Before using your Cuisinart® multifunction grill and griddle for
the fi rst time, clean the housing, lid and control knobs of the
appliance with a damp cloth. Wash the cooking plates, cooking
juice cups and cleaning tool in warm soapy water or in the
dishwasher. Read the section “Cleaning and Maintenance” for
more information.
INSERTING THE COOKING PLATES
• Grill plates: ideal for grilling steaks, hamburgers, chicken and
vegetables.
