- The toasting can be interrupted at any time by pressing the
Stop/Cancel button (
I
).
Never lift the lever (
B
) to cancel toasting.
Danger of burns!!
the bread toasting slots become very
hot during operation. Do not touch.
Defrost function
Frozen slices of bread may be toasted by pressing the Defrost
button (
F
) immediately after lowering the lever (
B
); the
toasting cycle will be lengthened in order to achieve the desired
browning. The defrost indicator light will remain lit while the
defrost function is in use.
Reheat function
To warm toast that has popped up but gone cold, lower the lever
(
B
) again and then press the ‘Reheat’ button (
G
). Please note
that this is fixed reheat time which cannot be adjusted by the
browning control. The reheat function can be cancelled at any
time by pressing the Stop/Cancel button (
I
). The reheat indicator
light will remain lit while the reheat function is in use.
Bagel function
The ‘Bagel’ function allows for the toasting of bread, bagels and
muffins etc on one side only (internal side), while the other
(external side) remains warm. Bagels and muffins must be
sliced in half before toasting. Press down on the lever (
B
) and
then press the ‘Bagel’ button (
H
). The bagel indicator light will
remain lit while the bagel function is in use.
Bun warmer (L) (only some models)
You can use the bun warmer to warm foods such as: croissants or
previously toasted food.
Proceed as follows:
- Place the bun warmer over the toasting slots as shown in
the figure.
- Rest the food to be warmed on the bun warmer.
- Turn the toasting level dial (
D
) to the required level (1-6).
- Lower the ON lever (
B
).
- If the food is not warm enough, next time use a higher
toasting level.
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.
-
USE ONLY WATER FOR CLEANING.
- 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.
Danger! DO NOT TOUCH ANY PART OF THE TOASTER
WITH SHARP OR METAL UTENSILS, ESPECIALLY INSIDE THE
BREAD TOASTING SLOTS. RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK.
