Setup

1. Unpack: Carefully remove the toaster and all packaging materials. Ensure all components are present and undamaged.
2. Placement: Place the toaster on a stable, heat-resistant, and dry surface, away from flammable materials. Ensure adequate ventilation around the toaster.
3. Initial Cleaning: Wipe the exterior of the toaster with a damp cloth. Ensure the crumb trays are properly inserted.
4. First Use (Burn-off Cycle): Before toasting food, operate the toaster empty on the highest browning setting (level 6) for a few minutes. This will burn off any manufacturing residues and eliminate initial odors. It is normal for a slight odor or smoke to be present during this first use. Ensure the area is well-ventilated.
5. Plug In: Insert the power plug into a standard 120V AC electrical outlet.

• Bagel Mode: For bagels and similar items. Insert the bagel (cut side facing inwards), select 'Bagel' bread type, then tap the Bagel button. Adjust browning level and press the lever. This mode toasts the cut side while gently warming the outer side.
