KitchenAid 2-Slice Toaster with High Lift Lever Use & Care Manual

Press down on lift lever to start the 

toasting cycle. If Keep Warm isn’t 

selected, the toast will rise automatically 

at the end of the cycle and the Toaster 

will turn off.

TIP: For smaller items, lift up on the lift 

lever to raise toast above the top of the 

Toaster.

Insert bread or other food to be toasted 

into the slot(s). 

 

 

 

Select your desired shade by turning 

the shade control knob to the right for 

darker toasting or to the left for lighter 

toasting. To reheat toast that has cooled, 

turn the shade control knob to the far 

left of the shade control settings.

NOTE: The age, type, and moisture level 

of different breads may require different 

shade settings. For example, dry bread will 

brown more rapidly than moist bread and 

will require a lighter setting.

NOTE: To activate the Keep Warm 

function, press down on the lift lever,  

then press the KEEP WARM button.

NOTE: For even toasting, toast only one  

bread type and thickness at a time. If 

toasting bagels, be sure to press the  

Bagel button. See “Toasting Bagels.”

To cancel toasting at any time, press 

CANCEL. The Toaster will raise the 

toast and turn off. 

 

Simple start-to-finish toasting: Select any, or all, of the three special toasting functions  

(defrost, bagel, or keep warm), and the Toaster will automatically move from one step  

to the next without any additional effort on your part.
