How to center the bread slices?

The toaster is equipped with automatic slice centering. Whether the slices are large, small, thick, or thin, they are held in the center for even browning on both sides. No additional adjustment is needed.

Can I toast rolls with this toaster?

REQUIREMENTS ON THE INSTALLATION LOCATION

For safe and fault free operation of the unit, the following requirements of the installation location have to be met:

• The unit has to be placed on a solid, flat, horizontal, and non-slipping surface with a sufficient weight-carrying capacity.
  • Make sure that the unit cannot topple over.
• Choose the location in such a way that children cannot reach the supply line of the unit.
• Do not place the appliance on hot surfaces, such as hotplates, or near them.
• Never use the unit in the open, and store in a dry location.
• The unit is not designed for installation in a wall or a built-in cupboard.
• Do not set up the unit in a hot, wet or moist environment.
• The socket has to be easily accessible so that the power cable can be removed easily in case of emergency.
• The unit has a strong upward heat emission. Never put the unit under a cabinet, under curtains or next to inflammable materials.
• Never put the unit in the proximity of paper, fabric or similar materials. The bread can burn.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

For safe and fault-free operation of the unit, the following requirements have to be met during the electrical connection:

• Before connecting the unit, compare the connecting data (voltage and frequency) on the type plate with those of your energy network. These details must correspond so that no damage occurs to the unit. In case of uncertainty, contact a qualified electrician.

If in doubt, let the house installation check by a trained electrician. The manufacturer shall not assume responsibility for damage which has been caused by absent or interrupted protective conductor.

PRIOR TO FIRST USE

During initial operation, operate the unit once to twice without roasting product at the highest level, because slight odour development can occur due to potential residual dust on the heating elements.

The extra-lift unit makes it easier for you to remove the roasting product. Push the lift button upward and remove the roasting product.

BREAD SLICE CENTRATION

It does not matter whether you would like to toast small, thick or thin bread slices. The bread slice centration always brings your roasting product into the correct positon and ensures an equal browning result on both sides.
