Some notes on browning
Toasting is a combination of cooking and drying the bread. Therefore,
differences in moisture level from one bread to another can result in
varying toasting times.
• For slightly dry bread, use a lower setting than you normally would.
• For very fresh bread or whole wheat bread, use a higher setting than
normal.
• Breads with very uneven surfaces (such as English muffins) will require
a higher toast setting.
• Thickly cut pieces of bread (including bagels) will take longer to toast,
sometimes significantly longer, since more moisture must be evapo-
rated from the bread before toasting can occur. Very thick pieces may
require two cycles.
• When toasting raisin or other fruit breads, remove any loose raisins, etc.
from the surface of the bread before putting into the toaster. This will
help prevent fruit pieces from falling into the toaster or sticking to the
guide wires in the slot.
• Before toasting bagels, slice each bagel into two equal halves.
Single slice toasting
If you are toasting a single slice of bread, set the heat selector to a lighter
setting than you normally would. The toaster is designed to heat the
whole toasting chamber for two slices. By lowering the heat for a single
slice, you won't overtoast.
Frozen waffles, pancakes, french toast and frozen bagels
These breads and pastries should be warmed using the Defrost button.
Toaster pastries
Exercise caution with toaster pastries; the filling can become quite hot
long before the surface of the pastry becomes browned. Never leave
toaster pastries unattended while toasting or warming.

• Uneven toasting is usually due to bread slices of uneven thickness.
• After use, unplug your toaster from the electrical outlet.
