CTO 4003
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 variation
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.
PRECAUTIONS
•
Never use the appliance when it is empty (when there is no
bread inside) except on first use.
•
Do not use very thin or broken slices of bread.
•
Do not insert other foods that may drip during the cooking
process. In addition to making the cleaning procedure more
difficult, these may cause fires.
•
Clean the crumb tray regularly: crumbs can smoke or burn.
•
Do not insert (by force) foods that are too big for the slots.
•
Do not insert forks or other utensils into the toaster in order
to remove bread. As well as damaging the toaster, there is a high
risk of electric shock.
•
Should some toast remain blocked in the toaster, remove the
plug from the mains, wait for the toaster to cool down until it is
safe to touch, then turn the toaster over and shake it gently.
CARE AND CLEANING
•
Before cleaning, unplug your toaster and let it cool down.
•
The external part of the appliance must be cleaned with a soft
cloth. Do not use abrasive detergents that can ruin the surface.
•
DO NOT IMMERSE IN WATER.
•
After each use, remove the plug from the electrical outlet and
empty the crumb collection tray that is under the appliance.
DO NOT TOUCH ANY PART OF THE TOASTER WITH
SHARP OR METAL UTENSILS, ESPECIALLY INSIDE THE
BREAD TOASTING SLOTS. RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK.
