SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS  
Other Consumer Safety Information  
To avoid a circuit overload, do not operate another  
high wattage appliance on the same circuit.  
The length of the cord used on this appliance was  
selected to reduce the hazards of becoming tangled  
in, or tripping over, a longer cord. If a longer cord is  
necessary, an approved extension cord may be  
used. The electrical rating of the extension cord  
must be equal to or greater than the rating of the  
toaster. Care must be taken to arrange the exten-  
sion cord so that it will not drape over the counter-  
top or tabletop where it can be pulled on by chil-  
dren or accidentally tripped over.  
This appliance is equipped with a polarized plug.  
This type of plug has one blade wider than the  
other. The plug will fit into an electrical outlet only  
one way. This is a safety feature intended to help  
reduce the risk of electrical shock. If you are unable  
to insert the plug into the outlet, try reversing the  
plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact a qual-  
ified electrician to replace the obsolete outlet. Do  
not attempt to defeat the safety purpose of the  
polarized plug by modifying the plug in any way.

Using Your Toaster  
1. Plug toaster into electrical outlet.  
3. At the end of toasting cycle, bread  
will pop up automatically.  
NOTE: The bread lifter will not  
latch down unless the toaster is  
plugged in.  
2. Place bread or bagel in slots. If  
toasting bagels or English muffins,

Tips and Troubleshooting  
Toasting is affected by the tempera-  
ture of the bread. Room temperature  
bread may toast to a medium color  
on Medium. The same type of bread  
that has been refrigerated may require  
setting Medium Dark, and if frozen,  
Dark.  
• The moisture content will also affect  
toasting. Fresh bagels, made locally,  
will have a higher moisture content  
than bagels purchased in the bread  
• Because of the irregular surface of  
English muffins, they may require  
more than one toasting cycle. After  
toasting for one cycle on Medium  
Dark, if a darker shade is desired,  
adjust shade selector to setting Light  
or Medium Light and toast for a sec-  
ond cycle. Watch closely to avoid  
overbrowning. English muffins cut  
with a knife toast more evenly than  
English muffins split with a fork.  
section of the supermarket. The bagel To remove food that becomes lodged  
setting extends toasting time to allow  
most bagels to toast in one cycle.  
Fresh bagels made locally may  
require two toasting cycles.  
• Dark is the darkest shade of toast  
color. If a darker shade is desired,  
reset at Medium, watch closely and  
toast for a second cycle.  
in food slots, disconnect from outlet  
and allow toaster to cool. Turn  
toaster upside down and shake. Do  
not use fork or other utensil that  
could damage heating element or  
result in risk of fire or electrical shock.  
• When toasting a single slice, you may  
notice variations in bread color from  
side to side.  
Shock-Resistant Concealed Elements  
A mica shield protects and conceals the heating elements inside each slot,  
reducing risk of shock due to accidental contact with a metal utensil.  
Therefore, the heating elements are not visible and will not glow red.

Cleaning Your Toaster  
NOTE: If the toaster is used daily, the  
crumb tray should be cleaned weekly.  
1. Unplug toaster and let cool.  
2. Slide out crumb tray, discard  
crumbs and wipe tray with clean  
cloth. Replace crumb tray.  
3. Wipe outside of toaster with a damp  
cloth. Do not use abrasive cleansers  
that may scratch the surface of the  
toaster.

