USING YOUR TOASTER
Before using, wipe outside of toaster with a damp soapy cloth, and then dry
thoroughly. Operate the toaster the first time without any food in the toaster slots
and with the browning setting set to the darkest setting. This will eliminate any
residual manufacturing oils.
Basic
1. Place toaster on a dry, level, heat-resistant surface, away from any edge or
flammable materials.
2. Plug cord into 120 volt AC outlet only.
3. Place up to two slices of bread, bagels, English muffins, pastry slices (1 piece in
each slot), etc., into bread slots.
4. Select toast color setting from 1
st
LED light (light) to 6
th
LED light (dark). Note:
Toaster pastries, tarts and the like can ignite if over-heated. Toast at the
lowest/lightest setting with constant attention. Never toast any filled or frosted
pastries or the like more than once.
5. Press the toast lever down until it locks into place. Toasting cycle will
automatically begin. Please note: Toaster must be plugged in for toast lever to
lock in place. Toast will automatically pop up and toaster will turn off when the
selected color is reached. The toast cycle can be stopped any time by pressing
the cancel button. Note: Do not attempt to dislodge food when toaster is
plugged in.
6. Unplug the cord from wall outlet when not in use and allow to cool before cleaning.
Bagel Setting: The bagel setting automatically turns off the outside toasting

button. The bagel indicator light will illuminate when activated.

toasted in one step. To use, press toast lever down and press the defrost button.
The defrost indicator light will illuminate when activated.
Cancel Setting: The cancel setting will immediately terminate the toasting cycle;
the toast will pop up and the toaster will turn off.
Note: The above settings can only be activated after the toast lever is pushed down
and locked.
Some smoke and/or odor may occur upon first heating due to the release of
manufacturing oils – this is normal.

is normal.
