1. I am pressing the lever down, but it won’t stay down. What am
I doing wrong?

lever will not stay down unless the cord is plugged in.
2. What should I do if bread or other food items accidentally become
jammed in the toaster?
Press the “Cancel” button if the toaster is still
in operation. Carefully unplug the toaster from the electrical outlet. Allow
the toaster to cool completely. Remove the lodged food being careful not to
damage the heating elements or scratch the surface of the toaster.
3. I see a small spark inside my toaster when the lever disengages?
This is completely normal and will not harm you or the toaster. This is caused by
the main power switch turning off.
4. Why do some types of bread brown more than others when using
the same shade selection?
This could be due to a several factors. The
moisture, texture, temperature, sugar content and thickness of the slices can all
affect levels of browning.
In general, fresher breads have more moisture and brown slower than breads
that are a bit drier and are closer to their expiration date. Room temperature
bread will brown quicker than refrigerated or frozen bread. And, thin, light
textured breads brown quicker than densely textured, thick sliced breads.
5. The LED lights do not illuminate when I press “Bagel”, “Defrost”
or “Reheat”. What am I doing wrong?
Ensure that the lever is pushed
down before selecting a mode.
