BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME
1. Set the browning level to maximum (6).
2. Operate the appliance empty, to cure the new elements.
3. This may smell a little, but it’s nothing to worry about. Ensure the room is well
ventilated.
TOASTING BREAD
1. Place the toaster upright on a firm, level, heat-resistant surface.
2. Put the plug into the power socket.
3. Turn the browning control to the required setting (1 = light, 7 = dark).
4. Put bread into the toasting slots (maximum thickness 26mm).
5. Press the lever down fully. It won’t lock down unless the toaster is connected to the
electricity supply.
6. The 5 light willl come on and the elements will heat up.
7. When it’s done, the toast will pop up.
8. To stop toasting, press 5.
• After toasting small items (bagels, crumpets, etc.) the lever may be raised further,
to allow them to be removed more easily.
BAGEL
1. Split your bagel and put the two halves into the toasting slots.
2. Set the browning control to 3 (or lower), push the lever down then press the b
button.
3. Your toaster will lightly toast both sides of your bagel.
FROZEN BREAD
1. Leave the browning level at your favoured setting, insert the frozen bread, lower
the lever, then press f.
2. The f light will come on and the toasting time will be altered automatically to give
the same degree of browning you get with unfrozen bread.
REHEATING TOAST
1. Leave the browning control at your favoured setting, insert the bread, lower the
lever, then press m.
2. The m light will come on and the toast will be given a short burst of heat.
3. Don’t reheat buttered, torn, or misshapen bread.
HINTS AND TIPS
• Old bread has less moisture, so makes crisper toast.
• Old bread, thin slices, and sweet bread products (tea cakes, fruit loaf, etc.) brown
faster so use a lower setting.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
• Unplug the toaster and let it cool down.
• Wipe the outer surfaces with a damp cloth.
