handling hot materials and allow metal parts to cool
before cleaning. Do not place anything other than the
Bun Warmer Accessory provided, on top of the Toaster
while it is operating or while it is hot.
CAUTION: This appliance generates heat during use. Proper
precautions must be taken to prevent the risk of burns,
fires or other damage to persons or property.

POLARIZED PLUG
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the
other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to
fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully
in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a
qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in
any way.
SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS
A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting
from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
Longer detachable power-supply cords or extension cords are
available and may be used if care is exercised in their use.
If a longer detachable power-supply or extension cord is used,
(1) the marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord
should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the
appliance, and (2) the cord should be arranged so that it will not
drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on
by children or tripped over accidentally.
ELECTRIC POWER
If the electric circuit is overloaded with other appliances, your
appliance may not operate. It should be operated on a separate
electrical circuit.
PLASTICIZER WARNING
CAUTION: To prevent Plasticizers from migrating from the
finish of the counter top or table top or other furniture, place
NON-PLASTIC coasters or place mats between the appliance
and the finish of the counter top or table top.
Failure to do so may cause the finish to darken, permanent
blemishes may occur or stains can appear.

INTRODUCTION
The new TOASTEC™ SYSTEM crisps bread rapidly on the outside,
while keeping it moist on the inside.
Lowering the Toasting Lever closes the Bread Guides, holding the
bread centrally in the toasting slots. TOASTEC™ Shutters at the top
of the bread guides block the escape of heated air, accelerating
the browning process and cutting the amount of energy used.

Operating Instructions
BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME
1. Carefully unpack your Toaster and remove all packaging
materials. Remove any labels from the outer stainless steel
surfaces.
2. To remove any dust that may have accumulated during
packaging, simply wipe the Toaster exterior with a clean,
damp cloth.
3. Do not use abrasive cleansers.
4. Do not put the Toaster, cord or plug in water.
5. Before making toast for the first time, operate the Toaster
without bread and with the Browning Selector set at the
maximum setting. This will help to burn off any dust etc. which
may have accumulated on the elements. The new elements
may give off an unpleasant smell but this should not be a
cause for alarm. Make sure the room is well ventilated while
doing this.
TO OPERATE TOASTER
1. Position the Toaster on a firm, level, heat-resistant surface,
clear of curtains, draperies, and other combustible materials.
WARNING: Do not place the Toaster on or near items that may
become damaged even by moderate sources of heat.
2. Unwrap power cord from Cord Storage Wrap on the
underside of the Toaster.
3. Plug the power cord into a 120V AC electrical outlet.

TOASTING BREAD
1. Center the bread (maximum thickness of bread 1-1/4 inches
/35mm) in the Toasting Slots.
2. Set the Browning Selector to the degree of browning required.
NOTE: The Browning Control is electronic — moving the Browning
Selector after toasting has started will not change the
degree of browning.
3. Press the Toasting Lever down fully — the Lever will not lock
down unless the Toaster is plugged in to an electrical outlet.
The CANCEL Light will illuminate, and will stay on until the
toasting cycle is stopped, either automatically, when the toast
is ready, or manually, if you press the CANCEL Button.
4. When the toasting cycle is completed, the toast will pop up.
5. EXTRA LIFT: When toasting small items (bagels, crumpets, etc.)
the Toasting Lever may be raised further, to allow them to be
removed more easily.
CANCEL BUTTON
If you wish to stop the toasting cycle before it is complete, press
the CANCEL Button. The elements will be turned off, the toast will
pop up, and the CANCEL Light will go out.

TOASTING BAGELS
This feature takes the guesswork out of toasting bagels.
Leave the Browning Selector at your favorite setting. Split the
bagel, put one half in each toasting slot, lower the Toasting Lever,
then press the BAGEL Button. The BAGEL Light will illuminate, and
will stay on until toasting is complete.
The toasting time will be altered automatically to give your bagel
the same degree of browning you like on your toast.
REHEATING TOAST
This Toaster has a special setting for reheating toast, which
overrides the Browning Selector.
To reheat toast which has cooled, place it in one of the toasting
slots, lower the Toasting Lever, then press the REHEAT Button. The
REHEAT Light will illuminate, to show that this feature is operating,
and the toast will be given a short burst of heat before popping up.
NOTE: Only reheat plain, unbuttered toast.
FROZEN BREAD
Leave the Browning Selector at its normal setting, place the
frozen bread into the toasting slots, lower the Toasting Lever, then
press the FROZEN Button. The FROZEN Light will illuminate, and will
stay on until toasting is complete.
The toasting time will be altered automatically to give the same
degree of browning you get with unfrozen bread.

THE BUN WARMER
Place the Bun Warmer on top of the Toaster, with the Legs inside
the toasting slots. This will keep the TOASTEC™ Shutters open,
allowing the heat to reach the Bun Warmer.
1. Place the buns, croissants, etc., to be warmed on top of the
Bun Warmer.
2. Turn the Browning Selector between the 2 and 3, and lower
the Toasting Lever.
NOTE: When using the Bun Warmer, do not set the Browning
Selector above 3.
CAUTION: Do not use the Bun Warmer to warm frozen, buttered,
coated, iced or filled buns.
3. When the Toasting Lever pops up, remove the warmed buns.
PASTRY
For best results, follow the instructions printed on the pastry
package. If the package does not have instructions, position the
Browning Selector in the middle. Some pastries may require a
second toasting cycle.
NOTE: Do not use this Toaster for toasting pastry items with runny-
type frosting or open fillings.
REMOVING LODGED TOAST
If a piece of toast becomes lodged in the Toaster, unplug the
Toaster and allow to cool. Press the Toasting Lever down. Turn the
Toaster upside down, and shake the toast loose.
IMPORTANT: NEVER USE A FORK OR SHARP-EDGED UTENSIL TO
REMOVE TOAST, BECAUSE THAT MAY DAMAGE THE
HEATING ELEMENT OR CAUSE INJURY.

HINTS FOR BEST RESULTS
• When toasting more than one slice of bread, use slices of
similar size, thickness and freshness.
• Old or thin bread will cook faster than fresh or thick bread, so
use a lower setting.
• Do not use torn, curled up, or odd-shaped slices of bread as
these may jam the lever mechanism and could catch fire.
• Sweet bread products (tea cakes, fruit loaf, etc.) brown much
more quickly than ordinary bread, and should be toasted on
the lighter settings.
IMPORTANT POINTS
• Remove all protective wrappings from food before placing in
Toasting Slots.
• For best results, clean Crumb Tray frequently.
• Different breads require different color settings. Press CANCEL
at any time to check toast color.
• Do not block top openings. Do not place any object
(other than the Bun Warmer Accessory provided) over
the top openings.
• Do not toast buttered bread or buttered pita bread. Melted
butter will cause fire.
• Bread which has been toasted, but not buttered may be
reheated. Use the REHEAT feature.
• Never immerse Toaster in water.
• This appliance is for HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY!
• There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Do not attempt to
service this product yourself.
• Never use a fork or sharp-edged utensil to remove
toast, because that may damage the heating element or
cause injury.
