User manual CUISINART CMT-400P

[. . . ] Do not attempt to dislodge food when the toaster is plugged into electrical outlet. To avoid possibility of fire, do not leave toaster unattended during use. To disconnect, stop toast function, then remove plug from wall. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY SPECIAL CORD SET INSTRUCTIONS A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risks resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Longer extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use. [. . . ] · Breads with very uneven surfaces (such as English muffins) will require a higher toast setting. · Thickly cut pieces of bread (including bagels) will take longer to toast, sometimes significantly longer, since more moisture must be evaporated from the bread before toasting can occur. Very thick pieces may require two cycles. · When toasting raisin or other fruit breads, remove any loose raisins, etc. This will help prevent fruit pieces from falling into the toaster or sticking on the guide wires in the slot. · Before toasting bagels, slice each bagel into two equal halves. Single Slice Toasting: If you are toasting a single slice of bread, place the bread in the slot marked with icon (see diagram A. ) and set the heat selector to a lighter setting than you normally would. The toaster is designed to heat the whole toasting chamber for two slices. By lowering the heat for a single slice, you won't overtoast. Diagram A. Toaster pastries: Exercise caution with toaster pastries; the filling can become quite hot, long before the surface of the pastry becomes browned. To Begin Toasting: Press the carriage lever until it locks into the down position. To Stop Toasting: When the toasting cycle is finished, the toast will be raised. If you wish to stop the cycle before it is finished, simply lift carriage lever to interrupt. · Do not place buttered breads or pastries with fillings or frostings in the toaster, as this could create a fire hazard. · Uneven toasting is usually due to bread slices of uneven thickness. · After use, unplug your toaster from the electrical outlet. 4 Reheat Function The reheat feature allows you to reheat bread without browning or toasting. Be sure that multiple slices do not overlap and the carriage is in the up position. To stop cycle: When the reheat cycle is complete, the toaster will raise the bread. If you wish to stop the cycle before it is finished, simply lift carriage lever to interrupt. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE Always allow the toaster to cool completely before cleaning. Apply any cleansing agent to a cloth, not to the toaster, before cleaning. To remove any pieces of bread remaining in the toaster, turn the toaster upside down and gently shake. Never insert any hard or sharp instruments into the slot, as this could damage the toaster and cause a safety hazard. Use the cord storage cleats on the underside of the toaster. 3. 4. Bagel Function The bagel feature adds extra time to the toasting cycle to allow for thicker breads. Be sure that multiple slices do not overlap and the carriage is in the up position.
