Read and follow these instructions before using your toaster.
Here are a few tips to help get the best out of your toaster.
• Different breads will toast at different rates, wholemeal bread takes longer than white bread,
fresh bread will take longer than day old bread. Remember to adjust your browning control
to allow for your particular type of bread.

• After the first round of toast, the elements and toaster body will be heated up, subsequent
rounds will take less time to toast.
• At any time during the toasting cycle you can lift the toasting lever and check the progress
of the toasting.
• Use the bagel setting to toast burger buns, bagels, muffins or tea cakes, this setting toasts
one side whilst gently warming the other.
• The thickest slice of bread that will fit in your toaster is 36mm thick. Forcing bread which is
too thick or too long into the slots will be difficult to eject once toasted.
• You may find it easier to use a ‘sandwich cage’ to toast smaller items. Inserting and removing
