Placing
•
Unwrap the power cable from the cable winder in the underside of the appliance.
•
Pass the cable through one of the two cable guides on the underside of the appliance.
This will prevent jamming during usage.
•
Place the toaster on a dry and level surface.
Before taking into use
Heat the appliance up at least five times at the maximum setting without the insertion of
bread slices.
Please take note:
•
The operating button only engages when the power cable is connected to a power
socket.
•
With the first usage a slight smell can arise (minimal smoke development is also
possible). This is normal and dissipates after a short time. Provide for sufficient
ventilation.
Adjusting the browning level
•
The desired level of browning, from "light" (1) to "dark" (6) can be adjusted infinitely
with the browning regulator of the toasting time electronics.
•
Take note that, subject to the demand made on the toaster, the level of browning can
vary somewhat with an unvarying adjustment of the browning regulator! The less the
number of slices inserted, the higher is the browning level. Thus, if you are not
intending to toast many slices, always adjust the browning regulator a little lower.
Tips on usage
•
Toast mixed-flour breads at higher browning levels than white bread. Matured, dry
bread browns faster than fresh bread.
•
Avoid using slices that are too big or too thick, as these can easily become jammed in
the appliance.
•
In the event of a malfunction and when cleaning the appliance, remove the power plug
from the wall socket. Risk of electric shock!
•
Loosen jammed slices of bread with a blunt wooden object (e.g., a wooden spatula or
spoon). Do NOT touch the heater elements.
•
Differences in bread sorts, moisture and the thickness of individual slices influence the
browning of the toast. Therefore, the bread for toasting should be kept in sealed
packaging until required.
Toasting
•
NEVER cover the toaster slots when operating the toaster! There is a danger of fire!
The appliance could be irreparably damaged!
•
After setting the desired browning level, insert the bread into the toaster slots.
