Bread is stuck
in elevator
Bread is toasting
unevenly
Toaster is emitting
smoke or burnt smell
Elevator cage is stuck in
the open position when
elevator is lowered
Display went from full
brightness to dim
The “a little extra”
function does not work
Unplug Toaster and let it cool before attempting to remove
bread. Never use a metal tool to remove stuck bread.
This is usually due to bread slices of uneven thickness
and/or moisture content.
1. If it is the first use, this should naturally resolve itself.
2. This could be due to food particles near or touching
the heating elements, or a full crumb tray. See cleaning
instructions on pg.13 to learn how to clean your crumb
tray. To remove any small pieces of bread left in the
Toaster, ensure it is unplugged, then turn the Toaster
upside down.
The internal mechanism may be jammed. Unplug Toaster,
allow to cool, and pull the cage walls towards the center of
the slot until they move freely.
The Toaster does this automatically, and will also go from
dim to off when not in use.
Remember that the “a little extra” function only works
before or after a cycle. The function is not available while a
toasting cycle is in process.
Question/Problem
Explanation/Solution
1.
Insert one slice of frozen bread per slot.
When defrosting one slice of bread,
place bread in the rightmost slot.
2.
Twist dial to select browning level.
3.
Press the defrost button. Illuminated
LED indicates the feature is activated.
4.
If defrosting a bagel, press the bagel
button in addition to the defrost button.
5.
Press the “down” arrow to lower the
elevator and start the defrost/toast cycle.
6.
Once the defrost cycle times out or is
cancelled, the chosen toast cycle will
start/resume.
7.
To check on your toast, use the take-a-
peek function. (see pg. 10)
8.
To cancel the cycle at any time, press
the “up” arrow twice. The elevator will
raise toast and the unit will “beep” to
indicate the cycle has ended.
NOTE:
•
The defrost cycle is based on the time necessary to thaw a frozen slice
of bread of average thickness and density. Thin frozen bread may
require less toasting time in addition to defrosting, while thick/dense
frozen bread may require more toasting time.
•
The defrost setting can be turned on/off at any point before or during
a normal toasting cycle by pressing the defrost button.
TO DEFROST AND TOAST FROZEN BREAD OR BAGELS:
Defrost mode first defrosts and then toasts, all in the same cycle. All heating elements
are on during the defrost cycle.
When defrost is activated, the “a little extra”
button LED turns off to indicate the feature
is disabled. The defrost LED will pulse until
cycle is finished.
1.
Insert one slice of bread per slot. When
heating one slice of bread, place bread
in the rightmost slot.
2.
Press the “a little extra” button. The
elevator will automatically lower toast
and the cycle will start. Illuminated LED
indicates the feature is activated.
3.
When the cycle finishes, your toast will
automatically be raised and the unit
will “beep.” To cancel before the “a little
extra” cycle finishes, press the “a little
extra” button or the “up” arrow.
FOR “A LITTLE EXTRA” TIME:
The “a little extra” function adds 30 seconds to the cycle if your toast is not quite dark
enough or if it cools off before you can enjoy it.
NOTE
: The “a little extra” function is only available at the end/beginning of a cycle. Button is off/dark while cycle is in process.
When “a little extra” function is activated, bagel and
defrost LEDs turn off to indicate these features are
disabled. The “a little extra” button LED will pulse until
cycle is finished.
