USE OF THE COMMANDS
• Make sure that the lever (A) is raised and the
dial (B) is set for a medium toasting level.
• Connect the appliance to the electrical outlet.
In order to eliminate the “new” smell at the
first use, operate the appliance without any
food inside for at least 5 minutes. Aerate
the room during this operation.
• Insert the slices of bread into the bread toa-
sting slots (G) and lower the lever (A) until it
is all the way down.
Note: If the appliance is not connected to the
electrical outlet, the lever will not go all the
way down.
•When the toasting is finished, the lever
returns to the up position, raising the toasted
bread slices at the same time.
• If the bread is not sufficiently toasted, select a
darker degree of toasting by turning the dial (B).
If it is too dark, select a lesser degree of toasting.
• The toasting can be interrupted at any time by
simply pressing the stop/clear button (E).
Defrost function
You may toast slices of frozen bread by pressing
the defrost button (C) immediately after having
lowered the lever (A); the cooking cycle will be
lengthened in order to achieve the desired toa-
sting level. The warning light will remain lighted
while the defrost function is in use.
Reheat function
Press down control lever (A) and press the reheat
button (D). The reheat light will remain on whilst
the reheat function is in use. Please note that this
is a fixed reheat time which cannot be adjusted
by the browning control.
"WARMING RACK" device (H)
Use this device to heat croissants.
• Fasten the grill to the appliance by first inser-
ting the hooks 1 and then clicking in the
hooks 2, as shown in the Figure on page 3.
• Rest the croissant on the grill.
•Turn the browning control dial (B) to the
desired position.
•Press down the control lever (A) until it clicks
into place.
• If the croissant is not warm enough, next time
select a darker level of toasting.
SUGGESTIONS
• Never use the appliance when it is empty
(when there is no bread inserted).
• Do not use very thin or broken slices of bread.
• Do not insert other foods that may drip
during the cooking process. In addition to
making the cleaning procedure more difficult,
these may cause fires. It is also very impor-
tant to clean the crumb collection tray of any
drippings before each use.
• Do not insert (by force) foods that are too big
for the slots.
• Do not insert forks or other utensils into the
toaster in order to remove bread, in so far
as it may damage the resistance coils of the
appliance. Remove the plug from the outlet
and turn the appliance over, gently shaking it
to remove the lodged item.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
• Any cleaning and/or maintenance operation
must be done after having removed the plug
from the electrical outlet.
• Let the appliance cool down before procee-
ding with its cleaning.
• The external part of the appliance must be
cleaned with soft cloth. Do not use abrasive
detergents which could ruin the surface.
• DO NOT IMMERSE IN WATER.
• After each use, remove the plug from the elec-
trical outlet and empty the crumb collection tray
which is situated under the appliance.
• If a toast slice should become lodged in the
toaster, unplug the appliance, turn it upside
down, and shake the toaster gently.
• NEVER TOUCH ANY PART OF THE TOASTER
WITH SHARP UTENSILS, ESPECIALLY INSIDE
THE BREAD TOASTING SLOTS.
