You can get a service and repair manual form the above link.
The only way that something like that could happen was if the wiring or switching was faulty. You see an element is simply a Big Resistor/Resistance, that gets hot when electricity is passed through it, the amount of heat is a function of the resistance and voltage/current as opposed to resistance, the less resistance and More Voltage and current the hotter something will get. to a mathematical point which it cannot go beyond.
Now all the elements in the any toaster are all the same resistance, and as such, can only get so Hot, and use so much energy. So they should be all the same...
Now if as you suspect, one element is "taking power away from the other 3 elements" (sic)
Well now at first glance everyone would say Oh NO WAY.. But in fact.... WAY.. This is indeed possible, and I have seen it myself. Here's how it can happen.
What can happen is an Element can have it's element winding wires touch together, (Often caused by people using a fork or a knife to get something out of the toaster) well, usually, they just Blow the wires apart, but occasionally then they Fuse them together, (Sometimes they can and do spontaneously touch, as the wires sag with heat and age) Now when they do this, guess what, the resistance of that Element goes DOWN, which means the Current will rise, as the Voltage is constant, and Now this Element WILL BE and Appear to be in fact Hotter than the "Other 3".. and while not exactly "Taking the power away" it is dispersed in a Non-linear fashion due to ONE elements resistance being Lower will glow hotter than the rest.
The Fix, well replace that element.. ya will be good to go..
Also stop putting forks and knifes into the toaster, as this is usually what does it...

Hello Val,

Here's the link directly to Tefal's site where you can select the exact toaster manual from the list provided. I wasn't sure of the exact model, since Tefal has two (2) Avante Deluxe model toasters available (both a 2 and 4 slice version) and sometimes the Fixya site only has a limited selection for certain products for users to request assistance with.

In any case, they are all on the page at the link below. Simply click and you'll get a free manual that you can save or print out for your use and future reference.

If it doesn't come up, simply select "toasters" from the pull down window on the screen and hit "go"

I also have a folder on my computer that I've labeled "Household Appliances and Equipment" into which I save an electronic copy of all Owner's Manuals and Guides for all the appliances we have, just so they're readily available without having to search the web for them.

I hope you find this Very Helpful and best regards!

The other side that isn't toasting has an open element. Usually, the good side will burn twice as hot, and may have stressed that element. You might want to replace both in that slot. make sure you check the voltage rating plate. 208 and 240 volt toasters use different elements.
I just posted the procedure to replace elements, in a similar post here.

No Tricks. The elements are loaded and removed from the top.
DISCONNECT THE POWER CORD
Remove the crumb dtrawers, they are handy to put the parts on so the don't roll away.Remove the temperature knob after releasing the set screw, remove the lever knob after removing the pivot screw. Remove the 3 front and 4 rear cover screws with a philips driver. note the length of the screws from the locations.
Locate the element to change, disconnect the connections at front and back on the top of the element. With a small flat bladed screw driver, open the crimp tabs on each end of the bread guides and lift up. They come out of alignment holes in the lower frame. Replace the element/s, with the correct voltage replacement. 208 and 240 elements are different numbers. Reassemble in reverse order. Be carefull not to catch the element with the bread guard wires. It's common to see a bit of smoke during burnin of new elements for a short time.

That unit is way obsolete. You may have better luck if you can get to the motor and get the information off of it. There may be motor repair shops in your area that can rebuild it or provide a replacement unit.
