Advice on toasting
This Toaster will toast all kinds of sliced
bread normally sold in shops. The slice
must not be more than 3 cm thick.
If you want to toast two slices of bread
at the same time, use the same kind
of bread to obtain the same degree of
toasting. Remember that different kinds
of bread need different toasting times.
Very moist bread takes longer to toast
than dry bread. Of course, toasting
time is a matter of personal taste: if you
prefer lightly toasted bread, set a short
toasting time; for well-toasted bread, set
a longer time. The levels on the toasting
selector let you obtain the degree of
toasting you want.
B. Toasting frozen bread
1 Insert one or two slices of frozen
bread.
2 Set the selector for the desired
degree of toasting.
3 Lower the lift mechanism lever to
turn on the Toaster: the CANCEL
button will light up.
4 Push the DEFROST button
the light will turn on (fig. 8).

C. Heating bread
This function is very useful when you

• The metal wires of the bunwarmer
are very hot when heating has
finished: hold the bunwarmer only
by its plastic handles.
Be careful not to place it on a surface
that might become damaged.
• To clean the bunwarmer, wait
until it has cooled, then wash it
with hot water and dish soap. Dry
thoroughly. You can wash the
bunwarmer in the dishwasher; at
the end of the wash cycle, dry it
with a soft towel.
