INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE  
- cord wraps under unit for easy storage  
1. Before using your CuisinartSandwich Grill for the  
first time, remove all protective paper and wrapping.  
Remove any dust from shipping by wiping the plates  
with a damp cloth.  
Note: The cooking plates of this Cuisinart™  
Sandwich Grill have been treated with  
a special nonstick coating. Before the  
first use, we suggest you season the  
grids 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  
SandwichGrill.  
2. Preheat the Sandwich Grill. Close lid and plug cord  
into a 120V AC 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 heat-proof 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.

TIPS AND HINTS FOR USING  
YOUR CUISINART™  
Unplug the Sandwich Grill and allow unit to cool  
completely with lid open before cleaning. When cool,  
brush excess crumbs from Sandwich Grill with a soft  
pastry brush, then gently wipe clean with a dampened  
soft cloth such as one made of microfiber. (Available in  
most housewares/gourmet stores).  
SANDWICH GRILL:  
Preheat CuisinartSandwich Grill completely before  
using. For “quick to assemble” sandwiches and pastries,  
preheat the Sandwich Grill while preparing the food to  
be grilled.  
Close the lid of the Sandwich Grill while preheating.  
When preparing more than one batch of sandwiches,  
keep lid closed to maintain even heat.  
RECIPES  
FRENCH TOAST  
You may use a variety of breads in the Cuisinart™  
Sandwich Grill with excellent results. Breads that are  
a “standard” thickness (approximately 1/2-inch [1.25 cm])  
are best for sandwiches, while thicker sliced breads  
(approximately 5/8 to 1-inch [1.30 to 2.50 cm]) are  
recommended for French toast.  
Makes 4 slices (two servings).  
Bread suggestions: thick sliced breads (about 3/4-inch  
[2 cm]) such as challah, English muffin bread, cinnamon  
swirl bread, raisin bread  
2
large eggs, lightly beaten  
For best results, we recommend that the bread be as  
close as possible to the size of the sandwich plate  
1/2  
1/2  
4
cup (125 ml) reduced fat milk  
(5 x 41⁄  
inches [11.25 x 12 cm]). Breads may be trimmed  
2
teaspoon (2 ml) vanilla extract (optional)  
thick, 3/4 to 1-inch (2 to 2.5 cm), slices of bread  
Cooking spray or melted unsalted butter  
prior to cooking to fit as needed. Bread selections may  
be hand sliced from whole loaves.  
Butter, margarine, and olive oil are recommended for  
coating the outside of bread when making sandwiches.  
“Light” versions of margarines are not recommended as  
they do not withstand heat (check manufacturer’s labels  
for cooking recommendations for best results).  
Place the eggs, milk and optional vanilla extract in a  
small bowl. Using a whisk, beat until smooth. Place the  
bread slices in a 9 x 9-inch (23 x 23 cm) baking dish.  
Pour the egg mixture into the pan. Turn the bread slices  
to coat completely and let stand until the liquid is  
completely absorbed, about 5 minutes. Preheat the  
CuisinartSandwich Grill. When the Sandwich Grill is  
hot (green indicator light will be on), spray lightly with  
cooking spray or brush with a small amount of melted  
butter. Place two of the bread slices on the sandwich  
grids and use firm pressure to close lid and lock. French  
Toast will be ready when red indicator light goes off and  
green indicator light comes on. Serve hot with butter or  
margarine and syrup or preserves, or sprinkle with  
powdered sugar.  
Have butter or margarine at room temperature when  
spreading on bread, or melt and apply with a pastry  
brush.  
For best results, moist ingredients such as sliced  
tomatoes or fruits, pickles, etc., should be blotted or  
patted dry with a paper towel. Sauces, such as tomato  
sauce or salsa, can be drained for a short time in a  
strainer lined with a coffee filter to remove excess liquid.  
Use well-drained leftover cooked vegetables or thawed,  
well-drained frozen vegetables as additions to your  
sandwiches and omelettes.

Firm textured breads will yield a crispier sandwich than  
breads with a softer texture.  
Use a heatproof rubber spatula or wooden utensil to lift  
sandwich/pastry/omelette from the CuisinartSandwich  
Grill. Avoid using metal utensils, which may mar the  
nonstick coating of the Sandwich Grill.  
For best results, allow hot sandwiches to rest for 2-3  
minutes before cutting and serving. The fillings will be

SUGGESTED SANDWICHES:  
Sandwich fillings can be as limitless as your personal taste and imagination. You may create your own versions of  
traditional favourites (childhood or diner comfort foods) or combine favourite ingredients to make your own “classics”.  
To assemble sandwiches, lightly coat one side of each slice of bread (or the outside of a roll, pita loaf or English muffin)  
with butter, margarine or olive oil. Lay 2 slices of bread, coated side down on work surface. Assemble sandwiches in  
layers and top with remaining bread, coated side up. Place on preheated Sandwich Grill. Use firm pressure to close lid;  
lock and cook. Green indicator light will go off and red light will come on (this may not happen immediately). When  
green indicator light comes on again, sandwich is cooked.  
Add 15-30 seconds additional cooking time if a toastier sandwich is preferred. Remove sandwiches using a heatproof  
plastic spatula. Let sandwiches rest for 2-3 minutes, then cut and serve.  
You may even make a French toast batter (without vanilla) and dip the sandwiches in it before grilling to make “croque  
monsieurs.”

to overfill the omelettes or the egg may run out before  
it is cooked.

dessert that can be served plain or topped with ice  
cream while still warm. Fruit tarts are also a nice  
alternative to packaged toaster pastries for breakfast.

of each bread slice with butter.Top the unbuttered side  
of two slices with half the pie filling each. Cover with  
remaining bread slices, buttered side up. When green  
indicator light is on, place the sandwich/tarts on the  
grids and use firm pressure to close and lock the  
Sandwich Grill. Cook until the green indicator light  
comes on again. Remove “tarts” and let cool for about  
5 minutes before cutting and serving. (Filling will be  
very hot.) Serve plain, dusted with powdered sugar, or  
with a favourite ice cream or frozen yogurt.  
melted butter or cooking spray  
Place the eggs and baking powder in a small bowl. Use  
a whisk to beat until just frothy; add salt and pepper to  
taste. When green indicator light comes on, open  
Sandwich Grill and lightly coat with melted butter or  
cooking spray. Divide the vegetables evenly among the  
four quarters of the sandwich grid; sprinkle evenly with  
the shredded cheese. Pour the egg mixture evenly over  
the vegetables and cheese. Close the lid and lock.  
The red light will come on (it may stay green for a few  
seconds). Cook until the green indicator light comes on  
again, about 4 – 4 1⁄2 minutes. Open Sandwich Grill  
and remove omelettes using a heatproof plastic  
spatula. Serve immediately.

CLEANING AND  
MAINTENANCE  
WARRANTY  
Limited Three Year Warranty  
Once you have finished cooking in the Sandwich Grill,

soften for easy removal.

verification of the date of original purchase. However,  
return of the card is not a condition of this warranty.
