Kitchen Gourmet 2-Slice Cool Touch W14A4694

To access the crumb tray, turn the toaster around and pull the handle straight out.

Remove the handle of the toaster.

Turn over the toaster and remove the four 13 mm recessed Phillips #2 screws.

Remove the cover of the toaster. This may take some wiggling.

Remove the two 8 mm Philips #2 front screws and the two 12mm rear screws that attach the heating system to the base and lift straight up.

Upon removal of the heating system, the circuit board can be popped out in the direction of the back of the toaster.

Unfold the four metal tabs on each side of the heating system but don’t remove the panels yet.

The panels will still be attached at the top, so pull the bottom out and unfold the two tabs shown below.

Once the panels come loose, remove them.

Upon completing the previous two steps for each side of the toaster, the top should come loose as well. Remove this by pulling straight up.

You now have access to the insides of the heating element. To remove the springs or grates that hold the food item, unfold the metal tabs.

To fully remove these pieces from the toaster, cut the three heating wires. To regain the function of the toaster after snipping the wires, reattach them back in place.
