BEFORE FIRST USE Unwind the power cord. Check that the crumb tray(s) is/are in place and that there is nothing in the toaster slot. Plug power cord into the wall outlet. We recommend a "trial run" on the darkest setting to eliminate any protective substance or oil that may have been used for packing and shipping. A small amount of smoke and odor may be detected during this trial run. This is normal. Tips/NOTES ON BROWNING • Never force foods into the toasting slot. Foods should fit freely between the guide wires. • Do not place buttered breads or pastries with fillings or frostings in the toaster, as this could be a fire hazard. • Uneven toasting is usually due to bread slices of uneven thickness. • After use, unplug your toaster from the electrical outlet. • Toasting is a combination of cooking and drying the bread. Therefore, differences in moisture levels from one bread to another can result in varying toasting times. • For slightly dry bread, use a lower setting than you normally would. • For very fresh bread or whole wheat bread, use a higher setting than normal. • Breads with very uneven surfaces (such as English muffins) will require a higher toast setting. 5
