BEFORE FIRST USE
•
Before using the toaster for the
first time operate the toaster
without bread.
•
As with all new electric heating
elements, your toaster emits a
‘new’ smell when it is first
switched on. This is quite normal
and not a cause for concern.
OPERATING THE
APPLIANCE
The toaster has two sides with
controls repeated for each half.
Each half can be used together
or independently.

Select the desired level of
browning on the browning
control dial
fl

After selecting the desired level,
place your bread in the slots
⁄
and depress the bread carriage
lever downwards until it locks.

After the set time has been
reached the bread will pop up
automatically ready for removal
from the slots. The bread
carriage lever will have returned
to its upper position and the
heating element will have
switched off.
WARNING: Do not wrap the
cable around the main body
of the appliance during or
after use.

Hints and tips
•
In order to achieve uniform
browning, we recommend you
wait a minimum of 30 seconds
between each toasting, so that
the control can be automatically
reset.
•
If toasting one slice only, you
may need to adjust the
browning control to a slightly
lower setting.
•
Note you will also notice a slight
variation in toast colour on one
side of a single slice.
•
Stale bread toasts more rapidly
than fresh bread. Therefore, the
browning control should be set
at a lower setting than usual.
•
All sorts of bread can be used
as well as teacakes, small rolls
etc. Slices should not however
be so thick as to cause burning
or jamming within the bread
slots.
•
If the bread in your toaster
becomes jammed disconnect
your toaster at the socket, allow
it to cool, then remove the
bread.
•
When toasting 2 or more slices
it is recommended they are of
equal size and freshness.
•
Allow the toaster to cool fully
before putting away.
