Timers and alerts
you can set the timer from 1 minute to 2 hrs. 2 hours is extremely generous. Most of the models have a timer from 30 min to 1 and a half hours. Within 2 hrs you can able to cook anything you wish. If you still want additional time, add it at any moment while cooking. Temperature also can be changed during the process of cooking.You will hear the alert alarms twice on this machine. The first one is when the preheating of food is completed. If you keep your food in very soon, it will be overcooked, and if you keep very late, food will be undercooked. This problem is removed in this model because of preheating alerts as it tells the exact time to keep the food inside the toaster for cooking. The second alert alarm you hear is when the food is cooked.
