Frequently Asked Questions
TOASTER OVERVIEW
Revolution Cooking InstaGLO technology is a patented heating system that offers a faster, hotter, more consistent and precise heating experience, locking in moisture and flavor. It is faster than conventional toasters and uses less energy. Smart algorithms calculate optimal toast time based on food type, delivering toast exactly the way you like it every time, even from frozen.
Approximately 1” wide and 5.25” long.
These toasting modes allow you to select the setting that matches the food you want to toast. Fresh – For foods you keep on the counter or in the fridge. Frozen – For foods coming out of the freezer. Reheat – For foods you want to warm up a bit, without additional toasting or browning.
Please check with your local and state recycling regulations for information and instructions.
Advanced Heat Science: The Revolution Toaster incorporates our patented InstaGLO heating technology that allows us to create algorithms specifically designed for each bread type. Part of the these algorithms involve the heating elements turning on and off during specific cycles of toasting to create the most optimal toasting outcome.
For example, you may see the outer heating elements turn off and on during the bagel setting (and others) to focus the cooking on the cut side of the bagel and slightly warming the outside to avoid overcooking the item and deliver a fresh out the oven bagel experience.
If you are experiencing any issues with your toaster, please contact us at consumercare@revcook.com or call 888-301-REVO (7386). Please do not attempt to replace any parts of your toaster. Any such product alterations could void your warranty.
Not yet! Our current Revolution Toasters are electronically controlled and can only be used with a 120-Volt power outlet. Products damaged as a result of connection to irregular current or voltage sources or use on electric or other current or voltage other than that marked on the product or user manual will void all warranties. We have taken note of the outpouring of our product and hope to have a compatible version in the future. Stay tuned by Joining the Revolution and signing up for email updates HERE.
R180 CONNECT
The R180 Connect is the World’s first connected toaster! Everything you love about the Revolution InstaGLO R180 Toaster is now with connected features that include wi-fi, an auto-set clock, a weather widget, improved toasting, and over-the-air updates!
Network connectivity is used by your Revolution Toaster to automatically check for software update availability, set the time, and display the weather forecast. It is also used to download software updates (only installed with user permission). By connecting your toaster to receive notifications, date/ time, and weather-related information, you agree that we may collect your IP address. Your toaster does not collect or share any personally identifiable information, nor does Revolution Cooking collect or store usage information from your toaster.
No problem! If you don’t want to connect your toaster to the internet, it will work perfectly as your favorite toaster. You can go into the settings to manually set your clock. Please note if Revolution Cooking releases any software updates, you will need to be connected to receive them.
Once connected to your local wi-fi, one way to find your location is by using the auto-detect function. If that detects your correct location, you're done!
Auto-detect sets your location by pinging the closest hub your internet service provider is using, which may not always be in your home town. If the auto-detect does not display your preferred location, you can use the search bar in the “location” setting to type in your city or town.
Revolution Cooking may release some software updates. To receive these updates, your toaster must be connected to your local network. If the settings menu, a red bubble will appear over “System Update”. Click on that and a message will appear explaining exactly what will be updated. This should only take a couple of minutes and then we will get you right back to toasting!
R270

When turned on, Gluten Free mode accesses algorithms for each bread type tailored to the chemistry of non-gluten ingredients, for better results.
The Panini Press setting is a pre-programmed option to optimize our Toastie Press accessory (sold separately) to ensure you get that perfectly toasted sandwich.
The Warming Rack setting is a pre-programmed option to optimize our Warming Rack accessory (sold separately) to ensure you get that perfectly warmed baked good.
TOASTIE PRESS
Yes! For best results, this accessory is recommended for use with Revolution InstaGLO® Toasters. However, it works great with most toasters but may require additional toasting time. As always, never leave your toaster unattended and cancel the toasting cycle at any time if needed.
The Revolution Toastie Press is designed to fit in any toaster with a standard size slot. The Toastie Press measures 5" wide by 1" deep. Measure your toaster to ensure the slot size is at least 5.1" x 1.1" with a tape measure. We recommend unplugging your toaster before measuring.
If you have a toaster with an automatic lift and lower, we recommend only using 1 Revolution Toastie Press at a time. The weight of two Toastie Presses plus the sandwich ingredients inside may be too heavy for the lift motor. If you have a lever toaster, using two Toastie Presses may not be a problem. In all cases, you should should insert Toastie Presses gently and never push down or force a Toastie Press into place.
Get creative! You can make anything from classic savory grilled cheese to a sweet melty dessert toastie! Do keep in mind not to add oils or items with high moisture that could affect your creation. For inspiration, check out some of our favorite recipeshere.
The Revolution Toastie Press was created with drips in mind! The clam shell closure is designed to contain drips to keep your toaster nice and clean.
The Revolution Toastie Press is easy to clean. You can simply rinse and wipe it clean with a cloth or sponge, plus soap and water, or place it in the dishwasher on the top rack. The Revolution Toastie Press has a non-stick coating, so we recommend avoiding scraping, or using harsh scrub pads. Just a soft cloth or sponge should do the trick!
WARMING RACK
No problem! Our warming rack can be used with any of our Revolution toasters. For best performance, select Bread as your food type, Fresh as your food setting and 5 as your desired level of toasting.
We love warming croissants, muffins, cinnamon rolls, sticky buns, hamburger buns, chocolate chip cookies, and more.
