IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed to
prevent the risk of fire, electric shock, burns, or other injuries or damages.

• Read all instructions before use.

• Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.

• To protect against electrical shock do not immerse cord or plug in water or other
liquids.

• Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.

• Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow it to cool before
putting on or taking off parts.

• Do not operate appliance with a damaged cord or plug, or after the appliance
malfunctions or has been dropped or damaged in any manner. Call our toll­free customer assistance number for information on examination, repair, or
adjustment.

• The use of accessory attachments not recommended by the appliance
manufacturer may cause injuries.

• Do not use outdoors.

• Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.

• Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated oven.

• To disconnect, turn every control to “off”, then remove plug from the wall outlet.

• Do not use this appliance for anything other than its intended use.

• Oversized foods, metal foil packages, or utensils must not be inserted in the toaster
as they may cause a risk of fire or electric shock.

• A fire may occur if the toaster is covered or touching flammable material, including
curtains, draperies, walls, etc., when in operation.

• Do not attempt to dislodge food when toaster is plugged in.

• Do not operate toaster unattended.

• Risk of fire if the crumb tray is not cleaned regularly.

• Do not use metal scouring pads for cleaning. Pieces can get broken, and there is a
risk of electric shock if the pad comes in contact with electrical parts.

• Do not cook, warm or toast rice cakes, fried foods, or non-bread items.

ADDITIONAL SAFEGUARDS

This appliance is for HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY.

DO NOT OPERATE APPLIANCE IF THE LINE CORD SHOWS ANY DAMAGE, OR IF
APPLIANCE WORKS INTERMITTENTLY OR STOPS WORKING ENTIRELY.

Extension cord use

A short power-supply cord is to be provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming
entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Longer detachable power-supply cords or
extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use. If a longer
detachable power-supply cord or extension cord is used,

1) The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be at least as
great as the electrical rating of the appliance, and

2) The cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop
where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance must be grounded while in use.
CAUTION: To ensure continued protection against risk of electric shock, connect to
properly ground outlets only

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS – US ONLY

The appliance has a plug that looks like Figure A. An adaptor, as shown in Figure B, should
be used for connecting a 3-prong grounding plug to a 2-wire receptacle. The grounding
tab, which extends from the adaptor, must be connected to a permanent ground such
as a properly grounded receptacle as shown in Figure C, using a metal screw.
