HELPFUL TIPS
Your ToastView Mototoast Toaster may be used for one or two slices of bread at a time. The wide slots on the toaster can accommodate wide slices of bread, bagels, buns, and any other food item you wish to toast. However, DO NOT FORCE items into the slot as this will cause the toaster to jam. If the bread does get stuck, first close the unit, unplug it, and allow it to cool off. Once cooled, chances are the rack will retract enough for you to remove the slices easily.
REMEMBER:
- Not all bread and bagels are the same – be ready to adjust the Min/Max Contol Dial setting accordingly.
- Frozen or refrigerated bread will require more toasting time than a regular room-temperature slice.
SMOKING OR BURNING
It is common that the first time you use the toaster some slight smoking and/or odor will be noticed. No need to worry, it is normal with most new appliances. Therefore, before actually using the toaster preheat it for about 2 minutes without any bread inside to allow any dust that may have accumulated to burn off. Smoking and burning can also occur later after much use as crumbs accumulate on the Crumb Tray. To avoid this, make sure to remove and empty the Crumb Tray periodically. If smoking occurs during use, press the STOP Button immediately.
- Never place the unit into a dishwasher.
- Never soak it in water.
- Use a soft damp cloth to clean the outer surface of the toaster.
- Never use abrasive cleaning products to clean the toaster.
- It is a good practice to remove and empty the Crumb Tray once a week. Here too, use a soft damp cloth to clean its surface.
- If bread gets jammed inside close the unit, unplug it, and allow it to cool off. Once cooled, it should be easier to remove the jammed bread as the cooled rack tends to retract a bit.
- Do not try to remove the jammed slices by inserting sharp or pointed metal objects into the toaster as this could damage the heat-ing elements.
- Wipe the body with a wet cloth and then dry it completely.
- When not in use, store appliances in a secure, dry, and cool place.
