WARRANTY
LIMITED THREE-YEAR
WARRANTY
To facilitate the speed and accuracy of your return,
please enclose $10.00 for shipping and handling
of the product.
This warranty is available to consumers only. You
are a consumer if you own a Cuisinart® Griddler®
Deluxe that was purchased at retail for personal,
family or household use. Except as otherwise
required under applicable law, this warranty is
not available to retailers or other commercial
purchasers or owners.
We warrant that your Cuisinart® Griddler®
Deluxe will be free of defects in materials and
workmanship under normal home use for 3 years
from the date of original purchase.
Please pay by check or money order (California
residents need only supply proof of purchase and
should call 1-800-726-0190 for shipping instruc-
tions).
NOTE: For added protection and secure handling
of any Cuisinart product that is being returned, we
recommend you use a traceable, insured delivery
service. Cuisinart cannot be held responsible for
in-transit damage or for packages that are not
delivered to us. Lost and/or damaged products are
not covered under warranty.
We recommend that you visit our website,
www.cuisinart.com for a fast, efficient way to
complete your product registration. However,
product registration does not eliminate the need
for the consumer to maintain the original proof
of purchase in order to obtain the warranty
benefits. In the event that you do not have proof of
purchase date, the purchase date for purposes of
this warranty will be the date of manufacture.
Please be sure to include your return address,
daytime phone number, description of the product
defect, product model # (located on bottom of
product), original date of purchase, and any other
information pertinent to the product’s return.
Your Cuisinart® Griddler® Deluxe has been manu-
factured to the strictest specifications and has
been designed for use only in 120 volt outlets and
only with authorized accessories and replace-
ment parts. This warranty expressly excludes any
defects or damages caused by attempted use
of this unit with a converter, as well as use with
accessories, replacement parts or repair service
other than those authorized by Cuisinart. This
warranty does not cover any damage caused by
accident, misuse, shipment or other than ordinary
household use. This warranty excludes all inciden-
tal or consequential damages. Some states do not
allow the exclusion or limitation of these damages,
so these exclusions may not apply to you. You
may also have other rights, which vary from state
to state.
CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS ONLY
California law provides that for In-Warranty
Service, California residents have the option of
returning a nonconforming product (A) to the store
where it was purchased or (B) to another retail
store that sells Cuisinart products of the same
type.
The retail store shall then, at its discretion, either
repair the product, refer the consumer to an
independent repair facility, replace the product,
or refund the purchase price less the amount
directly attributable to the consumer’s prior usage
of the product. If the above two options do not
result in the appropriate relief to the consumer,
the consumer may then take the product to an
independent repair facility if service or repair
can be economically accomplished. Cuisinart
and not the consumer will be responsible for
the reasonable cost of such service, repair,
replacement, or refund for nonconforming
products under warranty.
Important: If the nonconforming product is to
be serviced by someone other than Cuisinart’s
Authorized Service Center, please remind the
servicer to call our Consumer Service Center at
1-800-726-0190 to ensure that the problem is
properly diagnosed, the product is serviced with
the correct parts, and to ensure that the product
is still under warranty.
California residents may also, according to their
preference, return nonconforming products directly
to Cuisinart for repair, or if necessary, replacement,
by calling our Consumer Service Center toll-free at
1-800-726-0190. Cuisinart will be responsible for
the cost of the repair, replacement, and shipping
and handling for such products under warranty.

to be defective within the warranty period, we will
repair it, or if we think necessary, replace it. To

sandwich Chart
A sandwich is a beautiful thing - simple and comforting. Add some heat to cheese and bread and create the
perfect lunch. Like any good meal, the perfect sandwich starts with the best ingredients that you can find.
Use a nice hearty bread, good oil or butter, and fresh, in-season ingredients. Don't stop there, for your
pantry probably has some great additions - roasted red peppers can add a lot of flavor to simple grilled
chicken. Mayonnaise and mustards can do wonders. Have leftover barbequed chicken from the grill last night?
Shred it and put it on bread. The options are endless. Place on the hot grill, press or top melt, and your
sandwich will be ready before you can finish setting the table. The extra-large cooking surface allows you to
make up to four sandwiches at a time.

The SEAR function grills steaks to perfection. Here is a simple guide to cooking to your personal preference.
We give instructions for grilling the steaks in the Closed position, but they can easily be done in the Open
position as well - just flip the steaks halfway through. Remember to always monitor the temperature of your
steaks to achieve desired doneness.
Preparation:
Season to taste. Drain off marinade completely if marinated before grilling. Bring to
room temperature for best results.

Steak Tips
• Allow steaks to sit at room temperature at least 15 minutes before grilling.
• Allow steaks to rest at 5 minutes after grilling so juices are able to redistribute before cutting.
Otherwise all of that delicious juice will be on your plate and not in your steak.
• For the larger 2-inch steaks grill all 4 surfaces for even cooking.

