toasting bread
3 Sit the toaster upright on a stable, level, heat-resistant surface.
4 Don’t put it on or near anything that could be damaged even by moderate heat.
5 Route the cable so it doesn’t overhang, and can’t be tripped over or caught.
6 Bread may burn. Don’t use the toaster near or below curtains or other combustible
materials and watch it while it’s hot.
7 Put the plug into the power socket (switch the socket on, if it’s switchable).
8 Turn the browning control to the required setting (1 = light, 6 = dark).
9 Put bread into the toasting slots (maximum thickness 25mm).
10 Press the bread carriage handle down fully – it won’t lock down unless the toaster is
connected to the electricity supply.
11 The 5 light will come on, and the elements will heat up.
12 When it’s done, the toast will pop up, the 5 light will go out, and the elements will
turn off automatically.
eject 5
13 To stop the toaster before it’s finished, press the 5 button. The toast will pop up,
and the elements will turn off.
extra lift H
14 After toasting small items (bagels, crumpets, etc.) the bread carriage handle may be
raised further, to allow them to be removed more easily.
frozen bread f
15 This takes the guesswork out of toasting frozen bread.
16 There’s no need to adjust the browning control, leave it at your favoured setting.
17 Put the frozen bread into the slots.
18 Lower the bread carriage handle, then press the f button.
19 The f light 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
20 There’s no need to adjust the browning control.
21 Put the toast into the slots.
22 Lower the bread carriage handle, then press the m button.
23 The m light will come on, the toast will be given a short burst of heat, then it’ll pop
up, and the lights will go out.
24 You must only reheat plain, “unbuttered” toast.
hints and tips
25 When toasting more than one slice of bread, use slices of similar size, thickness and
freshness.
26 Old (yesterday’s) bread contains less moisture, so makes crisper toast.
27 Old or thin bread cooks faster than fresh or thick bread, so use a lower setting.
