Assembly Instructions - Cuisinart GR-4BKKR Instruction Booklet

The Full Grill also accommodates different cuts
of meat with varying thicknesses, allowing you
to cook each piece to your liking.
Full Griddle
Use the Griddler as a Full Griddle to cook
pancakes, eggs, French toast, hash browns
and breakfast meats.
When you use the Griddler as a Full Griddle,
open the cover so it lies flat, creating a double,
flat cooking surface. In this position, the foods
you are preparing will have to be turned over
for cooking. When using this cooking function,
the griddle side of the plates should be used.
Cooking on the Full Griddle is a wonderful way
to prepare breakfast
for two or for a large
family. The large
surface area allows
you to cook a
variety of different
foods at the same
time, or large amounts of your favorite food.
Half Grill/Half Griddle
Use the Griddler as a Half Grill/Half Griddle in
order to create full meals like bacon and eggs
or steak and potatoes at the same time.
When using the Griddler as a Half Grill/Half
Griddle, simply place the unit in the flat position
and insert one plate with the grill side facing
up, and another plate with the griddle side
facing up. This cooking option allows you to
use either the grill/panini temperature or the
griddle temperature selector.
ASSEMBLY
INSTRUCTIONS
Place Griddler on a clean flat surface where
you intend to cook. The Griddler can be
positioned in three ways:
Closed Position – Upper plate/cover rests flat
on lower plate/base.
This is your starting
and heating position
when using the
Contact Grill or Panini
Press functions.
Open Position – Upper plate/cover is open and
in the 100° position. Open the cover to this
position before using the Griddler as a Contact
Grill or Panini Press.
To adjust the Griddler
to this position, simply
lift the handle until you
feel it come to a
locking position. The
unit will stay in this
position until you
close the cover or
continue to open it to
the flat position.
The cover will stay in the upright position until
you lower the handle for cooking. When this is
done, the cover will release itself so that it lies
flat on the top of the food you are preparing.
This allows you to cook your food evenly from
both top and bottom. When you lift the handle
to open the Griddler after cooking, the cover
will remain in the flat position, parallel with the
lower plate. In order to lock the cover back into
the upright position, you must close the
Griddler, without any food in place, and open it
again.
Flat Position – Upper plate/cover is level with
lower plate/base. The upper and lower plates
line up to create
one large cooking
surface. The
Griddler is in this
position when it
is used as a Full
Grill, Full Griddle,
or Half Grill/Half Griddle.
