Some notes on browning
Toasting is a combination of cooking and drying the bread. Therefore,
differences in moisture level from one bread to another can result in
varying toasting times.
• For slightly dry bread, use a lower setting than you normally would.
• For very fresh bread or whole wheat bread, use a higher setting than
normal.
• Breads with very uneven surfaces (such as English mufns) will
require a higher toast setting.
• Thickly cut pieces of bread (including crumpet) will take longer to
toast, sometimes signicantly longer, since more moisture must be
evaporated from the bread before toasting can occur. Very thick
pieces may require two cycles.
• When toasting raisin or other fruit breads, remove any loose raisins,
etc. from the surface of the bread before putting into the toaster. This
will help prevent fruit pieces from falling into the toaster or sticking to
the guide wires in the slot.
Single slice toasting
If you are toasting a single slice of bread, set the heat selector to a
lighter setting than you normally would. The toaster is designed to heat
the whole toasting chamber for two slices. By lowering the heat for a
single slice, you won’t overtoast.
Frozen waffles, pancakes, french toast and frozen crumpet
These breads and pastries should be warmed using the Defrost button.
Toaster pastries
Exercise caution with toaster pastries; the lling can become quite hot,
long before the surface of the pastry becomes browned. Never leave
toaster pastries unattended while toasting or warming.
3. To begin toasting
Press the toast button to lower the carriage into the toasting
chamber.
4. To stop toasting
When the toasting cycle is nished, the toast will be raised.
If you wish to stop the cycle before it is nished, simply press
the Cancel button.
Tips
• Never force foods into the toasting slot. Foods should t freely
between the guide wires.
• Do not place buttered breads or pastries with llings or frostings in
the toaster, as this could create a re hazard.
• Uneven toasting is usually due to bread slices of uneven thickness.
• After use, unplug your toaster from the electrical outlet.

which extends the toasting cycle slightly.

Fail-Safe

and be able to return to a safe, usable state.
• When the Fail-Safe is activated all the LCD and LED lights
will come on and the unit will sound (3) one-second audible
tones. The LCD and LED lights will remain on until the unit is
unplugged and re-plugged into the outlet.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Always allow the toaster to cool completely before cleaning.
1. Always unplug the toaster from the electrical outlet before cleaning.
2. Do not use abrasive cleansers. Simply wipe the exterior with a clean
damp cloth and dry thoroughly. Apply any cleansing agent to a cloth,
not to the toaster, before cleaning.
3. To remove crumbs, slide out the crumb tray and discard crumbs.
Wipe clean and replace. Never operate the toaster without the
crumb tray in place.
4. To remove any pieces of bread remaining in the toaster, turn the
toaster upside down and gently shake. Never insert any hard or
sharp instruments into the slot, as this could damage the toaster
and cause a safety hazard.
5. Never wrap the cord around the outside of the toaster. Use the cord
storage cleats on the underside of the toaster.
6. Any other servicing should be performed by an authorised service
representative.
