Tips and Troubleshooting
• Toasting is affected by the temperature of the bread.
Room-temperature bread may toast to a medium color
on the medium setting. The same type of bread that has
been refrigerated may require a darker setting to reach a
medium color.
• The moisture content will also affect toasting. Fresh
bagels
,
made locally, will have a higher moisture content than
bagels purchased in the bread section of the supermarket.
The bagel setting only energizes the inside heating elements.
A second, shorter toasting cycle may be needed to reach
desired browness. Fresh bagels made locally may require
two toasting cycles.
• Because of the irregular surface of
English muffins
, they
may require more than one toasting cycle. After toasting
for one cycle on the darkest setting, if a darker shade is
desired, adjust shade selector to a lighter setting and toast
for a second cycle. Watch closely to avoid overbrowning.
English muffins cut with a knife toast more evenly than
English muffins split with a fork.
• Some foods may become wedged in the toaster slot. If
food becomes jammed, the toaster will automatically shut
off at the end of the toasting cycle. Unplug the toaster and
let cool. Use a wooden utensil to remove food.
• When
toasting only one slice,
the bread may be placed
in any slot of the toaster. When toasting a single slice, you
may notice variations in bread color from side to side.
