Sunbeam’s Safety Precautions • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR YOUR SUNBEAM CAFE GRANDÉ CONTACT GRILL Use well away from walls and curtains. Avoid using on metal surfaces e.g. sink. Do not use in confined spaces. Do not immerse the unit in water or any other liquid. Do not place appliance in a dishwasher. Ensure that the cord is kept well away from the cooking plates during use.
Features of your Café Grandé Contact Grill Power and Ready lights ‘Power’ light indicates when the unit is switched on and heating and the ‘Ready’ light indicates that it is ready to use. Sloping grilling surface The sloping grill plate drains fat away from the food whilst cooking, for a healthier meal. Detachable drip tray Easily detachable drip tray catches fats and juices preventing overflow onto bench tops. Ensure this tray is in position before grilling.
Non-stick grill plates The high grade non-stick cooking plates are ribbed for healthy cooking and to achieve authentic grill marks on your food. Searing meat on both sides at the same time allows for fast, healthy cooking. The non-stick plates make for easy wipe down cleaning, simply wipe down after use. Floating hinge system The floating hinge system adjusts to grill foods of varying thicknesses; from vegetables to thick steaks.
Using your Café Grandé Contact Grill Before first use Ensure any stickers and packaging are removed from the product. Wipe over plates with a dampened cloth and dry thoroughly with a soft cloth. Note: When using for the first time you may notice a fine smoke haze being emitted from the unit. This is normal. It is due to the initial heating of internal components. Grilling Meats and Vegetables Note: Always preheat for 3-5 minutes. The Ready light will illuminate. 1.
Hints for best results when grilling 1. Tender cuts of meat such as scotch fillet and sirloin are ideal for grilling. Tougher cuts of meat such as topside or blade steak will tenderise if marinated for a few hours or overnight. 2. Avoid overcooking meat as the texture will toughen. 3. Recommended cuts; Beef = S irloin, Rump, Rib Eye, Fillet or T-Bone Lamb = Leg Steak, Fillet, Loin or Cutlets Pork = B utterfly Steaks, Spare Ribs, Leg Steaks or Fillets 4.
Hints for best results when toasting snacks 1. Any type or shape of bread can be used, e.g. white, wholemeal, wholegrain, sourdough, bread rolls, bagels. 2. Various thicknesses of bread can be used from thick to thin slice. Turkish pide or foccacia are also suitable. 3. Sweet breads with a high sugar content (e.g. fruit loaf, raisin bread, brioche) will brown more quickly than non-sweetened breads. 6 4.
Care and Cleaning Non-stick Coating Your Café Grandé Contact Grill and Sandwich Press features a special scratch and abrasiveresistant non-stick coating. Storage Your Café Grandé will store in an upright position in cupboards, shelves or on the bench top. Sunbeam recommends that care is taken with the non-stick coating particularly when using metal utensils. Always allow the grill/press to cool after use. Once cooled, you can clean the cooking plates.
