Your toaster makes toasting easy…..it will evenly toast variety of breads, toaster pastries

and waffles.

The thermostatically controlled heat selector lets you select the toasting...from light to dark.

BEFORE YOUR FIRST USE

Carefully unpack the product and remove all packaging materials, To remove any dust that

may have accumulated during packaging, simply wipe the toaster exterior with a clean,

damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleansers, Do not put the toaster, cord, or plug in water.

Check that the voltage on the appliance's rating plate corresponds to the voltage marked on

your mains supply meter. Before using for the first time, operate the toaster once or twice on

level 7 to eliminate the "new" smell. You can do this with the toaster empty.

USING YOUR TOASTER

1. Place your toaster on a flat, dry, stable surface.

2. Make sure that the lever is in the uppermost position, insert the plug into a standard

electrical outlet.

3. For ease of selection, the browning selector dial may be rotated to vary the toasting time

and therefore the degree of browning. Set anywhere on the band to suit the type of

bread. Setting 1 is the shortest toasting time. Setting 7 is the longest.

4. The handle will not latch if the unit is not connected to the mains, and may not latch if the

browning control is set to its minimum position. Press the toasting levers downward until

they lock into place. This will lower the bread into position and automatically begin

toasting. The toast will pop up when it has reached the selected colour. Should you

desire to stop the toasting before reaching the selected color, press the STOP button

and the toast will pop up.

5. DO NOT LIFT UP THE BREAD WARMER RACK IF YOU ARE TOASTING BREAD

IN THE TOASTING SLOTS.

PCT130 Rev.1 0801

SELECTING THE BROWNING LEVEL

Select the setting of your choice from the possible browning levels. The degree of browning

increases in relation to the numbers on the selection dial. For your guidance, the

relationship between the levels and the type of bread is as follows:

DIAL SETTING TYPE OF BREAD

1-3 Thin bread or using bread warmer rack

3-5 Ordinary bread

6-7 Whole meal bread

After having plugged the appliance in, press the bread carriage LEVER down until it

automatically locks.

The toast is automatically released when the previously selected browning level is reached.

If you wish to interrupt the browning process at any time, return the carriage knob to its

original position or push the STOP button.

Frozen Bread

Setting the browning level to your normal position, lower the bread carriage knob to start the

toasting, then press the Frozen button. Additional time will automatically be selected and the

frozen bread LED indicator will grow.

Reheat

If your bread has been cooled down inside the toaster, press the bread carriage knob to

lower the bread, then press the Reheat button. The bread will be reheat and the re-heat

LED will grow.

Bread Warmer rack

You can warm your bread with the bread warmer rack. Firstly, switch off the toaster, then

press down the bread warmer switch to lift up the bread warmer wire rack, place the bread

on the wire rack. Make sure that you leave enough space between the bread and the toaster.

Do not to cover the toaster rack with soft bread as it will block the ventilation and may

damage your toaster.

Finally switch ON the toaster by turning the selector dial between 1 -3, then press down the

LEVER.

Do not turn the selector beyond 3 when using bread warmer rack

as it may

cause overheating of the toaster or even melting of the plastic housing.

Cord Storage

The power cord can be wound around the cord storage when not in use.

SUGGESTIONS FOR BETTER TOASTING

To loosen broken or bent toast wedged in your toaster: Unplug the toaster, turn it upside

down and shake it gently. DO NOT insert forks or other sharp instruments as this may

damage the toaster and create a possible safety hazard.

Because everyone’s taste is different recommending exact toaster settings is difficult. A little

testing on your part will give you the best setting for your taste. You should check the heating

instructions on the packages of the convenience foods that you wish to toast.

Different breads have different moisture content requiring different settings for toasting.

Press the stop button at any time to check the colour.

PCT130 Rev.1 0801

All breads do not toast alike. When toasting dark or other rich breads use a slightly higher

setting than used for plain white breads. Use a lower setting for fruit loaves as well as sweet

bread.

The best toast is made from bread that is one or two days old.

When slicing bread by hand, slices should be cut evenly allowing for better, more even

toasting.

Toast thin sliced bread on a lighter toasting setting.

Toaster pastries should be toasted in your toaster using a low setting. DO NOT place

foil-wrapped food (remove all protective wrappings before placing in toaster) or pastries with

runny fillings or open frostings in the toaster slots.

Your toaster should only be used to toast bread that will fit

freely into the toaster slot.

CLEANING AND CARE INSTRUCTIONS

LET THE TOASTER COOL COMPLETELY BEFORE CLEANING.

1. Unplug toaster from electrical outlet.

2. DO NOT USE COARSE OR ABRASIVE CLEANERS OR STEEL WOOL to clean

your toaster. Never spray or apply cleaners directly to your toaster instead apply

cleaner to a soft cloth.

3. Wipe the outside of the toaster with a soft, damp cloth...polish with a soft, dry cloth.

CRUMB REMOVAL

It is important to remove crumbs from your toaster regularly. To remove loose crumbs inside

of the toaster, slide the crumb tray from the bottom of the far side of the toaster. Empty the

crumbs and slide the crumb tray back into the toaster. Do not operate the toaster without the

crumb tray in place.
