Toasting is a combination of drying and cooking the bread. Therefore,
differences in denseness and moisture level from one bread to
another can result in varying toasting times.
For slightly dry bread or thinly sliced bread, use a lighter setting than
you normally would, as it will toast more quickly.
For very fresh bread, thickly sliced bread or whole wheat bread, use a
darker setting than normal. Dense, moist bread may also require a
darker setting.
Breads with very uneven surfaces (such as English muffins) will
require a darker toast setting.
Thickly cut pieces of bread will take longer, since more moisture must
be evaporated from the bread before toasting occurs. Very thick
pieces may require two cycles.
When toasting raisin or other fruit breads and muffins, remove any
loose fruit, etc. from the surface of the bread before placing into the
oven. This will help prevent pieces from falling and baking onto the
crumb tray.
To prevent overtoasting of a single slice, set browning control to a
lighter setting than you normally would.
The Bagel feature adds the appropriate amount of extra time to the
toasting cycle to toast your bagels at the colour level selected with the
touchpad shade control. The Bagel function is designed for the
standard bagel size (3 ounces) (85g). For deli-size bagels (3–6 ounces)
(88g-170g) you may need to increase the darkness setting. The Bagel
function can also be used to toast English muffins, thick-sliced breads,
and thick-sliced specialty Italian or Portuguese breads, which require
longer toasting times than an average slice of white bread.
BAKE
Turn Selector dial to Bake. The Timer and Temperature buttons will
begin flashing.
Setting Temperature
The preset BAKE temperature is 350°F (180 C). To change temperature,
press the Temperature button; the temperature display will start
flashing. Turn the Selector dial to select temperatures from 150°F
(180° C) to 450°F (230 C). To bake at the preset temperature, simply
set the time and press Start/Stop.
Setting Timer
To set baking time, press the Timer button. The 30-minute (0:30) preset
time will start flashing. Turn the Selector dial to set timer for times from
1 minute to 2 hours. To bake for the preset 30 minutes, simply press
Start/Stop.
Start Baking
Press Start/Stop to start heating the oven. The display will read
PREHEATING. When the oven reaches the set temperature, it will beep
and display will read READY. Place food in oven. The timer will begin
counting down. When it reaches zero, the oven will beep and heating
elements will turn off. You may stop baking and turn the heating
elements off at any time by pushing the Start/Stop button.
BROIL
Turn Selector dial to Broil. The Timer button will begin flashing.
Temperature
The preset broil temperature is fixed at 500°F (260 C), so the
Temperature button cannot be activated during Broil. As with
any broiler, only the top heating elements turn on.
