FAQs
What is the capacity of this toaster?
The Progress Mellow Toaster has a 2-slice capacity.
Can I toast bagels with this toaster?
Yes, you can toast bagels. For best results, use the wider slots and adjust the browning control. The built-in warming rack is also ideal for keeping bagels warm.
How do I clean the crumb tray?
The crumb tray slides out from the base of the toaster. Simply remove it, empty the crumbs, wipe it clean with a damp cloth, and slide it back into place.
What does the defrost function do?
The defrost function toasts bread that is straight from the freezer. It adjusts the toasting time to account for the frozen state, ensuring properly toasted results.
Can I stop the toasting cycle early?
Yes, there is a cancel button that will immediately stop the toasting cycle.
Is the warming rack removable?
The warming rack is designed to fold down or be positioned over the slots for use. It is not intended to be removed.
What is the benefit of the reheat function?
The reheat function allows you to warm up previously toasted bread without further browning, ideal if your toast has gone cold.
Troubleshooting
Toaster not turning on
Ensure the power cord is securely plugged into a working electrical outlet. Check if the power switch (if applicable) is in the 'on' position.
Uneven toasting
Ensure bread slices are centered in the slots. Check if the browning control is set appropriately. Some variation is normal depending on bread type and thickness.
Bread gets jammed
Unplug the toaster immediately and let it cool. Gently try to dislodge the bread once cool. Avoid using metal objects. If persistent, contact customer support.
Smoke coming from toaster
This can be caused by accumulated crumbs or sugary residue. Unplug, let cool, and clean the crumb tray thoroughly. Run on a high setting briefly to burn off any residue if necessary.
Warming rack not heating
Ensure the warming rack is properly seated. The rack itself does not generate heat but uses the toaster's heat. Ensure the toaster is functioning correctly.
