When using the appliance for the first time, smoke can develop due to production residues. However, this does not mean that the appliance is defective. The first time you switch it on use the appliance as you normally would but with- out bread. It is recommended to use the medium setting of the +/- digital heat control

to 1 will give the lightest degree of browning and slid- ing it to 7 the darkest.

The browning degree can vary depending on the type of bread.

When toasting several slices of bread consecu- tively, the toaster will become hotter and thus the bread will gradually become darker. Therefore select an appropriate browning degree. Let the toaster cool down after each toasting process for a minimum of 30 seconds.

The degree of browning for a single slice will be darker than for two slices, although the +/- digi- tal heat control

is set to the same level.

If the power plug is not connected into the wall socket, the start lever

does not snap into place.

The degree of browning can also be adjusted during the toasting process with +/- digital heat control
