Extra Wide Slots
1.5-inch toaster slots allow for a wide variety of items to be toasted with the Cuisinart Compact Toaster. items such as sliced bread, french toast (thick & thin), bagels, frozen pancakes, and toaster pastries.
High Lift Lever
When your bread is finished toasting, the toaster carriage pops up. Sometimes the size of the bread may prevent the bread from popping clear out of the toaster. Cuisinart offers a HI Lift lever that allows the user to boost the lever upwards, thus lifting the bread clear out of the unit for easy removal from the toaster with your fingers.
Using the Defrost Setting
The defrost setting is designed to first defrost and then toast your bread, which extends the toasting cycle slightly. These recommended settings are as follows Settings 1-2: For refrigerated bread and thinner frozen items such as frozen pancakes, Settings 3-4: For toaster pastries, frozen waffles, and (thin) French toast, and refrigerated bagels and Settings 5-6: For thicker frozen items such as bagels, hand-cut bread, and thick French toast.
