  3. Turn the browning dial to a lower number for lighter toast or a higher number for darker toast.
  4. Press Bagel for bagels, Defrost for frozen items, Reheat for warming already-toasted food, or Cancel to stop early.
  5. Lower the lever and stay nearby while the toaster is heating.
  6. Use the high-lift lever to raise small items; do not put fingers, forks, knives, or metal tools into the slots.
