BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME
Unpack the toaster and remove all self-adhesive stickers. Read the
instructions for use and follow them carefully. Unwind the mains cord
completely. Wipe over the outside of the appliance and the mains cord
with a damp cloth. Dry Fig. 1 . Plug in. Turn the control knob to the bun
warming position Fig. 8 . Press down the bread control lever Fig. 4 .
Operate the toaster once or twice empty at this setting to get rid of the
“ new smell ”. Ventilate the room.
TOASTING BREAD
With the bread control lever in the raised position, place a slice of bread
in the slot Fig. 2 . Turn the control knob to a position between 1 and 7,
according to the freshness of the bread Fig. 3 .
Adjusting the toasting for the desired result:
1 Barely toasted
2 - 3 Lightly toasted
4 - 5 Well browned
6 - 7 Very brown
Push down the bread control lever. This will lock into the down position
and the support grids will automatically centre the slices between the
heating elements for perfect toasting on both sides Fig. 4 .
This model is electronic. The bread control lever will only lock in the
down position if the toaster is plugged in.
Reduce the setting of the control knob if you are only toasting one
slice.
When toasting is complete, the bread control lever will unlock and the
toasted slices of bread will pop up.
STOP/EJECT FUNCTION
To interrupt toasting or warming, press the “ Stop ” button Fig. 6 .
Never attempt to force the bread control lever up, you run the risk
of damaging the mechanism.
HI-LIFT FUNCTION
In order to grasp small slices of toast more easily, lift the bread control
lever higher once toasting has fi nished Fig. 5 .
WARMING ROLLS, BUNS, CROISSANTS, ETC.
Place the rolls, buns or croissants directly on top of the toaster
Fig. 7 .
Do not use the toaster to toast bread and heat buns at the same time.
Do not use the heat-diffusing top to cook or defrost frozen food. Do not
heat fatty or sugary food that might melt and drop into the toaster as
this may risk a fi re or damage the toaster.
Turn the control knob to the bun warming position Fig. 8 . Push down
the bread control lever until it locks.
The hot air from the toaster will be spread out by the heat-diffusing
top to heat the buns evenly. When the toaster stops, the bread control
lever will pop up.
To warm the other side, turn over the rolls, buns or croissants, using
an oven glove or bread tongs if necessary (gloves and bread tongs not
supplied), on the heat-diffusing top while it is still hot Fig. 9 . Leave for
1 or 2 minutes or start the toaster again, as required.
The heat-diffusing top becomes very hot. Avoid touching it.
LOOKING AFTER AND CLEANING YOUR TOASTER
Clean your toaster regularly.
After use and before cleaning, maintenance or putting it away, discon-
nect the appliance and allow it to cool.
To clean the crumb collector drawer: pull out the drawer and empty the
crumbs. This should be done regularly, ideally after each use (toasting
or heating) Fig. 10 . After each use, check that the drawer is correctly
inserted and pushed home.
If crusts, crumbs or other debris remain trapped in the toaster or
between the heating elements, turn it upside down to allow the crumbs
to fall out of the top.
Never insert a metal object in the toaster; this can cause serious
damage.
Wipe over the outside of the toaster and the supply cable with a damp
cloth. Dry Fig. 1 .
To care for your toaster, never use aggressive products (soda based
oven cleaner, metal cleaner, bleach etc.) or metal utensils, scourers
or abrasive pads.
Do not use metal (stainless steel, copper etc.) cleaners on the heat-
diffusing top. Use a soft cloth or a damp sponge with washing up liquid
and then dry.
Do not wash the crumb collector drawer in the dishwasher.
STORAGE
Wait until the toaster has cooled completely before putting it away,
otherwise considerable damage can be caused, especially in confi ned
spaces.
To tidy away the mains cord, wind it around the cord storage in the
bottom of the toaster Fig. 11 .
The packaging is recyclable but can be useful to transport the toas-
ter or return it to an approved service centre (see list attached).
