Toaster USER MANUAL 2-Slice Model 3840 IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should be followed, including the following: READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY. Do not touch hot surfaces. Metal parts can become hot. Use handles or knobs. All chrome surfaces become extremely hot. To protect against electrical shock, do not immerse cord, plug or toaster in water or other liquids. This appliance should not be used by young children or incapacitated persons. Supervise older children closely. Do not attempt to dislodge food when toaster is plugged in. Do not insert fingers or metallic utensils into slots when toaster is plugged in. Do not operate toaster near flammable materials such as curtains, wall fabric, etc., to prevent fire. Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool before putting on or taking off parts. Do not insert utensils or foil-covered or oversized foods in toaster as they may involve a risk of fire or electric shock. Do not pull, twist or otherwise abuse cord. Clean out accumulated crumbs frequently to avoid risk of fire or toaster malfunction. Unplug when not in use and before cleaning. Special note: Do not use foods that will drip coatings or fillings when heated. Such accumulations inside the toaster create unsanitary conditions and the possibility of fire or toaster malfunction. Do not operate any electrical appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions or has been dropped or damaged in any manner. Return appliance to nearest Sunbeam Appliance Authorized Service Center for examination, repair or electrical or mechanical adjustment. Take care to never let a power cord hang over the edge of a table or countertop (Where it can be accidentally pulled) or touch any hot surface. Do not use outdoors or for commercial purposes. Never operate any appliance on top of a non-heatresistant or flammable surface. Never leave appliance unattended when in use. Do not place appliance on or near a hot gas stove flame or electrical element, in a heated oven or microwave oven. Use this appliance only for its intended use as described in this manual. Do not use attachments that are not recommended by manufacturer; they may cause injury. THIS UNIT IS FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY. A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risk of becoming entangled in or tripping over a long cord. Extensions cords may be used if care is exercised in their use. If an extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance. The 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. POLARIZED PLUG INFORMATION. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). As a safety feature, this plug will fit in 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 defeat this safety feature.

A. Wide slots allow toasting of homemade bread, bagels, English muffins and pastries. B. Self-adjusting bread guides automatically adjust to bread thickness. C. Bread carriage lever is pressed to begin toasting. D. Light/dark selector knob lets you select the toast darkness. E. Cool-Touch front and back panels. F. Hinged crumb tray. 3 USING YOUR TOASTER Before use remove any stickers and wipe the body of your toaster with a damp cloth. Ensure that before plugging the toaster into the outlet, the bread carriage lever is in the uppermost position. Plug the cord in 120/127 volt, 60 HZ AC outlet. Position toaster at least 3 inches away from wall or rear of counter. Let the first toasting process take place without inserting any bread to preheat the new elements and burn off any dust, which may have accumulated during storage. Select the desired level of darkness by turning the "1-5" light/dark knob on the front panel of the toaster to the right for darker toast and to the left for lighter toast. Your selection should vary based on the moisture content, thickness of bread, whether fresh or frozen and your darkness preference. Next, place bread in slot and depress bread carriage lever downwards until it locks. Carriage lever will not stay down if toaster is not plugged in. The self-adjusting bread guides will automatically center the bread for even browning. After the desired level of darkness has been reached, the bread will pop up automatically and is ready for removal from the slots. The bread carriage will return to its original position and disconnect the elements, ready for the next toasting. To remove jammed toast, unplug toaster and remove bread once toaster has cooled down. Never insert fingers or metallic utensils into slots. DO NOT WRAP THE CORD AROUND THE MAIN BODY OF APPLIANCE DURING OR AFTER USE. 4 USEFUL HINTS If you wish to cancel the toasting process, lift the bread carriage lever. Heating is stopped automatically and the toast will pop up. Most types of breads and pastries can be toasted; such as bagels, tea cakes, thick sliced breads, English muffins, waffles etc. Slices should not, however, be so thick as to cause burning or jamming in the bread slots. CARE AND CLEANING After use and before cleaning, unplug wall plug and wait for toaster to cool. Wipe the outside of toaster with a damp cloth and dry with another cloth or paper towel. Do not use abrasive cleaners. To avoid damage to toaster heating elements, do not use any pointed or sharp articles for cleaning the inside of the toaster. Attention: Empty the crumb tray frequently. Crumbs will accumulate in the crumb tray and could catch fire if not emptied periodically. When the toaster has cooled down completely, tap the sides of the toaster lightly to dislodge any crumbs caught in the toaster chamber and open the crumb tray over your sink (see page 3 for tray crumb location). Tap sides again to ensure proper disposal. Secure crumb tray in locked position. 5 1-YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY Sunbeam Products, Inc.

Para protegerse contra choques eléctricos, no sumerja el cable, el enchufe ni la tostadora en agua ni en ningún otro líquido. Este aparato no debe ser usado por niños pequeños o personas incapacitadas. Supervise a los niños mayores con mucho cuidado.
