Close supervision is necessary to prevent children from using the appliance as a toy.

☐ Check that your mains voltage corresponds to that stated on the appliance.
☐ Never leave the appliance unsupervised when in use.
☐ IMPORTANT: If the bread carriage handle gets blocked during use (e.g. because the bread slices are too thick) and the bread starts burning, unplug the appliance immediately and let it cool down before emptying and cleaning it. Should the problem persist, contact a competent qualified electrician (*).
☐ Check the cord for damages from time to time. Never use the appliance if the cord or appliance shows any signs of damage. Should the cord be damaged, it must be replaced by a competent qualified electrician (1). All repairs should be made by a competent qualified electrician (2).
☐ Use the appliance for domestic purposes only and in the way indicated in these instructions.
☐ Never immerse the appliance in water or any other liquid for any reason whatsoever. Never place it into the dishwasher.
□ Never use the appliance near hot surfaces.
Before cleaning, always unplug the appliance from the power supply.
□ Never use the appliance outside and always place it in a dry environment.

BEFORE USING THE TOASTER FOR THE FIRST TIME

In order to eliminate any manufacturing residues, operate the toaster a couple of times without bread with the browning control selector on a medium power level. Some smoke might escape.

OPERATION

• Before using your appliance for the first time, check if it is clean (see "Maintenance and cleaning") as it comes into direct contact with bread. Check if any object has fallen into the slots.
  • In the first time, connect the appliance only to a mains earthed wall socket.
• Place the bread slices in the slots (for French bread, cut a loaf shorter than the slots, then cut it in two lengthwise). Your appliance is provided to receive French bread, but also pieces of toast or other bread slices if their thickness and their length are shorter than the one of the slots. Make sure not to force when inserting the bread in order not to block it in the slots.
• Press down the bread carriage handle until it stops. Then release the pressure and the handle will stay in the lower position, which means that the heating process has begun. If the handle comes up immediately, check if the appliance is plugged in as the handle blocks only when the unit is plugged in.
• You can adjust the browning intensity to obtain a more or less toasted bread by positioning the browning control selector to one of the degrees marked from 1 to 6. Therefore you only have to turn clockwise to increase the intensity, and anticlockwise to decrease it. The higher the number is, the more toasted the bread will be.
• During the functioning, if you think that the bread is toasted enough or for another reason, you can break the heating process simply by pressing the cancel button.
  • Always unplug the appliance after use and let it cool down before handling or storing it.

RACK FOR BUN WARMING

Your appliance is provided with a bun warmer. To warm the buns just settle the support that is located on the top of the toaster.

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

• Before attempting any cleaning operation, make sure the toaster is unplugged from the supply socket and fully cooled down.
  • To remove bread crumbs, slide the crumb tray situated on the side of the appliance.
• Caution! It is very important to empty the crumb tray regularly. Crumbs that have accumulated in the toaster might burn and the appliance might catch fire.
  • To clean the exterior surfaces, simply wipe over with a soft damp cloth.
  • ON NO ACCOUNT MUST THE TOASTER BE IMMERSED IN WATER OR ANY OTHER LIQUID.
  • All other maintenance and repair should be performed by a qualified technician.
