CONTROLS
Variable Browning Control
The Browning Control Dial regulates the colour of the toast. Lower settings produce
lighter toast and higher settings produce darker toast.
When setting the browning control, remember that dryer or thinner slices of bread
will toast quicker, and will require a lower setting. Very fresh bread and thick slices
will require a higher setting.
Cancel Function
The toasting process can be stopped at any time by turning the Browning Control Dial
to the cancel function ().
High Lift Feature
The high lift feature uses the loading handle to help you to remove the toast. When
toasting has nished, simply lift the loading handle upwards from its rest position
to raise the toast. This is ideal for smaller items such as crumpets.
NOTE: In the unlikely event that the bread becomes jammed switch o the toaster
at the power outlet before carefully easing out the bread, taking care not to damage
the heating element. DO NOT use a knife or other metal utensil to remove bread
from the toasting slot.

USING YOUR TOASTER
Selecting Toast Colour
1. The Browning Control Dial is located at one end of your Toaster. Simply turn the
Dial to the desired toast colour, (1) for light toasting, (6) for dark toasting.
2. For your rst toasting, it is best to position the Browning Control Dial in the
middle (3-5), and then adjust each subsequent toasting to your preference.
Toasting
1. Place your Toaster on a at, level surface. Insert one slice of bread into each slot.
2. Press the Toasting Lever located on one end of your Toaster downward until it
locks into place. This will lower the bread into position and automatically begin
toasting. The toast will pop up when it has reached the selected colour. (For best
results, allow toaster to cool for one or two minutes between toasting cycles).
3. The Toaster will be ready to toast again when the toasting lever locks into place
when pushed downward.
4. Should you desire to stop the toasting before reaching the selected colour, turn
the Browning Control Dial to the Cancel function, ( )and the toast will pop up.
5. When you press the Toasting Lever down at the start of the toasting cycle, or
when you use the Cancel Function to raise the toast, you may notice a small
ash of light in the toast slot at the end opposite the toasting control. This ash
of light, caused when the power switch opens and closes, is normal with any
high-wattage appliance.
Extra Lift Feature
To remove smaller breads and bagels, or items such as crumpets or English muns,
lift the carriage control lever approximately 20mm above the resting position.
WARNING
Do not place pastry items with runny-type frosting or open lling in toaster.
To protect against risk of re, do not put rice cakes in this Toaster.

A GUIDE TO TOASTING
• Toasting is a combination of cooking and drying the bread. The heating element
causes the moisture to evaporate from the bread and then dries the bread
and toast is the result.
• Moisture levels dier between one type of bread and another, which in turn
will vary the toasting times.
• When toasting raisin or other fruit breads; remove any loose raisins or fruit
from the surface of the bread before putting it into your toaster. This will
prevent fruit pieces from falling into your toaster or sticking to the guard
wires in the toasting slot.
