Plug power cord into the wall   outlet.   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.   1. Insert slice(s) of bread   Be sure that multiple slices do not overlap and that the   carriage is in the up position.   Frozen waffles, pancakes, french toast and frozen bagels   These breads and pastries should be warmed using the   Defrost button.   2. Set the browning control.   Turn rotary dial to the desired position:   Dial Setting   1-2   Color   light   medium   dark   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.   3-4   5-6   Note: Use controls and carriage lever on the left to toast items   in slots 1 and 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 and 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 press the Cancel   button.   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   • Never force foods into the toasting slot. Foods should fit freely   between the guide wires.   Do not place buttered breads or pastries with fillings or frostings in   the toaster, as this could create a fire hazard.   • • For slightly dry bread, use a lower setting than you normally would.   • For very fresh bread or whole wheat bread, use a higher setting   than normal.   • • Uneven toasting is usually due to bread slices of uneven thickness.   After use, unplug your toaster from the electrical outlet.   • • Breads with very uneven surfaces (such as English muffins) will   require a higher toast setting.   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.   Defrost button   The Defrost button is designed to first defrost and then toast the bread,   which extends the toasting cycle slightly.   1. Insert slice(s) of bread.   • • 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.   Be sure that multiple slices do not overlap and the carriage is in   the up position.   2. Set the browning control.   Settings 1-2   Before toasting bagels, slice each bagel into two equal halves.   For refrigerated breads and thinner frozen items such as   frozen pancakes.   Download from Www.Somanuals.com.

Press the carriage control lever until it locks into position.   For toaster pastries, frozen waffles and (thin) French toast,   and refrigerated bagels.   3. Press the Bagel button. Blue LED indicates feature is   activated.   Settings 5-6   For thicker frozen items such as bagels, hand-cut bread and   thick French toast.   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   press the Cancel button to interrupt.   3. Press the Carriage control lever until it locks into position.   4. Press the Defrost button. Blue LED indicates feature is acti-   vated.   To stop cycle   CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE   Always allow the toaster to cool completely before cleaning.   1. Always unplug the toaster from the electrical outlet before cleaning.   When the defrost cycle is complete, the toaster will raise the bread.   If you wish to stop the cycle before it is finished, simply press the   Cancel button to interrupt.   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.   After use, unplug the toaster from the electrical outlet.   Reheat Button   The reheat feature allows you to reheat bread without browning   or toasting.   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.   1. Insert slice(s) of bread.   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.   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. Press the Reheat button. Blue LED indicates feature is acti-   vated.   5. Never wrap the cord around the outside of the toaster. Use the cord   storage cleats on the underside of the toaster.   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 press the   Cancel button to interrupt.   Bagel button   The bagel feature adds extra time to the toasting cycle to allow for   halved bagels or thicker breads.   1. Insert slice(s) of bread or halved bagels   Be sure that multiple slices do not overlap and the carriage is in the   up position.   Download from Www.Somanuals.com.

You are a consumer if you   own a Cuisinart® Countdown Metal 4-Slice Toaster that was purchased at   retail for personal, family or household use. Except as otherwise required   under applicable law, this warranty is not available to retailers or other   commercial purchasers or owners.   This warranty excludes all incidental or consequential damages. Some   states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of these damages, so they   may not apply to you.   We warrant that your Cuisinart® Countdown Metal 4-Slice Toaster will be   free of defects in materials and workmanship under normal home use for   3 years from the date of original purchase.   CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS ONLY:   California law provides that for In-Warranty Service, California residents   have the option of returning a nonconforming product (A) to the store   where it was purchased or (B) to another retail store which sells Cuisinart   products of the same type.   We suggest you complete and return the enclosed product registration   card promptly to facilitate verification of the date of original purchase.   However, return of the product registration card does not eliminate the   need for the consumer to maintain the original proof of purchase in order   to obtain the warranty benefits. In the event that you do not have proof of   purchase date, the purchase date for purposes of this warranty will be the   date of manufacture.   If your Cuisinart® Countdown Metal 4-Slice Toaster should prove to be   defective within the warranty period, we will repair it, or if we think   necessary, replace it.

If the above two options do not   result in the appropriate relief to the consumer, the consumer may then   take the product to an independent repair facility if service or repair can   be economically accomplished. Cuisinart and not the consumer will be   responsible for the reasonable cost of such service, repair, replacement,   or refund for nonconforming products under warranty.   California residents may also, according to their preference, return   nonconforming products directly to Cuisinart for repair, or if necessary,   replacement, by calling our Consumer Service Center toll-free at 1-800-   726-0190.   To facilitate the speed and accuracy of your return, please enclose $10.00   for shipping and handling of the product.   Cuisinart will be responsible for the cost of the repair, replacement, and   shipping and handling for such products under warranty.   Please pay by check or money order (California residents need only   supply proof of purchase and should call 1-800-726-0190 for shipping   instructions).   BEFORE RETURNING YOUR CUISINART® PRODUCT   If you are experiencing problems with your Cuisinart® product, we   suggest that you call our Cuisinart® Service Center at 1-800-726-0190   before returning the product serviced.
