. Failure to clean the crumb trays regularly may result in a fire hazard. To clean any additional crumbs, turn the toaster upside down over a sink and shake crumbs free.
  • Do not clean with metal scouring pads. Pieces can break off the pad and touch electrical parts creating an electric shock hazard.
  • Do not place the toaster in direct sunlight. Colour fading and discolouration may occur when the toaster is consistently exposed to UV light.
  • Keep the toaster clean. Follow the cleaning instructions provided in this book.

Functions

BEFORE FIRST USE
Before first use, remove any packaging material or promotional labels attached to your toaster.

  1. Place the toaster on a dry, level heat resistant surface and unwrap the power cord from the base of the toaster.

  2. Insert the power plug into a 220-240 volt power outlet and then turn the power on.
    NOTE: When using the toaster for the first time, we suggest toasting on the maximum setting without bread. The toaster may emit a thin smoke or distinct odour on initial use. This is normal and not detrimental to the performance of the toaster .

  3. Place only 1 slice of bread into each of the toasting slots. Ensure the bread slices are not too large or thick to fit the slots. If less than 4 slices are inserted, the usual browning setting may need to be reduced to avoid the toast burning.

  4.  Select the desired browning setting using the browning control dial. Colour settings range from ‘1’ lightest to ‘6’ darkest.
    NOTE: When using the toaster for the first time, we suggest toasting the bread on setting 3 or 4. Varying types of bread and personal preference may require a different browning setting, for example, raisin toast and white light-textured breads may require a lower setting, whilst heavier textured rye breads may require a darker setting.

  5. Press the carriage control lever down until it locks into position. The toasting cycle will automatically commence.
    NOTE: If the toaster is not plugged in and switched on at the power outlet, the carriage control lever will not lock into position.

  6. The toaster stops toasting when it has reached the end of the selected browning cycle. The toast will automatically rise in the slots. The toasting process can be stopped at any time by pressing the CANCEL button.

WARNING

Do not leave unattended when in use as toast may jam or wedge in the bread carriage. Never attempt to extract toast, crumpets or muffins or any other item that has jammed or wedged in the toaster with a knife or any other object, as contact with live elements may not only damage the elements, but can cause electrocution.

‘LIFT & LOOK’™ FEATURE
This feature can be used to check on the progress of the toasting cycle without interrupting it. Simply raise the carriage control lever to check on the browning progress of the toast and lower it down again if you wish to continue to toast.

HIGH LIFT FEATURE
Once the toasting cycle has completed, to remove smaller items such as crumpets and muffins, lift the carriage control level to the HIGH LIFT position, approximately 1cm above the starting position. In the unlikely event that the bread, crumpet or muffins become jammed, switch the power off at the power outlet, then remove the power plug from the power outlet and use the high lift lever to carefully ease the bread out of the toaster, ensuring that you do not damage the self-centring slots or the elements.

‘A BIT MORE’™ SETTING
For additional toasting time or reheating,
use this feature after the toasting cycle has completed if your toast requires a bit more toasting or needs reheating. Once the toast has popped up, lower the carriage control lever back down and then press the A BIT MORE™ button.

NOTE: The ‘A Bit More’™ setting will bypass the normal toasting cycle and toast for approximately 30 seconds when using the toast setting or approximately 15 seconds with the FRUIT BREAD setting.

FROZEN/FRUIT BREAD SETTING

To toast frozen bread (white light surround)
  1. Place the frozen bread into the toasting slots.
  2. Select the browning setting you would normally select if the bread was fresh.
  3. Lower the carriage control lever until it locks into position.
  4. Press the FROZEN/FRUIT BREAD button once and the button will illuminate white.
  5. Once the toasting cycle has finished, the carriage will rise automatically.
  6. Remove the toast.
To toast fruit bread (red light surround)
  1. Place the fruit bread into the toasting slots.
  2. To start the toasting process, press down the carriage control lever until it locks into place.
  3. To select the FRUIT BREAD setting, press the FROZEN/FRUIT BREAD button twice and the button will illuminate red.
  4. Select the desired browning setting by adjusting the BROWNING CONTROL DIAL from setting, ‘1’ (lightest) to ‘6’(darkest).
  5. Once the toasting cycle has finished, the carriage will rise automatically.
  6. Remove the fruit toast.

NOTE: The FROZEN BREAD function and A BIT MORE™ function cannot be operated at the same time.

The toasting and defrosting cycles can be cancelled at any time by pressing the CANCEL button. When the CANCEL button is pressed, the toaster will turn off and automatically raise the toast.

Care, Cleaning & Storage

CARE AND CLEANING

  1. Switch the toaster off at the power outlet and then remove the power plug from the power outlet. Allow the toaster to cool completely before cleaning.
  2. The crumb trays will need to be cleaned regularly to avoid breadcrumbs, dried fruits, crusts etc. accumulating in the bottom of the toaster.
  3. To remove the crumbs from the toaster, slide the crumb trays out from under the toaster carriage by pulling outwards away from the toaster.
  4. Discard the crumbs and wipe trays over with a soft, damp cloth and dry thoroughly.
  5. To remove any additional crumbs that have accumulated in the toasting carriages, turn the toaster upside down over a sink or bin and shake crumbs free.
  6. Ensure crumb trays are dried thoroughly. Place crumb trays back into position by sliding the tray back and push in until completely locked into place.
  7. Wipe the outside of the toaster with a slightly dampened soft cloth and then dry it with a soft dry cloth to dry completely.

NOTE: Do not clean with metal scouring pads. Pieces can break off the pad and touch electrical parts creating an electric shock hazard.

STORAGE
Switch the toaster off at the power outlet and remove the power plug from the power outlet. Allow the toaster to cool completely before storing. Follow the directions for cleaning and store in an upright position on a flat surface on a bench top or in an accessible cupboard. Do not store anything on top of the toaster.
