BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME:
Unpack the appliance
and remove any labels.
Clean the toaster and its metal warming plate with a
damp cloth. Dry it.
Unroll the electrical cord entirely and plug it in.
Set the browning control button to minimum without
inserting any bread.
Lower the control lever until it is locked down.
Operate the toaster empty once or twice to eliminate
“that new smell“, a slight amount of smoke may be noti-
ced. This is normal because your toaster is new and this
will stop, after a couple of uses.
TOASTING BREAD AND “HIGH LIFT” FUNCTION
With the control lever in the high position, insert the
slice(s) of bread into the toasting slots. You can toast
slices of bread that are 8-32 mm thick - Fig.
Adjust the browning to the desired setting depending on
the type, freshness and the thickness of the bread - Fig.
1 -
Very slightly browned
2 - 3 Lightly browned
4 - 5 Well toasted
6 - 7 Very well toasted
To begin toasting press down the control lever until it
locks into the low position, the bread slices are automa-
tically centred and the toasting begins - Fig.
The toaster automatically stops at the end of the toasting
time. The control lever lifts up automatically at three-
quarters of the lever carrriage and the slices of bread
pop up ready.
Set the browning control at a lower setting if you are not
using the whole capacity of the toaster, ie if you are only
toasting one slice of bread.
After trying out the toaster a few times you will quickly
get to know the correct setting for each type of bread.
TO TOAST SMALL SLICES OF BREAD EASILY -
Fig.
Use the “HIGH-LIFT” bread function by lifting the control
lever when the bread has finished toasting to easily
remove the toast.
▲
STOP/EJECT FUNCTION -
Fig.
You can also cancel the toasting or the reheating cycles
or all other functions at any time by pressing on the
STOP/EJECT button,
(positioned on the right hand
side of the appliance) the bread will pop up or the
reheating will stop.
▲
TOUCH PLUS BUTTON -
Fig.
SPECIAL TOUCH-PLUS BUTTON for an extra bit of
browning.
When the first toasting cycle has finished and the lever
has popped up, if you require a browner degree of toas-
ting, simply put the bread back in the toaster, press the
lever control down a second time and press the
“TOUCH PLUS”
. This gives an extra 30 seconds
of warming and will brown the toast to the next browning
control on the dial to obtain your desired degree of
browning.
DEFROST FUNCTION* -
Fig.
If toasting bread from frozen, place bread in the toasting
slots and adjust the browning control to the desired
position (depending on the type of bread).
Press the lever down and press the “DEFROST” button
. Once the toasting cycle has commenced, the
bread will then be toasted from frozen.
The bread will take a little longer to toast as the toaster
will automatically defrost the bread first before toasting
