User manual PALSON MEMPHIS

[. . . ] - Do not leave the appliance on or near gas burners, hot surfaces, electrically heated surfaces or near a hot oven. - Do not try to move the appliance while it is hot. - When unplugging the appliance, turn all the controls to `Off' and then pull the plug out of the mains socket. - Only use the appliance for its specified purpose. [. . . ] If the wall sockets do not match the appliance's plug, they must be changed for sockets having the right format. Important: When dismantling the wall socket, be very careful with the stripped wire ends. Caution: This appliance must be plugged into a socket fitted with an earth connection. - When using your toaster for the first time, toast without bread. This will preheat the new heating elements and eliminate any dust that may have settled during storage. - Select the desired browning setting with the control knob (7), taking into account the bread's dampness and thickness. For best results, make sure that the bread is of uniform thickness, freshness and size. Remember that dry bread toasts quicker than damp bread and that thin bread toasts quicker than thick bread. - Place the bread in the slots and push the lever (8) down until it locks. The light beside the "Cancel" button turns on. Note: The lever will not stay down if the toaster is not plugged into the mains. - When the selected browning level has been reached, the lever will automatically spring up, lifting the bread out of the slots and turning off the heating elements. If the bread is stuck in the toaster, unplug from the mains and wait until it has cooled before unjamming the bread. When you are not using the toaster, turn it off by unplugging it from the mains socket. Do not coil the power cord around the toaster during or after use; use the cord storage provided in the appliance's base. CANCEL FUNCTION Press this button (6) if you wish to stop the toasting function. LIFT FUNCTION This function is very useful when toasting small slices. When the toaster has finished toasting and the lever is up, continue to pull the lever up so that it is easier to take out the bread. DEFROST FUNCTION To toast frozen bread, do not adjust the browning control (7). Simply place the bread in the slot as normal, slide the lever downwards and press the Defrost button (3). [. . . ] Bear this in mind when selecting the toasting time. Make sure that the slices are not excessively thick so that they do not burn or stick in the toaster slot. When toasting two slices, we recommend using slices having a similar freshness, size and thickness. Wait until the toaster has fully cooled before leaving it unattended. [. . . ]
