First Use / Conditioning

Before first use, it is recommended to run the toaster through one or two full toasting cycles without any bread. This process helps to condition the new heating elements and burn off any manufacturing residues, which may produce a slight odor or smoke. Ensure the area is well-ventilated during this initial conditioning.

Función de desconxelación

To defrost frozen bread before toasting, place the frozen bread in the slots. Set the mechanical timer to the defrost setting (often marked with a snowflake or a specific short duration like 1 minute). After the defrost cycle, wait approximately 20 seconds, then proceed with normal toasting as described above.

Bagel and Bun Function

For bagels or buns, select the appropriate setting on the selector switch. In this mode, typically only the inner heating elements activate, toasting the cut side while gently warming the outer side. Place the cut side of the bagel or bun facing inwards towards the center elements.
