Be careful not to damage the internal
mechanism or heating elements when
removing the bread.
Toast any items only until they are gold-
en brown and not brown or too dark.
Remove any burnt edges. Do not over-toast
food containing starch - especially grain and
potato products - to reduce the production of
acryl amides.
If a slice gets stuck at the end of the toast-
ing process, pull the power plug and carefully
remove the bread after the toaster has cooled
down.
The use of browning levels from 4 to 6 is
recommended for the preparation of
sandwiches.
Depending on the quantity or quality of
stuffing, it can happen that the inside of
the sandwich is not warm enough or comple-
tely melt: in case, please leave the sandwich
into the slot for about one minute after ending
the toasting.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
1.
Disconnect from the AC outlet before clean-
ing.
2.
Wipe the outside with a soft dry cloth after
the toaster has cooled down. Never use
metal polish.
3.
Pull out the crumb tray from the bottom of
the toaster and empty it. If the toaster is
used frequently, accumulated bread crumbs
should be removed at least once a week.
Make sure the crumb tray is completely
closed before using the toaster again.
4.
When the toaster is not used or is stored, the
power cord may be wound under the bottom
of the toaster.
5.
Never use steam cleaners or pressure
cleaners on the appliance.
6.
If you use specific products for cleaning
steel, be careful with the chrome parts. They
could get stained.
DISPOSAL OF OLD
ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES
The European Directive 2002/96/EC on
Waste
Electrical
Equipment (WEEE), requires that old
household electrical appliances must
not be disposed of in the normal unsor-
ted municipal waste stream.
Old appliances must be collected se-
parately in order to optimise the recovery and
recycling of the materials they contain and reduce
the impact on human health and the environment.
The crossed out "wheeled bin" symbol on the
product reminds you of your obligation, that when
you dispose of the appliance it must be separately
collected. Consumers should contact their local
authority or retailer for information concerning the
correct disposal of their old appliance.
