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
Remove the dust cover from the appliance.
2
Put one or two slices of bread in the toaster (Fig. 3).
3
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).
4
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.
5
When the toast is ready, it pops up and the toaster switches off automatically.
6
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.

petrol or acetone to clean the appliance.
Never immerse the appliance in water nor rinse it under the tap.
