General Safety Instructions
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
READ CAREFULLY AND KEEP FOR FUTURE REFERENCE
Read this manual thoroughly before first use, even if you are familiar with this
type of product. The safety precautions enclosed herein reduce the risk of fire,
electric shock and injury when correctly adhered to. Keep the manual in a safe
place for future reference, along with the completed warranty card, purchase
receipt and carton. If applicable, pass these instructions on to the next owner of
the appliance.
Always follow basic safety precautions and accident prevention measures
when using an electrical appliance, including the following:
Electrical safety and cord handling
• Voltage: Make sure your outlet voltage and circuit frequency correspond
to the voltage stated on the appliance rating label and your outlet socket is
properly earthed. If this is not the case, do not use the toaster.
• Water: To protect against fire and electric shock, do not immerse the cord,
plug or any non-removable parts of this toaster in water or other liquid, or
expose the electrical connections to water. Ensure your hands are dry before
handling the plug or switching on the appliance.
WARNING: If the toaster falls or accidentally becomes immersed in water,
unplug it from the wall outlet immediately. Do not reach into the water!
• Damage: Check the power cord regularly for visible damage. If the cord is
damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its authorised service
centres or appropriately qualified personnel in order to avoid any hazards.
WARNING: Do not pick up or operate the appliance if the cord, plug or housing
is damaged, or after it malfunctions or has been dropped or damaged in any way.
In case of damage, contact the after sales support line for advice.
• Power cord: Do not kink, bend, strain or damage the power cord and protect it
from sharp edges and heat. Do not let it touch hot surfaces. Do not let the cord
hang over the edge of a table or benchtop.
• No extension cord, no timer: Do not use this toaster with an extension cord,
plug adaptor, external timer or separate remote control system.
• Disconnect: Unplug the toaster from the outlet when it is not in use and
before cleaning. Grip the plug when disconnecting, do not pull the cord.
• RCD: Unless your home is already fitted with a residual current device (safety
switch), we recommend installing an RCD with a rated residual operating
current not exceeding 30mA to provide additional safety protection when
using electrical appliances. See your electrician for professional advice.

Getting Started
Before first use
• Unpack: This product has been packaged to protect it against transportation
damage. Unpack the appliance and keep the original packaging carton and
materials in a safe place. It will help prevent any damage if the product needs
to be transported in the future, and you can use it to store the appliance when
it is not in use. In the event the carton is to be disposed of, please recycle all
packaging materials where possible. Plastic wrapping can be a suffocation
hazard for babies and young children, so ensure all packaging materials are
out of their reach. Dispose of any plastic wrapping safely.
• Documentation: Make sure you have read and understood all instructions
and warnings in this manual. Refer to the Product Overview, opposite, to
familiarise yourself with the product and identify all parts. Pay particular
attention to the safety instructions on the previous pages.
• Cord: Unwind the power supply cord to its full length and inspect the cord
and plug for damage. Inspect all other parts of the appliance for visual
damage. Do not use the appliance if anything appears to be damaged or not
working properly. In case of damage, contact our after sales support centre
using the details at the bottom of the page.
• Clean: Remove any adhesive labels and wipe the outside of the toaster with a
damp cloth. Make sure there is no packaging material remaining in the slots.
• Preliminary use: Keeping the safety instructions from the previous pages in
mind, place the toaster on an appropriate surface and plug it into an easily
accessible wall outlet.
• Set the browning control to the maximum level (Fig. 1).
• Push down the lever and let your toaster heat up
without any bread to burn off any remnants from
transport and the manufacturing process.
• After a short cooling down period, your toaster is now
ready for use.

