USE AND CARE

Unwind the power cord. Check that the crumb tray is in place and that there is nothing
in the toaster slots. Plug power cord into the wall outlet.
1. Insert slice(s) of bread.
Be sure that the carriage is in the up position.
2. Select bread type.
3. Select browning control.
Slide lever to desired shade:
Setting Color
1–2 light
3–5 medium
6–7 dark
Note: Use controls and carriage lever on the left to toast items
in the left slots.
Use controls and carriage lever on the right to toast items
in the right slots.
4. To begin toasting
Press the carriage lever until it locks into the down position.
To stop cycle
When the toasting cycle is finished, the toast will be raised. If you wish to stop
the cycle before it is finished, simply push the Cancel button. After use, unplug the
toaster from the electrical outlet.
Some notes on browning:
Toasting is a combination of cooking and drying of the bread. Therefore,
differences in moisture level from one bread to another can result in varying
toasting times.
• For slightly dry bread, use a lower setting than you normally would.
• For very fresh bread or whole wheat bread, use a higher setting than normal.
• Breads with very uneven surfaces (such as English muffins) will require a higher
toast setting.
• Thickly cut pieces of bread will take longer to toast, sometimes significantly
longer, since more moisture must be evaporated from the bread before toasting
can occur. Very thick pieces may require two cycles.
• When toasting raisin or other fruit breads, remove any loose raisins, etc., from
the surface of the bread before placing into the toaster. This will help prevent
fruit pieces from falling into the toaster or sticking on the guide wires in the slots.
• Before toasting bagels, slice each bagel into two equal halves.
Bagel
This toaster reduces heat on one side of the toasting slot for bagels. This toasts the cut
side of the bagel slightly more than the other side.
An embossed icon ( ◗ ) located on the top of the toaster shows you
the right way to insert your bagel. (The cut side should always face
away from the center of the pair of toasting slots.)
Frozen waffles, pancakes, French toast and bagels
These items should be warmed before toasting, using the Defrost function.
Select bread type and then your preferred browning shade. Press carriage lever
and then press Defrost. For example, when toasting a frozen bagel, select Bagel,
and then select the browning level, press carriage lever and Defrost.
Toaster pastries
Exercise caution with toaster pastries; the filling can become quite hot, long before the
surface of the pastry becomes browned. Never leave toaster pastries unattended while
toasting or warming.
Tips
• Never force foods into the toasting slots. Foods should fit freely between the
guide wires.
• Do not place buttered breads in the toaster, as this could create a fire hazard.
• Uneven toasting is usually due to bread slices of uneven thickness.
• After use, unplug your toaster from the electrical outlet.
