Frequently Asked Questions - TAM4201B BEKO

How to adjust the browning of the Beko TAM4201B toaster?

Turn the dial on the side of the appliance. The higher the number, the darker the toast. Start with a medium setting (3-4) and adjust according to your preference.

What to do if the toaster does not turn on?

Check that the cord is properly plugged in and the outlet works. Make sure the lowering lever is pressed down fully. If the problem persists, contact Beko customer service.

Bread gets stuck in the slot, how to remove it?

Unplug the appliance and let it cool. Gently turn the toaster upside down to remove the pieces. Never use metal utensils to avoid damaging the heating elements.

Can I toast irregularly shaped bread?

The defrost function allows toasting frozen bread without burning it. Lower the lever, then press the Defrost button. The toasting time is automatically extended.

	Pushing 1 from the browning control (3) will give the lightest degree of browning and pushing 7 the darkest.
	The browning degree can vary depending on the type of bread.
	When toasting several slices of bread consecutively, the toaster will become hotter and therefore the bread will gradually become darker. Therefore select an appropriate browning degree.
	The browning degree of one slice is darker than two slices, although the browning control (3)is set to the same level.
	If the power plug is not connected to the wall socket, the start lever (2) does not snap into place.
	The degree of browning can also be adjusted during the toasting process with the browning control (3).
