Before Your First Use
Carefully unpack the toaster and remove all packaging materials. Select a flat,
heat-resistant, non-flammable surface to place toaster. Do not immerse the
toaster in water or other liquid. To remove any dust that may have accumulated
on the removable parts during packaging, clean the surface with damp cloth and
remove any stickers (except stickers for safety, caution, or warnings). In order to
remove any possible remains from the manufacturing operation, the appliance
should, before being used for the first slices of toast, be heated up to 1 to 2 times
to the highest toasting temperature, without any bread in the toaster slots
(ventilate the room).
Operating Instructions
CAUTION:
All types of bread or bagels can be used for toasting, but the
slices should not be too thin or too thick. The fresh bread and
dark coarse bread requires longer toasting than drier bread.
TOASTING NOTES
Toasting is a combination of cooking and drying the bread; moisture levels differ
from one bread to another, which can result in varying toasting times.
•
For slightly dry bread, use a lower light/dark setting than normal.
•
For fresh bread or whole wheat, use a higher setting than normal.
•
Breads with very uneven surfaces (such as English muffins) will require a
higher light/dark setting.
•
Thickly cut pieces of bread (including bagels) will take longer to toast,
sometimes significantly longer, since more moisture must be evaporated
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 from
the surface of the bread before placing into the toaster. This will help
prevent pieces from falling into the toaster or sticking on the guard wire
in the slot.
•
Before toasting bagels, slice each bagel into two equal halves.
NOTE: During toasting cycle, the user may cancel the cycle by pressing the
‘Cancel’ button at anytime.
