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.
Notes on Specialty Uses:
The following breads and pastries should be warmed using the
"Defrost" button:
Be sure that multiple slices do not overlap and that the carriage
is in the up position.
2. Set the Browning Control.
Frozen Waffles, Pancakes, French Toast and Frozen Bagels
Turn rotary dial to the desired position:

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.

Some notes on browning:
3. To Begin Toasting.
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.
Press the carriage lever until it locks into the down position.
4. To Stop Toasting.
When the toasting cycle is finished, the toast will be raised. If
you wish to stop the cycle before it is finished, simply press the
"Cancel" button.

•
•
•
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.
Tips:
•
•
•
•
Never force foods into the toasting slot. Foods should fit freely
between the guide wires.
Breads with very uneven surfaces (such as English muffins) will
require a higher toast setting.
Do not place buttered breads or pastries with fillings or frostings
in the toaster, as this could create a fire hazard.
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.
Uneven toasting is usually due to bread slices of uneven
thickness.
•
•
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.
After use, unplug your toaster from the electrical outlet.
Defrost Button
The "Defrost" button is designed to first defrost and then toast the
bread, which extends the toasting cycle slightly.
Before toasting bagels, slice each bagel into two equal halves.
