For very fresh bread, thickly sliced bread or whole wheat bread, use a darker setting than normal. Dense, moist bread may also require a darker setting. Breads with very uneven surfaces (such as English muffins) will require a darker toast setting. Thickly cut pieces of bread will take longer, since more moisture must be evaporated from the bread before toasting occurs. Very thick pieces may require two cycles. When toasting raisin or other fruit breads and muffins, remove any loose fruit, etc. from the surface of the bread before placing into the oven. This will help prevent pieces from falling and baking onto the crumb tray. To prevent overtoasting of a single slice, set browning control to a lighter setting than you normally would. The Bagel feature adds the appropriate amount of extra time to the toasting cycle to toast your bagels at the color level selected with the touchpad shade control. The Bagel function is designed for the standard bagel size (3 ounces). For deli-size bagels (3-6 ounces) you may need to increase the darkness setting. The Bagel function can also be used to toast English muffins, thicksliced breads, and thick-sliced specialty Italian or Portuguese breads, which require longer toasting times than an average slice of white bread.
