Uneven toasting
Ensure bread slices are centered within the slots. Check for any obstructions or debris inside the slots. Try adjusting the browning level.
Toast is too light or too dark
Adjust the browning control knob to a lower or higher setting as needed. Refer to the 'Performance & Real-World Use' section for suggested settings.
High-lift lever is stuck
Ensure the toaster is unplugged and cool. Gently try to dislodge any obstructions. Do not force the lever.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:

Care and Cleaning:

- Crumb Tray: Slide out the removable crumb tray located at the bottom of the toaster. Dispose of crumbs and wipe the tray clean with a damp cloth. Slide it back into place.
- Exterior: Wipe the exterior surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as they can scratch the finish.
