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. Breads vary in density and moisture content, requiring different
settings. Set toast color control to the color of toast desired. For
first use, set control to “3” or medium setting. “LIGHT” or
numbers “1” and “2” indicate light color setting ; “DARK” or
numbers “4” and “5” indicate dark color setting.
3. Toast thin breads on the lighter toast color settings. Stale bread,
thin bread or sweet bread products, such as tea cakes and fruit
loaf, brown much more quickly than ordinary bread, so they
should be toasted on the lighter settings.
4. Remove all protective wrappings from food before placing in
bread slots.
5. When toasting more than one slice of bread, use slices of similar
size, thickness and freshness. Avoid toasting torn slices of bread
and broken pastries, which may get lodged in bread slots.
6. Insert bread or toaster food into bread slots and push down
toast lever.
NOTE: Use either bread slot when toasting a single slice or
portion. Use bread slices that fit freely into the slots. The
self-adjusting bread guides hold food upright for uniform
side-to-side toasting.
7. When toast is done, the toast lever with auto hi-lift will pop up
and the power will shut off automatically.
8. Turn toast color control counter-clockwise past “LIGHT” setting to
cancel the toasting cycle.
Removing Lodged Toast
If a piece of toast becomes lodged in the Toaster, unplug the Toaster
and allow to cool. Press 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. Doing so may damage the heating element or cause
injury.
