BEFORE FIRST USE

   Wipe the toaster’s exterior with a clean, damp cloth. Remove and clean the crumb tray.

HOW TO USE

Ensure that the crumb tray is always in place before using the toaster. Do not force foods into the toaster; foods should easily and freely fit into the toast slots. Always be sure not to place multiple slices in one toast slot, and that the carriage inside the toast slot is up, before placing any food items inside.

TIPS:

• Differences in toasting times depend on the moisture level of each item being toasted.
• Extra-thick bread may require two cycles.
• When toasting items with pieces of fruit (i.e., cinnamon raisin bagels), remove any loose pieces of fruit so that they don’t fall into and get stuck inside the toaster.

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE

2. Wipe the toaster exterior with a clean, damp, soapy cloth. Do not use abrasive cleansers or cleaning materials.

TO CLEAN/REMOVE THE CRUMB TRAY:

1. Hold the toaster in the upright position; pull the crumb tray out from the side opposite the toasting controls by sliding it out and away from the toaster bottom (Fig. 1).
2. Empty the crumbs over a garbage can or sink, as crumbs will fall upon release of the tray.
3. To replace the crumb tray, slide it back into the toaster. A click will sound when the tray has locked into place properly.
4. It is recommended to clean the crumb tray regularly.

TO REMOVE LODGED TOAST:
If a piece of toast becomes lodged in the toaster, unplug the toaster and allow it to cool. Turn the toaster upside down and shake whatever is stuck loose.
