SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY
POLARIZED PLUG
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade wider than the other). As a
safety feature to reduce the risk of electrical shock, this plug is intended
to fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in
the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified
electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature or modify the plugin
anyway. If the plug fits loosely into the AC outlet or if the AC outlet feels
warm do not use that outlet.
POWER CORD INSTRUCTIONS:
A short power-supply cord or detachable power-supply cord is provided to reduce risks resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Longer detachable power-supply cords or extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use. If a long detachable power- supply cord or extension cord is used:
- The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance;
- The cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally; and
- If the appliance is of the grounded type, the cord set or extension cord should be a grounding-type 3-wire cord.
Do not pull, twist, or otherwise abuse the power cord.
NOTICES:
- Some countertop and table surfaces are not designed to withstand the prolonged heat generated by certain appliances. Do not set the heated unit on a finished wood table. We recommend placing a hot pad or trivet under your toaster to prevent possible damage to the surface.
- During initial use of this appliance, some slight smoke and/or odor may be detected. This is normal with many heating appliances and will not recur after a few uses.
Learning About Your Toaster
- Bread slots
- Toast Lift Lever
- Bread Selector Dial
- Browning control
- Cancel button
- Frozen button
- Gluten-Free button
- Crumb tray (at rear)
BREAD SELECTOR DIAL
The Bread Selector Dial has 5 preset cycles that adjust the toasting time for
greater toast results. Each preset has been calculated to optimally toast each
food type. See Toasting Tips for more information on toasting different bread
types.
BROWNING CONTROL
The Browning control regulates how much the bread is toasted—in other
words, the color of the toast. Lower settings produce lighter toast and higher
settings produce darker toast.
When setting the browning control, remember that dry or thin food will toast
quicker and require a lower setting. Moist or thick food will require a higher
setting.
FROZEN BREAD BUTTON
The Frozen bread button allows you to toast bread straight from the freezer.
Insert the bread into your toaster and make your Bread and Browning Control
selections. Then press the toast lever down and press the Frozen button. Once
pressed, the button will illuminate to indicate selection has been made. Your
toaster will extend the toasting time for each Bread Selection to allow the
food to defrost.
NOTE: If Waffle is chosen on Bread Selector Dial, the Frozen cycle will
automatically be engaged. If toasting room temperature Waffles, turn off the
Frozen cycle by pressing a button when illuminated.
GLUTEN-FREE BUTTON
The Gluten-Free button extends the cycle time for each Bread Selection to
accommodate Gluten-Free foods. Insert the bread into your toaster and make
your
Bread and Browning Control Selections. Then press the toast lever down and
press the Gluten-Free button. Once pressed, the button will illuminate to
indicate selection has been made.
NOTE: Gluten Free can be activated with the Frozen button for Gluten Free
Frozen Foods.
CANCEL BUTTON
The toasting process can be stopped at any time by pressing the cancel
button. The cycle will stop and the food will pop up immediately.
TOAST LIFT LEVER
The Toast Lift Lever allows the use of the loading handle to help you
remove the toast. When toasting has finished, lift the loading handle upwards
from its rest position to raise the toast and make it easier to remove.
BEFORE FIRST USE
CAUTION! Never force bread into the toasting slots. Bread should fit
easily into the toasting slots. Never toast slices of bread that have been
buttered. Take extra care when toasting items that contain sugar, jam, or
preserves, as there is a risk of the ingredients leaking into the toaster,
causing overheating. Don’t use bent, damaged, or broken bread in your toaster
as it may cause it to jam.
Carefully remove your toaster from its box. Remove all packaging from inside
the toasting slots.
Position your toaster on a stable, secure, dry, and level work surface away
from the edge. Bread may burn therefore do not use the appliance near or below
combustible materials such as curtains. Never use the toaster below wall
cupboards or shelves. Position toaster at least 3 inches away from the wall or
rear of the counter.
Plug the cord into a 120 volt, 60 Hz AC outlet. Connect the plug to a suitable
power outlet and make sure that the power cord does not overhang the work
surface.
When you first use your toaster, there may be a slight odor as the heating
elements warm up for the first time. This is quite normal and not a cause for
concern. To remove the odor, simply operate your toaster for the first time
without any bread in it.
USING YOUR TOASTER
- Set the level of toasting using the browning control. The higher the number selected, the darker the toast will be.
- Place the bread into the toasting slots. Only toast single slices of bread in each slot on 2 slice toasters. Make Bread selections using the Bread Selector Dial, then press the Toast Lever down until it latches. The bread will be lowered into the toaster and toasting will begin. The toast lever will not latch if your toaster is not connected to a working outlet.
- When toasting has finished, the Toast Lever will rise and the toasted bread can be removed. You can lift the Toast Lever upwards beyond its rest position to help you remove the toast.
- If the toast is not done enough it can be toasted again. Turn the browning control to a lower setting and keep a careful eye on the toast to ensure that it doesn’t burn.
- Toasting can be stopped at any time by pressing the cancel button.
TOASTING TIPS
- Toasting is a combination of drying and cooking bread. Moisture levels differ from one bread type to another so toasting times may vary. Be sure to use evenly cut slices of bread to ensure even toasting.
- 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, such as English Muffins or Waffles, will require a higher setting.
- Thicker cut pieces of bread (including bagel) 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 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.
SINGLE SLICE TOASTING
If you are toasting a single slice of bread, set the browning control to a
lower setting than normal. By using a lower setting when toasting a single
slice of bread, it will not be over toasted.
IF YOUR TOASTER JAMS
CAUTION! Never use a knife or any other utensil or implement to remove jammed bread. Never insert your fingers into the bread slots.
- Switch the toaster off and unplug it.
- Allow the toaster to completely cool down.
- Carefully ease the bread out of the toaster being careful not to damage the heating element.
NOTES:
• The Auto-Adjusting Bread Guides will automatically center the food for even
browning.
• Be sure to check the Bread Selector Dial for the desired setting before each
use. Having the correct selection for the food toasted will yield better
results.
• To use the Toast Lift, press up on the bread carriage lever to lift food out
of the bread slots. It is a convenient and safe way of retrieving the smallest
of toasted items.
GENERAL INFORMATION
Tip: Your toaster has been designed for optimal toast balance. Some
elements on the inside of the toaster may glow more brightly than others when
in use. This is part of a normal toaster operation.
To remove food jammed in the bread slots: unplug the toaster and remove
the food once the toaster has cooled down. Do not place food on top of the
toaster while it is warming.
WARNING! Empty the Crumb Tray frequently. Crumbs will accumulate in the
Crumb Tray and could catch fire if not emptied periodically.
Cleaning Your Toaster
-
After use and before cleaning, unplug the wall plug and wait for the toaster to cool.
-
Wipe the outside of the toaster with a damp cloth and dry with another cloth or paper towel. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
CAUTION: Do not immerse in water or any liquid. -
To avoid damage to toaster heating elements, do not use any pointed or sharp articles for cleaning the inside of the toaster.
-
CAUTION: Empty the crumb tray frequently. Crumbs will accumulate in the crumb tray and could catch fire if not emptied periodically. When the toaster has cooled down completely, tap the sides of the toaster lightly to dislodge any crumbs caught in the toaster chamber, remove the crumb tray and empty it. Wipe the tray clean with a damp cloth or place it in the top rack of your dishwasher for cleaning. Tap sides again to ensure proper disposal. Return crumb tray back into the toaster before using again.
This appliance has no user-serviceable parts. Any servicing beyond that described in the Cleaning Section should be performed by an Authorized Service representative only. See Warranty Section.
