PARTS & ASSEMBLY

PARTS

Your RETRO 2-SLICE TOASTER comes fully assembled.

BROWNING CONTROL LEVELS:

1 = LIGHTEST to 5 = DARKEST

CORD LOCATION

The cord wraps around brackets underneath the unit.

HOW TO OPERATE

• Place the 2-SLICE TOASTER on a stable surface near an electrical outlet before starting.
• Always make sure that the cord is away from any water source.
• Plug the appliance into an electrical socket.
• Place two pieces of bread into the Toasting Slots.
• Select desired heat setting (1 = Lightest to 5 = Darkest).
  NOTE: The BAGEL function allows for the toasting of bread, bagels, and muffins on one side only (internal side), while the other (external side) remains warm. Bagels and muffins must be sliced in half before toasting.
• Press the lever down to start the cooking cycle.
• When cooking is completed, the bread will automatically pop up.
• To shorten the cooking time, simply turn the Browning Control Knob to a lighter setting.
• To stop cooking before the cycle has completed, press the CANCEL button.
• Unplug the appliance and allow the unit to cool completely.
  Once the unit is cool, remove and clean the Crumb Tray. By following these simple instructions, your 2-SLICE TOASTER will be fun for friends, family and kids of all ages!

HELPFUL TIPS FOR TOASTING

The 2-SLICE TOASTER is designed to use only two pieces of bread or two halves of one bagel at a time. DO NOT force bread into toasting slots. All pieces of bread are not the same; therefore, you will need to adjust the variable heat controller accordingly. Room temperature bread will cook more quickly than bread just removed from the refrigerator.

BURNING/SMOKING

If the machine is burning or smoking during cooking, press the CANCEL button on the sides of the machine to end the cooking cycles. Smoking may also be caused by excess crumbs stuck inside the machine. To prevent smoking, make sure to empty and clean the Crumb Tray after each use.

CLEANING & MAINTENANCE

Make sure the unit is unplugged before cleaning. Allow all parts to COOL to the touch. To prolong the life of your 2-SLICE TOASTER, please follow these simple instructions for maintenance. Never place the appliance in a dishwasher.

• Make sure the unit is completely cooled and unplugged before storing or cleaning.
• Do not try to remove bread if it gets jammed inside the toaster slots without first unplugging the unit.
• Clean the outer surface with a soft, damp cloth when it is unplugged and completely cooled.
• Dry all parts with a soft, non-abrasive towel or cloth.
• Do not operate without at least one piece of bread in place.
