TOASTING TIPS
• Do not put buttered bread or pastries with frosting into the toaster,
as this can create a fire hazard.
• Never force food into the slots. Food should lower smoothly when
the lever is pressed down or it could get stuck.
• Do not overcrowd the toasting slots or overlap foods within the
slots. Each slot is designed to hold 2 pieces of standard bread or
2 toaster products side-by-side. Overcrowding or overlapping can
cause foods to burn or toast unevenly.
• Load bagels with cut sides facing out when using BAGEL mode.
This way, the cut sides get more heat, ensuring bagels are toasted
to crisp-chewy perfection.
• If toasting just one or two slices, choose one shade lighter than
desired. The toaster is designed to heat the entire toasting chamber
for four slices, so choosing a lighter shade will help prevent
overbrowning.
• If using fresh or very thick bread, try choosing a darker shade.
Moisture in bread slows down toasting, so a longer toast time is
required to achieve the same shade. For drier or thinner bread,
choose a lighter shade.
