• Operate the appliance on a well accessible, stable, level, dry, and
suitable large table or counter that is resistant against heat.
• Always keep the appliance and the table or counter clean and dry,
and wipe off spilled liquids immediately. Do not place any clothes or
tissue or other foreign objects under or on the appliance during ope-
ration, to avoid risk of fire, electric shock and overheating. Do not
place any food or dishes directly on top of the bread slots to avoid
overheating. Always use the bun warmer for heating large pieces. Do
not place the appliance over a power cord or on any surfaces sensi-
tive to heat or moisture, or near the edge of the table or counter, or
on wet or inclined surfaces.
• During operation keep the appliance in an appropriate distance of at
least 20 cm on each side to the edge of the working space. Keep the
appliance in a distance of at least 50 cm to furniture, walls, boards,
curtains, and any inflammable objects to avoid damage due to fire,
heat and condensate. Do not operate the appliance under over han-
ging boards or drop lights.

Bread may burn. Therefore toasters must not be used near or below
curtains and other combustible materials, such as curtains.
• To avoid risk of fire: Do not place any inflammable objects or inflam-
mable liquids (e.g. high-proof alcoholic drinks) directly near or on the
appliance during operation.
• Do not insert oversized foods (11 x 11 cm, thickness 2.5 cm at the
maximum). However, do not insert bread slices that are too small, too
thin, or broken (at least 8.5 cm in height and 0.5 cm thick). Do not
insert more than 1 bread slice at the same time in each bread slot,
as this may cause risk of overheating, fire, and electric shock. Do not
put any runny or dripping food on or in the toaster.

utensils) in the bread slots, with the appliance connected to the power
supply and/or still hot. Do not use any hard, sharp or edged objects
(e.g. knives, forks) with the appliance.
• During operation and shortly thereafter, hot steam could escape from
the bread slots. Do not hold any parts of your body or any delicate
objects over the appliance during operation. When taking out your
bread slices, always ensure not to get scalded as the bread slices will
be hot.
