OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Due to the commercial stainless steel construction, you may notice that a “cold” toaster requires more toasting time than a “warmed-up” toaster. Our specially designed electronic controls will automatically adjust to these conditions, altering the toast cycle for either frequent or infrequent use. The more the unit is used and the stainless steel warms up, the faster it will toast until the miminum cycle rate is reached. Once you find the optimum setting for your toasting requirements, there is no need to continually adjust the setting.

NOTE: THIS TOASTER IS NOT DESIGNED FOR BAGELS. If your toast production varies - white bread to rye to sourdough - it may be necessary to make adjustments for the various products using the heat setting (0-10). We suggest a few test cycles with various types of products to determine your desired settings. A midpoint number is recommended for your initial setting. If you desire darker toast, rotate the knob to a higher number, or rotate to a lower number for lighter toast.Some experimentation may be required to obtain specific results for individual products. (Dryness of bread, voltage differences, and sugar content all will have an effect on toast color. Whole grain, rye, and other breads with lower sugar content will require a higher setting to produce medium toast.)

1.Place bread product into the slots. NOTE: One or two slices (of the same thickness) may be placed in each individual toasting slot. I toasting two different products at the same time, be sure each slot is loaded with a similar thickness product.

2.Depress Toast lever(s).

3.When toasting cycle is completed, finished product will automatically be released. Remove immediately to prevent drying out.

CAUTION: Operation of this unit without product in the toasting slos will cause excess heat to be absorbed by the electrical components rather than the intended bread product. This will significantly reduce the operational life of these components.

CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS

CAUTION: UNPLUG TOATER AND ALLOW TO COOL BEFORE CLEANING

The POP-2/4 is designed for easy cleaning. The lustrious outer surfaces need nothing more than a daily wiping with a soft cloth. The crumb tray may be removed and wiped with a soft damp cloth to remove any crumb build-up.

DO NOT OPERATE THE UNIT WITHOUT A CRUMB TRAY

Do not use abrasive cleaners on any part of the toaster. This will cause damage to the finish of the unit.
