plug, if it is not working properly, if it has been dropped
or damaged, or dropped into water. To avoid the risk
of electrical shock, do not disassemble; return the
Toaster to the retail location where it was purchased
for examination, repair, or adjustment. Incorrect
reassembly can cause a risk of electrical shock when
Toaster is used.
7. Use this appliance only for its intended use as
described in this manual. Do not use accessory
attachments not recommended by Philips Electronics

in a fire hazard.
13. Oversized foods, metal foil packages, or utensils must
not be inserted in toaster as they may involve a risk of
fire or electrical shock.

flammable material, including curtains, draperies, and
walls, etc, when in operation. Do not operate under

break off pad and touch electrical parts, involving a risk
of electrical shock.

INSTRUCTIONS
SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS
This Philips Toaster has a short cord to reduce the hazards
of becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
An extension cord may be used if the rating is equal to or
greater than the rating of the Toaster. Use an extension cord
rated 13 amperes or greater. Care must be taken to arrange
extension cord so that it will not drape over countertop or
tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped
over unintentionally.
Operating the Toaster and another appliance at the
same time from the same electrical circuit could cause an
electrical overload condition, which would blow the fuse
or trip the circuit breaker.
WARNING:
• Always use the Light setting for pastry items because
frosting and fillings can ignite. If frosting or filling does
drip into Toaster well, follow instructions in “Cleaning”
before using the Toaster again to prevent risk of fire.
• Immediately unplug Toaster if fire or smoke is
observed.
• Please read and save this Instructions For Use booklet.
SPECIAL POLARIZED
PLUG INSTRUCTIONS

wider than the other.To reduce the risk of electric shock:
• Plug will fit into polarized outlet only one way.
• If plug does not properly fit outlet at first, reverse it.
• If plug still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician.
