Using the Appliance

This toaster is suitable for slices of bread (up to 13x13 cm), braided rolls, and similar baked goods with a maximum thickness of 2.6 cm. Do not use it for baked goods with fillings or spreads, e.g., butter or jam.

Using the appliance for the first time:

• Any unnecessary length of the power cable can be wound in at the base of the device. Plug in the power cable and press the On/Off button to switch on the device.
• Prior to the first use, run the toaster through at least one toasting cycle without bread at the maximum browning setting to remove the surface protection from the heating elements. The resulting odour is harmless, but this should nevertheless be performed in a well-ventilated area. Allow the device to cool off somewhat before each toasting process.
• Insert the bread slices into the bread slot. To make sure that they do not jam, they should be no thicker than 2.6 cm. Place small slices next to one another in an upright position in the bread slot so that it is easier to take them out after toasting.
• Use the "+"/"-" buttons initially to set the medium browning level and then press the Start/Stop button. The motor switches on and moves the toast downwards until the toasting time expires. The device then switches off automatically and the finished toast is raised from the bread slot for removal.
• Caution: The device is still ready to use (LED display illuminated) until the On/Off button is pressed to switch off the toaster (LED display disappears).

Information about the degree of browning:

• If the toast is too light, select a higher browning level. If the toast is too dark, move the browning level to a lower setting. The LED display is only useful as a guide. The greater the number of illuminated LEDs, the darker the browning.
• The toasting result can vary for the same setting depending on the bread type, size, moisture content, and thickness of the slices. Therefore, choose a lower setting for less moist bread, smaller slices, and also when toasting just one slice of bread.
• When toasted too darkly, concentrated acrylamide forms. You should therefore avoid toasting too darkly.

Functions:

• Single-sided toasting: Ideal for baguettes, rolls, and bagels. Cut the baguette lengthwise. Place it in the bread slot so that the cut side is facing the front. If the Bagel button is pressed immediately after starting, the slice of bread will only be toasted on its front side.
• Warming up / secondary toasting: If the warm-up button is pressed immediately after starting the device, already cooled-off toast is warmed up again to become crispy (regardless of the set degree of browning), and light bread is somewhat toasted.
• Thawing: If the button is pressed immediately after starting, the toasting cycle is automatically extended to toast frozen bread.
• Stopping the toasting cycle: To stop the cycle early, press the illuminated Start/Stop button.

Roll attachment:

• The toaster has a roll attachment that can be fitted if needed. Two rolls can be baked from both sides, each with the lowest setting. Slightly wet bread that is too dry beforehand so that it toasts better.
• Note: Only use the roll attachment on the lowest setting, otherwise there is a risk of the device overheating.

Crumb tray:

• Collects crumbs. Empty by briefly pressing against the crumb tray. You will then be able to pull it out of the device.

Cleaning and Care

• Before cleaning, switch off the toaster, remove the plug from the socket, and let the device cool down completely. Especially the glass plates must be cooled down completely.
• The inner glass plates can be removed for intensive cleaning. They can be removed vertically downwards after unlocking the base.
• Clean the glass plates only with a damp cloth and some glass cleaner. Do not use any sharp or abrasive cleaning agents. Do not clean with oven/grill spray. Do not use a steam cleaner.
• After cleaning, the internal glass plates must be completely dried before they can be reinserted in the toaster.
• Note: An audible sound is emitted at the start of the next toasting cycle if the internal glass plates have not been reinserted correctly. For safety reasons, it is not possible to continue toasting until this error has been rectified.
• Using a stiff brush, remove the crumbs baked onto the grilles and heating elements in the bread slot. Do not tip the device when doing so, otherwise the crumb tray will empty into the inside of the device. Afterwards, pull out the tray, clean, and insert it back into the device.
• Never immerse the toaster in water.
• Clean the roll attachment with a damp cloth. It is not dishwasher safe.
