•When the toaster is used for the first time, set the browning control to
the lowest setting gradually increasing the setting until you find the
setting that toasts the bread to your required level. During first use
there may be some smoke from the toaster, this is absolutely normal
and will clear with use.
Toasting
•To make toast place the bread in the toasting slots.

with a dry, soft cloth. Avoid using scouring powder or other
abrasive cleaners as these may scratch or dull the unit’s surface.
