Steps:

1. Before Teardown

2. Turn the toaster upside down
3. Unscrew all 6 slotted spanner screws using the slotted spanner head screwdriver
4. Then unscrew all 4 slotted Phillips heads screws using a Phillips head screwdriver

5. The slotted spanner screws hold 4 rubber feet in place
6. Rubber feet can now be detached

7. Detach timer knob using flat head screwdriver, insert screwdriver between knob and sliding hatch and apply slight pressure away from toaster

8. Pulling out crumb tray from underneath, using handle

9. Lift top casing, being careful of the ribbon cable connected from the casing to the circuit board
10. Carefully rest the top casing on the side facing the ribbon cable

11. Disconnect the cable connector by pulling away from the circuit board
12. Unscrew the Phillip head screw inside the top casing
13. Disconnecting the earth cable from the top casing, and disconnecting the Exterior casing and internal components

14. Place casing on the side, allowing for the removal of the Sliding mechanism frame, LED strip cover and a heat vent grill on the opposite side
15. Detach sliding mechanism frame, by inserting a flat head screwdriver pulling towards the frame, unfolding the 6 metal pieces, releasing the sliding mechanism frame along with the LED strip cover. Which can be pulled out using the flat head screwdriver, with no pressure required
