HOW TO TOAST BREAD
1. Plug power cord into 120 volt AC outlet.
2. Adjust browning control to desired lightness or darkness. Turn knob to LEFT for
light or to RIGHT for darker toast.
3. Insert bread into toasting slots. Depress bread lever. The wire basket will automati-
cally adjust to the thickness of food, centering it horizontally for even browning.
4. Toast will automatically pop up when selected browning is reached. Unit will shut
off. Additional Hi-Rise feature allows you to lift the lever higher to easily remove the
toast.
5. The Toast-Excel™ feature is automatic every time you use the toaster. Insert
bread/bagel normally and depress lever. Bread guides will automatically center the
toast and the metal flaps at the top will help trap the heat. This helps toast the
bread more effectively, efficiently and consistently.
6. This toaster comes equipped with an automatic safety shut-off feature. If food
becomes jammed or lodged inside the toaster and cannot be removed easily, the
unit will automatically shut off. To remove lodged food, unplug toaster and allow
to cool completely. Turn upside down and shake.
NEVER INSERT FORK OR OTHER
METAL OBJECT INTO TOASTING SLOTS.
Continue to use toaster normally.
7. When not using your toaster, unplug cord from wall outlet.
HOW TO TOAST PASTRIES AND OTHER CONVENIENCE FOODS
Many varieties of fresh or frozen pastries and convenience foods may be heated in your
toaster. Exact settings are difficult to recommend due to personal preference; experiment
to suit individual taste. Set browning control to 10 o‘clock for Fresh Pastry or 2 o‘clock
for Frozen Pastry, and adjust to personal taste.
NOTE:
Some frozen pastries and convenience foods require two cycles for desired result.
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). As
a safety feature, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the
plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit,
contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.
