Using your Toaster
- Before use remove any stickers and wipe the body of your toaster with a damp cloth.
- Ensure that before plugging the toaster into the outlet, the bread carriage lever is in the resting position.
- Plug the cord in 120/127 volt, 60 HZ AC outlet. Position toaster at least 3 inches away from wall or rear of counter.
- Let the first toasting process take place without inserting any bread to preheat the new elements and burn off any dust, which may have accumulated during storage.
- Select the desired level of darkness by turning the “1-7” light/dark knob on the front panel of the toaster to the right for darker toast and to the leftfor lighter toast. Your selection should vary based on the moisture content, thickness of bread, whether fresh or frozen and your darkness preference.
- Next, place bread in slot and depress bread carriage lever downwards until it locks. Carriage lever will not stay down if toaster is not pluggedin. The self-adjusting bread guides will automatically center the bread for even browning.
- After the desired level of darkness has been reached, the bread will pop up automatically andis ready for removal from the slots. The bread carriage will return to its original position and disconnect the elements, ready for the next toasting.
- To remove toast, press up on the bread carriage lever to lift toast out of the bread slots.
- To remove jammed toast, unplug toaster and remove bread once toaster has cooled down. Never insert fingers or metallic utensils into slots.
Useful Hints
- If you wish to cancel the toasting process, press the stop button. The toaster will stop immediately and the food will pop up automatically.
- Most types of breads and pastries can be toasted; such as bagels, tea cakes, thick sliced breads, English muffins, waffles etc. Slices should not, however, be so thick as to cause burning or jamming in the bread slots.
Care and Cleaning
- After use and before cleaning, unplug wall plug and wait for toaster to cool.
- Wipe the outside of toaster with a damp cloth and dry with another cloth or paper towel. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
- To avoid damage to toaster heating elements, do not use any pointed or sharp articles for cleaning the inside of the toaster.
- Attention: Empty the crumb tray frequently. Crumbs will accumulate in the crumb tray and could catch fire if not emptied periodically. Whenthe toaster has cooled down completely, tap the sides of the toaster lightly to dislodge any crumbs caught in the toaster chamber and remove the crumb tray and empty it. Wipe the tray clean witha damp cloth or place it in the top rack of your dishwasher for cleaning. Tap sides again to ensure proper disposal.
