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

7. Do not insert fingers or metallic utensils into slots when toaster is
plugged in.

8. Do not operate toaster near flammable materials such as
curtains, wall fabric, etc., to prevent fire.

9. Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to
cool before cleaning the appliance.

10. Do not insert utensils or foil-covered or oversized foods in toaster
as they may involve a risk of fire or electric shock.

11. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or
after the appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in any
manner. Return appliance to the nearest authorized service

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

POLARIZED PLUG INSTRUCTIONS

Some appliances are equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is
wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug
will fit into the polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not
properly fit into the outlet at first, reverse it. If it still does not fit,
contact a competent qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify
the plug in any way.
For appliances equipped with a standard plug, simply insert the plug
into the outlet without paying attention to the way you plug it.

SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS

A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards resulting
from becoming entangled in, or tripping over a longer cord.
Extension cords may be used if care is exercised in their use.

• The electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least

that of the appliance. If the electrical rating of the extension
cord is too low, it could overheat and burn.

• The resulting extended cord should be arranged so that it will

not drape over the counter top or tabletop where it can be
pulled on by children or tripped over.

CAUTION: the bread carriage handle will not stay
down if the appliance is not plugged in!

BEFORE USING THE TOASTER FOR THE FIRST TIME

In order to eliminate any manufacturing residues, operate the toaster
a couple of times without bread with the browning control selector
on a medium power level. Some smoke might escape.

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.

• 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 to 9. 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 stop the heating process,
simply by pressing the cancel button.

• The reheat button allows you to reheat already toasted bread or
to toast bread which is not toasted enough during a short time

5

USK TO 25908 - 080404

without modifying the browning degree, just press on the so­called control button to activate this function.

• The defrost button allows you to toast the bread that has been
frozen beforehand. Just press on the so-called control button to
activate this function.

• Always unplug the appliance after use and let it cool down
before handling or storing it.

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.

• Caution! It is very important to empty the crumb tray regularly.
Crumbs that have accumulated in the toaster might burn and
the appliance might catch fire.

• 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 OR ANY OTHER LIQUID.

• All other maintenance and repair should be performed by a
qualified technician. No guarantee claims will be accepted if the
appliance has been opened or damaged previously.

INFORMACIÓN SOBRE EL ENCHUFE POLARIZADO

Algunos aparatos están provistos con un enchufe polarizado (una
pata es más ancha que la otra). Para reducir el riesgo de choque
eléctrico, este enchufe calza en el tomacorriente polarizado de una
sola manera. Si el enchufe no cabe totalmente en el tomacorriente,
gire el enchufe. Si aún así no calza, consulte a un servicio técnico
cualificado. No intente anular esta característica de seguridad.
Para los aparatos provistos con un enchufe clásico, basta con
insertar el enchufe en la toma de corriente.
