• DO NOT place buttered bread or wrapped food into the Toaster.
• DO NOT toast small-size breads, mini-baguettes, breadsticks, etc.

Notes on the Plug
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not modify the plug in any way.

Notes on the Cord
The provided short power-supply cord (or detachable power-supply cord) should be used to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Always plug directly into a wall outlet/receptacle.

• A short power-supply cord (or detached power-supply cord) is provided to reduce the risk of becoming entangled in or tripping over a long 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.

Electric Power
If the electrical circuit is overloaded with other appliances, your appliance may not operate properly. It should be operated on a separate electrical circuit from other appliances.

Getting To Know Your 2 slice Toaster

Product may vary slightly from illustrations.

Before Using For The First Time

There may be manufacturing residue or oil remaining in the toaster or heating element, which might emit an odor at the time of the first use. This is normal and will not occur after several uses. It is suggested to operate the toaster without bread for first use according to the below steps. Then let the toaster cool down before you start toasting the first slice.

How To Use The Toaster

1. Ensure the toaster is connected to the main power supply.
2. Place one to two slices of bread into the toasting slots and press the loading lever down until it latches. The toaster will heat up automatically and start toasting.

NOTE
The toaster must be connected to the main power supply for the bread carriage to engage and for the toasting cycle to begin

Adjust the browning control to brown the toast to your desired taste. To stop toasting press the CANCEL button at any time. The loading lever will rise automatically when toasting is finished. This toaster is equipped with a high lift lever to help with the removal of smaller items. If the toast is not dark enough, you can toast the bread again. Adjust the browning control to your desired setting and replace the toast. Ensure the toast does not burn while re-toasting.

Browning Control
The browning control enables adjustment of toasting time and has the following settings:

• Reheat – for warming pre-toasted bread
• 1-2 for light toasting
• 3-4 for medium toasting
• 5-6 for dark toasting for warming pre-toasted bread
• 1-2 for light toasting
• 3-4 for medium toasting
• 5-6 for dark toasting

BAGEL FUNCTION
The bagel setting works great for English muffins too!

1. Place one half in each toasting slot with the cut sides facing the center.
2. Set the browning control to the desired setting.
3. Press the loading lever down.
4. Press the BAGEL button. The bagel indicator will light up. Ensure the bagel doesn’t burn.
5. The loading lever will rise automatically when the toasting cycle is complete.

REHEAT FUNCTION
Your toaster can reheat bread if it has cooled too quickly.

1. Replace the bread in the toaster.
2. Set the browning dial to the lowest setting. The arrow on the dial should be positioned to REHEAT.
3. Press the loading lever down.
4. The loading lever will rise automatically when the toasting cycle is complete.

GLUTEN-FREE FUNCTION
Use your Toaster to toast, reheat, or defrost your Gluten-free bread, bagels, and waffles. Gluten-free breads are often denser in quality and require a longer toasting time. The gluten free function adjusts and adds the ideal amount of time to your toasting cycle to ensure precise and even toasting.

Note
The gluten-free function does not remove the gluten from your bread.

1. Place one bread, bagel, or waffle in each toasting slot.
2. Set the browning control to the desired setting.
3. Press the loading lever down.
4. Press the GLUTEN FREE button to toast. The Gluten-free button will light up. Ensure toast/ bagel/ waffle doesn’t burn.
5. The loading lever will rise automatically when the toasting cycle is complete.

FROZEN FUNCTION
Your Toaster can defrost bread and toast it in a single cycle.

1. Place the frozen bread in the toaster.
2. Set the browning control to the desired shade setting.
3. Press the loading lever down.
4. Press the FROZEN button. The defrost indicator will light up.
5. The loading lever will rise automatically when the toasting cycle is complete.

CANCEL FUNCTION
The CANCEL button can be pressed at any time during toasting to interrupt the toasting cycle.

CAUTION

1. Remove all protective wrapping before using the toaster.
2. If the toaster starts to smoke, press CANCEL to stop toasting immediately.
3. Do not toast food with runny ingredients.
4. Never attempt to remove bread jammed in the slots without first unplugging the toaster from the electrical outlet. Be sure not to damage the internal mechanism or heating elements when removing bread.
5. The bread slot is to be used for toasting regular bread slices only. Do not use the toaster to toast irregularly shaped bread as it may become lodged in the toaster.

HIGH LIFT LEVER
Allows the loading lever to be raised further for easier access to smaller breads. This ensures smaller pieces of bread and bagels can be removed easily.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

1. Disconnect the toaster from the outlet before cleaning.
2. Wipe the outside with a soft dry cloth after the toaster cools down. Never use metal polish.
3. Pull out the crumb tray on the bottom of the toaster and empty it. If the toaster is used frequently, accumulated bread crumbs should be removed at least once a week. Make sure the crumb tray is inserted correctly into the toaster and completely closed before using the toaster again.
4. The power cord may be wound under the bottom of the toaster when not in use or for storage.
5. This appliance requires little maintenance. Do not try to repair it yourself. Any servicing requiring disassembly must be performed by a qualified appliance repair technician.
