too big, as they may become stuck in the
toaster. The thickness of the slices to be
toasted should not exceed 144 mm.
∙ In case of problems or malfunctions
during use, and before cleaning,
always remove the plug from the wall
socket.
∙ To remove a slice caught in the slot, use
a blunt wooden implement (e.g. a brush
handle). Never touch the metal heating
elements.
Before using for the fi rst time
∙ Clean the toaster thoroughly (see
General care and cleaning).
∙ Switch on the toaster without any
bread inserted and go through at least
fi ve toasting cycles at the maximum
temperature setting.
∙ Allow the toaster to cool down between
cycles.
∙ When switched on for the fi rst time, the
toaster may emit a slight smell and a
little smoke. For that reason, adequate
ventilation should be ensured by opening
windows or balcony doors.
Adjusting the degree of browning
The desired degree of browning can be
varied by turning the adjustable browning
control knob.
Light: turn the control knob anti-clockwise.
Dark: turn the control knob clockwise.
In the case of sliced bread specifi cally
intended for toasting, we recommend a
browning control setting of 3 to 4.
Operation
∙ After adjusting the browning control, insert
the bread into the toast slot and press the
operating lever down.
∙ Once the desired degree of browning
is reached, the toaster will switch off
automatically and the slices are ejected
and can be removed.
∙ To achieve regular browning when
toasting several slices in succession,
allow the toaster to cool down for 60 - 90
seconds after each cycle.
∙ Do not cover the toast slot during
operation.
Interrupting the toasting cycle
If you want to interrupt the toasting cycle,
push the operating lever upwards.
Warming up buns, rolls etc
∙ To warm up buns, rolls or other bakery
items, push the slide control towards the
toast slot to raise the bread roll holder.
∙ Place the items to be warmed up on
the top, adjust the browning control to a
medium setting and then push down the
operating lever to switch on the toaster.
∙ Once the browning cycle is complete and
the appliance has automatically switched
off, turn the roll or bread over and repeat
the cycle.
∙ After use, return the bread roll holder
to the rest position by pushing the slide
control back.
∙ Do not place the items directly on the
toast slot.
General Care and Cleaning
∙ Before cleaning the appliance, ensure it is
disconnected from the power supply and
has cooled down completely.
∙ To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not
clean the toaster with water and do not
immerse it in water.
