Need help?Do you have a question about the Livoo DOD170 and is the answer not in the manual?
This document is a user manual for the Livoo Jungle Toaster, model DOD170. It provides comprehensive instructions for safe operation, use, and maintenance of the appliance.
The Livoo Jungle Toaster is designed for household use to toast bread slices. It features multiple settings to control the level of toast darkness, allowing users to achieve their preferred browning. Beyond basic toasting, the appliance also includes specific functions for defrosting frozen bread and reheating previously toasted bread that has cooled. The toaster is equipped with a lever mechanism to lower and raise the bread into the toasting slots, and a stop button to interrupt the toasting cycle at any time. An automatic ejection feature ensures that toast is raised once the cycle is complete, and a lift function is available for easier removal of smaller bread slices. A crumb tray is integrated into the design to collect crumbs, which is crucial for safety and cleanliness.
To use the toaster, bread slices are placed into the bread slots. The user then selects the desired toast darkness using the darkness control, which offers seven settings from very light (level 1) to very dark (level 7). For a golden brown toast, a middle setting is recommended. After setting the darkness, the toast lever is pressed down until it locks into place, initiating the toasting process. An indicator lamp for the "Stop" button illuminates, signifying that the toaster is active. The toasting cycle can be manually stopped at any point by pressing the "Stop" button. Once the bread reaches the set darkness, it is automatically ejected, and the appliance shuts off. For convenient removal of toasted bread, especially smaller pieces, the toast lever can be pressed upward to activate a lift function.
The defrost function is particularly useful for frozen bread. When activated, it first thaws the bread and then toasts it, resulting in a slightly longer cycle compared to normal toasting. To use this, bread slices are placed in the slots, the toast lever is pressed down, and the desired toast darkness is selected. Recommended darkness settings are provided: low (1-2) for refrigerated or thin frozen bread, medium (3-4) for frozen waffles, and high (5-7) for thicker frozen bread or thick toast slices. After the toast lever is down, the "DEFROST" button is pressed, and its indicator lamp lights up. The bread is then thawed and toasted. Similar to regular toasting, the cycle can be interrupted with the "Stop" button. Upon completion, the bread is automatically ejected, and the indicator lamps turn off.
The reheat function allows users to warm up toast that has cooled down. To use this, the cooled toast is placed back into the toaster. The browning control should be set to a low setting to prevent burning. The loading handle is then pressed down, followed by the "REHEAT" button. The reheat indicator will light up, and the toast will be reheated without further browning. The loading handle will automatically rise once the reheating process is complete.
Tips for achieving ideal toasting results are also provided. Different types of bread have varying moisture content, which affects toasting. Drier bread requires a lower darkness setting, while fresh or whole grain bread needs a higher setting. Bread with an irregular surface also benefits from a higher darkness setting. Thicker slices may require more toasting time, possibly even a second cycle. When toasting raisin bread, it is advised to remove any raisins from the surface to prevent them from burning. If only one slice is being toasted, a low darkness setting is recommended. Toasting multiple slices consecutively may result in subsequent slices being darker.
Proper cleaning and storage are essential for the longevity and safe operation of the Livoo Jungle Toaster. Before any cleaning, the appliance must be allowed to cool completely, turned off, and unplugged from the power supply. It is crucial never to immerse the toaster or its power cord in water or any other liquid, nor should it be washed in a dishwasher.
The exterior of the toaster should be wiped with a damp cloth and a small amount of dishwashing detergent. Abrasive scouring agents, steel wool, metal objects, hot cleaning agents, or disinfectants should not be used, as they can damage the appliance.
To remove any bread slices that may become stuck, the toaster should first be unplugged. Then, it can be turned over and gently shaken. Users are explicitly warned against using sharp or pointed tools or silverware to dislodge stuck bread slices, as this poses a risk of electric shock or damage.
The crumb tray is a critical component for maintenance and safety. It must be emptied regularly to prevent crumbs from accumulating and potentially catching fire. To do this, the crumb tray, located on the side, should be pulled all the way out, emptied, and then wiped with a damp cloth. After thorough drying, it should be pushed back into the appliance, ensuring it is correctly placed before the next use. The appliance must be completely dry before it is used again.
The manual also emphasizes that if the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent, or similarly qualified persons to avoid hazards. The toaster should never be operated with wet hands to reduce the risk of electric shock. The power cord should not be allowed to hang over the edge of a table or counter or touch hot surfaces. Unplugging the appliance should always be done by pulling the plug, not the cord itself. Finally, the cord should be unwound flat to prevent superheating of the appliance.
