• Ensure the voltage rating of your mains
power supply corresponds to the voltage
requirements of the appliance (220V-240V
50/60Hz AC). Always connect the
appliance directly to a separately
protected mains power supply wall socket
with a protective conductor (earth/

be damaged, it must be replaced by an
authorised service center. Do not attempt
to repair the power cord!
• Do not immerse the appliance or power
cord in water or any other liquid. Do not
spill or drip any liquids on the appliance
or power cord to avoid risk of fire and
electric shock. When liquids are spilled on
the exterior of the appliance, immediately

FIRST USE
Unpack the appliance carefully and check if
there are any parts that damaged or missing.
CAUTION: It is important to carefully remove
all packing and shipping materials (in the
slots and under the On/O handle) as well
as any price tags, but do not remove any
warning or model labels on the appliance.
Ensure that there are no foreign objects
(i.e., packing materials) in the slots before
operating the appliance.
IMPORTANT: The appliance is operating with
an electronic control. The On/O handle
only engages in the toasting position if the
appliance is connected to the power supply
and switched on.
When using the appliance for the first time,
you may notice a fine smoke emitting as the
components are heating for the first time.
There is no need for concern. To prevent the
smell and taste of your food being aected,
you should heat the appliance on browning
level 6 before placing any cakes and pastries
into the slots (see: Operating Your Toaster).
If the burnt smell occurs again on a later use,
clean the toaster (see: Care and Cleaning).
If the burnt smell persists stubbornly, even
after thoroughly cleaning the appliance,
return the appliance to an authorised service
center for examination and repair.
OPERATING YOUR TOASTER
WARNING: Always completely unwind the
power cord before connecting the appliance
to the power supply. Ensure, there are no
foreign objects (i.e., shipping materials) in the
slots. Do not insert any foreign objects such as
knives, spoons, or other cooking utensils in the
slots to avoid risk of fire, electric shock, burns
or damage. Always handle with care, especially
when removing jammed bread slices.
IMPORTANT: Ensure that the crumb tray
is in place before operating the appliance.
Otherwise, crumbs may become charred on
the bottom of the appliance and stick to the
surface.
1. Prepare the appliance for use: Completely
unwind the power cord, place the appliance
on an appropriate surface (level, dry and
heat- resistant) and connect the power plug
into an appropriate power outlet.
2. Insert a slice of bread in each slot of the
appliance.

3. Turn the Browning control to select your
desired browning: 1 (light) to 6 (very dark).
For the first use, it is recommended to
select a medium browning level (example:
3 or 4; see Tips for Best Results).
4. Carefully push down the On/O handle
until it engages. The CANCEL button
illuminates. Note: The On/O handle will
not engage unless the toaster is connected
to the power supply.
5. Toasting can be interrupted at any time by
pressing the cancel button. NOTE: Never lift
the On/O Handle to stop/cancel toasting.
Tips for Best Results
• You may cancel the toasting process at any
time; simply press the CANCEL button.
• The required browning level depends on
your special liking, the type of bread, and
the freshness of said bread. For example:
a short toasting time (low browning level)
is sucient for toasting raisin pastry and fine
white bread, but for toasting rye bread, you
must select a higher browning level to get a
similar result.
• Smaller bread slices may be removed easily
by lifting the On/O handle to the HIGH
LIFT position (approx. 2cm above the idle
position).
CAUTION!: Hot surface, the surface of the
appliance will get hot during use/operation,
care must be taken while the appliance is
being used or shortly after it's been used due
to residual heat.
WARNING: Never insert your fingers in the
slots while the appliance is connected to the
power supply. Always switch o and unplug
the appliance, waiting for it to cool down
before removing any jammed bread
or crumbs.
• If bread sticks or jams in the slots, switch o
(CANCEL button) and unplug the appliance
to let it cool down. Remove the bread slices
carefully, do use knifes or similar sharp
objects to remove jammed bread slices.
Ensure not to touch the heating elements on
the sides of the slots to avoid damage.
• It is recommended to empty the crumb tray
after each use to avoid crumbs becoming
charred and sticking to the appliance. (See:
Care and Cleaning).
• Do not use the appliance without the crumb
tray in place.
• If one of the function buttons (DEFROST,
REHEAT) is pressed, the appliance
automatically switches back to normal
operation after the function has completed.
