Troubleshooting
Toaster does not toast.
• Check to make sure electrical outlet is working and Toaster is plugged in.
Odor and/or smoke come from Toaster.
• Odor and smoke are normal during first use of most heating appliances. These should not be present after first toasting.
Toast is not desired shade.
• Toasting is affected by temperature and moisture content of bread. Room-temperature bread may toast to a medium color on medium
setting. Same type of bread that has been refrigerated may require a darker setting to reach a medium color.
• Frozen program adds time to toasting cycle to defrost food; try turning Frozen program on for darker toast or off for lighter toast.
Pieces of food are stuck in Slots.
• Unplug Toaster from outlet and allow it to cool. Use a nonmetal utensil to loosen food from Bread Guides, allowing it to fall into Slide-Out
Crumb Tray. Empty Slide-Out Crumb Tray daily.
Bread will not pop up.
• If food is jammed, press Bread Lifter down as far as it will go. Then press CANCEL or manually raise Bread Lifter.
Bagel setting is not toasting.
• Bagel setting is designed to toast only one side of bagel. Ensure that cut sides of bagel are facing away from each other when inserting
into Extra-Wide Longer Slots.
One side of bread is darker than the other.
• This toaster is optimized to evenly toast all slices. When toasting one slice, try toasting using 1 Slice program, which will reduce power
on one side of bread.
Frozen food items get too brown.
• Some foods have a higher sugar content and brown more easily. Frozen program lengthens toasting time to allow for defrosting.
Try toasting without using Frozen program.
• Bread products can easily dry out in freezers. If frozen items are in an open box or have been frozen for a long period of time,
try toasting without Frozen program, or choose a lighter shade setting.
Tall homemade or extra-long artisan breads do not fit in Slots.
• Bread may need to be trimmed to fit in Slots.
Heating Elements are not glowing red.
• While toasting, Heating Elements do not have to glow red to be working properly; food will still be toasting.
Heating Element turns off during toasting cycle.
• 1 Slice program is designed to turn off center Heating Element during cycle for more even toasting.
