INTRODUCTION
The heavy cast metal construction of this premium Cuisinart®
toaster has a trendsetting look for today’s sophisticated consumer
kitchen. Cuisinart combines simplicity of operation with expert
technology in this retro-styled, full-featured toaster. Two
independent sets of controls each operate two of the four slots.
Delight family and friends with different items toasted to
different shades. No waiting required.
A “CD-style” pop-out crumb tray makes this toaster easier to
clean than most and both the smooth cast metal and the
brushed stainless centre panel clean up with a damp cloth.

USE AND CARE
•
•
When toasting raisin or other fruit breads, remove any loose
raisins, etc. from the surface of the bread before placing into
the toaster. This will help prevent fruit pieces from falling into
the toaster or sticking on the guide wires in the slot.
Unwind the power cord. Check that the crumb tray is in place and
that there is nothing in the toaster slot. Plug power cord into the
wall outlet.
1. Insert Slice(s) of Bread.
Before toasting bagels, slice each bagel into two equal halves.
Be sure that multiple slices do not overlap and that the carriage
is in the up position.
Single Slice Toasting:
If you are toasting a single slice of bread, set the heat selector to
a lighter setting than you normally would. The toaster is designed
to heat the whole toasting chamber for two slices. By lowering the
heat for a single slice, you won't overtoast.
2. Set the Browning Control.
Turn rotary switch to the desired position:

Toaster pastries: Exercise caution with toaster pastries; the filling
can become quite hot, long before the surface of the pastry
becomes browned. Never leave toaster pastries unattended while
toasting or warming.

Note: Use controls and carriage lever on the left to toast items
in slots 1 & 2.
3. To Begin Toasting:
Press the carriage lever until it locks into the down position.
Use controls and carriage lever on the right to toast items
in slots 3 & 4.
4. To Stop Toasting:
When the toasting cycle is finished, the toast will be raised.
If you wish to stop the cycle before it is finished, simply lift
carriage lever to interrupt.
Some notes on browning:
Toasting is a combination of cooking and drying of the bread.
Therefore, differences in moisture level from one bread to another
can result in varying toasting times.
Tips:
•
•
•
•
For slightly dry bread, use a lower setting than you normally
would.
•
•
•
•
Never force foods into the toasting slot. Foods should fit freely
between the guide wires.
For very fresh bread or whole wheat bread, use a higher setting
than normal.
Do not place buttered breads or pastries with fillings or frost-
ings in the toaster, as this could create a fire hazard.
Breads with very uneven surfaces (such as English muffins) will
require a higher toast setting.
Uneven toasting is usually due to bread slices of uneven
thickness.
Thickly cut pieces of bread (including bagels) will take longer to
toast, sometimes significantly longer, since more moisture must
be evaporated from the bread before toasting can occur. Very
thick pieces may require two cycles.
After use, unplug your toaster from the electrical outlet.

Reheat Function
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
The reheat feature allows you to reheat bread without browning
or toasting.
Always allow the toaster to cool completely before cleaning.
1. Always unplug the toaster from the electrical outlet.
1. Insert slice(s) of bread.
Be sure that multiple slices do not overlap and the carriage is
in the up position.
2. Do not use abrasive cleansers. Simply wipe the exterior with
a clean damp cloth and dry thoroughly. Apply any cleansing
agent to a cloth, not to the toaster, before cleaning.
2. Press the carriage control lever until it locks into position.
3. Turn shade dial to reheat setting.
3. To remove crumbs, slide out the crumb tray and discard
crumbs. Wipe clean and replace. Never operate the toaster `
without the crumb tray in place.
To stop cycle:
When the reheat cycle is complete, the toaster will raise the
bread. If you wish to stop the cycle before it is finished, simply lift
carriage lever to interrupt.
4. To remove any pieces of bread remaining in the toaster, turn
the toaster upside down and gently shake. Never insert any
hard or sharp instruments into the slot, as this could damage
the toaster and cause a safety hazard.
Bagel Function
5. Never wrap the cord around the outside of the toaster. Use
the cord storage cleats on the underside of the toaster.
The bagel feature adds extra time to the toasting cycle to allow for
thicker breads.
1. Insert slice(s) of bread.
Be sure that multiple slices do not overlap and the carriage is
in the up position.
2. Press the carriage control lever until it locks into position.
3. Turn shade dial to bagel setting.
To stop cycle:
When the bagel cycle is complete, the toaster will raise the bread.
If you wish to stop the cycle before it is finished, simply lift the
carriage lever to interrupt.
