This document describes the LIVOO Digital Display Toaster, model DOD178, version 1.4, in English. It is a household appliance designed for toasting bread.
Function Description:
The LIVOO Digital Display Toaster is designed to toast bread slices to a desired darkness. It features a digital display, likely for showing the toasting progress or time. The toaster includes functions for defrosting frozen bread and reheating cooled toast. It has two bread slots, a toaster lever to lower and raise the bread, and controls for adjusting the toast darkness. A "Stop" button allows users to interrupt the toasting cycle at any time. The toaster automatically ejects the bread and shuts off once the toasting cycle is complete. For easier removal of toasted bread, it incorporates a lift function.
Important Technical Specifications:
- Voltage: 220-240V~
- Frequency: 50-60Hz
- Power: 1250-1500W
Usage Features:
- Toasting:
- Users place bread slices into the bread slots.
- The desired toast darkness is selected using the "Toaster Darkness Control," which offers seven settings from very light (level 1) to very dark (level 6). A middle position is suggested for golden brown toast.
- The toaster lever is pressed down until it locks, initiating the toasting process. The "Stop" indicator lamp lights up.
- The toasting cycle can be interrupted at any time by pressing the "Stop" button.
- Once the bread reaches the set darkness, it is automatically ejected, and the appliance shuts off.
- A lift function allows for easier removal of toasted bread by pushing the toaster lever upward.
- The manual advises conducting one toasting cycle without bread before first use to prepare the appliance.
- Defrost Function:
- This function first thaws frozen bread and then toasts it, making the cycle longer than normal toasting.
- After placing bread and pressing the toaster lever down, users select the desired toast darkness.
- Recommended darkness settings for defrosting include:
- Low (1-2) for bread from the refrigerator or thin frozen bread slices.
- Medium (3-4) for frozen waffles.
- High (5-6) for thicker frozen bread slices and thick toast slices.
- The "DEFROST" button is pressed after the toaster lever is down, and its indicator lamp lights up.
- The cycle can be interrupted with the "Stop" button.
- Upon completion, the bread is automatically ejected, and indicator lamps turn off.
- Reheat Function:
- This function allows reheating of toast that has cooled too quickly.
- Users replace the toast in the toaster.
- The browning control is set to a low setting.
- The loading handle (toaster lever) is pressed down.
- The "REHEAT" button is pressed, and its indicator lights up, ensuring the toast doesn't burn.
- The loading handle automatically rises when reheating is complete.
- Tips for Ideal Toasting Results:
- Different bread types have varying moisture content, affecting toasting results at the same darkness setting.
- For slightly dry bread, a lower darkness setting is recommended.
- For fresh or whole grain bread, a higher darkness setting is advised.
- Bread with an irregular surface may require a higher darkness setting.
- Thick bread slices may need more time or a second toasting cycle.
- When toasting raisin bread, remove all raisins from the surface to prevent burning.
- For single-slice toasting, select a low darkness setting.
- Subsequent slices toasted consecutively may be darker at the same setting.
- For frozen bread or waffles, use the thaw button.
