User manual RUSSELL HOBBS BLACK 4 SLICE COMPACT TOASTER

[. . . ] 8 Don't let the toasting slots become covered during toasting. 9 If a bread carriage gets jammed during the toasting cycle don't try to release it. , Switch off the wall socket, if appropriate, and unplug the toaster. Leave it to cool before carefully removing the bread. [. . . ] Ensure the room is well ventilated. toasting bread 3 Sit the toaster upright, on a stable, level, heat resistant surface, clear of curtains and other combustible materials. Don't put it on or near anything that could be damaged even by moderate sources of heat. 5 Put bread into the toasting slots (maximum thickness 25mm ). 6 You can treat the left and right pairs of toasting slots as two independent 2-slice toasters. 7 Turn the browning control to the required setting (1 = light, 6 = dark). 8 Press the bread carriage handle down fully ­ it won't lock down unless the toaster is connected to the electricity supply. 9 When it's done, the toast will pop up, and the elements will turn off. , If you're using both pairs of slots, they'll probably pop up at different times. 10 To stop a pair of slots before the toasting cycle has finished, press the 5 button next to that pair of slots. The toast will pop up, and the elements will turn off. This will not affect the other pair of slots. 11 This feature takes the guesswork out of toasting frozen bread. 12 Leave the browning control at your favoured setting, insert the frozen bread, lower the bread carriage handle, then press the f button next to that pair of slots. 13 The light by the button will come on, and the toasting time will be altered automatically to give the same degree of browning you get with unfrozen bread. caution don't try to defrost bread ­ you'll probably wreck the toaster a) toasting frozen bread changes ice to steam, which escapes via the toasting slots b) defrosting bread on a low setting changes ice to water, which drips into the toaster, over the electronics and maybe the elements, causing mayhem 14 There's no need to adjust the browning control. Insert the toast, lower the bread carriage handle, then press the m button. The light by the button will come on, the toast will be given a short burst of heat, then pop up. 15 You must only reheat plain, "unbuttered" toast. eject 5 frozen bread f reheating toast m hints and tips 16 When toasting more than one slice of bread, use slices of similar size, thickness and freshness. 17 Old (yesterday's) bread contains less moisture, so makes crisper toast. 18 Old or thin bread cooks faster than fresh or thick bread ­ use a lighter setting. 19 Sweet bread products (tea cakes, fruit loaf, etc. ) brown much more quickly than ordinary bread, so should be toasted on a lighter setting. 4 crumbs 20 Clean the crumbs out of your toaster frequently, to avoid a build up of crumbs. [. . . ] It's on the rating plate (usually underneath the product). The product isn't user-serviceable. If it's not working, read the instructions, check the plug fuse and main fuse/circuit breaker. If it's still not working, consult your retailer. [. . . ]
