SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION: A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risk of
personal injury resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a
longer cord. Extension cords are available from local hardware stores
and may be used if care is exercised in their use. If an extension cord is
required, special care and caution is necessary. Also the cord must be:
(1) marked with an electrical rating of 125 V and at least 15 A and (2)
the cord must be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop
or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over
accidentally.
POLARIZED PLUG: This appliance has a polarized plug, (one blade is
wider than the other). As a safety feature to reduce the risk of electrical
shock, this plug is intended to fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the
plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit,
contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.
ELECTRIC POWER: If the electric circuit is overloaded with other
appliances, your toaster may not operate properly. It should be
operated on a separate electrical circuit from other appliances.
This product is for household use only.

Toasting Instructions
1. Plug cord into any 120 V ~ 60 Hz outlet. The unit may emit an odor
and/or smoke during first few uses from oils used in manufacturing.
This is normal for a new appliance.
2. Set Toast Color Control to the color of toast desired. For first use, set
control mid-way between Light and Dark settings. Toast thin breads
on the lighter toast color settings.
3.
3. Insert bread or toaster food into Bread Slots and push down Toast
Lever. Note: Use any Bread Slot when toasting single slice or portion. Use
bread slices that fit freely into slots. The Self-Adjusting Bread Slots hold
food upright for uniform side to side toasting.
4. When toast is done, the Toast Lever with Auto Hi-Lift will pop up
and the power will shut off automatically.
5. To interrupt toasting, turn Toast Color Control counter clockwise
to the Cancel Toasting Position.
Convenience Foods Toasting
Today there are many varieties of packaged convenience food
available, both frozen and non-frozen (shelf pastry), that can be
toasted in your toaster.
Since toaster foods and individual tastes vary, it is difficult to
recommend exact Toast Color Control settings, however, after a little
experimentation you will discover the best setting for your needs. You
may also wish to refer to the heating instructions on food packaging.
Non-frozen Shelf Pastry
®
Move Toast Color Control to the Pop Tart Toaster Pastry setting. For
thicker convenience foods, it may be necessary to adjust control
clockwise for longer toasting cycle.
Frozen Foods
Move the Toast Color Control to a darker color setting. Due to
variations in size and density, frozen items will require different
settings. Moving the control clockwise will provide a longer toasting
cycle. Thawing frozen foods before toasting will help ensure that the
inside of the food is heated and will prevent the outside from
burning. Again, experimentation is the best way to accommodate
individual tastes.
