3. Setup

1. Unpack: Carefully remove the toaster and all packaging materials.
2. Placement: Place the toaster on a stable, flat, heat-resistant surface, away from flammable materials like curtains or walls. Ensure adequate ventilation around the unit.
3. Power Connection: Unwind the power cord from the cord storage area underneath the toaster and plug it into a standard 120V AC electrical outlet.
4. First Use (Burn-off Cycle): Before toasting food for the first time, operate the toaster without bread for a few minutes on the highest browning setting (Level 6). This will burn off any manufacturing residues and eliminate odors. A slight odor or smoke is normal during this initial use.
