Single Slice Toasting:
USE AND CARE
If you are toasting a single slice of bread, set the heat selector to a
lighter setting than you normally would. The toaster is designed to
heat the whole toasting chamber for two slices. By lowering the
heat for a single slice, you won't overtoast.
Unwind the power cord. Check that the crumb tray is in place and
that there is nothing in the toaster slot. Plug power cord into the
wall outlet.
1. Insert Slice(s) of Bread.
Toaster pastries: Exercise caution with toaster pastries; the filling
can become quite hot, long before the surface of the pastry
becomes browned. Never leave toaster pastries unattended while
toasting or warming.
Be sure that multiple slices do not overlap and that the carriage
is in the up position.
2. Set the Browning Control.
Turn rotary dial to the desired position:

Some notes on browning:
Tips:
Toasting is a combination of cooking and drying of the bread.
Therefore, differences in moisture level from one bread to another
can result in varying toasting times.
•
•
•
•
Never force foods into the toasting slot. Foods should fit freely
between the guide wires.
•
•
•
•
For slightly dry bread, use a lower setting than you normally
would.
Do not place buttered breads or pastries with fillings or frostings
in the toaster, as this could create a fire hazard.
For very fresh bread or whole wheat bread, use a higher setting
than normal.
Uneven toasting is usually due to bread slices of uneven
thickness.
Breads with very uneven surfaces (such as English muffins) will
require a higher toast setting.
After use, unplug your toaster from the electrical outlet.
Reheat Function
Thickly cut pieces of bread (including bagels) will take longer
to toast, sometimes significantly longer, since more moisture
must be evaporated from the bread before toasting can occur.
Very thick pieces may require two cycles.
The reheat feature allows you to reheat bread without browning
or toasting.
1. Insert slice(s) of bread.
Be sure that multiple slices do not overlap and the carriage is in
the up position.
•
When toasting raisin or other fruit breads, remove any loose
raisins, etc. from the surface of the bread before placing into
the toaster. This will help prevent fruit pieces from falling into
the toaster or sticking on the guide wires in the slot.
2. Press the carriage control lever until it locks into position.
3. Turn shade dial to reheat setting.
•
Before toasting bagels, slice each bagel into two equal halves.
