POWER CORD
A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risks of becoming
entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Longer detachable power-supply
cords or extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in
their use. If a longer detachable power-supply cord or extension cord is used,
the marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension cord should be at
least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance, and the cord should be
arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can
be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.
BEFORE USE
Read these instructions before using your Classic Toaster and keep them
in a safe place for future reference. If you pass the toaster on to anyone else,
you should also pass on the instructions.
Remove all packaging before using the product, but keep the packaging until
you are satisfied that the product is operating correctly.
You may find a plastic label on the outside of the product, listing its features.
This must be peeled off before use.
Before making toast for the first time, operate the toaster without bread and
with the browning control set at the maximum setting. This will help to burn
off any dust etc. which may have accumulated on the elements. The new
elements may give off an unpleasant smell but this should not be a cause for
alarm. Ensure the room is well ventilated while doing this.
HOW TO USE YOUR CLASSIC SATIN TOASTER
1. Position the toaster on a firm, level, heat-resistant surface, clear of
curtains, draperies, and other combustible materials. Do not place the
toaster on or near items that may become damaged even by moderate
sources of heat, and keep it out of reach of children.
2. Shorten the power cord by wrapping excess cord round the clips underneath
the toaster.
3. Plug the power cord into the electrical outlet.

TOASTING BREAD
5

HINTS AND TIPS
1. When toasting more than one slice of bread, use slices of similar size,
thickness and freshness.
2. Old or thin bread will cook faster than fresh or thick bread, so use a lower
setting.
3. Do not use torn, curled up, or misshapen slices of bread as these may jam
the ejection mechanism and could catch fire.
4. Sweet bread products (tea cakes, fruit loaf, etc.) brown much more quickly
than ordinary bread, so should be toasted on the lighter settings.
5. Should the bread carriage handle become jammed during the toasting
cycle, do not attempt to release it. Unplug the toaster and allow it to cool
down before carefully removing the bread. Do not use a knife, fork or
similar sharp instrument, as these may cause damage to the elements.
CARE AND CLEANING
Unplug the toaster from the electrical outlet and let it cool down fully before
attempting any cleaning operation.
Wipe the outside surfaces with a soft damp cloth. If necessary, use a little mild
liquid soap.
Do not allow anything to enter the slots, as this might damage the elements.
Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaning agents or solvents.
Do not immerse the toaster in water or any other liquid.
Crumbs
Crumbs will collect in the base of the toaster. Letting them build up could
cause a fire hazard, so remove them frequently.
Unplug the toaster from the electrical outlet and pull out the crumb tray.
Empty the crumbs out of the crumb tray and wipe it with a clean damp cloth.
Dry it thoroughly before sliding it back into the base of the toaster.
