Kompernass DOUBLE LONG SLOT KH 1550 - Manual (Page 5)

• Do not use an external timing switch or a separate
remote control system to operate the appliance.
• Unwind the power cable completely from the
cable winder before using the appliance.
Tips on usage
• Toast mixed-flour breads at higher browning
levels than white bread. Matured, dry bread
browns faster than fresh bread.
• Avoid using slices that are too big or too thick,
as these can easily become jammed in the
app-liance.
Attention:
In the event of a malfunction and when cleaning the
appliance, remove the power plug from the wall
socket. Risk of electrical shock!
• Loosen jammed slices of bread with a blunt wooden
object (e.g. a wooden spatula or spoon). Do NOT
touch the heater elements.
• Differences in bread sorts, moisture and the thick-
ness of individual slices influence the browning of
the toast. Bread for toasting should be kept in
sealed packaging until required.
Before taking into use
Heat the appliance up at least five times, at the maxi-
mum setting, without insertion of bread slices. For
details on cleaning the appliance read the section
»Cleaning and Care«.
Please take note:
The operator button
w only engages when the power
cable is connected to a power socket. With the first
usage a slight smell may occur (minimal smoke
development is also possible). This is normal and
dissipates after a short time. Please provide for
adequate ventilation.
Adjusting the level of browning
(Toasting time)
The desired level of browning, from "light" (1) to "dark"
(7), can be adjusted infinitely with the browning
regulator
y of the toasting time electronics.
Take note that, dependant on the loading of
the toaster, the browning level varies with an
unchanged setting of the browning regulator
y ! The fewer the number of slices inserted, the
higher their level of browning. Therefore, al-
ways turn the browning regulator
y down a
little when inserting fewer slices.
Toasting
Attention:
NEVER cover the toasting slots o when operating
the toaster! There is a risk of fire! The appliance
could become damaged!
• After setting the desired browning level, place
the bread into the toasting slots o .
• Press the operator button w downwards.
• The automatic bread centering device of the
KH 1550 centres the bread inserted into the
toasting slots
o .
• When the desired level of browning has been
reached the toaster switches itself off automatically
and the slices are ejected.
• The KH 1550 has a lifting function, which makes
it easier and safer for you to take the hot slices
of toast from the toasting slots
o . For this, slide
the operator button w upwards.
Interrupting the
toasting process
If you wish to interrupt the toasting procedure, press
the STOP button
e . The toaster switches itself off.
