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 . B reads vary in density and moisture content, requiring diff e re n t
settings. Dual, independent toast color control knobs are located at
one end of your To a s t e r. Set toast color control(s) to the color of
toast desired. For first use, set control(s) 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. Each toast lever controls two bread slots. Two slices of bread can
be toasted in one set of bread slots without having to use the
second set of bread slots. Four slices of toast can be prepared
simultaneously by depressing both toast levers at the same time.
7. Insert bread or toaster food into bread slots and push down one
or both of the toast levers.
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.
8. When toast is done, the toast lever with auto hi-lift will pop up
and the power will shut off automatically.
9. Turn toast color control(s) 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.
