FAQs
Can I toast bagels in the Haden Dorchester?
Yes, the extra-wide slots are designed to accommodate thicker items like bagels.
How often should I clean the crumb tray?
It is recommended to empty the crumb tray at least once a week to prevent burnt crumbs from accumulating and causing smoke.
What does the cancel button do?
The cancel button immediately stops the toasting cycle and pops the bread up, allowing you to stop the process if you notice the bread is browning too quickly.
Is the exterior cool to the touch?
The exterior may become warm during extended use; it is advised to handle the toaster by the lever and plastic controls only.
What is the wattage of this toaster?
The toaster is designed for standard household power usage; please refer to the silver rating label on the bottom of your specific unit for exact wattage details.
Troubleshooting
Toast is not browning evenly
Ensure that the bread slice is centered in the slot and the crumb tray is not overfilled, which can interfere with heat circulation.
The lever will not stay down
The toaster must be plugged into a power source for the lever to engage. Check the power connection at the wall outlet.
Bread is stuck in the slot
Unplug the toaster immediately and allow it to cool. Use a non-metallic, insulated tool to gently remove the obstruction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Unpack the toaster and place it on a heat-resistant, level surface at least 10cm away from walls. Prior to the first use, run the toaster on the highest setting without any bread to burn off any manufacturing residues; ensure the room is well-ventilated during this process.
Compatibility: The slots accommodate standard bread, bagels, and crumpets. Always avoid forcing thick items into the slots to prevent damage to the internal elements.
Care: Unplug the device and allow it to cool completely before cleaning. Slide out the crumb tray from the base periodically to empty debris into the bin. Wipe the exterior with a soft, damp cloth and dry immediately; avoid using abrasive cleaners which may damage the beige finish.
