anytime.

reheat function is in use, and bread will be automatically reheated.
Crumb tray
The crumb tray (10) should be emptied regularly as a build-up of crumbs could be a
potential fire hazard. After toasting, allow the toaster to cool down thoroughly, then
slide out the crumb tray (10) and empty.

The toasting slots (9) allow you to use a variety of different bread widths, as well as
muffins, tea cakes, crumpets and bagels. However, you should not force items into the
slots which are clearly too large. If an item does become jammed, switch toaster off and
unplug from outlet immediately. Once cooled, turn toaster upside down and gently

To achieve even browning, we suggest a minimum of 10 seconds between each
toasting to allow the control to automatically reset.
