How to Toast
(cont.)
TOASTING TIPS:
• To toast bagels or English muffins, place bread cut-side down.
This will toast the cut side more than the outside. English muffins
may need a darker setting than regular bread to achieve the same
color.
• To toast frozen pastry or waffles, select a light color and toast
directly on oven rack. If pastry has a glaze or frosting, use baking
pan to prevent dripping.
• When toasting, condensation may form on oven door. A conven-
tional toaster is open and allows moisture to escape. A toaster
oven is a closed space and so moisture is slow to escape.
• At the end of the toast cycle, remove toast immediately or the
heat remaining in the toaster oven will continue to toast and dry
out your toast.
• To cancel/stop the toast cycle, turn ON/OFF/Toast Shade
Selector/Timer Knob to O (OFF) position.
