User manual PHILIPS HL5885

[. . . ] Do not insert foil-covered or oversized foods into the toaster. never let the appliance operate unattended. Avoid touching the slots of the toaster, as they become very hot. [. . . ] Let the toaster complete the first toasting cycle without slices of bread in it at the highest toasting setting to preheat the new elements and to burn away any dust that may have accumulated in the toaster during storage. Let the toasting cycle take place in a ventilated room to prevent any unpleasant smells produced by appliance from accumulating in the room. After having selected the desired browning setting, place the bread in the slots and press the toasting lever down until it locks. NB: the toasting lever will not lock in downward position when the Electronic Browning Control is in position 'O' (OFF). This will prevent the appliance from being accidentally switched on if children should pull at the lever. 3 When the bread has reached the selected browning degree, the slices will pop up automatically and are ready for removal If the slices are difficult to remove safely, you can lift the Safety-Lift toasting lever a little further. This will raise the bread carriage another 16 mm to allow you to safely remove small pieces of toast. 4 If the toast gets stuck in the slots, the automatic safety cut-out will switch the heating elements off after the bread has reached the desired browning degree. Unplug the appliance and wait until the toaster has cooled down before removing slices that have got stuck in the toaster. Insert the halved pieces into the toaster with the sides to be toasted facing the heater in the center. To toast only one side of frozen slices, move the lever downwards and press the "Bagel" and "Defrost"-button. When the toasting cycle has been completed, the bread carriage will be raised. If you wish to interrupt the toasting process, simply press the Cancel button. The Defrost function allows you to defrost and toast slices of bread in one go. This results in a slightly longer toasting cycle. 1 Insert one or more slices of bread into the toaster. Make sure that the slices do not overlap and that the bread carriage is in raised position. When the defrosting and toasting cycle has been completed, the toaster will raise the bread. [. . . ] dO NOT USE ABRASIVES TO CLEAN THE TOASTER. To avoid damage to the heating elements, do not use any pointed or sharp objects to clean the inside of the toaster. Crumbs will accumulate in the crumb tray and could catch fire if the crumb tray is not emptied periodically. [. . . ]
