INTRODUCTION
Cuisinart has streamlined the 4-slice toaster! The Compact 4-Slice
Toaster is two toasters in one, with two separate control panels to
let you toast two types of breads, bagels, or muffins at the same
time. LED lights next to each button let you monitor the toasting
process. The 9-setting LED backlit browning dials make it easier
than ever to choose the shades you want.

Single Slice Toasting:
USE AND CARE
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.
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.
Notes on Specialty Uses:
The following breads and pastries should be warmed using the
"Defrost" button:
Be sure that multiple slices do not overlap and that the carriage
is in the up position.
2. Set the Browning Control.
Frozen Waffles, Pancakes, French Toast and Frozen Bagels

3. To Begin Toasting.
Use controls and carriage lever on the right to toast items

4. To Stop Toasting.
Some notes on browning:
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.
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.
Defrost Button
•
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.
The "Defrost" button is designed to first defrost and then toast the
bread, which extends the toasting cycle slightly.
•
Before toasting bagels, slice each bagel into two equal halves.

CUISINART® COMPACT TOASTER
LIMITED 3 YEAR WARRANTY
This limited warranty is available to consumers only. You are a consumer if
you own a Cuisinart® Toaster which was purchased at retail for personal,
family or household use. Except as otherwise required under applicable
state law, this warranty is not available to retailers or other commercial
purchasers or owners.
BEFORE RETURNING YOUR
CUISINART PRODUCT
We warrant that your Cuisinart® Toaster will be free of defects in materials
and workmanship under normal home use for three years from the original
date of purchase.
If you are experiencing problems with your Cuisinart product, we suggest
that you call our Consumer Service Center at 1-800-726-0190 before
returning the product for servicing. Often, our Consumer Service
Representatives can help solve the problem without having the product
serviced. If servicing is needed, a representative can confirm whether the
product is under warranty and direct you to the nearest service location.
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 toaster should prove to be defective within the warran-
ty period, we will repair or replace it at our option, without charge to you.
To obtain warranty service, simply send the defective product to:

Your Cuisinart® Toaster has been manufactured to the strictest specifica-
tions and has been designed for use with authorized Cuisinart® accessories
and replacement parts. THIS WARRANTY EXPRESSLY EXCLUDES ANY
DEFECTS OR DAMAGES CAUSED BY ACCESSORIES, REPLACE-
MENT PARTS OR REPAIR SERVICE OTHER THAN THOSE WHICH
HAVE BEEN AUTHORIZED BY CUISINART. THIS LIMITED WARRANTY
DOES NOT COVER ANY DAMAGE CAUSED BY ACCIDENT, MISUSE,
SHIPMENT OR OTHER THAN ORDINARY HOUSEHOLD USE.
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. The retail store shall then decide to either repair
the product, refer the consumer to an independent repair facility, replace
the product, or refund the purchase price less the amount directly
attributable to the consumer’s prior usage of the product. If either of the
above two options does 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
800-726-0190. Cuisinart will be responsible for the cost of the repair,
replacement, and shipping and handling of such nonconforming
products under Warranty.
THIS WARRANTY EXCLUDES ALL INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL
DAMAGES. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of these
damages, so these exclusions may not apply to you. ALL APPLICABLE
IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTY OF
MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE,
GIVEN TO YOU BY LAW, ARE HEREBY LIMITED IN DURATION TO
THIS WARRANTY.
