Electromagnetic fields (EMF)
This Philips appliance complies with all standards regarding electromagnetic
fields (EMF). If handled properly and according to the instructions in this
user manual, the appliance is safe to use based on scientific evidence
available today.
Before first use
1
Remove any stickers and wipe the body of the toaster with a damp
cloth.
2
Let the appliance complete a few toasting cycles without slices of
bread on the highest browning setting in a properly ventilated room.
,
This burns off any dust that may have accumulated on the heating
elements and prevents unpleasant smells during toasting.
Using the appliance
1
Put the appliance on a stable and flat surface, away from curtains and
other combustible materials. Put the plug in the wall socket.
2
To adjust the length of the cord, wind part of it round the brackets in
the base of the appliance (Fig. 2).
Toasting bread
Never let the toaster operate unattended.
1
Put one or two slices of bread in the toaster (Fig. 3).
2
Set the desired browning setting (Fig. 4).
Set a low setting (1-2) for lightly toasted bread and a high setting (5-7) for
darkly toasted bread. To toast frozen bread, select a setting in the defrost
range
Ñ
(from setting 6 to setting 7, depending on the desired browning
degree).
3
Push down the toasting lever to switch on the appliance (Fig. 5).
The toasting lever only stays down if the appliance is connected to the
mains.
The metal parts of the toaster become hot during toasting. Be careful not
to touch them.
Note: You can stop the toasting process and pop up the bread at any time
by pressing the STOP button on the side of the toaster.
4
When the toast is ready, it pops up and the toaster switches off
automatically.
5
Remove the toasted bread. To remove smaller items, move the
toasting lever upwards a little further.
Note: If bread gets stuck inside the toaster, remove the plug from the wall
socket, let the appliance cool down completely and carefully remove the bread
from the toaster. Do not use a knife or another sharp metal tool to do this and
do not touch the metal internal parts of the toaster.
Warming up rolls and croissants
1
Place the warming rack on top of the toaster (Fig. 6).
Never put the rolls to be warmed up directly on top of the toaster
without the warming rack to avoid damage to the toaster.
2
Put the rolls or croissants on top of the warming rack.
Do not warm up more than 2 items at a time.
3
Turn the browning control to the warming setting (1) and push down
the toasting lever (2) (Fig. 7).
If you want to warm the rolls or croissants on both sides, turn them after
the toaster has switched itself off. Leave the browning control on the
warming setting and push down the toasting lever to switch on the toaster
again.

such as petrol or acetone to clean the appliance.
Never immerse the appliance in water nor rinse it under the tap.
1
Unplug the appliance and let it cool down.
2
