5 EJECT
8 To stop the toaster mid-cycle, press the 5button.
9 The toast will pop up, and the elements will switch off.
f FROZEN BREAD
10 Leave the browning level at your favoured setting, insert the
frozen bread, lower the lever, then press the fbutton.
11 The flight will come on, and the toasting time will be altered
automatically to give the same degree of browning you get with
unfrozen bread.
H EXTRA LIFT
12 After toasting small items (bagels, crumpets, etc.) the lever may
be raised further, to allow them to be removed more easily.
C HINTS AND TIPS
13 Old (yesterday’s) bread has less moisture, so makes crisper toast.
14 Old bread, thin slices, and sweet bread products (tea cakes, fruit
loaf, etc.) brown faster – use a lower setting.
C CARE AND MAINTENANCE
15 Unplug the toaster and let it cool down.
16 Wipe outer surfaces with a damp cloth.
