Short Power Supply Cord Instructions
A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. An extension cord may be used if care is exercised in its use. If an extension cord is used, the electrical rating of the cord must be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance. The extension cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.
For Products Purchased in the United States and Canada Only
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug fits a polarized outlet only one way; if the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.

FAQ’s
What is the advantage of a long slot toaster?
Long slot toasters aren’t just fitter for big bread, they’re also better for bagels, frozen breakfast foods, pastries, pita bread, and a whole slew of non-baked goods. The slots are bigger, thicker, and much better suited for heating up rather than everything that isn’t regular old white bread.
How often should you change your toaster?
While toasters can range in price and features, most toasters have an average lifespan of six to eight years. You can extend the life of your appliance by cleaning it regularly to remove excess breadcrumbs and additional food particles.
How long does it take to toast bread in a toaster?
It takes at least 1-4 minutes to perfectly toast the bread. Do I need to purchase a toaster? How long do toasters last? Toasters can last more than 5 years if used carefully.
What cleaning solution for a toaster?
A damp sponge and a drop of dish soap can remove stubborn stains (don’t get any water inside the toaster slots, or near the lever, push buttons, or control panel). Wipe the toaster dry with a paper towel or clean dishcloth
Do toasters use a lot of electricity?
A toaster is found in most kitchens and is a popular home appliance for toasting bread or heating up certain pre-baked toaster pastries. The bread toaster uses from 800 to 1500 watts of energy when in use, an average toaster will use around 1200 watts
What temperature does bread start to toast?
To make toast in the oven, preheat your oven to 350 F. Layout however many slices of bread you need to toast in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake the slices for around 10 minutes flipping them and rotating the pans at the five-minute mark.
How do I know when my toast is done?
Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake the toast for 4-6 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and crispy. Timing will depend on your oven. Flip the slices over, then return to the oven for another 4-5 minutes until the top side has been browned and you have two browned sides on the toast.
What are the benefits of a toaster?
Toasters are a great way to prepare delicious toasted foods quickly. The coils, which are located close to the food being toasted, heat up fast and deliver bread (and more) toasted to your preference, in just minutes.
What is the ideal toaster temperature?
The perfect piece of toast starts with a pale, seeded, loaf that has been refrigerated at a temperature of 37.4 degrees Fahrenheit. Keep a ruler nearby because you’ll want to measure the thickness of the bread, which should be 14 millimeters or 0.551181 inches. Set the toaster to produce a temperature of 309 degrees.
What is the normal temperature of a toaster?
The temperature needed for the hot ambient air in a toaster, which makes the bread turn brown, is around 310°F (146°C). The heating element inside a toaster is a nickel-chromium alloy. The electrical current that runs through it heats it to make it red hot, with a temperature of 1,100°F to 1,200°F (519°C to 566°C).
What happens if you leave a toaster on for too long?
Food being left in the toaster oven for too long a period or at too high of a temperature can also lead to it catching fire. Due to their proximity to flammable materials, these pose an obvious threat to fire.
