Dash DST200 - SMARTSTORE 2-SLICE TOASTER Manual

Parts & features

BEFORE FIRST USE

• Remove all packaging material and stickers from your Toaster.
• Clean the appliance and all of its components prior to use.
• Make sure loose objects have not fallen inside the Toaster.
• In order to eliminate any manufacturing residues, press the Lever down without bread and set the Browning Dial to high. The appliance may give off some smoke while heating, which is perfectly normal.

Using your Smartstore 2-Slice Toaster

1. Place the Toaster on a dry, stable surface and plug it in. Remove the Lid (photo A).
   

NOTE: When the Lid is on theToaster, it triggers the Safety Switch so that the Toaster cannot power on. In order to use the Toaster, the Lid must be removed.

NOTE: Never insert your hands into the Toaster to remove food. Never use metal utensils to remove food from the Toaster.

TOASTING A BAGEL

1. When toasting a bagel, insert the bagel so that the flat edges face outward. This allows the inside of the bagel to toast without overcooking the outside (photo A).
   
2. Press the Lever down, then press the Bagel Button to begin toasting (photo B). An indicator light will illuminate to show that the button has been selected. If needed, press the Cancel or +15 Seconds Buttons at any time during cooking.
   

Tips & tricks

• Use the Warm Function to reheat or defrost bread, bagels or waffles.
• If the bread is too small to be removed from the Toasting Slot, simply lift the Lever to raise the carriage to its uppermost position and then remove the toasted bread. If you still cannot remove the bread, unplug your Toaster and use non-metal, heat-resistant tongs to remove the bread from the Toasting Slot.
• Do NOT touch the metal parts as they will be hot!
• For pop tarts or frozen waffles, toast as directed.
• ONLY toast food that is meant to be toasted in a slot toaster.
• If the Toaster jams, the bread might be too thick. Remove the bread from the Toaster and slice it thinly.
  

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE

• Always unplug the appliance after use and allow it to cool completely before cleaning or storing.
• Do not use abrasive scrubbers, sponges, or chemical cleaners to clean your appliance as this may damage it.
• DO NOT submerge the Toaster in water. Use a damp cloth to wipe down the exterior of the Toaster.
• The Lid is top-rack dishwasher safe and can be cleaned in warm, soapy water.
• Make sure the Lid is dry, and the Toaster has cooled before placing the Lid on the Toaster.
• Use the cord storage on the Base to wrap the cord before storing your Toaster.
  

CLEANING THE CRUMB TRAY

• Remove the Crumb Tray by sliding it out from the bottom of the Toaster.
• Wash the Tray with warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly before returning the Tray to the Toaster.

Important Safeguards

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS: PLEASE READ AND SAVE THIS INSTRUCTION AND CARE MANUAL.

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should be followed, including:

• Remove all bags and packaging from the appliance prior to use.
• Never leave the Toaster unattended while in use.
• 
  Hot surfaces. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.
• Close supervision is necessary when the appliance is used by or near children.
• Do not operate this appliance with a damaged cord, damaged plug, after the appliance malfunctions, is dropped or damaged in any manner. Return your Toaster to the nearest authorized service facility for examination, repair, or adjustment.
• Do not place the appliance on or near a hot gas burner, hot electric burner, or in a heated oven.
• When using extension cords, make sure the marked electrical rating is at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance.
• To protect against electric shock, do not immerse the appliance, plug, or cord in water or any other liquid.
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge unless they are provided with supervision and instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
• Do not place utensils, fingers, or other foreign objects inside the Toaster while in use, as this may result in fire, electric shock, or injury.
• Do not use the appliance for anything other than its intended use. For household use only.
• Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool before putting on or taking off parts.
• Do not let the cord hang over the edge of tables or counters.
• Do not attempt to dislodge food when the Toaster is plugged in. Unplug and allow the appliance to cool down completely before proceeding.
• Do not use attachments that are not recommended by the appliance manufacturer, as this may result in fire, electric shock, or personal injury.
• Do not let the power cord touch hot surfaces, as the cord may become damaged by the heat.
• Do not use the appliance for defrosting food other than bread, bagels and waffles.
• Do not place wet foods inside the Toaster.
• Oversized foods, utensils, or metal foil packages must not be inserted into the Toaster as this may result in fire or electric shock.
• Do not place food in the Toaster that has been covered with butter, jelly, or other condiments as this may result in fire, smoke, or jamming of the appliance.
• A fire may occur if the Toaster is covered by or touching flammable materials, such as curtains, draperies or walls, and the like, when in operation.
• StoreBound shall not accept liability for damages caused by improper use of the appliance.
• This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not completely fit in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.
• A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. An extension cord may be used if care is exercised in its use. If an extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance. The extension cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the counter top or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally. If the appliance is of the grounded type, the cord set or extension cord should be a grounding-type 3-wire cord.
• Do not use outdoors.
• To disconnect, turn any control to "off," then remove the plug from the wall outlet.
• 
  To prevent electric shock, unplug before cleaning.
• When heating toaster pastries, always use the lightest toast color setting.
