Operating Instructions
Technical Data
Rated voltage: 220 - 240V ~50 Hz
Power consumption: 800 W
Important safety instructions
To avoid potentially fatal risks
through electric shock:
• NEVER insert cutlery or other metallic objects
into the toaster slots.
• Ensure that the appliance never comes into contact
with water when the power plug is inserted into
a wall socket, especially if it is being used in a
kitchen and close to the sink.
• Ensure that the power cable never becomes wet
or moist when the appliance is in use. Lay the
cable such that it does not get clamped or other-
wise damaged.
• Arrange for defective power plugs and/or cables
to be replaced immediately by qualified technicians
or by our Customer Service Department.
• After use, always remove the power plug from
the wall socket, this prevents the unintentional
switching on of the appliance.
To avoid the risks of fire or injury:
• The appliance can become hot when it is in use.
Therefore, only touch the operating elements.
• Bakery products can burn! You should therefore
NEVER locate the appliance close to or under-
neath inflammable objects, especially not under
curtains or suspended cupboards.
• The appliance may not be used in close vicinity
to flammable material.
• NEVER cover the toaster when it is in use.
• Never leave the appliance unsupervised whilst
in use.
• This appliance is not intended for use by individuals
(including children) with restricted physical,
physiological or intellectual abilities or deficiences
in experience and/or knowledge unless they
are supervised by a person responsible for their
safety or receive from this person instruction in
how the appliance is to be used.
• Children should be supervised in order to make
sure that they do not play with the device.
• Operate the appliance only on a stable, non-
slippery and level surface.
• Do not use an external timing switch or a separate
remote control system to operate the appliance.
• Unwind the power cable completely from the
cable winder before using the appliance.
Tips on usage
• Toast mixed-flour breads at higher browning
levels than white bread. Matured, dry bread
browns faster than fresh bread.
• Avoid using slices that are too big or too thick,
as these can easily become jammed in the
appliance.

Attention:
In the event of a malfunction and when cleaning
the appliance, remove the power plug from the
wall socket. Risk of electrical shock!
• Loosen jammed slices of bread with a blunt wooden
object (e.g. a wooden spatula or spoon).
Do NOT touch the heater elements.
• Differences in bread sorts, moisture and the thickness
of individual slices influence the browning of the
toast. Therefore the bread for toasting should be
kept in sealed packaging until required.

Adjusting the browning level
The desired level of browning, from "light" (1) to

Take note that, subject to the demand made
on the toaster, the level of browning can vary
