Breville recommends safety first

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS We at Breville are very safety conscious. We design and manufacture consumer products with the safety of you, our valued customer, foremost in mind.

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE AND SAVE THESE FOR FUTURE REFERENCE When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed including: • This appliance is for household use only. • Do not use this appliance for anything other than its intended use. Do not use in moving vehicles or boats. Do not use outdoors. • To protect against fire, electrical shock and injury to persons, do not immerse the appliance, cord or plug in water or any other liquid. • Do not leave the appliance unattended when in use. • Close supervision is necessary when the appliance is used by or near children. • Always use the appliance on a dry, level surface. • Do not place this appliance on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated oven.

• Metal utensils such as knifes should not be inserted in the toaster to remove jammed toast, bagels or any other items from the toaster. This can damage the elements as well as lead to electrocution. • Do not attempt to dislodge food when the toaster is plugged in. • Oversize foods, metal foil packages, or utensils must not be inserted into the toaster as they may cause a fire or risk of electric shock. • Never add any food substance to the bread, bagel or any other item prior to toasting (such as butter, jelly or marmalade). This may cause a fire as well as lead to electrocution.

• Do not use this appliance near or below combustible materials like curtains or place mats.

• Never operate the toaster on its side.

• A fire may occur if the toaster is covered or touching flammable material, including curtains, draperies, walls and the like, when in operation.

• Do not use the toaster without the slide out crumb tray in place. Do not allow crumbs to build up in the crumb tray. Failure to clean the crumb tray regularly may result in a fire hazard.

• Do not allow hot surfaces of the toaster to come in contact with countertops or tables. • Do not touch hot surfaces. Appliance surfaces are hot during and after use. To prevent burns or personal injury, always use protective hot pads or oven mitts, or use handles and knobs where available. • Do not let the cord hang over the edge of a table or counter, touch hot surfaces or become knotted. • The use of accessory attachments not recommended by Breville may cause a risk of injury to persons, fire or electric shock. 4

• To turn off the appliance, switch off at the wall outlet and remove the plug. • Unplug the unit from the wall outlet and allow to cool before attempting to dislodge food and before cleaning, covering or storing. • Strictly follow the Care and Cleaning instructions (page 12). • Do not clean with metal scouring pads. Pieces can break off the pad and touch electrical parts, creating a shock hazard.

• This appliance is equipped with a power cord having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The appliance must be grounded using a 3-hole properly grounded outlet. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electrical shock. • If the outlet is a standard 2-prong wall outlet, it is your personal responsibility and obligation to have it replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet. • Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord or use an adapter.

• Consult a qualified electrician if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if doubt exists as to whether the appliance is properly grounded. • Regularly inspect the supply cord, plug and actual appliance for any damage. Do not operate if damaged in anyway or after the appliance malfunctions. Immediately cease use of the appliance and call Breville Customer Service at 1866-BREVILLE for examination, repair or adjustment. • For any maintenance other than cleaning, call Breville Customer Service at 1-866-BREVILLE.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS. FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY. Your Breville appliance comes with the unique Assist™ Plug, conveniently designed with a finger hole in the power plug for easy and safe removal from the wall outlet. For safety reasons it is recommended you plug your Breville appliance directly into its own electrical outlet on a dedicated circuit separate from other appliances. If the electric circuit is overloaded with other appliances, your Brewer may not function properly. Use in conjunction with a power strip or extension cord is not recommended.

Note SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS Your Breville appliance is fitted with a short power supply cord as a safety precaution to prevent personal injury or property damage resulting from pulling, tripping or becoming entangled with a longer cord. Do not allow children to use or be near this appliance without close adult supervision. Longer detachable power-supply cords or extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use. If an extension cord is used, (1) the marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance, (2) the 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 unintentionally and (3) the extension cord must include a 3-prong grounding plug.

Before first use, remove any promotional stickers or packaging material attached to your toaster 1. Insert the power plug into a 120 volt power outlet then turn the power on. The ‘TOAST/CANCEL’ button will illuminate white for up to 30 seconds. The LED’s on the toasting progress indicator will illuminate one-by-one all the way to the right, then turn off one-by-one until the selected browning setting (indicated by the browning control slide) is reached. 2. Place 1 slice of bread, half a bagel or half an English muffin only, into each of the toasting slots. Ensure they are not too large or too thick to fit in the toasting slots. 3. Select the desired browning setting by adjusting the browning control slide on the front of the toaster. The browning settings range from ‘1’ (lightest) to ‘5’ (darkest). The LED’s on the toasting progress indicator will illuminate according to the selected setting. When using the toaster for the first time, we suggest toasting on the maximum setting without bread. The toaster may emit a thin smoke or distinct odor on initial use. This is normal and not detrimental to the performance of the toaster.

When using the toaster for the second time (this time with bread), we suggested you initially toast on setting ‘3’. For example, raisin toast and white light-textured breads may require a lighter setting, whilst heavier textured rye breads may require a darker settings.

Note 4. To start the toasting cycle, press the ‘TOAST/CANCEL’ button which will illuminate red. The bread will automatically lower into the toasting slots. As the toasting cycle begins, the toasting progress LED above the selected setting will flash and start to count down, indicating how long is left in the toasting cycle. The toaster will revert to stand-by mode after 30 seconds if none of the buttons are pressed or the browning control slide is not adjusted. The ‘TOAST/CANCEL’ button illumination and toasting progress LED's will go out. The toaster will re-activate, and the ‘TOAST/CANCEL’ button and LED’s will reilluminate when: a) any of the buttons are pressed. b) the browning control slide is moved. c) the power at the power outlet is turned off then on again.
