OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

  • Carefully remove your toaster from its packaging. Keep this packaging in the case of a warranty claim.

Preparation before first use

  • To ensure that any residues left over from the manufacturing process are removed you’ll need to operate your toaster without any bread in it.
  • Start by turning the browning control to the highest setting (6), press the loading lever down fully, and wait for the toasting cycle to complete.
  • Ensure the room is well-ventilated as this process may give off a normal smell.

Toasting bread

  1. Position the toaster and the power cord on a flat, even, and stable heat-resistant surface.
  2. Do not position the appliance near anything flammable.
  3. Plug the power cord into the wall socket.
  4. Place bread slices into the toasting slots (maximum thickness of bread 25mm).
  5. Turn the browning control to the desired setting (1 = light, 6 = dark)
  6. Press the loading lever down fully. The lever will only lock down into place if the main power supply at the wall socket is switched on.
  7. When it reaches the “0” setting, the toast will pop up and the heating elements inside the toaster will automatically turn off.