Bread  
100% Whole Wheat Bread  
*Use mixer equipped with dough hooks.  
112 teaspoons active dry yeast  
1 cup warm water  
12 teaspoon salt  
1 egg  
3 to 312 cups whole wheat flour  
5 tablespoons vegetable oil  
5 tablespoons honey  
In a large bowl sprinkle yeast over water. Let stand 5 to 10 minutes or until foamy. Stir  
to mix, then add oil, honey, salt, and egg. Mix. Add 2 cups of the flour and mix for  
about 1 minute. Let stand about 20 minutes until bubbly and starting to rise. Add 1  
more cup flour and mix.* Add enough of the remaining flour until dough forms a  
smooth ball that is slightly sticky to the touch.  
Place dough in large, greased bowl. Cover and let rise 30 minutes or until double in  
size. Punch dough down and let rise 1 hour. Punch down. Shape into loaf. Place into  
9x5 inch greased loaf pan and let rise until double in size, about 30 minutes. Bake at  
400°F for 30 minutes.  
Substitution: For this whole wheat bread, do not substitute all-purpose flour for any  
of the whole wheat flour.  
Success Tip!  
To shape loaves, roll out the dough to a rectangle, with the shorter side being slightly  
longer than the length of the pan. Starting at the shorter end, roll up the dough. Tuck  
the end under and place in the greased loaf pan.  
Basic White Bread  
*Use mixer equipped with dough hooks.  
112 teaspoons active dry yeast  
2 tablespoons sugar  
1 teaspoons salt  
114 cups warm water  
112 tablespoons butter or  
margarine, melted  
3 to 312 cups all-purpose flour  
In a large mixing bowl, combine yeast and 14 cup warm water. Stir until dissolved.  
Add remaining warm water, butter, sugar and salt. Stir until mixed. Add 3 cups of flour  
and mix* until blended. Add enough of the remaining flour until dough forms a smooth  
ball that is slightly sticky to the touch.  
Place dough in large, greased bowl. Cover and let rise until double in size, about 1  
hour. Punch dough down and shape into loaf. Place loaf into 9x5-inch greased loaf  
pan and let rise until double in size, about an hour. Bake at 400°F for 30 minutes.  
Success Tip!  
Warm water for dissolving dry yeast should be between 105°F and 115°F. If a ther-  
mometer isn't available, run hot water over your wrist. It should feel very warm, but  
not uncomfortably hot.

Bread  
Onion Herb Bread  
*Use mixer equipped with dough hooks.  
112 teaspoons active dry yeast  
2 tablespoons sugar  
12 teaspoon salt  
14 cup warm water  
14 teaspoon dried dill weed  
18 teaspoon ground sage  
6 tablespoons yellow cornmeal  
2 to 212 cups bread flour  
1 tablespoon vegetable oil  
14 cup finely chopped onion  
34 cup milk  
1 tablespoon dried parsley flakes  
In small bowl dissolve yeast in warm water. In small pan, saute onion in oil until tender.  
In large mixing bowl combine onion, milk, parsley, sugar, salt, dillweed, sage, and  
yeast. Stir to mix. Add cornmeal and 2 cups of the flour. Mix on Speed 5 or 6. Add  
enough of the remaining flour until dough forms a smooth ball that is slightly sticky to  
the touch. Place dough in large, greased bowl. Cover and let rise until double in size.  
Punch down dough and shape into loaf. Place into 9x5 inch greased loaf pan and let  
rise until double in size about 40 minutes or until double in size. Bake in 400°F oven  
for 30 minutes.  
Substitution: If fresh dill weed is on hand, 1 tablespoon of chopped, fresh dill weed  
can be used instead of 12 teaspoon of dried dill weed.  
Success Tip!  
Bread dough rises best at a temperature between 75°F and 85°F. If the kitchen is  
cold, place the bowl of covered dough on a rack in the oven. Place a bowl of hot  
water on a rack below. Do not turn on the oven during rising.  
Honey Wheat Bread  
*Use mixer equipped with dough hooks  
112 teaspoons active dry yeast  
2 tablespoons honey  
14 cup warm water  
1 teaspoons salt  
34 cup + 2 tablespoons milk  
2 tablespoons butter or margarine, melted  
112 cups whole wheat flour  
1 to 2 cups all-purpose flour  
In a large mixing bowl, combine yeast and water. Stir until dissolved. Add milk, butter,  
honey, and salt. Stir until mixed. Add whole wheat flour and 1 cup of all-purpose flour  
and mix until blended. Add enough of the remaining flour and continue kneading until  
dough forms a smooth ball that is slightly sticky to the touch. Place dough in large,  
greased bowl and cover with a towel. Let rise until double in size, about an hour.  
Punch dough down and shape into loaf. Place loaf into 9x5-inch greased loaf pan  
and let rise until double in size, about 1 hour. Bake in 400°F oven about 30 minutes.  
Substitution: Follow the recipe, using the given amounts of whole wheat bread and  
all-purpose flour. Substituting all whole-wheat flour can result in a coarse and dense  
texture.  
Success Tip!  
Always store honey at room temperature, not in the refrigerator. Refrigeration promotes  
crystallization. Some crystallization will occur even at room temperature and this is  
normal. To remove crystals, place the jar of honey in warm water until crystals melt.
