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  
Turn rotary dial to the desired position:

Some notes on browning:  
3. To Begin Toasting.  
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.  
Press the carriage lever until it locks into the down position.  
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.  
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.  
Tips:  
Never force foods into the toasting slot. Foods should fit freely  
between the guide wires.  
Breads with very uneven surfaces (such as English muffins) will  
require a higher toast setting.  
Do not place buttered breads or pastries with fillings or frostings  
in the toaster, as this could create a fire hazard.  
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.  
Uneven toasting is usually due to bread slices of uneven  
thickness.  
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.  
After use, unplug your toaster from the electrical outlet.  
Defrost Button  
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.

Your Cuisinart® Toaster has been manufactured to the strictest specifications  
and has been designed for use with authorized Cuisinart® accessories and  
replacement parts. THIS WARRANTY EXPRESSLY EXCLUDES ANY  
DEFECTS OR DAMAGES CAUSED BY ACCESSORIES, REPLACEMENT

AUTHORIZED BY CUISINART. THIS LIMITED WARRANTY DOES NOT  
COVER ANY DAMAGE CAUSED BY ACCIDENT, MISUSE, SHIPMENT OR

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. 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 con-  
sumer’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 respon-  
sible 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,
