Cleaning

NOTE: If the toaster is used daily, the crumb tray should be cleaned weekly.

1.Unplug toaster and let cool.

2.Place the toaster on its side, as shown. Open the Crumb

Tray and wipe off with clean cloth, then close.

3. Wipe outside of toaster with a damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleansers that may scratch the surface of the toaster.

Tips and Troubleshooting

•Toasting is affected by the temperature of the bread, room temperature or frozen; the moisture content, fresh or several days old; and the size, thick or thin.

•To remove food that becomes lodged in food slots, disconnect from outlet and allow toaster to cool. Turn toaster upside down and shake. Do not use fork or other utensil that could damage heating element or result in risk of fire or electrical shock.

•The Dark Toast setting is the darkest shade of toast color. If a darker shade is desired, watch closely and toast for two cycles.

•When toasting a single slice you may notice variations in bread color from side to side.
