Questions on Using the Horizontal Toaster
1. Can I toast thick slices of homemade breads?
Yes, as long as the slices don’t go over the
MAX FILL LINE. You can see the words
MAX FILL LINE and the line when you pull
open the door. It is not recommended to
put foods in the toaster that exceed the
MAX line.
2. I noticed some moisture on the glass
door—is that normal?
Yes. Some condensation may form on the door during the toasting
cycle because the door traps the heat and moisture. This is normal.
3. Can I interrupt a toasting cycle once it’
s started?
Yes. Push the “Stop” button and the cycle will stop. If you use a
second toasting cycle, watch for doneness and use “Stop” to stop the
cycle and avoid burning. You should use a lower setting for a second
toast cycle.
4. What do I do if my toast burns and starts flaming
?
The door of this toaster has an added benefit should flaming occur.
Since it traps the flames, the door helps extinguish any fire within a
short time. DO NOT open the door until the flames go out. Allow the
toaster to cool before removing burnt food.
5. Can I put butter or margarine on my food before toasting?
Yes. You can use a very thin layer of butter or margarine before
toasting. Be sure to use a setting of Medium or Light. Some dripping
may occur. Avoid using sugary toppings such as jellies, preserves, or
syrups in the toaster since they get very hot and may burn.
6. Pop-up toasters usually indicate one slot or the other for toasting
one slice. What is the best position for toasting one slice in this
toaster? For the most even heating and toasting, place the food in the
center of the toasting rack. Use lower settings for a single slice of toast.
(See the “Toasting Guide” on page 14.)
7. Can I reheat foods (i.e. Danish, a slice of pizza) on aluminum foil
in the toaster? No. This toaster should only be used with traditional
toaster-style foods. No foods should be heated in foil or on trays.
8. What is the best way to clean crumbs out of the door area
?
Remove the rack and sweep crumbs out with a pastry brush. If you
don’t have a pastry brush, use a dry paper towel and wipe clean.