Yes!
CARE & SAFETY
Your toaster will remind you when it’s time to clean the crumb tray! Please follow the steps below to clean your toaster: 1.) Remove the power plug from the power outlet and allow the toaster to cool completely before cleaning. 2.) To clean any crumbs from the toaster, remove the crumb tray by pulling it outwards. Empty and replace the crumb tray before using the toaster again. Replace the crumb tray by sliding it inwards until it locks into position. 3.) Wipe the outside of the toaster with a slightly dampened soft cloth then polish with a soft dry cloth to dry completely.
Wipe clean with damp cloth. Dry thoroughly.
The crumb tray is a tray that slides into the bottom of your toaster, below the heating and cooking elements, to catch the crumbs that may fall off your food while toasting. We recommend emptying the crumb tray often to avoid build up. Failure to clean the crumb tray regularly may result in a fire hazard and damage to the toaster.
To remove the crumb tray, push it in to eject, then pull it towards you. Empty the tray and replace it by sliding it inwards until it locks into position. Be sure to replace the crumb tray before using the toaster again.
To prevent accidental activation your R180 toaster features a specific two-touch start process to ensure your safety.
To ensure that your toaster does not overheat during extensive, continuous use, the R180 is equipped with a thermal safety shut-down. The Start button will be disabled and a “Recalibrating” message will be seen on the touchscreen while your toaster cools down. Once your toaster is ready for use, the Start button will be reactivated.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Unplug your toaster, wait 30 seconds and plug it back in to reboot your toaster. After the reboot, you will need to update the date and time settings on your clock display.
Unplug your toaster, wait 30 seconds and plug it back in to reboot your toaster. After the reboot, you will need to update the date and time settings on your clock display. If the reboot did not work, please contact us at consumercare@revcook.com or 888-301-REVO (7386).
Stop using your toaster immediately. Carefully unplug the toaster by grasping the plug and pulling to disconnect. Do not unplug the toaster by pulling on the damaged cord. Please contact us at consumercare@revcook.com or 888-301-REVO (7386).
If food jams in the toaster slots while toasting, unplug from the outlet and wait for the toaster to cool completely before removing the food. Do not attempt to dislodge food when toaster is plugged in. Do not insert utensils in the toaster as they may damage heating elements as well as involve a risk of fire or electric shock.
Unplug your toaster and allow the toaster to cool completely. If there is food in the toaster, remove it before trying to remove the crumb tray again. If you are unsuccessful in removing the crumb tray, please contact us at consumercare@revcook.com or call 888-301-REVO (7386) for assistance.
When first using your toaster a mild odor is normal and will subside. Before using your toaster for the first time, however, we recommend selecting Bread, Level 4, and running two toast cycles without food in the toaster to prepare it for toasting (don’t forget to first remove the cardboard inserts).
Your toaster carriage is equipped with auto lift and lower. If that isn’t working properly, unplug your toaster for 5 minutes and plug it back in. If it still does not work, please contact us at consumercare@revcook.com or call 888-301-REVO (7386).
To enable your start button, you must first tap the “Food” selection of choice then the start button to begin toasting. This two-touch start process was designed to prevent accidental activation on your R180 toaster to ensure your safety.
TOASTING
All types of breads, bagels, English Muffins, toaster pastries and waffles are suitable for toasting. The different moisture levels in breads do require various toasting times, which is why our smart sensor technology provides 5 food settings and 7 toasting shades to optimize toasting based on food type.
No, larger bakery-style bagels require a different toasting setting for perfect results. If you typically toast these larger bagels, press the gear icon and select the “Large Bagel” setting. Note: your toaster’s default setting is optimized for pre-packaged, store-bought bagels.
Uneven toasting is often due to the varying thickness of the bread or bagel. We recommend that you slice bagels and English Muffins into equal halves before toasting.
Yes. We recommend you remove any loose fruit from the surface of the bread to avoid it falling into the toaster or sticking to the toaster carriage. The extra sugar and moisture in a fruit bread may require you to adjust the settings to avoid burning the fruit. You can always press the cancel button if needed.
No, butter and other spreads or toppings may melt or drip in the toaster, which may damage the toaster or cause a fire.
No, cheeses and other fillings may melt or drip in the toaster, which may damage the toaster or cause a fire. You can, however, purchase and use the Panini Press accessory to make grilled cheese or other toasted sandwiches in your toaster. Learn more here.
No, do not place wrapped food or toaster bags into the toaster. Instead, you can purchase and use the Panini Press accessory to create perfectly toasted sandwiches, quesadillas, melts and more in your Revolution InstaGLO® Toaster. Learn more here.
Yes! Your toaster will defrost and toast bread, bagels, waffles, English muffins and toaster pastries.
For sweeter breads (e.g. challah, Hawaiian bread, etc.), we recommend the following settings:
R270 Toasters: Cinnamon Raisin Bread setting. Or, if you have a Warming Rack accessory, use the Warming Rack setting.
R180 Toasters: Bread, Reheat setting. Or, if you have Warming Rack accessory, use Bread, Fresh, Level 1.
With the extra sugar content in these types of bread, toasting at any other setting can potentially cause your bread to burn or start to smoke. As always, never leave your toaster unattended and cancel the toasting cycle at any time if needed.
