• Toasting is a combination of drying and
cooking the bread and, because moisture
levels differ from one bread to another,
toasting times can vary.
• 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 will
require a higher setting.
• Thicker cut pieces of bread (including
crumpets) 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.
• If your bread jams in the toaster, switch
power off, remove the plug from the power
outlet and ease the bread out of the
toaster.
• Ensure muffins or bagels are cut into even
halves and fit freely into the bread slot.
Do not force them into the toaster.
Single slice toasting
• If toasting 1 slice it is recommended that
you use a lower toaster setting to achieve
your required browning and to prevent
burning.
WARNING: Never attempt to extract jammed
toast, muffins, bagels or crumpets with a knife
or any other metal object, as contact with the
live element may cause electrocution.
Toasting Tips
Care and Cleaning
Always turn the power OFF and remove the
plug from the power outlet after use and
before cleaning your toaster.
To clean the exterior
The surface of the Toaster may be wiped over
with a damp cloth and polished with a soft
dry cloth. Take care not to knock or damage
the paintwork, as this may result in areas
where the finish does not retain its original
character. Clean the exterior of the product
by wiping with a soft, lint-free damp cloth.
CAUTION: Do not use any polishing agents,
chemicals, steelwool or abrasive cleaning
products to clean the outside of the kettle as
these can damage the appearance.
Removable Crumb Tray
To remove the crumbs, simply pull tray out,
empty and place it back in the toaster.
Important: Clean the crumb tray regularly.
Do not allow crumbs to accumulate, as they
may cause a potential fire hazard.
To clean the toaster interior
Clean inside the toaster regularly. To do this,
unplug the appliance, turn it upside down over
the sink and gently shake all the crumbs out.
