basic safety precautions should
always be followed including the
following:
•
READ AND SAVE ALL
INSTRUCTIONS.
•Do not touch hot surfaces. Use
handles or knobs.
•To protect against electrical
shock NEVER immerse the entire
toaster or the electrical cord in
water or any other liquid.
•Close supervision is necessary
when any appliance is used by or
near children.
•Unplug from outlet when not in
use and before cleaning. Allow to
cool before putting on or taking
off parts and before cleaning.
•Do not operate any appliance
with a damaged cord or plug or
after the appliance malfunctions
or has been damaged in any
manner. Return appliance to the
nearest authorized service
facility for examination, repair,
or adjustment.
•The use of accessory
attachments is not
recommended by the appliance
manufacturer and may cause
injuries to the user.
•Do not use outdoors.
•Do not let cord hang over edge
of table or counter, or touch hot
surfaces.
•Do not place on or near a hot gas
or electric burner, or in a heated
oven.
•Always attach plug to appliance
first, then plug cord into the wall
outlet. To disconnect, turn any
control to “off”, then remove
plug from wall outlet.
•Do not use appliance for other
than intended use.
•Oversize foods, metal foil
packages or utensils must not be
inserted in a toaster as they may
create a risk of fire or electric
shock.
•A fire may occur if toaster is
covered by or touching
flammable material, including
curtains, draperies, walls, and the
like, when in operation.
•Do not attempt to dislodge food
when toaster is plugged in. Do
not attempt to dislodge food
with metal utensils while the
toaster is operating and/or
plugged into the electrical
outlet. Doing so will lead to
serious personal injury.
•When the appliance is plugged
into the electrical outlet, and
moreover, while it is turned on,
never place hands, utensils, or
any other object into the bread
toasting slots.
•Do not attempt to plug the
appliance into the electrical
outlet with wet or damp hands.

SHORT CORD PURPOSE
NOTE:
A short power cord is
provided to reduce the risk of
personal injury resulting from
becoming entangled in or
tripping over a longer cord.
Longer power-supply cords or
extension cords are available and
may be used if care is exercised in
their use.
If an extension cord is used: (1)
the marked electrical rating of
the extension cord should be at
least as great as the electrical
rating of the product; (2) the
extension cord should be
arranged so that it will not drape
over the countertop or tabletop
where it can unintentionally be
pulled on or tripped over by
children or pets.
POLARIZED PLUG
If this appliance is equipped with
a
polarized plug
(one blade is
wider than the other), please
follow the below instructions:
To reduce the risk of electrical
shock, this plug is intended to fit
into a polarized outlet only one
way. If you are unable to fit the
plug into the electrical outlet, try
reversing the plug. If the plug
still does not fit, contact a
qualified electrician. Never use
the plug with an extension cord
unless the plug can be fully
inserted into the extension cord.
Do not alter the plug of the
product or any extension cord
being used with this product. Do
not attempt to defeat the safety
purpose of the polarized plug.
B
EFORE FIRST USE
•Carefully unpack the product
and remove all packaging
materials. Clean the toaster
thoroughly before using for
the first time. This serves to
remove any dust that may
have accumulated during
packaging. Do not use
abrasive cleansers when
cleaning. Do not immerse the
toaster or electrical cord in
water or any other liquid.
(See the “HOW TO CLEAN”
section for further
instructions.)
•During the first few uses you
may notice smoke and/or a
slight odor. This is normal and
should disappear with
subsequent use.

complete.
•Never force foods into the toasting slot. Foods should fit freely
between the guide wires.
•Uneven toasting is usually due to bread slices of uneven thickness.
•If you are toasting a single slice of bread, set the browning control to a
lower setting than normal so the toast won’t be over toasted.
CAUTION:
The wide toast slot helps to accommodate a variety of different
bread widths, as well as muffins, tea cakes, crumpets and bagels. However,
you should not force items into the slot which are clearly too large. If an
item does become jammed, switch toaster off and unplug from outlet
immediately. Once cooled, turn toaster upside down and gently shake to
remove whatever is stuck. Do not insert sharp or metal objects such as
knives or forks, as this may damage the heating element. Do not attempt to
dislodge items while the toaster is in operation or when it is plugged into an
electrical outlet, doing so will lead to serious personal injury.

HOW TO USE THE RADIO
Ensure that the toaster is plugged
into a power outlet.
Antenna:
•For FM, extend and rotate the
antenna for the best FM
reception. Keep the antenna
retracted when not being
used to avoid damage.
•
DO NOT position the antenna
over the bread slots.
•For AM reception the FM
aerial is not used and a built-
in aerial is used instead,
therefore, it might be
necessary to re-position the
toaster for optimum
reception.
On/Off/Volume Control:
•Press the On/Off/Volume
Control once to turn radio on
or to turn the radio off. The
radio automatically selects
the last source/station
selected.
•Rotate the On/Off/Volume

to cycle through the five preset
equalizer settings.
AM/FM/AUX Selector (BAND):
•Press the Band button to
select the desired waveband
or AUX input. The display will
indicate the selected mode.
When switched to the
auxiliary input, the station
frequency will not be
displayed.
•To listen to an auxiliary
device, such as an MP3
player, plug it into the AUX
input jack located on the side
of the toaster. You will need
a lead with a 3.5mm stereo
jack on one end and a
connector suitable for your
auxiliary device on the other
(lead not supplied).
•Select AUX using the Band
button and playback will be
heard through the toaster
speaker.

NOTES
•Toasting is a combination of
cooking and drying the
bread. Different types of
bread have different
moisture levels, which can
result in varying toasting
times.
•For slightly dry bread, use a
lower setting than you
normally would.
•For very fresh bread or whole
wheat bread, use a higher
setting than normal.
•Thickly cut pieces of bread
(including bagels) will take
longer to toast, sometimes
significantly longer, since
more moisture must be
evaporated from the bread
before toasting can occur.
Very thick pieces may require
two cycles.
•When toasting raisin or other
fruit breads, remove any
loose raisins, etc. from the
surface of the bread before
placing into the toaster. This
will help prevent fruit pieces
from falling into the toaster
or sticking on the guide wires
in the slot. Before toasting
bagels, slice each bagel into
two equal halves.
•The toaster is designed to
heat the whole toasting
chamber for two slices, so it
is preferred to operate the
toaster with two slices.
•Exercise caution when
toasting pastries. The filling
can become quite hot long
before the surface of the
pastry toasts fully.
•When the cycle is complete
the bread carriage will raise
the toast up. To terminate
the toasting cycle before it is
completed, simply press
down the cancel button.
Storage:
• Always let your toaster cool down completely prior to storing,
especially if
it is stored in a tightly enclosed space.
•Store the toaster with the cord wound up underneath the base.

injury.
•Keep the toaster unplugged
from the outlet when it is not
in use.

storage or for use.
4. Never wrap the cord around
the sides of the toaster. Wrap
the cord around the storage
cleats found beneath the
toaster.
Crumb tray - Remove crumbs after each use.
The crumb tray should be emptied regularly as a build-up of crumbs could
be a potential fire hazard.
•First, make sure the toaster is completely shut-off, unplug it from the
electrical outlet, and allow it to cool down thoroughly.
•The crumb tray is located on the bottom of the side opposite of the
control panel.
•Slide out the crumb tray, discard the crumbs and wipe the tray clean
