Some notes on browning:
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.

• 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.

• Breads with very uneven surfaces (such as English muffins) will require a

higher toast setting.

• 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.

• 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.

• Before toasting bagels, slice each bagel into two equal halves.

Single Slice Toasting:
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.

Notes on Specialty Uses:
The following breads and pastries should be warmed using the “Defrost”
button: Frozen Waffles, Pancakes, French Toast and Frozen Bagels
