OPERATION
■
Before using your appliance for the first time, check if it is clean (see “Maintenance and
cleaning”) as it comes into direct contact with bread. Check if any object has fallen into the slot.
■
In the first time, connect the appliance only to a mains earthed wall socket. A grommet on
the bottom of the appliance enables to maintain the cord by positioning it to the backside
of the appliance.
■
Place the bread slices in the slot (for the French bread, cut a loaf shorter than the
slot,then cut it in two pieces along its length.). Your appliance is provided to receive French
bread, but also pieces of toast or other bread slices if their thickness and their length are
shorter than the one of the slot.
■
Press down the bread carriage handle until it stops (in the same time, the grid inside the
slot will tighten around the bread in order to keep it away from the heating wires).
■
Then release the pressure and the handle will stay in the lower position, which means
that the heating process has begun. If the handle comes up immediately, check if the
appliance is plugged in as it blocks when the unit is plugged in.
■
You can adjust the browning intensity to obtain a more or less toasted bread by
positioning the browning control selector to one of the degrees marked from 1 to7.
■
Therefore you only have to turn clockwise to increase the intensity, and anticlockwise to
decrease it. The higher the number is, the more toasted the bread will be.
■
During the functioning, if you think that the bread is toasted enough or for another
reason,you can break the heating process, simply by pressing the “STOP” button.
■
The "REHEAT" button allows you to reheat already toasted bread or to toast bread which
is not toasted enough during a short time without modifying the browning degree.
■
The “DEFROST” button allows you to toast the bread that has been frozen
before hand.
■
Always unplug the appliance after use and let it cool down before handling or storing it.
■
A cord winder is foreseen on the bottom of the appliance: two feet like two
semicircles.When you store your appliance, wind the cord around the feet.
MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
■
Before attempting any cleaning operation, make sure the toaster is unplugged from the
supply socket and fully cooled down.
■
To remove bread crumbs slide the crumb tray situated on the side of the
appliance.
■
Never use sharp objects to clean. Doing so could damage the appliance.
■
To clean the exterior surfaces, simply wipe over with a soft damp cloth. On no account
must the toaster be immersed in water.
■
All other maintenance and repair should be performed by a qualified technician.
