If you encounter issues with your toaster, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

Problem	Possible Cause	Solution
Toaster does not turn on.	Not plugged in; power outlet not working; toasting lever not fully depressed.	Ensure the toaster is securely plugged into a working outlet. Press the toasting lever down until it locks.
Bread is not toasting evenly.	Uneven bread thickness; crumb buildup.	Ensure bread slices are of uniform thickness. Clean the crumb tray regularly.
Smoke coming from toaster.	Food lodged in slots; excessive crumbs; first use residue.	Unplug immediately. Allow to cool. Carefully remove any lodged food (do not use metal). Clean crumb tray. (First use smoke is normal, ensure ventilation).
Toast is too light/dark.	Browning control setting incorrect.	Adjust the browning control dial to a higher setting for darker toast or a lower setting for lighter toast.
