∙ The appliance and its
power cord must be kept
well away from children
under 8 at all times.
∙ Caution: Keep any packaging materials
well away from children – these are
a potential source of danger, e.g. of

heat-resistant surface.
∙ In order to prevent damage to the
housing, do not position the appliance
on or near hot surfaces or open flames
such as hot-plates or gas flames.

surfaces become very hot during
operation. Burns can occur from
touching the hot parts.
∙ Every time the appliance is used, the
main body including the power cord as
well as any attachment fitted should
be checked thoroughly for any defects.
Should the appliance, for instance, have
been dropped onto a hard surface, or if
excessive force has been used to pull
the power cord, it must no longer be
used: even invisible damage may have
adverse effects on the operational safety
of the appliance.
∙ Do not allow the power cord to touch hot
surfaces.
∙ Do not let the power cord hang free.

- in case of any malfunction,
- before cleaning the appliance.
∙ When removing the plug from the wall
socket, never pull on the power cord;

damage results from improper use, or if
these instructions are not complied with.
Operation
General information
∙ Caution: The operating lever locks
down only when the plug is inserted.
∙ Do not use slices which are too thick or
too big, as they may become stuck in
the toaster. The thickness of the slices
to be toasted should not exceed 14 mm.
∙ In case of problems or malfunctions
during use, and before cleaning,
always remove the plug from the wall
socket.
∙ To remove a slice caught in the slot, use
a blunt wooden implement (e.g. a brush
handle). Never touch the metal heating
elements.
