English Muffins & Thick Sliced
Breads.
Requires longer toasting time than regular
breads. We suggest that you increase the
darkness setting on the Browning Dial to
increase the toasting time.
Long Slices of Bread.
If your bread slice is so long that a toaster
slot can only accomodate a single slice,
we suggest that you set the Browning
Control to a lighter setting than you
normally would.
Frozen Breads.
The following breads and pastries should
be defrosted and warmed using the
Defrost Button:
Frozen Waffles, Pancakes, French Toast
and Bagels
Press the Defrost Button when defrosting
and toasting waffles, pancakes, French toast
and bagel halves. For best results use a few
toasting cycles at a low setting. A single longer
toasting time can result in waffles, pancakes or
French toast that are toasted on the outside
but cool or soggy on the inside.
Tips:
• Never force foods into the Toasting Slot.
Foods should fit freely between the guard
(guide) wires.
• Do not place buttered breads or frosted
pastries in the toaster, as it could create a fire
hazard.
• Uneven toasting is usually due to bread
slices of uneven thickness.
• Never insert hard objects into the toasting
slot.
• After use, unplug your toaster from the
electrical outlet.
Two-Slice Toasting:
Most 4-slice toasters generate so much heat
that when 2 slices are toasted the bread can be
overtoasted. For two slices of regular size
bread, follow these steps:
1. Set the Slice Control Switch to the
1-Slice/2-Slice position . This will reduce
the amount of heat generated and give better
toasting results.
2. Put both slices of bread in the front toaster
slot. This is the slot on the side of the toaster
with the Cuisinart name on it. Putting the
Slice Control Switch in the 1-Slice/2-Slice
position turns OFF the back chamber.
3. Start the toaster as you normally would
(Push down the carriage control lever).
Single Slice Toasting:
A single slice of toast requires less toasting
time than two slices of bread. Each chamber
is designed for 2 slices of regular size bread.
Lower the toast time for a single slice by
turning the Browning Dial to a lighter
setting. This will prevent overtoasting
the bread slice. For one slice of regular
sized bread, follow these steps:
1. Set the Slice Control Switch to the
1-Slice/2-Slice position . This will turn
off the back chamber to reduce the amount
of heat generated, and give better toasting
results.
2. Put the slice of bread in the front toaster
slot. This is on the side of the toaster with the
Cuisinart name on it. It is also marked with
arrows
▼
which point to the front slot.
3. Set the Browning Control to a lighter
setting than you normally would for 2 slices.
4. Start the toaster as you normally would
(Push down the carriage control lever).
CUSTOM SETTINGS
Defrost Button
The Defrost Button is designed to first
defrost and then toast the bread, by
extending the toasting cycle slightly.
1. Insert slice(s) of bread:
Be sure that multiple slices do not overlap
and the carriage is in the up position.
2. Set the Browning Control:
Select desired browning level from light
to dark with rotary browning dial.
3. Set the Slice Control Switch to
the 1 Slice/2 Slice or 3 Slice/4
Slice position, as needed.
4. Press the Carriage Control
Lever down until it locks into
position.
5. Press the Defrost Button.
The LED will illuminate when this feature
is selected.
To stop cycle:
When the Defrost and Toast 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 at
any time. To remove toast, lift the Extra-Lift
Carriage Control until it reaches its highest
point. This is especially useful when toasting
smaller breads.
