toasting bread
3 Sit the toaster upright, on a stable, level, heat resistant surface, clear of curtains and
other combustible materials. Don’t put it on or near anything that could be
damaged even by moderate sources of heat.
4 Put the plug into the wall socket. If necessary, switch the socket on.
5 Put bread into the toasting slots (maximum thickness 38mm ).
6 You can treat the left and right pairs of toasting slots as two independent 2-slice
toasters.
7 Move the browning control to the required setting (1 = light, 6 = dark).
8 Press the bread carriage handle down fully – it won’t lock down unless the toaster is
connected to the electricity supply.
9 The light in the 5 button will come on, to show that the elements are heating.
10 When it’s done, the toast will pop up, the light in the 5 button will go out, and the
elements will turn off.
, Take care – if you’re using both pairs of slots, they’ll probably pop up at different
times.
eject 5
11 To stop a pair of slots before the toasting cycle has finished, press the 5 button
below that pair of slots. The 5 light will go out, the toast will pop up, and the
elements will turn off. This will not affect the other pair of slots.
frozen bread f
12 This feature takes the guesswork out of toasting frozen bread.
13 Leave the browning control at your favoured setting, insert the frozen bread, lower
the bread carriage handle, then press the f button next to that pair of slots.
14 The light in the f button will come on, and the toasting time will be altered
automatically to give the same degree of browning you get with unfrozen bread.
caution don’t try to defrost bread – you’ll probably wreck the toaster
a) toasting frozen bread changes ice to steam, which escapes via the toasting slots
b) defrosting bread on a low setting changes ice to water, which drips into the
toaster, over the electronics and maybe the elements, causing mayhem
reheating toast m
15 There’s no need to adjust the browning control. Insert the toast, lower the bread
carriage handle, then press the m button.
16 The light in the m button will come on, the toast will be given a short burst of heat,
then pop up, and the m light will go out.
17 You must only reheat plain, “unbuttered” toast.
extra lift H
18 After toasting small items (bagels, crumpets, etc.) the bread carriage handle may be
raised further, to allow them to be removed more easily.
hints and tips
19 When toasting more than one slice of bread, use slices of similar size, thickness and
freshness.
20 Old (yesterday’s) bread contains less moisture, so makes crisper toast.
