Frequently Asked Questions - TR1200SB BLACK & DECKER

How do I adjust the browning level?

Turn the browning control dial to your desired setting (1=light, 7=dark). For first use, start with 3-4 and adjust as needed.

How do I clean my toaster?

Unplug and let cool. Remove the crumb tray from the bottom, empty and wipe it. Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth. Do not immerse in water.

What does the Bagel button do?

The Bagel setting toasts only the cut side of the bagel while warming the other side. It adjusts the heating elements accordingly.

How do I use the Defrost function?

Place frozen bread in the slots, press the Defrost button, then lower the lever. The toaster will automatically extend the toasting time.

Can I cancel toasting mid-cycle?

Yes, press the Cancel button to stop toasting immediately. The lever will pop up.

What should I do if toast gets stuck?

Unplug the toaster and let it cool. Use a wooden or plastic utensil to gently dislodge the toast. Never use metal utensils.

Is the toaster safe to touch during use?

The exterior is designed to remain cool to the touch, but the top and slots can get hot. Avoid touching those areas.

Why does my toaster pop up before toast is done?

Check the browning setting; if too low, increase it. Also ensure the lever is fully engaged. If still issues, the toaster may need cleaning.

How do I remove the crumb tray?

The crumb tray is located at the bottom of the toaster. Slide it out, empty crumbs, and replace. Clean it periodically to prevent smoke.

What is the electrical requirement?

The toaster requires a standard 120V AC outlet. Do not use with a voltage converter or extension cord unless rated for the power.

POLARIZED PLUG (120V Models Only)

This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.

TAMPER-RESISTANT SCREW

Warning: This appliance is equipped with a tamper-resistant screw to prevent removal of the outer cover. To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not attempt to remove the outer cover. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Repair should be done only by authorized service personnel.

ELECTRICAL CORD

a) A short power-supply cord (or detachable power-supply cord) is to be provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
b) Longer detachable power-supply cords or extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use.
c) If a long detachable power-supply cord or extension cord is used,

1) The marked electrical rating of the detachable power-supply cord or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance,
2) If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be a grounding-type 3-wire cord, and
3) The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over.

Note: If the power supply cord is damaged, it should be replaced by qualified personnel; in Latin America, by an authorized service center.
