CONSUMER SAFETY INFORMATION

This appliance is intended for household use only. NEVER LEAVE TOASTER UNATTENDED! This toaster is a metal body toaster and becomes hot during use. To avoid risk of burns, DO NOT TOUCH HOT SURFACES. Allow toaster to cool before touching, lifting, cleaning or storing. The length of the cord used on this appliance was selected to reduce the hazards of becoming tangled in, or tripping over, a longer cord. If a longer cord is necessary, an approved extension cord may be used. The electrical rating of the extension cord must be equal to or greater than the rating of the toaster. Care must be taken to arrange the extension cord so that it will not drape over the counter- top or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or accidentally tripped over. This appliance is equipped with a polarized plug. This type of plug has one blade wider than the other. The plug will fit into an electrical outlet only one way. This is a safety feature intended to help reduce the risk of electrical shock. If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact a qualified electrician to replace the obsolete outlet. Do not attempt to defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug by modifying the plug in any way. 840138100 ENv01.qxd 8/11/05 2:54 PM Page 25 How to Toast

• NOTE: Hamilton Beach/Proctor-Silex does not recommend heating toaster pastries in your toaster. Toaster pastries should be heated in a toaster oven broiler. However, if an alternative is not available, and you must use the toaster, be sure to set the toaster to the lowest possible setting, and never leave the toaster unattended during use. Toasting Guide

Regular bread 3 to 4 English muffins 6 Bagels 5 to 6 Frozen bread or buns 4 to 5 Frozen waffles 1 Toaster pastries (such as Pop Tarts

• Toasting is affected by the temperature of the bread. Room temperature bread may toast to a medium color on the medium setting. The same type of bread that has been refrigerated may require a darker setting to reach a medium color.

• The moisture content will also affect toasting. Fresh bagels, made locally, will have a higher moisture content than bagels purchased in the bread section of the supermarket. The bagel setting only energizes the outside wall heating ele- ments. A second, shorter toasting cycle may be needed to reach desired browness. Fresh bagels made locally may require two toasting cycles.

• Because of the irregular surface of English muffins, they may require more than one toasting cycle. After toasting for one cycle on the darkest setting, if a darker shade is desired, adjust shade selector to a lighter setting and toast for a second cycle. Watch closely to avoid overbrowning. English muffins cut with a knife toast more evenly than English muffins split with a fork.

• Many toasters have thermostats that must reset after toast- ing one cycle. The electronic controls of this toaster allow toasting batch after batch, with no waiting for the thermo- stat to reset.

• Thick foods may become wedged in the toaster slot. If food becomes jammed, the toaster will automatically shut off at the end of the toasting cycle. Unplug the toaster and let cool. Use a wooden utensil to remove food.

• When toasting only one slice, the bread may be placed in any slot of the toaster. When toasting a single slice, you may notice variations in bread color from side to side. Cleaning NOTE: If the toaster is used daily, the crumb tray should be cleaned weekly.

1. Unplug toaster and let cool.

2. Slide open crumb tray, discard crumbs

and wipe tray with clean cloth. Replace crumb tray.

3. Wipe outside of toaster with a

damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleansers that may scratch the surface of the toaster. 840138100 ENv01.qxd 8/11/05 2:54 PM Page 68 Customer Service If you have a question, call our customer service number.
