• Avoid contact with moving
parts.
• Ensure that bread to be toasted
is the correct size for the toaster
and does not protrude above
the toasting slots. Ensure the
bread is not too thick or long
that it will jam or wedge the
bread carriage.
• Do not place toast directly on
top of toasting slots to warm
toast as this may prevent
correct air circulation and
damage the appliance.
• Do not touch hot surfaces.
Toaster surfaces are hot during
and after operation. To prevent
burns or personal injury,
always use protective hot pads
or insulated oven mitts, or
use handles or knobs where
available.
• Metal utensils such as a knife,
should not be inserted into
the toaster to remove jammed
toast, bagels or any other items
from the toaster. This can
damage the heating elements
as well as lead to electrocution.
• Do not attempt to dislodge
food when the toaster is
plugged in.
• Oversized foods, metal foil
packages, or utensils must not
be inserted into the toaster as
they may cause a fire or risk of
electric shock.

• Do not use the toaster without
the slide out crumb tray in
place. Do not allow crumbs
to build up in the crumb tray.
Failure to clean the crumb tray
regularly may result in a fire
hazard. To turn the toaster off,
remove the power plug from
the power outlet.
• Always remove the power plug
from the power outlet if the
toaster is not in use, before
attempting to move, before
cleaning, and when storing.
Allow to cool before putting on
or taking off parts.

BREVILLE ASSIST™ PLUG
Your Breville appliance comes
with a unique Assist™ Plug,
conveniently designed with a
finger hole in the power plug for
easy and safe removal from the
wall outlet. For safety reasons it
is recommended you plug your
Breville appliance directly into
its own electrical outlet on a
dedicated circuit separate from
other appliances. If the electric
circuit is overloaded with other
appliances, your appliance may
not function properly. Use in
conjunction with a power strip
or extension cord is not
recommended.
SHORT CORD
INSTRUCTIONS
Your Breville appliance is fitted
with a short power supply cord
as a safety precaution to prevent
personal injury or property
damage resulting from pulling,
tripping or becoming entangled
with a longer cord. Do not allow
children to use or be near this
appliance without close adult
supervision. Longer detachable
power supply cords or extension
cords are not recommended but
may be used if care is exercised.
If an 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,
(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 unintentionally
and (3) the extension cord
must include a 3-prong
grounding plug.

This may cause a fire as well as
lead to electrocution.
• This toaster is for toasting
bread, bagels, English muffins
and toaster pastries only.
Placing other food items in the
toaster can cause a fire as well
as lead to electrocution.

Functions
NOTE
This toaster is electronically controlled and will
not operate until the toaster is plugged into a
220-240 volt power outlet.
Before first use, remove any packaging material
or promotional labels attached to your toaster.
1. Insert the power plug into a 220-240V
power outlet. The LED toasting progress
indicator will illuminate from left to right,
then align to the selected browning setting
(indicated by the position of the browning
control slide). The toaster will revert to
stand-by mode after a few minutes if a
button is not pressed or the browning
control slide is not adjusted.
NOTE
When using the toaster for the first time, we
suggest toasting on the maximum setting
without bread.
The toaster may emit a thin smoke or distinct
odour on initial use. This is normal and not
detrimental to the performance of the toaster.
2. Place bread, bagels, English muffins etc into
each of the toasting slots. Ensure items for
toasting are not too large or too thick to fit
in the toasting slots.
3. There are 12 browning settings ranging
from ‘1’ (lightest) to ‘5’ (darkest). Select
the desired browning setting by adjusting
the browning control slide on the front
of the toaster. The LED toasting progress
indicator will illuminate and align to the
selected browning setting (as indicated by
the position of the browning control slide).
NOTE
When toasting bread for the first time, it is
suggested to toast on browning setting
'3' (7 LED's illuminated). Various types of
bread and personal preference may require a
different browning setting. For example, raisin
toast and white light-textured breads may
require a lighter setting, while heavier textured
rye breads may require a darker setting.
4. To start the toasting process, press down
the lever until it locks into place. The LED
toasting progress indicator (above the
selected browning setting) will flash and
start to gradually count down.
NOTE
Toasting can be stopped at any time by
pressing the CANCEL button. This will cancel
the operation and the carriage will move to the
raised position.
5. Once the toasting cycle is complete the
toast ready alert will sound
(refer to TOAST READY ALERT, page 10,
to adjust the volume). Remove the toast.
The LED toasting progress indicator will
re-illuminate to the previously selected
browning setting for a few minutes before
entering stand-by mode.
NOTE
To re-activate the toaster from
stand-by mode, press any button or move the
browning control slide.
The LED toasting progress indicator will
re-illuminate.

WARNING
Do not leave the toaster unattended when in
use as toast may jam.
In the unlikely event that bread, bagels,
English muffins or toaster pastries become
jammed in the toasting slots, all the buttons
and the LED toasting progress indicator
will flash and the elements will turn off.
Remove the power plug from the power outlet
and allow the toaster to cool completely
before carefully easing the bread out of the
slots. Take care not to damage the heating
elements. Do not use metal utensils.
A BIT MORE™ BUTTON
If your toast comes up too light, one press of
this button adds a little extra toasting time.
This feature can be selected before, during or
after the toasting cycle and can be used with
the CRUMPET/FRUIT BREAD and
FROZEN functions.
To use this feature during the
toasting cycle:
Press the A BIT MORE™ button. The button
surround will illuminate white when selected.
The toasting time will automatically increase
but will not illuminate more of the LED
toasting progress indicator. The A BIT MORE™
function can be cancelled by pressing the
A BIT MORE™ button again and the original
toasting cycle will continue.
To use this feature before or after the
toasting cycle:
Press the A BIT MORE™ button. The button
surround will illuminate white when selected.
Press down the lever until it
locks into place. The LED toasting progress
indicator will automatically align with
the lowest browning setting then flash
and count down for the additional
browning time.
CRUMPET/FRUIT BREAD BUTTON
The crumpet feature activates additional heat
to the middle heating elements to perfectly
toast the insides of your crumpet without
burning the outside.
To toast crumpets:
1. Place the crumpet into the toasting slots
with the inside of the crumpet facing
inwards as per the crumpet markings above
the middle heating elements of the toaster.
2. Select the desired browning setting by
adjusting the browning control slide
on the front of the toaster. There are
12 browning settings ranging from
'1' (lightest) to '5' (darkest).
3. To select the CRUMPET setting, press
the CRUMPET button and the button
surround will illuminate white. To start
the toasting process, press down the lever
until it locks into place.
NOTE
It is normal for the outside heating elements
to appear off or on a lower power during the
Crumpet setting. This ensures the inside
of your crumpet toasts without burning
the outside.
4. After the cycle has finished, press
the CRUMPET button to deselect
the setting if toasting other types
of bread.
