To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way. SHORT CORD a A short power-supply cord (or detachable power-supply cord) is provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. b Longer detachable power-supply cords or extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use. c If a long detachable power-supply cord or extension cord is used,

1) The marked electrical rating of the cord or extension cord should be at least

as great as the electrical rating of the appliance, and

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.

n Remove any stickers and wipe the body of the toaster with a damp cloth. n Before you use the appliance for the first time, we advise you to let the appliance complete a few toasting cycles without slices of bread on the highest browning setting in a properly ventilated room. n This burns off any dust that may have accumulated on the heating elements and prevents unpleasant smells when toasting bread.

n Put the appliance on a stable and flat surface, away from curtains and other combustible materials. Put the plug in the wall socket. n To adjust the length of the cord, wind part of it round the brackets in the base of the appliance (Fig. 1). Never let the toaster operate unattended. n Put one or two slices (2 slices model) or one to four slices (4 slices model) of bread in the toaster (Fig. 2 or Fig. 3.). n Select the desired browning setting (Fig. 4). - Select a low setting (1-2) for lightly toasted bread and a high setting (5-7) for darkly toasted bread. - 4 slices model: If you only toast one or two slices of bread, select the desired browning setting for the side where you put the bread. If you toast three or four slices of bread, select the desired browning settings for both sides of the appliance. n Push down the toasting lever to begin the toasting process (Fig. 5). - 4 slices model: If you only toast one or two slices of bread, push down the toasting lever on the side where you put the bread. If you toast three or four slices of bread, push down both toasting levers. - The toasting lever only stays down when the appliance plugged in and bread is being toasted. n The cancel button lights up (Fig. 6). Caution: The metal parts of the toaster become hot during toasting. Do not touch them. Note: You can stop the toasting process and pop up the bread at any time by pressing the cancel button on the toaster. n To adjust the browning setting during toasting, turn the browning control. n When the toast is ready, it pops up and the toaster switches off. n Remove the toasted bread. To remove smaller items, move the toasting lever upwards a little further. - If bread gets stuck inside the toaster, remove the plug from the wall socket, let the appliance cool down completely and carefully remove the bread from the toaster.

n Put one or two slices (2 slices model) or one to four slices (4 slices model) of frozen bread in the toaster. n Select the desired browning setting and push down the toasting lever (see section ‘Toasting bread’). n Press the defrost button (Fig. 7). n The defrost button lights up. Note: Toasting frozen bread takes longer than toasting defrosted bread.

The toaster has a preprogrammed reheat function that reheats your toast without making it browner. n Put the toasted bread back into the toaster. n Push down the toasting lever. n Press the reheat button (Fig. 8). n The reheat button lights up.

n Unplug the appliance and let it cool down (Fig. 9). n To remove crumbs from the appliance, softly press the crumbtray so it slides out of the appliance and empty it (Fig. 10 and 11).

English PROBLEM SOLUTION The toaster does not work. Make sure the plug is properly inserted into the wall socket. If the toaster still does not work, take it to a service center authorized by Krups for examination. Bread gets stuck in the appliance. Unplug the appliance and let it cool down. Carefully remove the bread from the toaster. Take care not to damage the heating elements when you remove the bread. Never use a metal object for this purpose. The toast is too dark/too light. Check the browning setting selected for toasting. Select a lower setting next time if your toast is too dark and a higher setting if your toast is too light. Check also that the Defrost button or Reheat button are selected.
