BEFORE FIRST USE

To toast frozen bread, do not adjust the browning control from your normal setting. Place the bread in the bread slots as normal, and press the frozen button ‹.
Using the pause and check / cancel button
If you wish to check the process of the toasting cycle, press the Pause and check / cancel button fi. On pressing the button, the bread carriage will pop up automatically for you to check. This action will pause the heating elements, during this period, the function button lights will flash. If you have achieved the desired level of browning, remove the toast from the toaster. If longer toasting is required, depress the bread carriage lever within 5 seconds to resume the toasting cycle at the same stage it was at when it was paused.
Hints and tips
In order to achieve uniform browning, we recommend you wait a minimum of 30 seconds between each toasting, so that the control can be automatically reset.
If toasting one slice only, you may need to adjust the browning control to a slightly lower setting.
Please note: you will also notice a slight variation in toast colour on one side of a single slice.
Stale bread toasts more rapidly than fresh bread. Therefore, the browning control should be set at a lower setting than usual.
All sorts of bread can be used, as well as teacakes, small rolls etc. However, slices should not be so thick as to cause burning or jamming within the bread slots.
