Using Your Toaster
Never force bread into the toasting slots. Bread should fit easily into the toasting slots.
Never toast slices of bread that have been buttered. Never use your toaster with any food
item that contains sugar, or any product that contains jam or preserves. Don't use bent,
damaged or broken bread in your toaster as it may cause it to jam.
1. Set the level of toasting using the browning control. The higher the number selected,
the darker the toast will be.
2. Place the bread into the toasting slots. You can toast one, two, three or four slices of
bread. Press the loading handle down until it latches. The bread will be lowered into
the toaster and toasting will begin.
The loading handle will not latch if your toaster is not connected to the mains sup-
ply, and may not latch if the browning control is set to its minimum or lowest set-
ting.
3. When toasting has finished, the loading handle will rise and the toasted bread can
be removed. You can lift the loading handle upwards beyond its rest position to help
you remove the toast.
4. If the toast is not done enough it can be toasted again. Turn the browning control to
a lower setting and keep a careful eye on the toast to ensure that it doesn't burn.
5. Toasting can be stopped at any time by pressing the cancel button.
Toasting Tips
• T oasting is a combination of drying and cooking the bread and, because moisture
levels differ from one bread to another, toasting times can vary.
• For slightly dry bread, use a lower setting than normal.
• For fresh bread or whole wheat bread, use a higher setting than normal.
• Bread which has a very uneven surface will require a higher setting.
• T hicker cut pieces of bread (including crumpets) will take longer to toast—
sometimes significantly longer. This is because more moisture must be evaporated
from the bread before toasting can occur. Very thick pieces of bread may require
two toasting cycles.
• W hen toasting raisin or other fruit breads, remove any loose raisins or fruit from
the surface of the bread before putting it into your toaster. This will help prevent
fruit pieces from falling into your toaster or sticking to the guard wires in the
toasting slot.
Single Slice Toasting
If you are toasting a single slice of bread, set the browning control to a lower setting
than normal. Your toaster is designed to heat up to four slices of bread. By using a
lower setting when toasting a single slice of bread, it will not be over toasted.
If your toaster jams
Never use a knife or any other utensil or implement to remove jammed bread. Never insert
your fingers into the bread slots.
1.
Switch the toaster off at the mains supply socket and unplug it.
2.
Allow the toaster to completely cool down.
3.
Carefully ease the bread out of the toaster being careful not to damage the heating
element.
