6. Turn the browning selector knob to (1), the lightest setting.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

• Make sure crumb tray is pushed all the way into the back of the toaster and the loading lever is in the UP position.
• Make sure no bread or other objects are inside the toasting slots. Place toaster on a flat, level, heat resistant surface.
• Plug the power cord into a 120AC electrical outlet.
• Position the browning selector knob to desired setting. To test toasting times for browning, it is best to position the browning selector knob between (3) and (4) medium; then adjust each subsequent toasting to your preference.
• Remove all protective wrappings from food before placing into the toasting slot(s).
• Insert bread into the toasting slot(s). Lower the loading lever until locked into place. The automatic guides will then center and hold the food upright for uniform side-to-side toasting. When the bread is lowered into position, toasting will begin.
  NOTE: When toasting a single slice, the bread may be placed in either toasting slot. To prevent a fire hazard, never place bread over the opening of the toaster, always place bread into the slots.
  DO NOT change the browning selector knob selection during the toasting cycle. First press the CANCEL button; then turn the browning selector knob to adjust the browning level. Lower the loading lever again and continue toasting until the desired toast color is achieved.
• When the toast reaches the selected browning level, it will pop up automatically.
• If needed, move the loading/remove assist lever slowly upward to safely remove the food.
  
  Never use a fork or sharp-edged utensil to remove toast, because that may damage the heating element or cause personal injury.
• Remove bread from toasting slot(s), use care when removing bread as the bread and the top of the Toaster will still be hot.
• To interrupt toasting, press the CANCEL button.
• Unplug cord from wall outlet when not in use.

CARE AND CLEANING

The following routine maintenance is recommended for your toaster if used on a regular basis:

1. Unplug toaster and let cool.
2. Slide out crumb tray, empty crumbs and wipe with a clean cloth after every use to prevent the hazard of fire. Reinsert crumb tray.
3. Wipe outside with a damp clean cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
4. Inspect unit, cord and plug for any visible damage.

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

HOT SURFACES: This appliance generates heat and escaping steam during use. When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed to prevent the risk of burns, fires, or other injury to persons or damage to property, including the following:

• Read and retain all instructions before using this toaster.
• A person who has not read and understood all operating, toasting, and safety instructions is not qualified to operate this appliance. All users of this appliance must read and understand this Instruction Manual before operating or cleaning this appliance.
• Close supervision is always required when using this appliance with or near children.
• To protect against the risk of electric shock, do not immerse toaster in water or other liquid. If this appliance falls or accidentally becomes immersed in water, unplug it from the wall outlet immediately. Do not reach into the water!
• When using toaster, provide adequate air space above and on all sides for air circulation. Do not operate this appliance while it is touching or near curtains, wall coverings, clothing, dishtowels or other flammable materials.

If this appliance begins to malfunction during use, immediately press the CANCEL button and unplug the cord. Do not use or attempt to repair a malfunctioning appliance yourself.
• The cord to this appliance should only be plugged into a 120V AC electrical wall outlet.
• The cord to this appliance should not be in an unstable position or where it could be pulled on by children or accidentally tripped over.
• Place toaster on a hard, flat surface only. Do not place it near a flame or heat or on a soft surface (such as carpet). Avoid placing it where it may tip over during use. Dropping the toaster could cause it to malfunction.
• Always unplug toaster before cleaning or when it is not in use.
• Do not use toaster for other than intended use.

• Do not use toaster outdoors, or when standing in a damp area.

HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY
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 fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not modify the plug in any way to defeat this safety feature.
The length of this cord was selected to reduce tripping or entanglement hazards. If the use of an extension cord becomes necessary, an approved extension cord may be used. The electrical rating of the extension cord must be equal or greater than the rating of the appliance. If an extension cord is used it should not be placed in an unstable position or where it could be pulled on by children or accidentally tripped over.
