Using Your Toaster:
Check the toast slots for any remaining packaging. Be sure slots are
completely clear before use.
Place toaster on a fat, stable and heat resistant surface away from the
edge and at least 3 inches away from the wall or back of counter.
Make sure the bread carriage lever is in the up position.
Unwind the power cord and plug into a outlet.
Run toaster empty through 1 full cycle to allow the new element to preheat
and burn off any dust that may have accumulated during assembly.
Attention:
First use may cause a slight odor or small smoking upon heating,
it is normal. This is a result of the heating element chemical reaction. It
quickly goes away.
With the bread carriage in the up position insert the slice(s) you would like
to toast.
Turn the browning control knob to desired position. The higher the number
the darker the toast (1-6).
Press the carriage lever down until it locks into position
When the toaster cycle is completed the toast rises automatically.
Note
: To Stop the toasting cycle before it is completed simply press the
STOP Button.
When heating is complete, unplug the product from the electrical outlet.
WARNING
: Always unplug the product from the electrical outlet when it is
not in use or will be left unattended.
Never wrap the power cord around the outside of the toaster. The power
cord should be wrapped around the cord storage cavity underneath the
toaster.
Toasting Tips:
*Toasting times may vary on the moisture level of the bread you are
toasting.
For slightly DRY bread, use a lower setting (1-3) on the Browning Control
Knob.
FRESH bread or WHOLE WHEAT bread use a higher setting (4-6) on the
browning control knob.
ENGLISH MUFFINS will require a higher setting (4-6) on the browning
control knob.
Thick cuts of bread like BAGELS take longer to toast since more moisture
must be evaporated from the bread before toasting occurs.
Some very thick cuts of bread may require two toasting cycles.
If you will toast bread with pieces of fruit, please remove all loose pieces
before toasting. These can fall into the toaster or stick to the guard wires.
Before toasting bagels, slice them into two equal halves; place them in the
toaster with the cut sides facing each other.
