BEFORE THE FIRST USE:

Remove all packaging materials and any
promotional labels or stickers from your grill.
Be sure all parts (listed under Parts and
Features) of your new appliance have been
included before discarding any packaging
materials. You may want to keep the box and
packing materials for use at a later date.
Before using your Cuisinart

wiping the base, cover and controls with a
damp cloth. Thoroughly clean cooking plates,
drip trays and scraping tool. The grill and
griddle plates, drip trays and scraping tool
are dishwasher safe. Refer to Assembly

THE GRIDDLER
DOES IT ALL:
The Griddler
offering you four separate cooking options.
Simply change the cooking plates and adjust the
hinge to use as a Contact Grill, Panini Press,
Open Grill or Griddle. See Assembly
Instructions and Operating Instructions.
Contact Grill:
Use the Griddler
burgers, boneless pieces of meat and thin cuts
of meat and vegetables.
The Contact Grill function works best when you
want to cook something in a short amount of
time or when you are looking for a healthy
method of grilling. When cooked on the Contact
Grill, food will cook quickly because you are
7
grilling both sides of the food item at the same
time. The ribs on the grill plates combined with
2
the grease spout at the corner of the plate allow
8
the grease to drip from the meat and drain off
the plates.
When the Griddler
the grill plates are recommended. Rest the cover
7
evenly on top of the food until it has reached the
desired cooked temperature.
