2.  
 
CAUTION: This appliance is hot during operation and retains heat for  
some time after turning off. Always use oven mitts when handling hot  
materials and allow metal parts to cool before cleaning. Do not place

POLARIZED PLUG: This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is  
wider than the other). 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 in 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.

appliances, your appliance may not operate properly. It should be  
operated on a separate electrical circuit from other appliances.

Toasting Instructions  
1. Plug cord into any 120 V ~ 60 Hz outlet. The unit may emit an  
odor and/or smoke during first few uses from oils used in  
manufacturing. This is normal for a new appliance.  
2. Set Toast Color Control to the color of toast desired. For first use,  
set control mid-way between Light and Dark settings. Toast thin  
breads on the lighter toast color settings.  
3. Insert bread or toaster food into Bread Slots and push down Toast  
Lever. Note: Use any slot when toasting single slice or portion. Use bread  
slices that fit freely into the slots. The Self-Adjusting Bread Slots hold food  
upright for uniform side-to-side toasting.  
4. When toast is done, the Toast Lever with Auto Hi-Lift will pop up  
and the power will shut off automatically.  
5. To interrupt toasting, turn control dial to Cancel.  
Convenience Foods Toasting  
Today there are many varieties of packaged convenience food available,  
both frozen and non-frozen (shelf pastry), that can be toasted in your  
toaster.  
Since toaster foods and individual tastes vary, it is difficult to recommend  
exact Toast Color Control Setting, however, after a little experimentation  
you will discover the best setting for your needs. You may also wish to refer  
to the heating instructions on food packaging.  
Frozen Foods  
Move the Toast Color Control to a darker color setting. Due to  
variations in size and density, frozen items will require different  
settings. Moving the control clockwise will provide a longer toasting  
cycle. Thawing frozen foods before toasting will help ensure that the  
inside of the food is adequately cooked and will prevent the outside  
from burning. Again, experimentation is the best way to  
accommodate individual tastes and food choices.  
5.  
 
Removing Lodged Toast  
If a piece of toast becomes lodged in the Toaster, unplug the Toaster  
and allow to cool. Hold the Toasting Lever down. Turn the Toaster  
upside down and shake the toast loose.  
IMPORTANT: Never use a fork or sharp-edged utensil to remove  
toast, because that may damage the heating element or cause injury.  
Cleaning Instructions  
CAUTION: Do not immerse in water or other liquid.  
1. Unplug toaster and allow to cool.  
2. Wipe outside with soft, damp cloth. Polish with soft, dry cloth.  
3. Open Crumb Tray in bottom of toaster and brush out crumbs  
with pastry brush. Close Crumb Tray securely.  
User Maintenance Instructions  
This appliance requires little maintenance. It contains no user  
serviceable parts. Do not try to repair it yourself. Any servicing  
requiring disassembly other than the above cleaning must be  
performed by a qualified appliance repair technician.
