Button for Defrost
Button for Reheat
Putting into operation
 Remove all packaging material from the appliance and put it on a heat resistant, stable and flat surface,
away from combustible materials.
 You can store the connection cord not needed at the bottom of the appliance. Put the plug into a
suitable wall socket.
 Before first use 3 toasting cycles without slices of bread on the highest browning setting are
necessary to remove the surface protection of the heating elements. The smell which occurs is
harmless; nevertheless use the item in a properly ventilated room.
 Make sure that the appliance is never operated unattended.
 Adjust the browning setting on middle setting first. Place the slices of bread into the slots. The slices
should not be thicker than 15 mm that they will not get jammed. Push down the toasting lever to switch
on the appliance. The appliance heats and when the toast is ready, it pops up and the toaster switches
off automatically. During toasting the LED at the STOP-button lights up.
Attention: the appliance will become very hot at the metal-top between the slots. Danger of burning!
To remove smaller items of toasted bread use an oven cloth or a protective glove to avoid contact with
hot surface.
 Should the bread be too lightly browned, increase the setting and if it is too dark, lower the setting. The
numbers 1 to 7 only serve for your guidance. The higher the setting, the darker the colour of the
toast.The toasting result will be different at the same browning level for different kinds of bread, for
different thickness, humidity and size of bread. Due to this use a lower browning setting for less humid
bread, for smaller bread size or when only toasting one slice of bread. If only one slice of bread is
toasted the browning at the inside will be more intense.
 Caution: In case of too intensive browning a high quantity of acrylamide arises. Therefore intensive
browning should be avoided.
Stop-Button: Interruption of toasting
Should the bread get too dark, the toasting can be interrupted at any stage by pushing the Stop button.
Reheat-Button
If this button is pressed shortly after switching on the appliance, already cold bread will be reheated or
toasted again with a fixed browning time independent of the selected browning setting. The LED at the

Defrost-Button
If this button is pressed shortly after switching on the appliance, the selected browning setting will be
automatically extended for defrosting frozen bread. The LED at the Defrost-button lights up when function
is activated.
Bun Warming Rack
The toaster has a detachable bun warming rack which can be placed on top of the slots. The warming rack
is only meant for warming up rolls or croissants. Do not put any other ingredients on the warming rack, as
this may lead to a hazardous situation.
 Unfold the metal legs of the warming rack by twisting them downwards.
 Place the correct assembled warming rack stable on top of the slots (see picture above).
Not more than one bread roll / croissant can be crisped up from both sides at medium browning setting
(setting 3 or lower). Dry bread rolls should be slightly moistened to get a good result.
Attention:
 Do not place the bread rolls at the area of the handles. Only place them within the markings at the
warming rack. This can cause temperature accumulation and may damage the handles.
 After each toasting cycle let the appliance cool down for approx. 30 seconds.
 Never put the bread rolls directly on top of the toaster without using the bun warming rack to avoid
damaging the appliance and temperature accumulation. Make sure that the bread roll cannot fall through
the warming rack.
 Let the appliance cool down before taking of the bun warming rack.
Crumb Tray
During toasting the crumbs which fall down will be collected in the crumb tray. To empty the crumb tray it
can be pulled out of the appliance by its handle. Frequently empty the crumb tray to avoid the risk of
fire. Make sure the crumb tray is correctly placed and only operate appliance with correctly inserted crumb
tray.
Cleaning and maintenance
Before cleaning pull the plug and wait untill appliance is cooled down. Remove any crumbs stuck to the
browning slots and grids and on the heating elements with a brush. Do not tilt the appliance otherwise the
crumb tray will empty inside of the appliance. Afterwards slide out the crumb tray, clean it and put it in the
appliance again.
Never immerse the appliance into water. Clean the outside of the appliance and the bread roll attachment
with a damp cloth. Do not use caustic or scouring cleaning agents.
The appliance complies with the European directives 2006/95/EC and 2004/108/EC.
