Can I toast frozen waffles?

How do I clean the exterior of the toaster?
Wipe the exterior with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh cleaning chemicals or abrasive materials to preserve the finish.
What size bread can fit in the slots?

How often should I empty the crumb tray?
It is recommended to empty the crumb tray after each use or when it appears full to prevent fire hazards and ensure optimal performance.
Does the toaster have a high-lift feature?
While not explicitly stated, the self-centring slots assist with even toasting. For retrieving smaller items, exercise caution after unplugging.
Troubleshooting
Toaster does not turn on.
Ensure the power cord is securely plugged into a working electrical outlet. Check if the power outlet is functioning by plugging in another appliance.
Toast is unevenly browned.
Ensure bread slices are centered in the slots using the self-centring guides. Check if the crumb tray is full, as this can sometimes affect performance. Clean the crumb tray.
Toaster is smoking.
This may be due to accumulated crumbs. Unplug the toaster, allow it to cool, and empty the crumb tray. If smoking persists after cleaning, discontinue use.
Bread gets stuck in the slots.
Never attempt to forcibly remove stuck bread while the toaster is plugged in. Unplug the toaster and allow it to cool completely. Gently try to dislodge the bread. Ensure only appropriate items are inserted.
