PRODUCT USAGE (CONTINUED)

GETTING STARTED

Before using your Toaster for the first time, check the Extra-Wide Slots and remove any
packing or printed material that might have fallen inside during shipping or handling.
IMPORTANT: To avoid damage to the Toaster, do not probe inside the Toaster Slots with any
metal objects, including utensils.
Plug into an earthed outlet.
Do not remove earth prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire, or
electrical shock.
1.
Tuck the Power Cord into the Channel of the Cord Guide on the bottom of the Toaster so
that it exits from the rear of the Toaster beneath the Crumb Tray.
Plug into an earthed outlet.
NOTE: You may see light smoke the first time you use the Toaster. This is normal. The
smoke is harmless and will soon dissipate.
TOASTING
1.
Insert bread or other food to be toasted into the Slots.
TIP: For even toasting, toast only one bread type and thickness at a time. If toasting
bagels, be sure to press the Bagel Button ( ). See "Toasting Bagels".
NOTE: The age, type, and moisture level of different breads may require different Shade
Settings. For example, dry bread will brown more rapidly than moist bread and will require
a lighter Setting.
2.
Select your desired Shade by raising the Shade Control Lever for darker toasting or
lowering the Lever for lighter toasting.
3.
Press down on the High Lift Lever to start the Toasting Cycle. The toast will pop up
automatically at the end of the Cycle and the Toaster will turn off.
NOTE: If using a Function Button, you must lower the High Lift Lever first before selecting
the function. The LED-Light next to the Function will be lit while the function is in use.
4.
To cancel toasting at any time, press
turn off.
TIP: For smaller items, lift up on the High Lift Lever to raise toast above the top of the
Toaster.

TOASTING BAGELS

Your Toaster features a special Setting for Bagels, ensuring optimal heating time for the best
results. The Heating Elements will adjust to nicely toast the inside of a cut bagel without
burning the outside surface.
1.
Insert bagels as indicated by the Bagel Icon ( ) on top of the Toaster.
2.
With the Shade Control Lever set to your desired Shade, press down on the High Lift
Lever to start the Toasting Cycle.
