Frequently Asked Questions - Bistro 1070916 BODUM

How to adjust the browning level?

Turn the browning control (A) from 1 (very light) to 5 (very dark) according to your preference. For optimal results, select a lower level if the bread is dry or thin.

How to use the defrost function?

Insert frozen bread, lower the lever (D), then press the defrost button (B) within 2 seconds. The indicator light stays on and the toasting time is automatically extended.

How to stop toasting mid-cycle?

Press the cancel button (C) at any time to immediately interrupt the process.

How to warm rolls or croissants?

Slide the button (G) to deploy the warming rack (F). Place the items on the rack, lower the lever (D) and the toaster will warm them.

How to clean the toaster?

Unplug the appliance and let it cool down. Regularly empty the crumb tray (H) to prevent fire hazards. Clean the exterior with a damp cloth and dry it. Never immerse the appliance in water.

What to do if a slice of bread gets stuck?

Never use metal objects. Unplug the appliance and gently turn it upside down over the sink to shake out the bread. If necessary, use a wooden or plastic utensil.

Why is my bread burning?

The browning level is too high or the bread is very dry/thin. Reduce the level (A) and monitor the toasting next time. A 30-second interval between uses allows better regulation.

Can I toast foods wrapped in aluminum foil?

No, this may cause a short circuit or fire. Only insert foods without metallic packaging.

How to store the power cord?

Wind the excess cord into the cord storage under the base of the appliance to avoid tangling.

Where to find spare parts?

Contact your authorized Bodum dealer, a Bodum Shop, or visit www.bodum.com. The 2-year warranty covers manufacturing defects.

INSTALLATION

• Place the appliance on a stable flat surface which is neither hot nor near a heat source. The surface must be dry. Keep the appliance and its mains cable out of reach of children.

• Ensure that the voltage indicated on the rating plate of the appliance agrees with the mains voltage in your area. Connect the appliance only to a properly earthed power point with a minimum output of European 5A /US 8A. (Use a residual current device (RCD) or seeks the advice of an electrician.) While the appliance is in use, the mains plug must be accessible in case of an emergency. The manufacturer declines any liability for accidents caused by faulty or non existing earthing of the appliance.

• If the power point is unsuitable for accommodating the plug of your appliance, have the power point changed by a licensed electrician.

USING FOR THE FIRST TIME

• Carefully unpack the toaster and remove all of the packaging material.

• Before using for the first time, to eliminate the new smell, operate the toaster without bread inside for at least 5 minutes. Ensure there is plenty of ventilation in the room.

CAUTION:

This sign (hot surfaces) is placed on the top of the toaster!

Be cautious of hot surfaces!

Coming into contact with hot surfaces can cause burns.

USING THE TOASTER

• Ensure control lever (D) is raised.
• Plug (K) into a suitable mains supply socket.
• Insert up to two slices of bread into toasting slots (E).
• Turn the variable browning setting knob (A) dial to required setting. (1=lightest, 5=darkest)
• Press down control lever (D) until it locks.
• Once the chosen level of browning has been reached, the toast will automatically raise ready for removal from the slots.
• If the first slices are not browned sufficiently, select a higher setting (A) next time.
• If you want to interrupt the toasting process, press the stop button (C) at any time to stop the toasting process.

USING THE DEFROST BUTTON

• When using bread straight from the freezer set the browning control to the required position and press down the control lever (D) until it locks. Press within 2 sec. the defrost button (B). The defrost light will remain on while the defrost function is in use, and toasting time will be automatically extended. Always keep an eye on the bread for any signs of burning.

USING THE CANCEL BUTTON

• Press the stop button (C) at any time to stop the toasting process.

USING THE RACK

• Slide the lift button (G) to lift the integrated warming rack (F).
• Put the buns and croissants to warm on the rack (F).
• Press down control lever (D) until it locks.

USING THE CORD STORAGE

• You can store excess power cord (K) by winding around the cord storage (I) inside the base.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

• Always remove plug from the power outlet, before cleaning.
• To clean the inside, turn toaster upside down over the sink and gently shake.
• The crumb tray (H) should be emptied regularly as a build-up of crumbs could be a potential fire hazard.

After toasting, allow the toaster to cool down thoroughly, and then slide out the crumb tray (H) and empty.

• Use a soft dampened cloth to wipe the outside of the toaster and dry with a soft, dry cloth.
• Never use chemicals, steel wool or abrasive agents to clean the exterior of the toaster.
• Do not immerse your toaster in water.
• Do not use any sharp or pointed articles for cleaning the inside as this will damage the heating element.
• Never put metal objects or your fingers into the toasting slots.

HINTS AND TIPS FOR BETTER TOASTING

• For best results use bread slices of even thickness, size and freshness. Select a lower setting if:
  a) using stale bread (toasts more quickly than fresh bread) b) using thin bread (toasts more quickly than thick bread)
• To keep items such as muffins, crumpets bagels warm slide the button to lift the rack and put the items at the top.
• To achieve even browning, we suggest a minimum of 30 seconds between each toasting to allow the control to automatically reset.
• Never use the toaster without bread inserted.
• Do not use very thin or broken slices of bread.
• Do not insert other foods that may drip during the toasting process. As well as making the cleaning procedure more difficult it may be a potential fire hazard. It is also very important to clean the crumb tray before each use.
• Do not insert (by force) foods that are too big for the slots.
• Do not insert forks or other utensils into the toaster in order to remove bread, as it may damage the resistance coils of the appliance. Remove the plug from the socket and turn the appliance over, gently shaking it to remove the lodged items.
