fire. Do not use this appliance under or
next to curtains or other combustible
material.
- Do not cover the appliance while it is in use, it could
overheat and catch fire.
- We recommend that you do not use your toaster directly
under wall cupboards.
- Burnt food can catch fire, so never leave your toaster on
unattended, and set the browning control lower for thin or
dry bread which can burn more easily.
- Never warm food with a topping or filling (e.g. pizza): if it
drips into the toaster it could catch fire.
- Clean the crumb tray regularly: crumbs can smoke or burn.

USE
• Make sure the lever is raised and the knob is set for medium
level toasting.
• Plug into the mains.
• Before using for the first time, heat up the empty toaster 3
times at max setting.
This will remove possible odours caused by manufacturing
processes. Ventilate the room after each cycle.
• Place the slices of bread in the toasting slots, then lower
the lever as far as it will go. Do not cook or let the bread
directly on the top plate as this part is not inteded for
cooking purpose.
Please note:
if the appliance is not plugged into the
mains, the lever will not stay down.
• When toasting is complete, the lever rises automatically,
together with the slices of bread.
If the lever is
accidentally blocked or held down, toaster may not
switch off automatically.
• If the bread is not sufficiently toasted, select a darker
toasting level by turning the knob.
Alternatively, if the toast is too dark, select a lighter
toasting level.
• Toasting can be interrupted at any moment simply by
pressing the stop/cancel button.
• Do not use the toaster empty (without slices of bread).
• Do not use very thin or broken slices of bread.
• Never use force to insert excessively large pieces of food.
Danger of burns!!
the bread toasting slots become very
hot during operation. Do not touch!
Defrost function
Frozen slices of bread may be toasted by pressing the Defrost
button immediately after lowering the lever; the toasting cycle
will be lengthened in order to achieve the desired browning. The
defrost indicator light will remain lit while the defrost function
is in use.
Reheat function
To warm toast that has popped up but gone cold, lower the lever
again and then press the ‘Reheat’ button. Please note that this
is fixed reheat time which cannot be adjusted by the browning
control. The reheat function can be cancelled at any time by
pressing the Stop/Cancel button. The reheat indicator light will
remain lit while the reheat function is in use.
SUGGESTIONS FOR USE
• Select a lower setting for light browning, for toasting one
slice only or for dry bread.
• When toasting a single slice of bread, you may notice a va-
riation in toast colour from one side to the other – this is
normal.
• Dry/stale bread toasts more quickly than fresh bread, and
thinly sliced bread toasts more quickly than thickly sliced
bread. Therefore the browning control should be set at a
lower setting than usual.
• For best results ensure that the bread slices are of an even
thickness, freshness and size.
• In order to achieve uniform browning we recommend that
you wait a minimum of 30 seconds between each toasting
so that the heating control can reset. Alternatively select a
lower setting when additional toasting is carried out.
