CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

1 After use and before cleaning, switch off at the mains, remove the
plug from the wall socket and wait for the toaster to cool.
2 Wipe the outside of the toaster with a damp cloth only and dry
with another cloth or tissue.
• NEVER use metal polish or coarse scouring agents and never
immerse your appliance in any sort of liquid.
• NEVER use any pointed or sharp articles for cleaning the inside,
otherwise the heating element will be damaged.
• NEVER use a brush or push your fingers or metal objects down
the slots.
CAUTION: to prevent damage to the appliance do not use
alkaline cleaning agents when cleaning, use a soft cloth and a
mild detergent.
Hints and tips
• In order to achieve uniform browning, we recommend you wait a
minimum of 30 seconds between each toasting, so that the
control can be automatically reset.
• If toasting one slice only, you may need to adjust the browning
control to a slightly lower setting.
• Please note: you will also notice a slight variation in toast colour
on one side of a single slice.
• Stale bread toasts more rapidly than fresh bread. Therefore, the
browning control should be set at a lower setting than usual.
• All sorts of bread can be used, as well as teacakes, small rolls etc.
However, slices should not be so thick as to cause burning or
jamming within the bread slots.
• If the bread in your toaster becomes jammed, disconnect your
toaster at the socket, allow it to cool, then remove the bread.
• When toasting 2 slices, it is recommended they are of equal size
and freshness.
• Allow the toaster to cool fully before putting away.
