CAUTION: This appliance is hot during operation and retains heat for
some time after turning off. Always use oven mitts when handling hot
materials and allow metal parts to cool before cleaning. Do not place
anything on top of the Toaster while it is operating or while it is hot.
CAUTION:
◆ DO NOT toast pastries with runny fillings or frosting.
◆ DO NOT toast torn slices of bread.
◆ DO NOT place buttered bread or wrapped food into the Toaster.
◆ DO NOT toast small-size breads, mini-baguettes, breadsticks, etc.
POLARIZED PLUG: This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is
wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is
intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not
fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a
qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.

appliances, your appliance may not operate properly. It should be

Toasting Instructions
1. Plug cord into any 120 V ~ 60 Hz outlet. The unit may emit an
odor and/or smoke during first few uses from oils used in
manufacturing. This is normal for a new appliance.
2. Set Toast Color Control to the color of toast desired. For first use,
set control mid-way between Light and Dark settings. Toast thin
breads on the lighter toast color settings.
3. Insert bread or toaster food into Bread Slots and push down Toast
Note: Use any slot when toasting single slice or portion. Use bread

slices that fit freely into the slots. The Self-Adjusting Bread Slots hold food
upright for uniform side-to-side toasting.
4. When toast is done, the Toast Lever with Auto Hi-Lift will pop up
and the power will shut off automatically.
5. To interrupt toasting, turn control dial to Cancel.
Convenience Foods Toasting
Today there are many varieties of packaged convenience food available,
both frozen and non-frozen (shelf pastry), that can be toasted in your
toaster.
Since toaster foods and individual tastes vary, it is difficult to recommend
exact Toast Color Control Setting, however, after a little experimentation
you will discover the best setting for your needs. You may also wish to refer
to the heating instructions on food packaging.
Frozen Foods
Move the Toast Color Control to a darker color setting. Due to
variations in size and density, frozen items will require different
settings. Moving the control clockwise will provide a longer toasting
cycle. Thawing frozen foods before toasting will help ensure that the
inside of the food is adequately cooked and will prevent the outside
from burning. Again, experimentation is the best way to
accommodate individual tastes and food choices.
5.
Removing Lodged Toast
If a piece of toast becomes lodged in the Toaster, unplug the Toaster
and allow to cool. Hold the Toasting Lever down. Turn the Toaster
upside down and shake the toast loose.
IMPORTANT: Never use a fork or sharp-edged utensil to remove
toast, because that may damage the heating element or cause injury.
Cleaning Instructions
CAUTION: Do not immerse in water or other liquid.
1. Unplug toaster and allow to cool.
2. Wipe outside with soft, damp cloth. Polish with soft, dry cloth.
3. Open Crumb Tray in bottom of toaster and brush out crumbs
with pastry brush. Close Crumb Tray securely.
User Maintenance Instructions
This appliance requires little maintenance. It contains no user
serviceable parts. Do not try to repair it yourself. Any servicing
requiring disassembly other than the above cleaning must be
performed by a qualified appliance repair technician.
