Care and Cleaning
Do not clean with metal scouring pads. Pieces can break the Hamilton Beach 840231800 Toaster off the pad and touch the electrical parts, causing a risk of electric shock. Your toaster should be cleaned regularly for best performance and long life. Regular cleaning will also reduce the risk of fire hazards.
Troubleshooting
- Toasting is affected by the temperature of the bread. Room-temperature bread may toast to a medium color on the 2–4 setting. The same type of bread that has been refrigerated may require a darker setting to reach a medium color. The moisture content will also affect toasting.
- Because of the irregular surface of English muffins, they may require more than one toasting cycle. Watch closely to avoid overbrowning. English muffins cut with a knife toast more evenly than English muffins split with a fork.
- When toasting only one slice, the bread may be placed in any slot of the toaster. When toasting a single slice, you may notice variations in bread color from side to side.
