• Because of the irregular surface of
English muffins,
they
may require more than one toasting cycle. After toasting for
one cycle on the darkest setting, if a darker shade is
desired, adjust shade selector to a lighter setting and toast
for a second cycle. Watch closely to avoid overbrowning.
English muffins cut with a knife toast more evenly than
English muffins split with a fork.
• Many toasters have thermostats that must reset after toast-
ing one cycle. The electronic controls of this toaster allow
toasting batch after batch,
with no waiting for the thermo-
stat to reset.
• To remove food that becomes lodged in food slots, discon-
nect from outlet and allow toaster to cool. Turn toaster upside
down and shake. Do not use fork or other utensil that could
damage heating element or result in risk of fire or electrical
shock.
• When toasting a single slice, you may notice variations in
bread color from side to side.

Tips and Troubleshooting
• Toasting is affected by the temperature of the bread. Room
temperature bread may toast to a medium color on the
medium setting. The same type of bread that has been
refrigerated may require a darker setting to reach a medium
color.
• The moisture content will also affect toasting. Fresh
bagels,
made locally, will have a higher moisture content than bagels
purchased in the bread section of the supermarket. The bagel
setting only energizes the outside wall heating elements. A sec-
ond, shorter toasting cycle may be needed to reach desired
browness. Fresh bagels made locally may require two toasting
cycles.
Cleaning
NOTE:
If the toaster is used daily, the
crumb tray should be cleaned weekly.
1.
Unplug toaster and let cool.
2.
Slide open crumb tray, discard crumbs,
and wipe tray with clean cloth. Replace
crumb tray.
3.
Wipe outside of toaster with a damp
cloth. Do not use abrasive cleansers
that may scratch the surface of the toaster.
