Reheat function
Use this function to reheat bread that was toasted earlier. Simply insert the bread
into the bread slots, press the reheat button and then the on/off button. The lid
closes and the reheating process starts. The toaster automatically stops after
approximately 24 seconds. The preset browning level has no influence on the
reheat cycle. To cancel the reheat function, press the reheat and the on/off
button.
Defrost function
To activate the defrost function, start the toaster as described before, but press
the defrost button before choosing your desired browning level, then press the
on/off button. The lid of the toaster closes and the countdown time starts. The
defrost cycle stops automatically. The preset browning level determines the
defrost/countdown time.
Bagel function
Cut your bagel into half and insert the two halves into the bread slots facing the
centre of the unit. Press the bagel function button (toasting on one side only),
choose your desired browning level and start the toasting cycle by pressing the
on/off button. To stop the toaster before it stops automatically, press the on/off
button.
CAUTION!
•
Do not touch any hot parts of the toaster during or immediately after use.
•
Toasted bread can be very hot, take care when handling it. Let it cool down
or use pot-holders.
•
If the toaster does not switch off automatically after a few minutes, press
the on/off button and disconnect the power plug.
•
If you notice smoke coming out of the toaster, disconnect it from the
power immediately. Wait until the toaster has cooled down and take out
any food that may still be inside the toasting slot. Turn the toaster upside
down over a sink and gently shake it to dislodge any burnt crumbs. Empty
and clean the crumb tray (see page 7).
•
Never attempt to remove bread jammed in the toasting slot without
unplugging the toaster from the electrical outlet first. Be sure not to
damage the internal mechanism or heating elements when removing bread.
Tips for perfect toasting
Toasting is a combination of cooking and drying bread. As moisture levels differ
from one bread to another, toasting times can vary.
•
For slightly dry bread, use a lower browning setting.
•
For fresh bread or wholemeal bread, use a higher setting.
•
Breads with very uneven surfaces (such as English muffins) will require a
higher setting.
•
Thickly cut pieces of bread will take longer to toast, sometimes significantly
longer, since more moisture must be evaporated from the bread before
toasting can occur.
•
Before toasting bagels, slice each bagel into two equal halves. Then follow
the instructions above for using the bagel function for one-side toasting.
•
When toasting raisin or other fruit bread, remove any loose raisins from the
