Using Your Toaster; Before First Use - KitchenAid KMT2203CA Use & Care Manual

Parts and Features
Controls
Keep Warm
If the food is not removed within 45 seconds
of the end of a cycle, the toaster will
automatically lower the food and activate a
"Keep Warm" cycle using low heat for up to
3 minutes. The KEEP WARM indicator will
light while this cycle is active. You can cancel
this cycle at any time by pressing TOAST/
CANCEL.
Shade Control & Countdown Timer
Precisely sets the desired brownness level.
Indicator lights show the setting at a glance.
During toasting, lights on the shade setting
bar will blink to indicate time left in the
toasting cycle.
Bagel
Your toaster features a special setting for
toasting bagels, ensuring optimal heat
and time for the best results. The heating
elements will adjust to nicely toast the inside
of a cut bagel without burning the bagel's
outside surface.

Using Your Toaster

Before First Use

Before using your toaster, check the
extra-wide slots and remove any packing
or printed material that might have fallen
inside during shipping or handling. Do not
probe inside the toaster with a metal object.
You may see light smoke the first time you
use the toaster. This is normal. The smoke is
harmless and will soon disappear.
Frozen
Your toaster features a Frozen mode for
gently defrosting frozen bread before
toasting. Use Frozen for frozen foods only.
A Little Longer
If you have a preferred brownness setting
but would like to toast something "a little
longer", you can do so at the touch of a
button, without changing your favorite
setting.
Toast/Cancel
This is an automatic toaster. As soon as
bread is placed in either slot it will begin
to lower and toasting will begin using the
selected settings. Some food may be too
light to trigger automatic toasting. If the food
does not begin to drop after 3 seconds press
TOAST/CANCEL to start the cycle manually.
Press again to cancel a toasting cycle already
in process, or to end a Keep Warm cycle.
