• R emove any stickers from the surface of the toaster and wipe the outside of
your toaster with a damp cloth.
• Insert the Removable Crumb Tray into the crumb tray slot.
• M ake certain that the Bread Carriage Lever is in the uppermost position
before plugging in the toaster's power cord.
• Select a location for the toaster. The location should be:
• A flat, heat-resistant, non-flammable surface.
• At least three inches away from walls or the back of countertops.
• A t least one foot away from any cabinet or shelving that may be above
the toaster.
• Away from flammable materials, such as curtains and wall fabric.
• Away from a gas stove flame or electric element.
• Plug the Power Cord into 120 Volt, 60 Hz AC outlet.
• P lug in toaster without inserting any food into the bread slots, push the
Bread Lever all the way down until it locks. (The carriage will not lock if
the toaster is not plugged into a power source.) The first toasting process
will preheat the new elements and burn off any dust which may have
accumulated during storage or manufacturing. It is normal for this burn off
to create an odor.

freshness to ensure even toasting.
