3. Setup

Before first use, follow these steps:

1. Unpack: Carefully remove all packaging materials and promotional labels from the toaster.
2. Placement: Place the toaster on a stable, flat, heat-resistant surface, away from flammable materials. Ensure adequate ventilation around the toaster.
3. First Use Cycle: Plug the toaster into a 120V AC electrical outlet. Run the toaster through one or two toasting cycles at the highest shade setting without bread. This will burn off any manufacturing residues and eliminate initial odors. A slight smoke or odor is normal during this process.
4. Clean Crumb Tray: After the first use cycle, allow the toaster to cool, then remove and clean the crumb tray.
