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

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.  
Use controls and carriage lever on the right to toast items  
in slots 3 & 4.  
Press the carriage lever until it locks into the down position.  
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.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE  
To stop cycle:

press the “Cancel” button to interrupt. After use, unplug the toaster  
from the electrical outlet.  
1. Always unplug the toaster from the electrical outlet.  
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.  
Reheat Button  
The reheat feature allows you to reheat bread without browning  
or toasting.

crumbs. Wipe clean and replace. Never operate the toaster  
without the crumb tray in place.

is in the up position.

hard or sharp instruments into the slot, as this could damage  
the toaster and cause a safety hazard.

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

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.
