Betty Crocker BC-2605 2-Slice Cool Wall Toaster
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and/or injury to persons, including the following:
- READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY.
- Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.
- To protect against the risk of electric shock, do not put a toaster, cord, or plug in water or other liquid.
- Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
- WARNING: To prevent electric shock unplug from the outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool before putting on or taking off parts and before cleaning the appliance.
- Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions or is dropped or damaged in any manner. Return the appliance to an authorized service facility for examination, repair, or electrical or mechanical adjustment.
- The use of attachments not recommended or sold by the appliance manufacturer may cause fire, electric shock, or injury and void the warranty.
- Do not use outdoors.
- Do not let the cord hang over the edge of the table or counter or touch hot surfaces, including the stove.
- Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner or in a heated oven.
- Do not use the appliance for anything other than its intended use.
- Oversized foods, metal foil packages, or utensils must not be inserted in a toaster as they may cause a fire or electrical shock.
- A fire may occur if the toaster is covered or touching flammable material, including curtains, draperies, walls, etc., when in operation.
- Failure to clean the crumb tray may result in a fire hazard.
- Do not attempt to dislodge food when the toaster is plugged in.
- Do not place pastry items with runny-type frosting or open filling in the toaster.
- To protect against the risk of fire, do not put rice cakes in the toaster.
- To disconnect, turn any control “off”, then remove the plug from the wall outlet.
- Do not twist, kink, or wrap the power cord around the appliance as this may cause the insulation to weaken and split, particularly in the location where it enters the unit.
- Do not leave the appliance unattended while in use.
POWER CORD INSTRUCTIONS
- A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the hazard resulting from entanglement or tripping over a long cord.
- Extension cords may be used if care is exercised. If it is necessary to use an extension cord, it should be positioned so that it does not drape over the counter or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.
- The electrical rating of the extension cord must be the same or more than the wattage of the appliance (the wattage is shown on the rating label located on the underside or back of the appliance).
- Avoid pulling or straining the power cord at the outlet or appliance connections.
- Do not operate the appliance if the power cord is damaged or if the appliance works intermittently or stops working entirely.
POLARIZED PLUG
- Your appliance is equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other).
- To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this plug is intended to fit into 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, please consult a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature by modifying the plug in any way.
Before Your First Use
Carefully unpack The toaster and remove all packaging materials. To remove any dust that may have accumulated during packaging, simply wipe the toaster exterior with a clean, damp cloth. Dry thoroughly. Do not use abrasive cleansers. Do not immerse the Toasor ter, cord, or plug in water or any other liquid.
Know the Parts of Your Toaster
Using Your Toaster
Selecting Toast Colour
- The Shade Selector Dial is located at one end of your Toaster. Simply turn the Dial to the desired toast color, (1) for light toasting, (6) for dark toasting.
- For your first toasting, it is best to position the Shade Selector Dial in the middle (3-5), and then adjust each subsequent toasting to your preference.
Toasting
- Place your Toaster on a flat, dry, level surface. Insert one slice of bread into each slot.
- Press the Toasting Lever located on one end of your Toaster downward until it locks into place. This will lower the bread into position and automatically begin toasting. The toast will pop up when it has reached the selected color. (For best results, allow the toaster to cool for one or two minutes between toasting cycles.)
- The Toaster will be ready to toast again when the toasting lever locks into place when pushed downward.
NOTE:
The Toasting Lever will not lock into place if the toaster is unplugged. - Should you desire to stop the toasting before reaching the selected color, turn the Shade Selector Dial to the Cancel ( ) function, and the toast will pop up.
- When you press the Toasting Lever down at the start of the toasting cycle, or when you use the Cancel Function to raise the toast, you may notice a small flash of light in the toast slot at the end opposite the toasting control. This flash of light caused when the power switch opens and closes is normal with any high-wattage appliance.
Extra Lift Feature
To remove smaller breads and bagels, or items such as crumpets or English muffins, lift the carriage control lever approximately 20mm above the resting position ( ).
Cleaning Your Toaster
Be sure the Toaster is unplugged and completely cooled before cleaning. Wipe the Toaster exterior with a clean, damp cloth. Dry thoroughly. Do not use abrasive cleansers. Do not put a Toaster, or cord, or plug in water or any other liquid. The pull-down Crumb Tray is located on the bottom of your Toaster. Pinch the tab and pull down the crumb tray (see illustration). We recommend emptying crumbs over a sink or waste bin as crumbs will fall when the crumb tray is released. When replacing the crumb tray, make sure it is correctly aligned before securely locking it into place.
Removing Lodged Toast
If a piece of toast becomes lodged in the Toaster. Unplug the Toaster and allow it to cool. Press the Toasting Lever down. Turn the Toaster upside down, and gently shake the toast loose.
CAUTION:
Never use a fork or sharp-edged utensil to remove toast as it may damage the heating element or cause injury.
