Convenience Food Toasting
There are many varieties of packaged convenience food available today, both frozen and non-frozen (shelf
pastry). Since toaster foods and individual tastes vary, it is difficult to recommend exact browning settings.
However, after a little experimentation you will discover the best setting for your needs. You may also wish to
refer to the heating instructions on the convenience food packaging.
Pastry
For best results, follow the instructions printed on the pastry package. If the package does not have
instructions, position the corresponding LEFT/RIGHT browning selector knob(s) to medium, between (3) and
(4). Some pastries may require a second toasting cycle.
NOTE: Do not use this Toaster for toasting pastry items with runny-type frosting or open fillings.
Non-Frozen Shelf Pastry
Turn the corresponding LEFT/RIGHT browning selector knob(s) to a lighter setting. For thicker convenience
foods, it may be necessary to adjust the browning selector knob to a higher setting and a longer toasting cycle.
Removing Lodged Foods
1. Use the high-lift lever(s) to make it easier to remove smaller toasted items.
2. If, after toasting, a piece of bread or any other toaster food becomes lodged in any of the toasting slots,
unplug the Toaster and allow it to cool.
3. Hold both LEFT and RIGHT toasting levers down. Turn the Toaster upside down and shake the food loose.
IMPORTANT: Never use a fork or sharp-edged utensil to remove toast, because that may damage the
heating element or cause injury.
Important Points
•
Remove all protective wrappings from food before placing into the toasting slot(s).
•
For best results, clean the crumb tray frequently.
•
Different breads require different color settings. Turn the corresponding LEFT/RIGHT browning selector
knob(s) to CANCEL at any time to check toast color.
•
Do not block top opening. Do not place any object over the top opening.
•
Do not toast buttered bread or buttered pita bread. Melted butter will cause fire.
•
When toasting more than one slice of bread, use slices of similar size, thickness and freshness.
•
Stale bread, thin bread or sweet bread products, such as tea cakes and fruit loaf, brown much more quickly
than ordinary bread, so they should be toasted on the lighter settings.
•
Never immerse Toaster, cord or plug in water or other liquid.
•
Never use a fork or sharp-edged utensil to remove toast, because that may damage the heating element or
cause injury.
