IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using any electrical appliance, basic safety precautions should always be followed

including the following:

1. Please read the instructions carefully before using any appliance.

2. Always ensure that the voltage on the rating label corresponds to the mains

voltage in your home.

3. Incorrect operation and improper use can damage the appliance and cause injury

to the user.

4. The appliance is intended for household use only. Commercial use invalids the

warranty and the supplier can not be held responsible for injury or damage

caused when using the appliance for any other purpose than that intended.

5. Avoid any contact with moving parts.

6. This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with

reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and

knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning

use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.

7. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

8. Close supervision is required when any appliance is used near or by children or

invalids.

9. Check the power cord and plug regularly for any damage. If the cord or the plug

is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or a qualified person in

order to avoid an electrical hazard.

10. Do not use the appliance if it has been dropped or damaged in any way. In case

of damage, take the unit in for examination and/or repair by an authorised service

agent

11. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not immerse or expose the motor

assembly, plug or the power cord to water or any other liquid.

12. Never immerse the unit in water or any other liquid for cleaning purposes.

13. Remove the plug from the socket by gripping the plug. Do not pull on the cord to

disconnect the appliance from the mains. Always unplug the unit when not in

use, before cleaning or when adding or removing parts.

14. The use of accessory attachments that are not recommended or supplied by the

manufacturer may result in injuries, fire or electric shock.

15. A short cord is provided to reduce the hazards resulting from becoming

entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.

16. Do not let the cord hang over the edge of a table or counter. Ensure that the cord

is not in a position where it can be pulled on inadvertently.

17. Do not allow the cord to touch hot surfaces and do not place on or near a hot gas

or electric burner or in a heated oven.

18. Do not use the appliance on a gas or electric cooking top or over or near an open

flame.

19. Use of an extension cord with this appliance is not recommended. However, if it

is necessary to use an extension lead, ensure that the lead is suited to the power

consumption of the appliance to avoid overheating of the extension cord,

appliance or plug point. Do not place the extension cord in a position where it can

be pulled on by children or animals or tripped over.

20. This appliance is not suitable for outdoor use. Do not use this appliance for

anything other than its intended use.

21. DO NOT carry the appliance by the power cord.

22. Do not leave this appliance unattended during use. Always unplug the unit when

not in use or before cleaning.

23. Always operate the appliance on a smooth, even, stable surface. Do not place

the unit on a hot surface.

24. The manufacturer does not accept responsibility for any damage or injury caused

by improper or incorrect use, or for repairs carried out by unauthorised

personnel.

25. In case of technical problems, switch off the toaster and do not attempt to repair

it yourself. Return the appliance to an authorised service facility for examination,

adjustment or repair. Always insist on the use of original spare parts. Failure to

comply with the above mentioned pre-cautions and instructions, could affect the

safe operation of this machine.

26. When using only one of the toasting slots, don’t let anything get into the other slot,

as both slots will become “live” when you lower the bread carriage handle.

27. Don’t let the toasting slots become covered during toasting.

28. If bread gets jammed, unplug the toaster, let it cool down fully, then carefully

remove the bread that’s jamming it. Don’t use anything sharp, such as a knife or

fork, you may damage the elements.

27. Don’t toast “buttered” items or try to make toasted sandwiches in the toaster, as this

will create a fire hazard.

28. Don’t use torn, curled up, or broken slices of bread, as these may jam the eject

mechanism.

29. Unplug the toaster when not in use, before moving and before cleaning. Let it cool

down fully before cleaning and storing away.

30. Clean the crumbs out of your toaster frequently. A build up of crumbs is unhygienic,

and could cause a fire hazard.

31. Don’t use the toaster unless the crumb tray is in place and closed.

32. Don’t use the toaster for any purpose other than those described in these

instructions.

PARTS DIAGRAM

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Before&using&for&the&first&time&

1. Turn the browning control to the highest setting (6).

2. Operate the toaster without any bread inside, to cure the new elements to

remove the protective coating. This may smell a bit, but it’s nothing to worry

about. Ensure the room is well ventilated.

Toasting&bread&

1. Place the toaster upright, on a stable, level, heat resistant surface, clear of curtains and

other combustible materials. Don’t put it on or near anything that could be damaged

even by moderate sources of heat.

2. Plug the cable into the power socket.

3. Place bread into the toasting slots (maximum thickness of bread 27mm).

4. Turn the browning control to the required setting (1 = light, 6 = dark)

5. Press the bread carriage handle down fully – it won’t lock down unless the toaster is

connected to the electricity supply.

6. The eject light will come on.

7. When it’s done, the toast will pop up, the eject light will go off, and the elements will

turn off automatically.

Eject&

To stop the toaster before it’s finished, press the eject button. The toast will pop up,

and the elements will turn off.

Frozen&bread&*

1. This feature takes the guesswork out of toasting frozen bread.

2. Leave the browning control at your favoured setting, put the frozen bread into the

slots, lower the bread carriage handle and then press the * button.

3. The * light will come on, and the toasting time will be altered automatically to give

the same degree of browning you get with unfrozen bread.

Caution&don’t try to defrost bread – you’ll probably damage the toaster

a) Toasting frozen bread changes ice to steam, which escapes via the toasting slots

b) Defrosting bread on a low setting changes ice to water, which drips into the

toaster, over the electronics and maybe the elements which will cause damage to the toaster.

Reheating&toast&

1. You must only reheat plain, unbuttered toast and you should reheat toast at the

lowest setting.

2. Turn the browning control down to reheat.

3. Press the bread carriage handle down fully – it won’t lock down unless the toaster is

connected to the electricity supply.

4. The reheat light will come on.

5. When it’s done, the toast will pop up, the reheat light will go out, and the elements

will turn off automatically.

Extra&lift&!

After toasting smaller slices of bread the bread carriage handle may be

raised further, to allow them to be removed more easily.

Hints&and&tips&

1. When toasting more than one slice of bread, use slices of similar size, thickness and

freshness.

2. Old (yesterday’s) bread contains less moisture, so makes crisper toast.

3. Old or thin bread cooks faster than fresh or thick bread, so use a lower setting.

4. Sweet bread products (tea cakes, fruit loaf, etc.) brown much more quickly than

ordinary bread, so should be toasted on a lighter setting.

Crumbs&

1. Clean the crumbs out of your toaster frequently, to avoid a build up of crumbs. This

is unhygienic and could cause a fire hazard.

2. Unplug the toaster and let it cool down, then remove and empty the crumb tray.

3. Wipe it with a damp cloth, dry and then replace it in the toaster.

4. Don’t use the toaster unless the crumb tray is fitted and closed.

Jamming&

If the bread jams in the toaster, the contacts will open and will turn off the power to the

elements. You should still unplug the toaster and leave it to cool down before trying

to release the jam.
