TOASTER SAFETY

Your safety and the safety of others are very important.

We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your

appliance. Always read and obey all safety messages.

This is the safety alert symbol. This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you

and others. All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the

word "DANGER" or "WARNING." These words mean:

You can be killed or seriously injured

if you don't immediately follow instructions.

You can be killed or seriously injured

ifyou don't follow instructions.

All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can happen if the instructions are not followed.

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:

• Read all instructions.

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

• To protect against electrical shock, do not immerse cord, plugs, or toaster in water or other liquid.

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

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

• 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 Facility for 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 any control to "OFF," then remove plug from outlet.

KITCHENAID ®TOASTER USE

Models KMT233 and KMT433

Before using your toaster, check the Extra- Wide Slots and remove any packing or

printed material that might have fallen inside during shipping or handling. Do not probe inside the toaster with a metal object.

You may see light smoke the first time you use the toaster. This is normal, and the

smoke will soon disappear.

are tall enough to allow the cord to exit from under any side of the toaster.

outlet.

Do not use an extension cord. Failure to follow these instructions

can result in death, fire, or electrical shock.

pressed for 10 minutes, the digital display will turn off.

Insert bread or other food to be toasted in slot.

For even toasting on model KMT233,

toast only one bread type and thickness

at a time. For 4-slot model KMT433,

with Dual Independent Controls, if toasting of two different breads is

desired, be sure to toast only one bread

type in each pair of slots. The centering racks will adjust slot width

automatically to hold food upright for even toasting.

Turn the Temperature Knob to select the degree of darkness you want. Turn the

knob to the right for darker toast, to the left for lighter. The digital display indicates the shade level, from 1 (light) to 7 (dark).

NOTE: Different types of bread and their moisture levels may require different shade settings. For example, dry bread will brown more rapidly than moist bread

and will require a lighter setting.
