TOASTING TIPS
Here are a few tips to help get the best out of your toaster.
REMOVE BEFORE
1
FIRST USE
Ensure your toaster is
unplugged and cool.
REMOVE CARDBOARD
INSERTS FROM THE
SLOTS BEFORE FIRST USE.
A re may occur if incorrectly
positioned.
4 5
2
DO NOT STORE OR USE
YOUR TOASTER IN AN
APPLIANCE GARAGE OR
UNDER CUPBOARDS. A
re may occur if incorrectly
positioned.
UNPLUG
3
DO NOT STORE OR USE
YOUR TOASTER CLOSE
TO CURTAINS OR
FLAMMABLE MATERIAL.
A re may occur if
incorrectly positioned.
• Different breads will toast at different rates, wholemeal bread takes longer than white bread,
fresh bread will take longer than day old bread. Remember to adjust your browning control
to allow for your particular type of bread.
• After the rst round of toast, the elements and toaster body will be heated up, subsequent
rounds will take less time to toast.
• At any time during the toasting cycle you can lift the toasting lever and check the progress
of the toasting.
• Use the bagel setting to toast burger buns, bagels, mufns or tea cakes, this setting toasts
one side whilst gently warming the other.
• The thickest slice of bread that will t in your toaster is 36mm thick. Forcing bread which is
too thick or too long into the slots will be difcult to eject once toasted.
• You may nd it easier to use a ‘sandwich cage’ to toast smaller items. Inserting and removing
items will be easier (sold separately).
• When hand cutting a fresh loaf, cut the slices as evenly as possible. Uneven slices will toast
unevenly.
• Keep elements free from breadcrumbs and broken pieces of bread. If left these may burn
out the elements. With the toaster unplugged use a soft brush to clean inside your toaster,
do not use a knife!
• To reheat recently made toast set the browning control to 1.
• Cancel toasting manually at any time by pressing the cancel button on the browning control
knob.
Place the toaster on an
open level surface. Ensure
the toaster is positioned
away from the wall.
UNPLUG WHEN NOT IN
USE.
