IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

- This product is designed for household use only -

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

1. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS.

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

3. To protect against electrical shock and personal injury, do not immerse this
appliance, including cord and plug, in water or other liquid.

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

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

6. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the
appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in any manner. To avoid
hazards, return appliance to NESCO® Factory Service Department for
examination, repair or adjustment.

7. The use of accessory attachments not recommended by the manufacturer
may result in re, electric shock or injury to persons.

8. Do not use outdoors.

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

10. Do not place on or near a hot gas or electrical burner or in a heated oven.

11. Do not use appliance for other than its intended use, as described in this
manual.

12. Do not use metal scouring pads on the exterior surface of the appliance.

13. This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with
reduced physical sensory or mental capabilities, unless they have been
given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person
responsible for their safety.

14. Oversize foods, metal foil packages, or utensils must not be inserted in a
toaster as they may involve a risk of re or electric shock.

15. A re may occur if toasters are covered or touching ammable material,
including curtains, draperies, walls, and the like, when in operation.

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

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Polarized Plug: This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the

other). To reduce risk of electric shock, plug is intended to t into polarized outlet
only one way. If the plug does not t fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still
does not t, contact a qualied electrician. Do not try to modify the plug in any way.

Short Cord Instructions: A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risk
resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Extension
cords may be used if care is exercised in their use. If an extension cord is used, the
marked electrical rating of the cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating
of the appliance. The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the
tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.

Defrost Button

The defrost function allows you to toast bread straight from the freezer. Insert the bread
into your toaster, press the loading handle down and then press the defrost button. Your
toaster will extend the toasting time to allow the bread time to defrost. Keep a careful eye
on the toast to ensure that it doesn’t burn.

Browning Control

The browning control regulates how the bread is toasted, in other words, the color of the
toast. Lower settings produce lighter toast and higher settings produce darker toast. When
setting the browning control, remember that dry or thin slices of bread will toast quicker and
require a lower setting. Moist or thick slices of bread will require a higher setting.

Lift-and-Look feature

The lift-and-look feature allows you to check the progress of the toast without cancelling
the toasting process. Just lift the loading handle up at any time during toasting and lower
it again to resume toasting.

Before using your Toaster the rst time

• Carefully remove your toaster from its box. Remove all packaging from inside the

bread slots.

• Position your toaster on a stable, secure, dry and level work surface away from the edge.

• Bread may burn therefore do not use the appliance near or below combustible materials

such as curtains. Never use the toaster below wall cupboards or shelves.

• Before connecting to a power source, make sure your supply voltage is the same as the

one indicated on the appliance. Connect the plug to a suitable power outlet and make
sure that the power cord does not overhang the work surface.

• When you rst use your toaster, there may be a slight odor as the heating elements

warm up for the rst time. This is quite normal and not a cause for concern. To remove
the odour, simply operate your toaster for the rst time without any bread in it.

Operating Instructions

• Never force bread into the toasting slots. Bread should t easily into the toasting slots.

• Never toast slices of bread or food items that have been buttered or that contain sugar,

or products such as jam or preserves.

• Do not use bent, damaged or broken bread in your toaster as it may cause it to jam.

• Set the level of toasting using the browning control. The higher the number selected,

the darker the toast will be.

• Place the bread into the toasting slots. You can toast one or two slices of bread but only

place a single slice in each slot. Press the loading handle down until it latches.

• The bread will be lowered into the toaster and toasting will begin.

• The loading handle will not latch if your toaster is not connected to the power supply,

and may not latch if the browning control is set to its minimum or lowest setting.

• Don’t forget, you can use the lift-and-look feature during toasting to check your toast.

• Simply lift the loading handle up to examine your toast and lower it again to resume

toasting. If you nd your toast is cooked to your preference, press the cancel button to
stop further toasting.

• When toasting has nished, the loading handle will rise and the toasted bread can be

removed. You can lift the loading handle upwards beyond its rest position to help you
remove the toast.

• If the toast is not done enough it can be toasted again. Turn the browning control to a

lower setting and keep a careful eye on the toast to ensure that it doesn’t burn.

• Toasting can be stopped at any time by pressing the cancel button.

Toasting tips

• Toasting is a combination of drying and cooking the bread and, because moisture

levels differ from one bread to another, toasting times can vary.

• For slightly dry bread, use a lower setting than normal.

• For fresh bread or whole wheat bread, use a higher setting than normal.

• Bread which has a very uneven surface will require a higher setting.

• Thicker cut pieces of bread (including crumpets) will take longer to toast -

sometimes signicantly longer. This is because more moisture must be evaporated
from the bread before toasting can occur. Very thick pieces of bread may require two
toasting cycles.

• When toasting raisin or other fruit breads, remove any loose raisins or fruit from the

surface of the bread before putting it into your toaster. This will help prevent fruit
pieces from falling into your toaster or sticking to the guard wires in the toasting
slot.

• Single slice toasting - If you are toasting a single slice of bread, set the browning

control to a lower setting than normal. By using a lower setting when toasting a
single slice of bread, it will not be over toasted.

• If your toaster jams:

• Never use a knife or any other utensil or implement to remove jammed bread.

• Never insert your ngers into the bread slots.

• Switch the toaster off at the power supply socket and unplug it.

• Allow the toaster to completely cool down.

• Carefully ease the bread out of the toaster being careful not to damage the
heating element.

Care and Cleaning Instructions

• Always switch off, unplug and allow the toaster to cool down before moving, cleaning

or storing. Never immerse the toaster or power cord and plug in water or any other
liquid.

• Clean the outside of your toaster with a damp cloth then dry thoroughly.

• Never use harsh, abrasive or caustic cleaners.

• Crumb removal

• It is important that crumbs are not allowed to build up inside your toaster. Excess

crumbs are unhygienic and could catch re.

• Crumbs can be removed by sliding the crumb tray out from the bottom of your

toaster.

• You can then tip the crumbs out. Always make sure that your toaster has completely

cooled down and is disconnected from the power supply before removing crumbs.

• Never use your toaster without the crumb tray tted. Always replace the crumb tray

before using your toaster.
