Use and store it out of reach of children.

outdoors.
3 Sit the toaster upright on a stable, level, heat-resistant surface.
4 Don’t put it on or near anything that might be damaged even by moderate heat.
5 Bread may burn. Don’t use the toaster near or below curtains or other combustible
materials, and watch it while it’s hot.
6 The area round the toasting slots gets very hot – don’t touch!
7 Route the cable so it doesn’t overhang, and can’t be tripped over or caught.
8 When using only one of a pair of toasting slots, don’t let anything get into the other
slot, as both slots will become “live” when you lower the bread carriage handle.

hot.
