Check if the product and the components are intact and if the appliance is working properly when using it for the first time.

5. Commissioning and use

Connect the power cable to a properly connected socket. First proceed as described in section "3 Initial commissioning".

Ensure that the mains plug is plugged in. Place up to two slices of toast in the toast rack. Press down the "slide switch" until it engages. Then press the toasting level button to set the desired toasting level. The heating elements heat up and the toasting process begins.

Note: The last toasting level set is saved in the appliance.

As soon as the process is finished, the "slide switch" automatically returns to its original position. Theasting process is then complete and the slices of bread can be carefully removed.

If the degree of browning of the toast is not satisfactory, adjust it using the toasting degree button and repeat the toasting process. In this case, make sure that the toast does not burn. If the desired degree of toasting has already been reached, you can end the process at any time by pressing the "CANCEL" button.

6. Bread roll attachment

Bread rolls, baguettes and loaves are too large to place in the toasting slot. Always use the integrated bread roll warming rack for this purpose. Use the lever for the bread roll warming rack to open it.

Note: Ensure that the crumb collector has been inserted correctly.

Before toasting on the bread roll attachment, ensure that the toaster has cooled down completely. Ensure that no toast has been inserted into the "toast slot" when using the bread roll warming rack, as otherwise this can result in fire.

If you do not wish to use the bread roll warming rack, remove it by folding it.

Generally, more time is required to achieve the desired degree of browning when using the bread roll warming rack. It is advisable to turn the items on the bread roll attachment.

7. Adjusting the Degree of toasting

You can use the "Degree of toasting" button to set the duration after which the toaster switches off automatically. The longer the appliance is switched on, the darker the bread will be at the end of the browning time.

Level Browning
1-2 low browning
3-4 medium browning
5-7 high browning

Note: To achieve optimum browning results, we recommend that you only use levels 1 to 4 for toast and sandwiches. The higher browning levels of 5-7 should only be used if you want to use the bread roll attachment for baguettes, bagels or bread rolls, for example, as otherwise toasted toast and sandwiches can quickly become burnt in the high levels.

8. Heating / Reheating

The toaster can be used to reheat the bread slices if they cool down too quickly. To do this, press down the "slide switch" until it clicks in place and press the "REHEAT" button. When bread which has already been toasted becomes too cool or has been forgotten about, the toaster can be used to reheat it without affecting the degree of browning too much.

9. Defrosting

Frozen toast bread can be defrosted directly in the toaster. To do this, insert the frozen toast into the "toast slot" and then press down the "slide switch" until it reaches the limit stop. Switch the appliance to the defrosting mode using the "DE-FROST" button. The duration of the defrosting process can be set using the "Degree of toasting" button.

10. Interrupting the toasting

If the bread starts to smoke or you want to stop the toasting process, you can press the "CANCEL" button. In this case, the toaster interrupts the toasting process immediately.

11. Cleaning and Care

Before cleaning the toaster, unplug it completely from the mains by removing the power plug. Wait until the appliance has cooled down completely. Clean only the surface with a slightly damp cloth. Never use a metal polish for this purpose! Please do not immerse the appliance in water under any circumstances!

Ensure that crumbs do not collect in the toaster. Bread crumbs can be removed by taking the crumb collector out of the toaster and cleaning it with a damp cloth. Ensure that you afterwards re-insert the crumb collector correctly.

Caution! Remember to empty the crumb collector on a regular basis. If a large amount of crumbs are allowed to build up, this may lead to a fire! It is also advisable to turn the toaster upside down and shake it, since crumbs may accumulate outside the crumb collector in case of frequent use. Occasionally shake the toaster upside down over a sink when it is disconnected to remove any bread crumbs.

The internal components of the toaster can be easily damaged. Do not touch the components with tools or other objects under any circumstances!
