[. . . ] Do not use this toaster for other than intended use. Oversize foods, metal foil packages or utensils must not be inserted in the toaster, as they may involve a risk of fire or electric shock. A fire may occur if the toaster is covered or touching flammable materials, such as curtains, draperies or walls, when in operation. Do not attempt to dislodge food when the toaster is plugged into electrical outlet. [. . . ] · Before toasting bagels, slice each bagel into two equal halves. Single slice toasting If you are toasting a single slice of bread, set the heat selector to a lighter setting than you normally would. The toaster is designed to heat the whole toasting chamber for two slices. By lowering the heat for a single slice, you won't overtoast. Color light medium dark Frozen waffles, pancakes, french toast and frozen bagels These breads and pastries should be warmed using the Defrost button. Toaster pastries Exercise caution with toaster pastries; the filling can become quite hot, long before the surface of the pastry becomes browned. Never leave toaster pastries unattended while toasting or warming. To begin toasting Press the carriage lever until it locks into the down position. To stop toasting When the toasting cycle is finished, the toast will be raised. If you wish to stop the cycle before it is finished, simply press the Cancel button. Tips · Never force foods into the toasting slot. Foods should fit freely between the guide wires. · Do not place buttered breads or pastries with fillings or frostings in the toaster, as this could create a fire hazard. · Uneven toasting is usually due to bread slices of uneven thickness. · After use, unplug your toaster from the electrical outlet. Defrost button The Defrost button is designed to first defrost and then toast the bread, which extends the toasting cycle slightly.
