6. Turn the Browning Control Knob to (1), the lightest setting.

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
This toaster is equipped with an automatic reset function. After each use, the
toaster resets to “Toaster” mode. The unit is in Toaster mode when none of the
function buttons have been selected.
TOASTING BREAD
NOTE: The Toast Lever will not lock into position unless the Toaster is plugged in!
NOTE: When toasting one slice, press down on the Toasting Lever and then press
the 1-slice button.
NOTE: DO NOT change the Browning Control selection during the Toast cycle. First
press the Cancel Button; then turn the Browning Control Knob to adjust the
browning level.
1. Be sure no bread or other objects are inside the Toasting Slot. Place Toaster on
a flat, level, heat-resistant surface and plug the power cord into a 120V AC
electrical outlet.
2. Turn the Browning Control Knob to desired setting: (1) is the lightest setting and
(7) is the darkest. You may want to experiment with the Browning Control Knob
to determine your preference. For the first use, set the Browning Control Knob to
medium (4).
3. Remove all protective wrappings from food before placing into the Toasting
Slots. Avoid toasting torn bread slices that may get lodged in Toasting Slot.
4. Insert the bread or toaster food into the Toasting Slots. Lower the Toast Lever
until it locks into place. The Centering Guides will automatically center the food
for even toasting. When the food is lowered into position, it will automatically
begin to toast.
