Operating Instructions
3
Prior to Using for the First Time
To avoid the build up of unpleasant
odours, the appliance should be placed
near an open window and operated a
few times at the maximum browning
setting
without any bread
. Leave the
toaster to cool to room temperature
between the heating phases.
Switching On
0
Plug the mains plug into the mains
socket.
0
Insert bread for toasting.
Select the browning setting and press
down the start lever (Figure 3).
3
When the required degree of browning
has been reached, the toaster switches
off automatically; the slices of toast
are lifted up ready for removal. By lift-
ing the start lever
(bread lift func-
tion)
the toasted bread can be lifted
sufficiently such that it is easy to
remove (Figure 4).
The Safety Switch and Adjusting
the Browning Setting (Figure 2)
Using the rotary knob you can contin-
uously adjust the browning setting
from 1-6 as required. Setting 1 for
lightest browning. Setting 6 for darkest
browning.
Use a setting between 1 and 3 when
you first start toasting. If the toast is
not browned to your liking, set the
adjuster lower or higher, higher for
example when toasting rye or dark
bread. When toasting only 1 slice and
also when toasting bread that is no
longer fresh, use a slightly lower
browning setting.
3
The electronic toasting time regulator
ensures that once a browning setting
has been chosen, the results are always
the same for the same type of bread.
3
Once you have finished toasting we
recommend
always
turning the rotary
knob for the browning setting to .
This prevents the appliance being
switched on accidentally.
