Other Consumer Safety Information  
To avoid a circuit overload, do not operate another high wattage appliance on the same circuit.  
The length of the cord used on this appliance was selected to reduce the hazards of becoming tan-  
gled in, or tripping over, a longer cord. If a longer cord is necessary, an approved extension cord may  
be used. The electrical rating of the extension cord must be equal to or greater than the rating of the  
toaster. Care must be taken to arrange the extension cord so that it will not drape over the coun-  
tertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or accidentally tripped over.

HOW TO TOAST  
1. Plug toaster into electrical outlet.  
2. Place bread in slots. Select toast shade and press down bread lifter.  
3. At the end of the toasting cycle, the bread will pop up automatically. Lift up on bread  
lifter to reach small bread.  
NOTE: The bread lifter will not latch down unless toaster is plugged in.  
4. To stop the toasting cycle sooner, lift up bread lifter or push the cancel button.  
TIPS AND TROUBLESHOOTING  
• Toasting is affected by the temperature of the bread. Room temperature bread may  
toast to a medium color on the medium setting. The same type of bread that has  
been refrigerated may require a darker setting to reach a medium color.  
• The moisture content will also affect toasting. Fresh bagels, made locally, will have a higher  
moisture content than bagels purchased in the bread section of the supermarket. The bagel  
setting only energizes the outside wall heating elements. A second, shorter toasting cycle  
may be needed to reach desired browness. Fresh bagels made locally may require two  
toasting cycles.  
• Because of the irregular surface of English muffins, they may require more than one  
toasting cycle. After toasting for one cycle on the darkest setting, if a darker shade is  
desired, adjust shade selector to a lighter setting and toast for a second cycle. Watch  
closely to avoid overbrowning. English muffins cut with a knife toast more evenly than  
English muffins split with a fork.  
• Many toasters have thermostats that must reset after toasting one cycle. The electron-  
ic controls of this toaster allow toasting batch after batch, with no waiting for the  
thermostat to reset.  
• To remove food that becomes lodged in food slots, disconnect from outlet and allow  
toaster to cool. Turn toaster upside down and shake. Do not use fork or other utensil that  
could damage heating element or result in risk of fire or electrical shock.  
• When toasting a single slice, you may notice variations in bread color from side to  
side.  
CLEANING YOUR TOASTER  
NOTE: If the toaster is used daily, the crumb tray should be cleaned weekly.  
1. Unplug toaster and let cool.  
2. Slide open crumb tray, discard crumbs, and wipe tray with clean cloth. Replace  
crumb tray.  
3. Wipe outside of toaster with a damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleansers that may  
scratch the surface of the toaster.
