Electromagnetic fields (EMF)
This Philips appliance complies with all standards regarding electromagnetic
fields (EMF). If handled properly and according to the instructions in this
user manual, the appliance is safe to use based on scientific evidence
available today.
Before first use
Remove any stickers and wipe the body of the toaster with a damp cloth.
Before you use the appliance for the first time, we advise you to let the
appliance complete a few toasting cycles without slices of bread on the
highest browning setting in a properly ventilated room. This burns off any
dust that may have accumulated on the heating elements and prevents
unpleasant smells when toasting bread.
Using the appliance
Put the appliance on a stable and flat surface, away from curtains and
1
other combustible materials. Put the plug in the wall socket.
To adjust the length of the cord, wind part of it round the brackets in
2
the base of the appliance (Fig. 2).
Toasting bread
Never let the toaster operate unattended.
Put one or two slices of bread in the toaster (Fig. 3).
1
Select the desired browning setting. (Fig. 4)
2
-
Select a low setting (1-2) for lightly toasted bread and a high
setting (5-7) for darkly toasted bread.
-
Select the defrost function Ñ (settings 6 to 7, depending on the desired
browning degree) for toasting frozen bread.
Push the toasting lever down to switch on the appliance. (Fig. 5)
3
The toasting lever will only stay down if the appliance has been connected
to the mains.
Caution: The metal parts of the toaster become hot during toasting.
Do not touch them.
Note: You can stop the toasting process and pop up the bread at any time by
pressing the stop button on the toaster (Fig. 6).
To adjust the browning setting during toasting, turn the
4
browning control.
When the toast is ready, it pops up and the toaster switches off.
5
Remove the toasted bread. To remove smaller items, you can move
6
the toasting lever upwards a little further.
-
If bread gets stuck inside the toaster, remove the plug from the wall
socket and let the appliance cool down completely. Then carefully
remove the bread from the toaster.
Caution: Do not use a knife or another sharp metal tool to remove bread
from the toaster and do not touch the metal internal parts of the toaster.
