GREAT BRITISH DESIGN, INNOVATION
AND EXCELLENCE SINCE 1912
Since the turn of the 20th century, Tower has been
designing, developing and manufacturing housewares and
small appliances used by millions of households throughout
the UK and beyond. During the 1960s, the rise in popularity
of pressure cooking saw Tower become the UK’s largest
producer of pressure cookers, right through into the late
1980s. In recent years the Tower brand has been reborn with
an exciting and varied range of housewares and electrical
appliances that have quickly reinstated the brand’s richly
deserved status as a household name.

4 - Before First Use
Before first use:
Read all instructions and safety information carefully before first use. Please
retain this information for future reference.
1. Remove all packaging materials including those that may be inside the
toasting slots or toasting lever slots.
2. Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth. Dry thoroughly. Do not use abrasive
cleaners.
3. Do not put the Toaster, cord or plug in water.
4. Make sure the crumb tray is pushed all the way into the back of the toaster
and the toasting levers are in the UP position.
5. Unwrap the power cord from the cord storage area on underneath the toaster,
and plug it into a 220-240V AC outlet.
6. Turn the browning selector knob to the lightest setting.
7. Lower the toasting lever until it locks into place. Operate the toaster without
bread once or twice to burn off any manufacturing residue. The odour is
normal and will go away after several uses.
Note: You may notice a light amount of smoke; this is also normal and will stop
as the heating elements continue to heat.

5 - Using Your Appliance
Self-Centring Guides:
Lowering the toasting lever closes the centring guides and holds the bread or
toaster food centrally in the toasting slots.
Note: The toasting lever will not lock down unless the toaster is plugged into an
electrical outlet.
Browning Guide:
Seven heating levels give you precise toasting results. Simply select your
desired browning level from the chart below.
Setting 1 Setting 2 Setting 3 Setting 4 Setting 5 Setting 6 Setting 7
Toasting Instructions:
1. Make sure the crumb tray is pushed all the way into the back of the Toaster
and that the toasting lever is in the UP position.
2. Make sure no bread or any other objects are inside the toasting slots.
3. Place the Toaster on a flat, level, heat resistant surface.
4. Plug the power cord in to a mains outlet.
5. Position the browning selector knob to your desired setting. There are 7
browning levels. Level 1 is for white and level 7 is for the darkest
browning setting.
6. Remove all protective wrappings from food before placing into the toasting
slots.
7. Insert bread or toaster food into the toasting slots. One or two slices can
be toasted at a time.
8. Lower the toasting lever until it locks into place. The Cancel button will light up,
and the self-centring guides will hold the food upright for uniform side-to-side
toasting. Once the bread is lowered into position, toasting will begin.
9. When the toast reaches the selected browning level, it will pop up
automatically.
10. Remove bread from toasting slots. Caution: Use care when removing bread
as the bread and the top of the toaster will still be hot.
11. If your toast jams, unplug the cord and move the toasting lever up and down a
few times to raise the jammed bread.
12. To interrupt toasting, press the CANCEL button. DO NOT lift the toasting lever.
13. Unplug cord from wall outlet when not in use.
Caution: If toaster starts to smoke, press Cancel button to stop
toasting immediately.
Avoid toasting the food with extremely runny ingredients such as butter.

the CANCEL button; then turn the browning control knob to adjust the browning
