Important safety
instructions
The use of any electrical appliance
requires the following common sense safety
rules.
Primarily there is danger of injury or
death and secondly the danger of damage
to the appliance. These are indicated in the
text by the following two conventions:
WARNING: Danger to the person!
IMPORTANT: Damage to the appliance!
In addition we offer the following safety
advice.
Location
•Always locate your toaster away from
the edge of the worktop.
•Ensure that the toaster is used on a firm,
flat, heat resistant surface.
•Ensure that sufficient space is left above
and around all sides of your toaster to
allow air to circulate.
•IMPORTANT: Do not use too close to
curtains, draperies, walls, cupboards
and other flammable materials.
•WARNING: Do not use underneath
cupboards.
•Do not use outdoors.
Mains lead
•The mains lead should reach from the
socket to the toaster without straining
the connections. Reduce the length of
the excess lead by using the cord
storage facility.
•Do not let the mains lead hang over the
edge of the worktop where a child could
reach it.
•Do not let the lead run across an open
space e.g. between a low socket and
table.
•Do not let the lead run across a cooker
or hot area which might damage the
cable.
Personal safety
•Do watch your toaster during use.
•WARNING: Do not immerse cord,
plug or toaster in water or other
liquid.
•WARNING: Do not touch the top of
the toaster or other hot parts
during or after use, use handles or
knobs.
•WARNING: Do not insert oversize
foods, metal, foil packages or
utensils into the toaster.
•WARNING: Do not attempt to
dislodge food when the toaster is
plugged in and never insert cooking
utensils into the slots.
•IMPORTANT: Do not place bread or
other items on top of the slots as this
may damage the toaster and creates a
fire hazard.
Children
•Never allow a child to operate this
appliance.
•Children are vulnerable in the kitchen
particularly when unsupervised and if
appliances are being used or cooking is
being carried out.
•Teach children to be aware of dangers in
the kitchen, warn them of the dangers of
reaching up to areas where they cannot
see properly or should not be reaching.
Other safety considerations

plug or after the appliance malfunctions
or has been damaged in any manner.

contains no user-serviceable parts. Call
our helpline for advice.

Before first use
•Before using the toaster for the first time
operate the toaster without bread. Note:
the bread carriage lever ›will not stay
down unless the toaster is plugged in
and the wall switch is on. Ventilate the
room during this period.
•As with all new electric heating elements,
your toaster emits a ‘new’ smell when it
is first switched on. This is quite normal
and not a cause for concern.
Instructions for use
1Use your toaster without bread, this will
burn off any dust which may have
accumulated during storage. Select the
desired level of browing (1 to 9). This
setting is indicated on the front of the
toaster by the blue LED. When the
browning control is rotated away from
the user the blue LED moves up the
strip. At the very top it is on setting 9
and towards the bottom its on setting 1.
The unit defaults to setting 3 when first
plugged in.
•For best results ensure the bread slices
are of even thickness, freshness and
size. Remember that stale bread toasts
more rapidly than fresh and thin bread
toasts quicker than thick. See additional
points for more information.
2After selecting the desired level, place
your bread in the slots ‹and depress
the bread carriage lever ›downwards
until it locks.
3After the set time has been reached the
bread will pop up automatically ready for
removal from the slots. The bread
carriage lever will have returned to its
upper position and the heating element
will have switched off.
•If the bread in your toaster becomes
jammed disconnect your toaster at the
socket, allow it to cool, then remove the
bread.
•When not in use, switch your toaster off
at the mains and remove the plug from
the socket.
WARNING: Do not wrap the cable
around the main body of the appliance
during or after use.
Using the re-heat button
If your toast has popped up and gone
cold, the toaster offers a re-heat facility. To
use, press the re-heat button ‚, then
depress the bread carriage lever. A red light
on the front panel will illuminate and the
toaster will operate for a short period
re-heating the bread.
Using the cancel button
If you wish to interrupt the toasting
process, press the cancel button fi. You
can also press any of the function buttons
fi,‡,·,‚to cancel toasting.
Using the frozen button
To toast frozen bread do not adjust the
browning control from your normal
preferred setting, place the bread normally
in the bread slots, press the frozen button
‡then depress the bread carriage lever. A
red light on the front panel will illuminate.

Using the bun warmer
Place the bun rack on top of the toaster
ensuring it is securely in place.
Place the buns or other items onto the
bun warmer. Set the browning control to
setting 2. Depress the bread carriage lever
until it holds down. Wait for the toaster to
switch off automatically or press the cancel
button to switch the toaster off before
removing the buns.
WARNING: Take care not to touch
the metal of the bun warmer as it will
be hot.
Do not put more than two buns on the
bun warmer at any one time.
Using the bagel button
To toast bagels there is no need to
adjust browning control from your preferred
setting, the toaster will automatically toast
for an extended time period when you use
the bagel function.
Cut the bagels in half. Place the bagel
halves normally in the slots, then press the
bagel button ·and depress the bread
carriage lever.
Using the toast rack
The bun warmer can also be used as a
toast rack.
Additional points
•In order to achieve uniform browning, we
recommend you wait a minimum of 30
seconds between each toasting, so that
the control can be automatically reset.
•If toasting one slice only, you may need
to adjust the browning control to a
slightly lower setting.
•Note you will also notice a slight
variation in toast colour on one side of a
single slice.
•Stale bread toasts more rapidly than
fresh bread. Therefore, the browning
control should be set at a lower setting
than usual.
•All sorts of bread can be used as well as
teacakes, small rolls etc. Slices should
not however be so thick as to cause
burning or jamming within the bread
slots.
•When toasting 2 or more slices it is
recommended they are of equal size and
freshness.
•Allow the toaster to cool fully before
putting away.

toasting chamber and remove the crumb
