SPECIAL CORD SET
INSTRUCTIONS
A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce
the risks resulting from becoming entangled in or
tripping over a longer cord.
Longer extension cords are available and may be
used if care is exercised in their use.
If a long extension cord is used, the marked electri-
cal rating of the extension cord should be at least
as great as the electrical rating of the appliance, and
the longer cord should be arranged so that it will not
drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can
be pulled on by children or animals, or tripped over
unintentionally.
NOTICE
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is
wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric
shock, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only
one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet,
reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a
qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the
plug in any way.

Note
:
The cooking plates of this Cuisinart
TM
Sandwich Grill have been treated with a
special nonstick coating. Before the first
use, we suggest you season the plates with
cooking spray or oil. If using oil, apply with
a paper towel or pastry brush. You may find
it helpful to repeat this process before each
use of the Sandwich
Grill.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
1.
Before using your Cuisinart
TM
Sandwich Grill for
the first time, remove all protective paper and
wrapping. Remove any dust from shipping by
wiping the plates with a damp cloth.
2.
To preheat the Sandwich Grill, close lid and
plug
cord into a wall outlet. The red light will
go on to signal power. The green indicator light
will go on when unit is ready to use.
Note:
The first time you use your Sandwich
Grill, it may have a slight odor and may smoke
a bit. This is normal, and common to
appliances with a nonstick surface.
3.
When the green indicator light goes on, place
ingredients on bottom plate according to
recipes provided. Close the lid and lock it.
4.
The green light will go off and the red light will
once again illuminate. It may take several
seconds for the red light to come on. This is
normal.
5.
Once the food is ready to eat, the green light
will come on again.*
6.
Remove food by gently loosening the edges
with a heatproof plastic spatula. Never use
metal utensils, as they may damage the
nonstick coating.
7.
Always disconnect the plug from the wall
outlet once cooking is completed.
