Product Information
Full details
The Salter Retro 4-Slice Toaster in Green is designed for households that enjoy a variety of breakfast items and need to toast multiple slices simultaneously. Its key benefit is the versatility offered by wide slots and adjustable browning settings, allowing everyone to customize their toast. A potential consideration is that its retro aesthetic, while charming, may take up more counter space than a more compact model.

FAQs
Can I toast different types of bread at the same time?
Yes, you can toast different types of bread simultaneously. You can also use the independent controls to achieve different browning levels for each pair of slots.
How do I clean the crumb tray?
Unplug the toaster and let it cool. Slide out the crumb tray from the bottom, empty the crumbs, wipe it clean with a damp cloth, dry it, and then slide it back into place.
What does the 'Defrost' button do?
The Defrost function toasts frozen bread from frozen. It adjusts the toasting time to account for the bread being cold.
Is this toaster suitable for bagels?
Yes, the wide slots are designed to accommodate bagels, and the high-lift eject feature makes them easy to retrieve. You may want to use the side of the bagel facing inwards for optimal toasting.
Can I stop the toasting process early?
Yes, simply press the 'Cancel' button at any time to stop the toasting cycle immediately.
How often should I empty the crumb tray?
It is recommended to empty the crumb tray after each use to prevent a buildup of crumbs, which can be a fire hazard.
Does the green colour fade over time?
The exterior colour is designed for durability. Gentle cleaning with a damp cloth will help maintain its appearance. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Troubleshooting
Toaster not turning on
Ensure the toaster is securely plugged into a working electrical outlet. Check if the power cord is damaged.
Uneven toasting
Use the self-centring guides by ensuring the bread slices are placed in the middle of the slots. Clean out any accumulated crumbs that might be obstructing heating elements.
Toast is too light or too dark
Adjust the browning control knob to your desired setting (1 for lightest, 6 for darkest). Experiment to find the perfect setting for different types of bread.
Smell of burning during first use
A slight odor is normal during the first few uses as manufacturing residues burn off. Run the toaster empty on a medium setting a couple of times to dissipate the smell.
High-lift function not working
Ensure the lever is pushed fully upwards to engage the high-lift mechanism. Check for any obstructions around the lever mechanism.

Care:
