SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!
OTHER CONSUMER SAFETY INFORMATION
This appliance is intended for household use only.
To avoid a circuit overload, do not operate another high wattage
appliance on the same circuit.
WARNING! Shock Hazard: This appliance has a polarized plug
(one wide blade) that reduces the risk of electric shock. The plug
fits only one way into a polarized outlet. Do not defeat the safety
purpose of the plug by modifying the plug in any way or using an
adaptor. If the plug does not fit, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit,
have an electrician replace the outlet.
The length of the cord used on this appliance was selected to reduce
the hazards of becoming tangled in, or tripping over a longer cord.
If a longer cord is necessary, an approved extension cord may be
used. The electrical rating of the extension cord must be equal to
or greater than the rating of the appliance. Care must be taken to
arrange the extension cord so that it will not drape over the counter-
top or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or accidentally
tripped over.
12. Do not cook, warm, or toast rice cakes, fried foods, non-bread
items or toaster pastries. Toaster pastries should be heated in a
toaster oven broiler. Do not heat any food product that has been
spread or iced with margarine, butter, jelly, frosting, syrup, or
other spread. Follow Toasting Guide.
13. Failure to clean crumb tray may result in a fire hazard.
14. Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a
heated oven.
15. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.
16. The use of accessory attachments not recommended by the
appliance manufacturer may cause injuries.
17. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter, or touch hot
surfaces, including the stove.
18. Before unplugging toaster, make sure bread lifter is in the OFF
position.
19. Do not use outdoors.
20. Do not use toaster for other than intended use.
21. This product is for household use only.
