[. . . ] 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. 2 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. [. . . ] Therefore, differences in moisture level from one bread to another can result in varying toasting times. · For slightly dry bread, use a lower setting than you normally would. · For very fresh bread or whole wheat bread, use a higher setting than normal. · 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. · 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, 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. Notes on Specialty Uses: The following breads and pastries should be warmed using the "Defrost" button: Frozen Waffles, Pancakes, French Toast and Frozen Bagels Toaster pastries: Exercise caution with toaster pastries; the filling can become quite hot, long before the surface of the pastry becomes browned. If you wish to stop the cycle before it is finished, simply press the "Cancel" button. · 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. Defrost Button The "Defrost" button is designed to first defrost and then toast the bread, which extends the toasting cycle slightly. 4 1. Be sure that multiple slices do not overlap and the carriage is in the up position. Setting 1-2: For refrigerated breads and thinner frozen items such as frozen pancakes. Setting 3-4: For toaster pastries, frozen waffles and (thin) French toast, and refrigerated bagels. Setting 5-6: For thicker frozen items such as bagels, hand-cut bread and thick French toast. To stop cycle: When the defrost cycle is complete, the toaster will raise the bread. If you wish to stop the cycle before it is finished, simply press the "Cancel" button to interrupt. Reheat Button 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.
