Tips and Troubleshooting

• To remove food that becomes lodged in food slots, disconnect
from outlet and allow toaster to cool. Turn toaster upside down
and shake. Do not use fork or other utensil that could damage
heating element or result in risk of fire or electrical shock.
• When toasting a single slice, you may notice variations in bread
color from side to side.
• Setting 9 is the darkest shade of toast color. If a darker shade is
desired, reset at 5. Watch closely and toast for a second cycle.