3). The "Stop" button indicator will illuminate; press it any time to stop toasting.
Knob position Browning level
1 - 3 For thinly sliced, or slightly dry bread
3 - 5 For fresh, medium thick slices of white or wholemeal bread

Toasting bread
• Make sure the crumb tray is properly in place before using the toaster. It is
located underneath the heating elements and can be accessed from the side
of the toaster opposite the controls (Fig. 2).
• Place the toaster on an even and heat-resistant surface, connect it to a
properly installed wall socket and switch on power to the outlet.
• Place two slices of bread into the bread slots. (If toasting one slice only,
choose any slot and use a lower browning level.)
• Set the browning level with the browning control knob (Fig. 3). The higher the
number, the longer the toasting time and the darker the toast. (See page 12 for
additional toasting tips.)
NOTE
• This toaster automatically adjusts the slot width when the toasting lever is
pushed down to accommodate slices of different thickness.
• The lever will only stay down when the toaster is connected to the power
outlet and the power is switched on.
• Press the "Stop" button at any time to stop the toasting process.

Instructions (Cont.)
• When the toast is ready, the lever moves up and the toaster switches off
automatically. You can now remove the bread from the toaster.
• If toasting more bread, allow the toaster 15 to 20 seconds to cool down
before beginning the next toasting cycle so the electronically controlled
thermostat can reset.
• When you have finished with the toaster, pull out the crumb tray and clean it.
CAUTION!
Do not touch the metal parts of the toaster as they become hot during toasting.
Extra functions
The toaster has extra buttons (Fig. 4) for
reheating toast, toasting frozen bread and
toasting bagels (or thinner bread rolls),
and a Stop button which you can press to
stop the toasting process at any time.
There is also an extra lift function to help you access the
bread after toasting. Gently lift the lever upwards (Fig. 5).
Reheat: Use this function to reheat bread that was
toasted earlier.
• Put the toasted bread back into the bread slots.
• Select browning level "1" and push down the lever until
it locks in place.
• Press the "Reheat" button. The reheat indicator light
comes on and stays illuminated during the process.
Defrost: Use this function to toast frozen bread slices.
• Put one or two slices of frozen bread into the bread slots.
• Select the browning level and push down the lever until it locks in place.
• Press the "Defrost" button. The defrost indicator light comes on and stays
illuminated during the process.
Bagel: Use this function to toast bagels or thinner bread rolls. On this setting
higher heat will be delivered to the outside elements, cooking one side of the
bread product more than the other side.
• Put a bagel (or other suitable bread product) into the bread slots with the side
to be toasted facing outwards.
• Select the browning level and push down the lever until it locks in place.
• Press the "Bagel" button. The bagel indicator light comes on and stays

FAQs and Troubleshooting Guide
Problem Solution
The toaster is not
working.
Check the power connection and ensure the plug is
properly inserted in the outlet.
Bread is stuck in the
toaster.
Unplug the toaster and let it cool down. Then carefully
remove the slice or slices from the toaster. You may
need to hold the toaster over a sink and shake it gently
to help loosen stuck bread. Do not use a knife or other
sharp metal tool to remove the bread. Do not touch
the metal parts inside the toaster.
If the bread became stuck because it was too thick,
slice it a little thinner in future.
The toast is too
dark, or too light.
The selected browning level is too high or too low.
Select a different setting.
The toaster emits
smoke.
The set browning level is too high for the type of bread
toasted. Press the "Stop" button to stop the cycle.
Ensure the crumb tray is clean.
Check to make sure no large crumbs are caught in the
slot. Turn the unplugged unit upside down over the sink
and shake gently to remove any crumbs.
Bread ejects very
quickly.
Push down the toasting lever completely.
Make sure power is switched on at the outlet.
Make sure to select an appropriate browning level.
Smaller pieces do
not pop up enough.
Gently lift the lever upwards to help you remove smaller
pieces of toast once the toasting cycle is complete.
Some tips for perfect toasting
• Bread products with a very uneven surface (such as English muffins) will
require a higher setting.
• Thickly cut pieces of bread will take longer to toast since more moisture must
be evaporated from the bread before toasting can occur.
• When toasting raisin or other fruit bread, remove loose raisins from the surface
of the bread before placing the slices into the toaster. This will help prevent
pieces from falling into the toaster or sticking on the guard wire in the slot.
• If you are toasting a single slice of bread, select a lighter browning setting than
usual. The toaster is designed to heat the whole toasting chamber for two slices.
By reducing the time for toasting a single slice, it will not be over-toasted.
