▪ When inserting the toast, ensure that the bread slices do not get jammed.
However, should this happen, first pull the power plug and then remove the
interference.
▪ Do not reach into the bread slots with your fingers or objects, such as forks,
knives, etc.
▪ Only operate the toaster in the upright position away from other objects.
▪ Do not cover the bread slot during toasting. Do not lay any bread slices or
rolls on the casing, as this causes the device to overheat.
▪ No liability is assumed for any damages in cases of misuse, improper operation
or unprofessional repairs. Claims under warranty are likewise excluded in such
cases.
Use
This toaster is suitable for standard slices of bread, slices of bread (up to 9x9 cm
in size), plaited yeast buns and similar bakery products with a maximum thickness
of 2,6 cm.
Only use bakery products without fillings and toppings such as butter and jam.
Start-up
The section of the power cable not in use can be wound up and stored on the
base of the appliance. Connect the power plug to a shockproof socket.
Prior to first use, carry out at least three toasting cycles without bread
and at maximum power, to remove the surface protection on the heating
elements. The smell released during this process is harmless, but you should
ensure good ventilation nevertheless. Always allow the appliance to cool
down a little before switching it on.
Insert the toast slices into the toasting slots. To avoid slices becoming jammed,
they should not be thicker than 2,6 cm. Insert small slices upright and next
to each other in a toasting slot; this will make it easier to remove them after
toasting.
To begin with set the control knob for the browning degree to medium level.
Push down the bread carriage lever. The appliance switches on and the bread
carriage is held down until the appliance switches off automatically after the
toasting time has elapsed. The toasted bread then pops out of the toasting slot
ready for removal.
Notes on the browning level
If the toast is too light in colour, select a higher browning level. If it is too dark,
set the control knob to a lower level. The figures 1 to 7 serve only for orientation
purposes. The higher the setting, the darker the browning level.
The toasting result may vary at the same setting depending on the type, size,
moisture and thickness of the bread slices. Therefore, select a lower setting when
toasting less moist bread, smaller slices or only one slice.
When toasting only one slice, the browning level on the side facing inwards will
be slightly more intensive.

Acrylamide is generated during excessive browning. Excessive browning of
the toast should therefore be avoided.
Interrupting the toasting process
Press the illuminated button
to interrupt the toasting process.
Warming / retoasting
If the warming button
is pressed immediately after switching on the appliance,
cold but already toasted bread will be crisped up and too lightly toasted bread
will be slightly retoasted.
Defrosting
If this button
is pressed directly after the appliance is switched on, the toas-
ting cycle will be extended automatically to toast frozen bread.
Removing the toast
With the integrated automatic lift mechanism, small slices of bread can also be
removed safely and easily.
Bread roll attachment
The toaster is fitted with an integrated roll attachment, which can be used by
pressing the button downwards.
Two rolls can be warmed up from either side on a medium setting in each case.
Rolls which are too dry should be moistened slightly beforehand - it works better
this way.
Crumb tray
Crumbs produced during toasting are collected in the crumb tray.
You can then pull the tray out of the appliance.
Cleaning and maintenance
Before cleaning, disconnect the appliance from the mains and allow the appliance
to cool down. Use a hard brush to remove crumbs sticking to the grids and the
heater. Do not tilt the appliance while you do this, or crumbs will spill from the
crumb tray into the inside of the toaster. Then pull out the crumb tray, clean it
and reinsert.
Never immerse the toaster in water. Wipe the outside of the appliance only with
a damp cloth and some washing-up liquid. Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaning
agents.
