2. Open Grill or Griddle to Flat Position: This is when the upper and lower plates are
even with each other, lining up to create one large cooking surface. The 4-in-1
G
rill/Griddle stays in this position when used as an open grill or griddle. To place the
4-n-1 Grill/Griddle to this position, locate the hinge release lever on the right arm. Use
your right hand to slide the lever towards you to unlock position while firmly holding
the handle with your left hand. Push the handle back until the cover rests flat on the
counter. To reset the 4-in-1 Grill/Griddle into its closed position, lift the cover off the
table while sliding the hinge release lever to the unlock position and close the cover. If
the 4-in-1 Grill/Griddle is already in the open position and you wish to place it into the
flat position, lift the handle slightly while sliding the hinge release lever to the unlock
position. Push the handle back until the cover rests in the flat position.
NOTE: Moving the handle slightly while sliding the hinge release lever will help to
adjust the 4-in-1 Grill/Griddle cover.
3. Panini Press/Contact Grill - Open Position: When the upper plate/cover is open, food
can be added and removed. To set the 4-in-1 Grill/Griddle to this position, simply lift
the upper plate/cover by the handle until you feel it come to a locked position. The
cover will stay in the upright position until you lower the handle for cooking.
When the handle is lowered while the hinge release lever is in the unlocked position,
the upper cover will release and pivot to lie flat on top of the food. This allows you to
cook your food evenly from both top and bottom. When you lift the handle to open
the 4-in-1 Grill/Griddle after cooking, the cover will remain in the horizontal position,
parallel to the lower base. In order to lock the cover back into the upright position, you
must close the 4-in-1 Grill/Griddle completely (without any food in place).
