NOTES:

• The Auto-Adjusting Bread Guides will automatically center the food for even browning.
• Be sure to check the Bread Selector Dial for desired setting before each use. Having

the correct selection for the food toasted will yield better results.

• To use the Toast Lift, press up on the bread carriage lever to lift food out of the bread

slots. It is a convenient and safe way of retrieving the smallest of toasted items.

USING YOUR TOASTER

1. Set the level of toasting using the

browning control. The higher the

number selected, the darker the toast

will be.

2. Place the bread into the toasting slots.

Only toast single slices of bread in

each slot on 2 slice toasters. Make

Bread selections using the Bread

Selector Dial, then press the Toast

Lever down until it latches. The bread

will be lowered into the toaster and

toasting will begin. The toast lever

will not latch if your toaster is not

connected to a working outlet.

3. When toasting has finished, the Toast

Lever will rise and the toasted bread

can be removed. You can lift the Toast

Lever upwards beyond its rest position

to help you remove the toast.

4. If the toast is not done enough it can

be toasted again. Turn the browning

control to a lower setting and keep a

careful eye on the toast to ensure that

it doesn’t burn.

5. Toasting can be stopped at any time

by pressing the cancel button.

TOASTING TIPS

• Toasting is a combination of drying

and cooking bread. Moisture levels

differ from one bread type to another

so toasting times may vary. Be sure

to use evenly cut slices of bread to

ensure even toasting.

• For slightly dry bread, use a lower

setting than normal.

• For fresh bread or whole wheat bread,

use a higher setting than normal.

• Bread which has a very uneven

surface, such as English Muffins or

Waffles, will require a higher setting.

• Thicker cut pieces of bread (including

bagel) will take longer to toast—

sometimes significantly longer. This

is because more moisture must be

evaporated from the bread before

toasting can occur. Very thick pieces of

bread may require two toasting cycles.

• When toasting raisin or other fruit

breads, remove any loose raisins or

fruit from the surface of the bread

before putting it into your toaster.

This will help prevent fruit pieces from

falling into your toaster or sticking to

the guard wires in the toasting slot.

SINGLE SLICE TOASTING

If you are toasting a single slice of bread,

set the browning control to a lower setting

than normal. By using a lower setting

when toasting a single slice of bread, it will

not be over toasted.

IF YOUR TOASTER JAMS

CAUTION! Never use a knife or any

other utensil or implement to remove

jammed bread. Never insert your

fingers into the bread slots.

1. Switch the toaster off and unplug it.
2. Allow the toaster to completely cool

down.

3. Carefully ease the bread out of the

toaster being careful not to damage

the heating element.

Cleaning Your Toaster

• After use and before cleaning, unplug wall plug and wait for toaster to cool.
• Wipe the outside of toaster with a damp cloth and dry with another cloth or paper

towel. Do not use abrasive cleaners.

CAUTION:

Do not immerse in water or any liquid.

• To avoid damage to toaster heating elements, do not use any pointed or sharp articles

for cleaning the inside of the toaster.

•

CAUTION:

Empty the crumb tray frequently. Crumbs will accumulate in the crumb tray

and could catch fire if not emptied periodically. When the toaster has cooled down
completely, tap the sides of the toaster lightly to dislodge any crumbs caught in the
toaster chamber, remove the crumb tray and empty it. Wipe the tray clean with a damp
cloth or place it in the top rack of your dishwasher for cleaning. Tap sides again to
ensure proper disposal. Return crumb tray back into the toaster before using again.

This appliance has no user serviceable parts. Any servicing beyond that described in the
Cleaning Section should be performed by an Authorized Service Representative only. See
Warranty Section.

GENERAL INFORMATION

Tip:

Your toaster has been designed for optimal toast balance. Some

elements on the inside of the toaster may glow more brightly than others

when in use. This is part of normal toaster operation.

To remove food jammed in the bread slots:

unplug the toaster and

remove the food once the toaster has cooled down.

Do not

place food on top of toaster while it is warming.

WARNING!

Empty the Crumb Tray frequently.