RECIPES
perfect pancakes
This is a great all-purpose pancake recipe to have up your sleeve for breakfast
next weekend. It can be dressed up by mixing in fresh or frozen fruit, or nuts
and chocolate chips.
Griddler® Deluxe Cooking Position: Flat
Plate Side: Griddle
Makes about twelve 4-inch pancakes
2
large eggs

½
1
cup reduced-fat milk
teaspoon pure vanilla extract
cup plus 2 tablespoons unbleached, all-purpose flour
tablespoon baking powder
1
1
tablespoon granulated sugar
½
2
teaspoon table salt
tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled (plus more for griddle plates if desired)
1. Fit the Griddler® Deluxe with the griddle plates and preheat both plates to 350°F.
2. Put the eggs, milk and vanilla in a small bowl and whisk to blend until smooth; reserve.
Combine flour, baking powder, sugar and salt in a medium bowl. Stir with a whisk to blend.
Add the egg/milk mixture and stir until just blended. Stir in the melted, cooled butter. Do
not over-mix, or pancakes will be thin and tough – batter should be a bit lumpy.
3. Using a ¼-cup measure, drop batter onto preheated griddle (if you like extra-buttery
pancakes, put about ½ tablespoon of butter on each plate and melt before dropping batter
on plates). Cook pancakes until bubbles form, about 2 to 3 minutes; flip and cook until
done, about 2 minutes longer.
4. Transfer to warm plates to serve. As you finish each batch of pancakes, you can keep them
warm on a wire rack placed on a baking sheet in a low oven (200°F). Repeat until all the
batter is used.

8 to 10 slices challah bread, ¾-inch thick (Depending on the size of the loaf, you will find
between 8 and 10 slices will soak up all of the batter. Should be about ¾ of a 1-pound
loaf.)
confectioners’ sugar for serving
fresh fruit for serving
1. Put the eggs, milk, vanilla, maple syrup, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt into a medium bowl.
Whisk to fully combine and pour into a 13 x 9-inch baking dish.
2. Soak half of the bread in the milk mixture, turning so both sides are saturated.
3. Fit the Griddler® Deluxe with the griddle plates and preheat both plates to 350°F. Once
preheated, put the soaked bread on the hot griddle.* Cook 3 to 5 minutes per side. If all
bread does not fit on the griddle plates at one time, soak remaining bread while first batch
of French toast is cooking.
4. Remove and reserve the cooked French toast in a warm oven and then repeat with
remaining soaked bread if necessary.
5. To serve, dust with confectioners’ sugar and top with fresh fruit and maple syrup, if desired.
*The French toast can also be cooked in the Closed griddle position. Preheat both plates to
350°F in the Closed position, put 2 to 4 pieces on the plate, depending on how many fit, and
close the Griddler. Cooking time will be only about 2 to 3 minutes and you do not need to flip!

2. In a medium to large bowl, mix the peppers, green onions, garlic, salt, egg, 1½ cups of the
panko, mayonnaise, Worcestershire, Dijon, Old Bay and hot sauce (if using). Add the
crabmeat and very gently mix all of the ingredients together (it is best to do this with clean
hands to avoid over-mixing, but you can do it with a spoon if you are careful to keep the
crabmeat intact).
3. Using your hands, shape the mixture into ¼-cup round cakes (no higher than ½-inch) and
put them on a clean plate, separating the layers with wax paper. Cover with plastic and
refrigerate for 1 hour before cooking (this helps keep the crab cakes together when cooking
and melds the flavors).
4. Fit the Griddler® Deluxe with the griddle plates and preheat both plates to 400°F. Brush the
plates with a little vegetable oil (this will help to crisp and lightly brown the crab cakes).
5. While the unit is preheating, lightly dredge the crab cakes in the remaining panko.
6. When the griddle is hot, cook the crab cakes in batches, approximately 8 minutes per side.
Crab cakes should be a deep golden brown on both sides.

1. Fit the Griddler® Deluxe with the grill plates and preheat both plates to 450˚F.
2. Working the ground chuck as little as possible, mix in a large bowl with the salt, pepper and
garlic powder. Shape into 6 patties, about 4 inches in diameter. The best way to do this is to
use a 4-inch round cookie cutter: Divide meat equally into six portions, put each into into
the cookie cutter and gently press to evenly fill. All burgers should be the same thickness
for optimal results. Use your thumb to press a dimple into the center of each patty.
3. When the unit has preheated, place the burgers on the lower grill plate, evenly spaced.
Using the cover height adjuster, close the upper plate so the hinge is set to the position
where the upper grill plate is just sitting on the burgers without pressing them.
4. Contact grill for 5 minutes for rare burgers (this will result in a medium-rare burger by the

1. In a small saucepan, combine the soy sauce, mirin, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, zest, juice,
sesame oil and scallion. Set over medium heat and bring to a boil. Allow to cook until
mixture is reduced by about half and the liquid has become thick and syrupy – this should
take around 20 minutes, depending on the stove being used. Set aside to cool slightly.
2. Fit the Griddler® Deluxe with the grill plates and preheat both plates to 400°F. While grill is
preheating, season the salmon with the salt and brush with oil on both sides of the fish.
3. Place the salmon on the lower grill plate, flesh side down. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes, until the
edges are cooked (interior of fish will only be cooked about halfway through at this point).
Flip the fish and then brush with some of the reserved glaze. Using the cover height
adjuster, carefully close the upper grill plate so the plate is just above the top of the fish, but
not touching it. Grill until cooked through, an additional 4 to 5 minutes (flesh will flake away
with a fork, but still be bright pink inside).
4. With about 1 minute remaining, open the grill and brush the top of the fish with more of
the glaze and then flip to cook an additional minute. Remove and serve immediately,
brushing with more glaze and sprinkling with the sesame seeds.
