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.
To adjust the Griddler

®

 to this position, 

locate the hinge release lever on the  

right arm.  
With your left hand on the handle, use 

your right hand to slide the lever toward 

you. Push the handle back until the cover 

rests flat on the counter. The unit will stay 

in this position until you lift the handle and 

cover to return it to the closed position.
If the Griddler

®

 is already in the open 

position and you 

wish to adjust it 

to the flat 

position, pull the 

handle slightly 

toward you and then lift the hinge release

 to the flat position 

(see page 5) with the controls directly in 

front of you. Insert one plate at a time. 

Each plate is designed to fit in either the 

upper housing or the lower housing of the 

Griddler

®

If you are facing the Griddler

®

metal 

brackets at the center of the housing. Tilt 

the back end of the plate and line up the 

cutouts at the back of the plate with the 

metal brackets. Slide the plate 

underneath the brackets and push down 

the front end of the plate. It will snap into 

place. Turn the Griddler

®

 around and 

insert the second plate on either its grill or 

griddle side into the upper housing as you 

did with the first plate.

To remove cooking plates

on one side of 

the unit. Press 

firmly on 

button and the 

plate will pop 

up slightly 

from the base.

out from under the metal brackets, and lift 

it out of the base. Press on the other plate

cooking plate in the same manner.

for the drip 

tray. Slide 

the drip 

tray into 

the base 

according 

to the 

instruction 

on the tray. 
Grease from the food will run off the 

plates through the grease spout and into 

the drip tray. Grease should be safely 

disposed of after the Griddler

®

 has 

cooled down completely. The drip tray 

can be cleaned in the dishwasher.
