• When toasting items with fruit, such as raisin bread or teacakes, remove any loose fruit before toasting (raisins may fall into the appliance and create a fire hazard).
• When toasting bagels, slice the bagel into two equal halves before toasting.
• If you are toasting one slice of bread, set the browning control to a lower setting.
