or place any part of the toaster oven broiler in water or other liquids. See
instructions for cleaning on page 9.
5. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or
near children.
6. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after
the appliance has malfunctioned or has been dropped or damaged
in any way or is not operating properly. Return the toaster oven
broiler to the nearest Cuisinart Repair Center for examination,
repair or mechanical or electrical adjustment.
7. The use of accessory attachments not recommended by Cuisinart
may cause injury.
8. Do not use outdoors.
9. Do not let cord hang over the edge of the table or countertop where
it could be pulled on inadvertently by children or pets, or touch hot
surfaces, which could damage the cord.
10. Do not place toaster oven broiler on or near a hot gas or electric burner
or in a heated oven.
11. Do not use this toaster oven broiler for anything other than its
intended purpose.
12. Extreme caution should be exercised when using containers constructed
of materials other than metal or glass in the toaster oven broiler.
13. To avoid burns, use extreme caution when removing tray or disposing
of hot grease.
14. When not in use, always unplug the unit. Do not store any materials
other than manufacturer’s recommended accessories in this oven.
15. Do not place any of the following materials in the oven: paper,
cardboard, plastic and similar products.
16. Do not cover crumb tray or any part of the oven except the baking pan

OVEN RACK POSITION GUIDE
All of our recipes give you
step-by-step directions
and will tell you where
the oven rack should be
positioned for best results.
Please refer to the diagram for
oven rack positions. Each
position is referred
to in the recipe.
WARNING: Placing the rack
in the Lower rack position
while toasting may result in a
fire. Toast only in the Upper
rack position.
Lower
Middle
Upper
BEFORE THE FIRST USE
Place your oven on a flat surface. Remove any packaging and promotional
labels in or on the oven. Unwind the power cord. Check that the crumb tray
is in place and check that there is nothing inside or on top of the oven. Plug
power cord into wall outlet.
Before using your oven, make sure it is two to four inches away from the
wall or from any objects on the countertop. Do not use on heat-sensitive
surfaces. DO NOT STORE OBJECTS ON THE TOP OF THE OVEN.
IF YOU DO, REMOVE ALL OBJECTS BEFORE YOU TURN ON YOUR
OVEN. THE EXTERIOR WALLS GET VERY HOT WHEN IN USE. KEEP
OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
GENERAL GUIDELINES
Toast/Bagel: Always have the rack in Upper rack position, as indicated in
the diagram at left, for even toasting. Always center your item/items in
the middle of the rack.
Bake: Baking function can be used as you would normally use your
large kitchen oven for roasting meats including chicken, or baking cakes,
cookies and more.
Broil: Broiling function can be used for beef, chicken, pork, fish and more.
It also can be used to brown the tops of casseroles and gratins.
Caution:
Aluminum foil is not recommended for covering the drip pan. Foil is
extremely dangerous when broiling fatty foods. Grease will accumulate
and may catch fire. If foil is used to cover drip pan, be sure foil is tucked
neatly around the pan and does not touch the walls or heating rods.
Never cover the crumb tray.
Convection: You may turn on the convection fan by pressing the Conv
button with Bake or Broil. A fan circulates the heat so food will cook faster
and more evenly. This is best used for breads, cakes or other baked goods.
Reheat: Perfect setting for reheating food that has already been cooked.
Keep Warm: Maintains the oven at a low temperature using only the bottom
heating elements to keep foods warm without drying out.
5
Turning off the toaster oven broiler: Any cooking cycle can be stopped by
pressing the Start/Stop button at any time. This will stop the heating cycle.
Dormant Mode: The oven will go dormant when cooking cycle is
completed. When dormant, the oven has power but is not lit up. Opening
the door, pushing any button or turning the Selector dial will activate the
dormant oven.
Deactivating Oven Sounds: You have the option of turning off the
electronic beeping sounds. To deactivate all beeps, push the Shade and
Defrost buttons simultaneously for 2 seconds. To reinstate all beeps, repeat
by pushing both the Timer and Shade buttons simultaneously for 2 seconds.
If you unplug the oven, all beeps will turn back on.
OPERATION
TOAST
To toast, make sure the oven rack is in Upper rack position, as indicated in
the diagram on page 5. If toasting two items, center them in the middle of the

your shade selection simply by pressing the Shade button and turning the dial
to adjust the shade setting. The new setting will automatically hold since the
oven has already been started. You should not press Start/Stop again, as that
would cancel the Toast cycle.
Stop Toasting
When the toasting cycle is finished, the oven will beep and turn off.
If you wish to stop the toasting cycle before it is finished, simply press the
Start/Stop button, as that will cancel the Toast cycle.
BAGEL
For best bagel results, place your bagels on the oven rack with the cut side
facing up. Make sure the oven rack is in the Upper rack position, as indicated
in the diagram on page 5. If toasting two bagel halves, center them in the
middle of the rack. Four bagel halves should be evenly spaced with two in
front, two in back. To begin toasting your bagel, close the door and turn
Selector dial to Bagel. The Shade and Start/Stop buttons will begin to flash.
Shade Selection
Press Shade button and then turn dial to desired shade setting as indicated

Toasting is a combination of drying and cooking the bread. Therefore,
differences in denseness and moisture level from one bread to another can
result in varying toasting times.
For slightly dry bread or thinly sliced bread, use a lighter setting than you
normally would, as it will toast more quickly.
6
For very fresh bread, thickly sliced bread or whole wheat bread, use a darker
setting than normal. Dense, moist bread may also require a darker setting.
Breads with very uneven surfaces (such as English muffins) will require a
darker toast setting.
Thickly cut pieces of bread will take longer, since more moisture must be
evaporated from the bread before toasting occurs. Very thick pieces may
require two cycles.
When toasting raisin or other fruit breads and muffins, remove any loose
fruit, etc. from the surface of the bread before placing into the oven. This will
help prevent pieces from falling and baking onto the crumb tray.
To prevent overtoasting of a single slice, set browning control to a lighter
setting than you normally would.
The Bagel feature adds the appropriate amount of extra time to the toasting
cycle to toast your bagels at the color level selected with the touchpad shade
control. The Bagel function is designed for the standard bagel size (3 ounces).
For deli-size bagels (3–6 ounces) you may need to increase the darkness
setting. The Bagel function can also be used to toast English muffins, thicksliced breads, and thick-sliced specialty Italian or Portuguese breads, which
require longer toasting times than an average slice of white bread.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Always allow the oven to cool completely before cleaning.
1. Always unplug the oven from the electrical outlet.
2. Do not use abrasive cleansers, as they will damage the finish. Simply
wipe the exterior with a clean damp cloth and dry thoroughly. Apply the
cleansing agent to a cloth, not to the toaster oven, before cleaning.
3. To clean interior walls, use a damp cloth and a mild liquid soap solution
or a spray solution on a sponge. Never use harsh abrasives or corrosive
products. These could damage the oven surface. Never use Brillo pads,
etc. on interior of oven.
4. To remove crumbs, slide out the crumb tray and discard crumbs.
Wipe clean and replace. To remove baked-on grease, soak the tray in
hot sudsy water with nonabrasive cleaners. Never operate the oven
without the crumb tray in place.
5. Wire rack, baking pan and crumb tray should be hand-washed in hot
sudsy water or use a nylon scouring pad or nylon brush.
6. Never wrap the cord around the outside of the oven. Use the cord
storage cleats on the back of the oven.
7. Any other servicing should be performed by an authorized service
representative.
IMPORTANT: After cooking greasy foods and after your oven has cooled,
always clean top interior of oven. If this is done on a regular basis, your oven
will perform like new and help to keep toasting consistent, cycle after cycle.
