A short power cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from entanglement or
tripping over a longer cord. Longer detachable power supply cords are available and
may be used if care is exercised in their use. If a longer detachable power cord or
extension cord is used (1) the marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be
at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance, and (2) the longer cord should
be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or table top where it can be
pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally. The electrical rating of the appli-
ance is listed on the bottom of the unit. If the appliance is of the grounded type, the
extension cord should be a grounded type 3 wire cord. This appliance has a polarized
plug. One blade is wider than the other. To reduce the risk of electrical shock this plug
will fit in a polarized plug only one way. If the plug does not fit, contact a qualified
electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.

BEFORE FIRST USE

Place the box on a large, sturdy flat surface. Carefully unpack your appliance and
remove all packaging material and literature. Remove any labels or stickers from the
appliance. To remove any dust that may have accumulated during packaging, you may
wipe the unit with a clean, damp cloth. Dry thoroughly. Do not immerse the appliance
in water or other liquid. Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaners. (See “Cleaning Your
Toaster” section of this manual for detailed instructions.) Keep all plastic bags away
from children. NOTE: It is recommended that you operate the toaster on a medium
setting without bread before first use. NOTE: As with all new heating elements, your
toaster may emit a slight odor when it is first switched on. This is normal and not cause
for concern.
