TOASTING TIPS
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 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 setting.
Thickly cut pieces of bread (including bagels) will take longer to toast. 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 to prevent pieces falling into the toaster or
sticking on the guard wire in the slot.
Before toasting bagels, slice each bagel into two equal halves.
If you are toasting a single slice of bread, select a lighter setting than normal to avoid
over toasting. The toaster is designed to heat the whole toasting chamber for two slices.
Frozen breads, i.e. waffles and bagels should be warmed using the defrost button.
Exercise caution when toasting pastries. The filling can become quite hot, long before
the surface of the pastry becomes brown.
CARE AND CLEANING
Unplug the toaster from the power outlet and allow to cool before cleaning.
Do not use abrasive cleansers. Simply wipe the exterior with a clean damp cloth and dry
thoroughly. Apply any cleaning agent to a cloth, not directly onto the toaster.
To remove crumbs slide out the crumb tray and discard crumbs. Wipe clean and replace.
Never operate the toaster without the crumb tray in place.
To remove any pieces of bread remaining in the toaster, turn the toaster upside down
and shake gently. Never insert any hard or sharp instrument into the slots as this could
damage the toaster and cause a safety hazard.
Never wrap the cord around the outside of the toaster, use the cord storage cleats on the
underside of the toaster.
