Never leave the toaster unsupervised while it is in use, as there is always the risk of the bread getting stuck in it and starting to burn. In the unlikely event of a toast, bread or bagel being stuck in the slot, switch the appliance off with the CANCEL button. In this case, pull the power plug from the power socket and let the appliance cool down completely before removing the bread from the slot with a wooden tool (e.g. a cooking spoon). Be especially careful not to damage the heating elements when doing that.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

1. Pull the power plug and let the toaster cool down completely.

2. To remove the bread crumbs, you have to pull the bread crumb tray (G) out of

the appliance. To do that, briefly push against the narrow end of the bread crumb tray (G), underneath the inscription PUSH. A small portion of the tray springs out, the tray can now be pulled out. Empty the bread crumb tray and, if neces- sary, clean it with a soft, dry towel. Then, push the bread crumb tray all the way back into the appliance. Do not place the bread crumb tray in the dish washer.

1. Plug the power plug into a suitable power outlet.

2. Place the bread, the slice of toast or the crumpet resp. bagel you wish to toast in

the slot. Make sure that the slices are not too thick, long or wide and precisely fit into the slots. The slices should not exceed 12 x 12 cm.

3. Select the desired degree of roasting with the roasting degree control (B). In po-

sition 1, the roasting is lightest, in position 6, it is darkest. Note: When using the toaster for the first time, you should start with roasting degree 3. Different kinds of bread and personal preference might require different roasting de- gree settings. For instance, the setting should be lower for light, fluffy bread than for bread with a firm texture. Likewise, older bread requires a lower degree of roasting, as the bread is drier than fresh bread.

4. To start the toasting process, push the operating lever (E) down, the bread / pastry

is moved down and simultaneously centered. The CANCEL button surround lights up blue and the bread / pastry is toasted. GB GB5958
