Troubleshooting
Toaster not turning 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.
Uneven toasting
Make sure the bread slice is centered using the self-centring function. Ensure bread slices are of similar thickness. Clean out any accumulated crumbs from the crumb tray and interior.
Toast is too light or too dark
Adjust the browning control knob to a lower or higher setting as needed. Experiment with different settings to find your preferred shade. Ensure the correct function (e.g., defrost) is selected if using frozen bread.
Smoke coming from the toaster
Turn off and unplug the toaster immediately. Check for any food debris or large crumbs stuck inside the toasting slots. Empty the crumb tray. Allow the toaster to cool completely before attempting to use it again.
