4.1 Basic Toasting

1. Insert bread slices into the toasting slots. For best results, always toast 2 slices of bread. The automatic bread centering feature will position the bread correctly.
2. Select your desired browning level using the 'SELECT 1-7' button. The LED display will show the selected level.
3. Press down the toasting lever until it locks into place. The toasting cycle will begin, and the LED display will show a countdown timer.
4. Once the cycle is complete, the toast will automatically pop up. The high lift feature allows for easy and safe removal of smaller items.

4.2 Personalized Memory Settings

The toaster features two dedicated memory settings (FAV. 1 and FAV. 2) to save your preferred toasting levels for different bread types or family members.

5. Maintenance

5.1 Cleaning the Crumb Tray

The toaster features an easily removable crumb tray for convenient cleaning.

1. Ensure the toaster is unplugged and completely cool before cleaning.
2. Locate the removable crumb tray at the back of the toaster.
3. Slide the tray out to remove accumulated crumbs.
4. Discard crumbs and wipe the tray clean with a damp cloth. Dry thoroughly before reinserting.
5. Push the crumb tray back into place until it clicks securely.

5.2 Exterior Cleaning

Wipe the exterior of the toaster with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as they may damage the stainless steel finish.

6. Troubleshooting

• Toaster not turning on: Ensure the toaster is properly plugged into a working electrical outlet. Check your circuit breaker.
• Bread not toasting evenly: Ensure bread slices are centered in the slots. Some bread types may toast differently; adjust browning level as needed.
• Bread stuck in toaster: Unplug the toaster immediately. Carefully remove the bread using non-metallic utensils. Do not use metal objects.
• Smoke coming from toaster: Unplug immediately. This may be due to crumbs in the tray or food lodged inside. Clean the crumb tray and check for any obstructions.
