Toasting Tips
• When toasting only two
slices of bread, place bread
towards front of oven to get
even toasting on top and
bottom.
• To toast bagels, place oven
rack in the low position and
place bagels cut side facing down. This will toast the cut
side more than the outside of the bagel. Set the Toast Color
Knob to desired setting.
• To toast English muffins, place oven rack in the low
position and place English muffins with the split side
facing down. Set Toast Color Knob to the dark setting.
• To toast regular toaster pastries, frozen pastry, or
waffles, place oven rack in the middle position. Select a
light color and toast directly on the oven rack. If pastry has
a glaze of frosting, use baking pan.
• When toasting, condensation may form on the oven door.
The moisture will slowly escape from the enclosed oven.
• The number of slices of bread and the bread freshness
will affect toast color. For example, toasting 4 slices of
bread will require a darker toast color setting than 2 slices
of bread. Adjust the Toast Color Knob based on desired
color and number of slices.
