5 Installation and operation
5.1 Installation
Unpacking / Positioning
•Unpack the appliance, remove all external and internal packaging elements and
shipment safeguards.
CAUTION!
Choking hazard!
Prevent children from accessing package materials, for instance: plastic
bags and EPS.
•If the appliance is covered with a protective film, remove it. Remove the film
slowly, so no glue residues are left. Remove any glue residues with the use of a
suitable solvent.
•Be careful not to damage the rating plate and warning labels fixed on the
appliance.
•Never place the appliance in humid or wet environment.
•Place the appliance in a way making the connections easily accessible, so that
they may be quickly disconnected if such a need arises.
•The appliance should be placed on surfaces that are:
–even, with sufficient bearing capacity, resistant to water, dry and resistant
to high temperatures;
–sufficiently large, and thus enabling usage of the appliance with no
problems;
–easily accessible;
–well ventilated.
•Maintain sufficient clearance from table edges. The appliance might turn over
and fall down.
•Never place the appliance directly underneath a hanging cupboard as hot air
moves upwards.
•Maintain a minimum clearance of 20 cm from all sides of the appliance to
provide for convenient usage and good air circulation.

Installation and operation
12 / 20 100292
EN
Power supply connection
•Verify if technical data of the appliance (see rating plate) correspond with the
local electric power grid specification.
•Connect the appliance to a single, properly grounded mains socket with
protective contact. Do not connect the appliance to a multi-socket.
•The power cord should be laid in a way preventing anyone from threading on it
or tripping against it.
•Do not use the appliance with an external timer or remote control.
5.2 Operation
Important Tips for Optimal Toasting Result
•At the same settings of the browning time, the toasting result varies depending
on the different characteristics of bread (moisture, type of bread, size and
thickness of slices).
•Set shorter browning time when toasting dry, smaller or thinner slices or when
toasting only one slice.
•Set longer browning time or carry out 2 toasting processes when toasting thicker
bread slices.
•The cut surface of bread slices should be as smooth as possible in order to
achieve a uniform toasting result.
•Remove loose crumbs or protruding bread components, e.g. grains, before
toasting because they can burn.
•Let longer browning time for the slices with an uneven surface.
•For uniform result of toasting, toast one type of bread at a time.
•Take into account that during several operations one after another the toaster
becomes hotter and toasted slices become more browned accordingly. If
necessary, set shorter browning time for subsequent toasting processes.
•The browning time can be changed also during the toasting process by rotating
the timer.
