Bedryfsinstruksies

Basiese Rooster

1. Load Bread: Place slices of bread into the toaster slots. For optimal results, use the left slot first if toasting only one slice.
2. Select Slots: Use the upper Selector Switch to choose the number of slots you wish to activate (e.g., 'I' for one slot, 'II' for two slots).
3. Set Browning: Turn the lower Mechanical Timer dial to your desired browning level. The dial typically ranges from lighter to darker settings.

Defrosting Frozen Items

To toast frozen bread or other frozen items, place them in the slots and set the Mechanical Timer dial to the defrost setting (often indicated by a snowflake symbol or a specific time setting for frozen items). This function adds extra time to the toasting cycle to account for the frozen state.

Using the Warming Rack (Accessory)

The Dualit Warming Rack (sold separately) can be placed on top of the toaster to warm items such as croissants, buns, or pastries without inserting them into the slots. Follow the instructions provided with the warming rack for proper use.

For toasting sandwiches or smaller items, the Dualit Sandwich Cage (sold separately) can be used. This accessory holds the food securely and includes a built-in drip tray.
