Toasting - Hints & Tips
• For slightly dry bread, use a lower setting than you normally would.
• For very fresh or whole wheat bread, use a higher setting than normal.
• Breads with very uneven surfaces will require a higher toast setting.
hick cut pieces of bread (including bagels) will take longer to toast,
T
sometimes significantly longer, since more moisture must be evaporated
from the bread before toasting can begin. Very thick pieces may even
require 2 cycles.
• Sweet bread products e.g. tea cakes, fruit loaf etc. brown more quickly
than ordinary bread, so it is best to use a lower setting.
• When toasting raisin or other fruit breads, remove any loose raisins etc.
from the surface of the bread before toasting. This will help to prevent
fruit pieces from falling into the toaster or sticking to the guide wires in
the slot.
• If you are toasting a single slice of bread, set the browning setting at
a lower level than normal. The toaster is designed to heat the whole
toasting chamber, so by lowering the heat for a single slice, you will not
over toast.
• It is possible to use the toaster for toasting pastries. You should only use
pastries which are specifically designed for use with a toasting, and you
should always follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer of
the pastry. Take extra care when toasting pastries. The filling can become
very hot long before the surface of the pastry becomes browned. Never
leave toaster pastries unattended while toasting or warming.

Crumb Trays

The toaster is equipped with removable crumb trays to collect crumbs
during toasting. We recommend that the crumb trays are removed and
emptied on a regular basis.
To empty, locate the trays which are fitted in the base of the toaster. They
can be accessed from the rear of the toaster.
Pull the cover on each tray, and the tray(s) will slide out. Discard the
crumbs and replace by sliding back into position. Never operate the toaster
without the crumb tray in place.
