User manual RUSSELL HOBBS HERITAGE STAINLESS STEEL 2 SLICE TOASTER 18198

[. . . ] 8 If you're only using one slot, don't let anything get into the empty slot, as both slots will be "live" when the lever is lowered. 9 Don't cover the toaster, or put anything on top of it ­ you'll cause a fire hazard. 10 If bread gets jammed, unplug the toaster, let it cool, then carefully remove the bread. Don't use anything sharp, you'll damage the elements. [. . . ] Don't use the toaster near or below curtains or other combustible materials, and watch it while it's hot. 5 Put the plug into the power socket (switch the socket on, if it's switchable). 6 Turn the browning control to the required setting (1 = light, 6 = dark). 7 Put bread into the toasting slots (maximum thickness 25mm (1in). 8 Press the lever down fully ­ it won't lock down unless the toaster is connected to the electricity supply. 9 The 5 light will glow, and the elements will heat up. 10 When it's done, the toast will pop up, the light and the elements will go off. 11 To stop the toaster before it's finished, press the 5 button. 12 The toast will pop up, the light and the elements will go off. 13 This takes the guesswork out of toasting frozen bread. 14 Leave the browning control at your favoured setting, insert the frozen bread, lower the lever, then press the f button. 15 The f light will glow, and the toasting time will be altered automatically to give the same degree of browning you get with unfrozen bread. 16 Leave the browning control at your favoured setting, insert the bread, lower the lever, then press the m button. 17 The m light will glow, the toast will be given a short burst of heat, then it'll pop up, and the light will go out. 18 You must only reheat plain, "unbuttered" toast. 1 2 3 4 eject 5 frozen bread f reheating toast m b bagel 19 Conventionally, only the brown crusty surfaces of bagels are toasted; the soft inner surfaces are just warmed, not browned. 20 Split your bagel, and put the two halves into the slots with the brown crusts facing the outside elements. 21 Leave the browning control at your favoured setting, press the lever fully down, then press the b button. 22 The b light will glow, the brown outsides of the bagel will be toasted, and the cut sides will be warmed. , If you're not conventional, and prefer your bagels toasted on the cut side, feel free to put them into the slots the other way round ­ we won't tell anyone! hints and tips 23 When toasting more than one slice, use slices of similar size, thickness and freshness. 24 Old (yesterday's) bread contains less moisture, so makes crisper toast. 25 Old or thin bread cooks faster than fresh or thick bread ­ use a lighter setting.
