OPERATION
• Before using your appliance for the first time, check if it is clean (see “Maintenance and
cleaning”) as it comes into direct contact with bread. Check if any object has fallen into
the slot.
• In the first time, connect the appliance only to a mains earthed wall socket. A grommet
on the bottom of the appliance enables to maintain the cord by positioning it to the
backside of the appliance.
•
CAUTION:
It is normal if some smoke or smell emanates from the appliance when using it
for the first time. Therefore, we advise you to use your appliance empty once before the
first use.
• Place the bread slices in the slot (for French bread, cut a loaf shorter than the slot, then
cut it in two pieces along its length). Your appliance is provided to receive French bread,
but also pieces of toast or other bread slices if their thickness and their length are shorter
than the one of the slot.
• Press down the bread carriage handle until it stops. Then release the pressure and the
handle will stay in the lower position, which means that the heating process has begun. If
the handle comes up immediately, check if the appliance is plugged in as it blocks only
when the unit is plugged in.
• You can adjust the browning intensity to obtain a more or less toasted bread by
positioning the browning control selector to one of the degrees marked from 1 to 6.
Therefore you only have to turn clockwise to increase the intensity, and anticlockwise to
decrease it. The higher the number is, the more toasted the bread will be.
• During the functioning, if you think that the bread is toasted enough or for another reason,
you can break the heating process, simply by pressing the cancel button.
• The reheat button allows you to reheat already toasted bread or to toast bread which is
not toasted enough during a short time without modifying the browning degree.
• The defrost button allows you to toast bread that has been frozen beforehand.
• At the end of the cycle, the bread carriage handle unlocks and you can take the toast
out. Your toaster has an extra lift function, i.e. you can lift the bread carriage handle even
a little more when it has unlocked in order to facilitate the withdrawal of the toast that is
ready.
• Always unplug the appliance after use and let it cool down before handling or storing it.
• When storing your appliance, wind the cord around the cord storage facility underneath
the appliance and attach the end of the cord in the notch.
RACK FOR BUN WARMING
Your appliance is provided with a bun warmer. To warm the buns, just place the support on the
top of the toaster.
MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
• Before attempting any cleaning operation, make sure the toaster is unplugged from the
supply socket and fully cooled down.
• To remove bread crumbs, slide the crumb tray situated on the side of the appliance. To
open it, slide it horizontally. To close it, proceed inversely.
• Never use sharp objects to clean. Doing so could damage the appliance.
• To clean the exterior surfaces, simply wipe over with a soft damp cloth. On no account
must the toaster be immersed in water or any other liquid.
• All other maintenance and repair should be performed by a qualified technician. No
guarantee claims will be accepted if the appliance has been opened inappropriately.
