Before Using For The First Time; Operating Instructions - Russell Hobbs RHT2RET Instructions And Warranty

Before Using For The First Time

1. Remove all packaging materials including those which may be
inside the Toasting Slots or Toasting Lever slot.
2. Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth. Dry thoroughly. Do not use
abrasive cleaners.
3. Do not put the Toaster, cord or plug in water.
4. Be sure the Crumb Tray is pushed all the way into the Toaster and
the Toasting Lever is in the UP position.
5. Unwrap power cord from Cord Storage Area on underside of
Toaster and plug into a 120V AC outlet.
6. Turn the Toast Color Control to the lightest setting.
7. Lower the Toasting Lever until it locks in place. Operate without
bread once or twice to burn off any manufacturing residue. You
may notice a slight amount of smoke; this is normal and will stop
as the heating elements continue to heat.

Operating Instructions

1. Be sure no bread or other objects are inside the Toasting Slot.
Place Toaster on a flat, level, heat resistant surface and plug the
power cord into a 120V AC electrical outlet.
2. Position the Toast Color Control to desired setting. The first time
you toast, it is best to use both Toasting Slots; position the Toast
Color Control to Medium (mid-way between Light and Dark); then
adjust each subsequent toasting to your preference.
3 Remove all protective wrappings from food before placing into
the Toasting Slots. Avoid toasting torn bread slices that may get
lodged in Toasting Slot.
4. Insert the bread into the Toasting Slots. Lower the Toasting Lever
until it locks into place. When the bread is lowered into position,
it will automatically begin to toast.
NOTE: The Toasting Lever will not lock into position unless the
Toaster is plugged in!
NOTE: When toasting a single slice, the bread may be placed in
either Toasting Slot.
NOTE: To prevent a fire hazard, never place bread over the opening
of the Toaster, but always place it into the Slots.
NOTE: DO NOT change the Toast Color Control selection during the
toasting cycle. First press the CANCEL Button; then turn the Toast
Color Control to adjust the browning level. Replace bread and
toast until the desired toast color is achieved.
5. When the toast reaches the selected browning level, it will pop
up automatically.
