For The First Time; Using Your Toaster - Oster TSSTJC5BBK Manuel D'instructions

preparInG To Use YoUr ToasTer
If you are using your toaster for the first time, please be sure to:
1. Remove any stickers from the surface of the toaster and wipe the outside of your
toaster with a damp cloth.
2. Insert the removable crumb tray into the crumb tray slot.
3. Make certain that the bread carriage lever is in the uppermost position before
plugging in the toaster's power cord.
4. Select a location for the toaster. The location should be:
• A flat, heat-resistant, non-flammable surface.
• At least 8 cm (3 in.) away from walls or the back of countertops.
• At least 30 cm (1 ft) away from any cabinet or shelving that may be above the
toaster.
• Away from flammable materials, such as curtains and wall fabric.
• Away from a gas stove flame or electric element.
5. Plug the power cord into the electrical outlet. Adjusting the power cord length. Your
toaster's cord storage area allows you to adjust the length of the power cord so that it
is the exact length you desire.
To adjust the length of the power cord:
Wrap the power cord around the cord storage posts on the base of the toaster until the
cord is the length you desire. Be certain to read the "Special Power Cord Instructions"
at the beginning of this manual for important safety information.
6. Without inserting any food into the bread slots, push the bread lever all the way down
until it locks. (The carriage will not lock if the toaster is not plugged into a power
source.) The first toasting process will preheat the new elements and burn off any dust
which may have accumulated during storage or manufacturing. It is normal for this burn
off to create an odor. Your OSTER® Toaster is now ready for use.
Inserting the food into the bread slots and toasting:
Now you are ready to insert your food into the bread slots. Keep the following tips in
mind when inserting your food:
• Most types of breads and pastries can be toasted, such as bagels, tea cakes, thickly
sliced breads, English muffins, etc. Slices should not, however, be so thick as to jam
the bread slots.
• When toasting two slices at a time, the slices should be of equal size and freshness to
ensure even toasting.
