Frequently Asked Questions - GB420B INVENTUM

How to use the defrost function?

Place two slices of bread in the toaster, lower the lever, then press the DEFROST button. The bread will be defrosted first and then toasted automatically.

Why is my bread too toasted or not enough?

The browning level depends on the temperature setting (1 to 7). If you only put one slice, it will cook faster. Adjust the control knob. The heat compensation adjusts the time if you toast several times in a row.

How to clean my toaster?

Unplug the appliance and let it cool down. Clean the exterior with a damp cloth. Never immerse the appliance in water. Regularly empty the crumb tray by removing it and cleaning it with a damp cloth.

What to do if bread gets stuck in the slots?

First unplug the appliance. Let it cool, then push the bread lift button upwards. Carefully remove the bread without touching the heating elements. Never use metal utensils.

Can I make toast with cheese or ham?

No, because fat or cheese could drip onto the heating elements and damage the appliance. Use the toaster only for dry bread.

What is the warranty on this toaster?

Inventum offers a 2-year full manufacturer's warranty from the date of purchase. For any claim, return to the store or contact consumer service via www.inventum.eu/service-aanvraag with a copy of the receipt.

Can I use the toaster unattended?

It is not recommended to leave the appliance unattended while it is operating. Although it shuts off automatically, always stay nearby for safety reasons.

What to do if the appliance does not turn on?

Check the wall outlet and the fuse/circuit breaker. If the cord or plug is damaged, contact technical service. Do not attempt to repair yourself.

How to use the reheat function?

Place two slices of bread (already toasted) in the toaster, lower the lever, then press the REHEAT button. The bread will be reheated without becoming too toasted.

Can I toast irregularly shaped bread?

Yes, but make sure the bread is not too large or wrapped in aluminum foil. For even toasting, use slices of similar size and thickness.

3 before the first use

Before you use the appliance for the first time, please do as follows: Unpack the appliance carefully and remove all the packaging material and any promotional stickers. Keep the material (plastic bags and cardboard) out of reach of children. Check the appliance after unpacking for any visible damage, that could be caused by transportation.

Before plugging into a socket, check that the voltage in your home corresponds with the voltage printed at the bottom of the appliance. Place the appliance on a stable and heat resistant surface.

Wipe the housing of the appliance only with a damp cloth. Note: the new appliance can give off a bit of smoke and the typically 'new' smell. It is therefore advisable to switch the appliance on several times at the highest setting without bread inside.

Use the toaster only for toasting bread. Do not prepare sandwiches in the toaster. If you do, cheese and fat can come onto the heating elements which can shorten the lifetime of the appliance.

4 toasting bread

The toaster is suited to toast two slices of bread at once. Put the plug into the socket.

• Adjust the browning control with the control knob
• Place one or two slices of bread into the toasting slot.
• Push the bread lift lever straight down to lower the slices. The indicator light in the CANCEL button lights up.
• Once the toasting cycle has finished, the appliance will automatically switch off and the lever will return to its original position, lifting the toasted slices.

The browning level is adjustable; position 1 is light and position 7 is dark.

The toaster can automatically compensate the heat. This means that when you directly toast another slice of bread, the toaster calculates the temperature of the device and adjusts the toasting time. This will ensure that your second slice of bread has the same browning as the first one.

With the DEFROST function you can defrost and toast bread at the same time.

• Adjust the browning control with the control knob
• Place the frozen bread in the toasting slot and push the lever down.
• Press the DEFROST button. The indicator lights in the buttons DEFROST and CANCEL will light up.
  • The bread will be defrosted and then toasted.

If you would like to reheat the bread, after it has been toasted, press the REHEAT button.

• Place the bread in the toasting slot and push the lever down.
• Press the REHEAT button. The indicator lights in the REHEAT and CANCEL button will light up.
• The bread will be reheated. It is not necessary to set the browning control.

You can stop any process, toasting, reheating and defrosting, by pressing the CANCEL button.

The appliance will automatically switch off and the lever will return to its original position, lifting the toasted slices.

The toasting time depends on the dampness of the bread and the thickness of the slice. If you only place one slice into the toaster, it is possible that with the same setting the slice will brown more. Select a lower setting of the browning level.

If for whatever reason, a piece of bread is caught into the toasting slots, do not try to remove it immediately. Use the hi-lift function to lift the piece of bread higher to remove it easier. If this does not work, unplug the toaster and leave it to cool down first. Than try to remove the piece carefully without touching the heatingelements.

Never place bread rolls directly on the toaster to prevent damage to the appliance.

5 cleaning & maintenance

Always unplug the appliance before cleaning. Wipe the outside of the housing with a damp cloth and dry.

Never use any abrasives! Never immerse the appliance into water or other liquids.

Remove the crumbtray at the bottom of the toaster for easy cleaning of the inside. Pull the crumbtray carefully at the handle from the side of the toaster. Remove the crumbs and clean the crumbtray with a damp cloth. Slide the crumbtray back into the toaster after cleaning. Check the correct placement of the crumbtray before re-use.
