Sunbeam’s Safety Precautions

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR YOUR

SUNBEAM HEALTH CONVECTION OVEN.

surfaces during and after use, as they will
be hot.

Sunbeam is very safety conscious when

designing and manufacturing consumer products,
but it is essential that the product user also exercise
care when using an electrical appliance. Listed
below are precautions which are essential for the
safe use of an electrical appliance:

• Read carefully and save all the instructions
provided with an appliance.

• Always turn the power off at the power outlet
before you insert or remove a plug. Remove
by grasping the plug - do not pull on the cord.

• Turn the power off and remove the plug when the
appliance is not in use and before cleaning.

• Do not use your appliance with an extension cord
unless this cord has been checked and tested by
a qualified technician or service person.

• Always use your appliance from a power outlet of
the voltage (A.C. only) marked on the appliance.

• This appliance is not intended for use by persons
(including children) with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of
experience and knowledge, unless they have been
given supervision or instruction concerning use
of the appliance by a person responsible for their
safety.

• Children should be supervised to ensure that they
do not play with the appliance.

Features of your Sunbeam
CO3000 NutriOven

Temperature Control

Variable temperature control allows you to
select the perfect temperature for each
cooking task.

Lid

The lid contains the heating element and the
fan so it will become extremely hot during
use. Always remove lid using the handle and
always place the hot lid correctly on the lid
stand. Never place the hot lid on the
benchtop.

Glass Bowl

Glass bowl is dishwasher safe. Easily
removable from the base stand.

Base Stand

The glass bowl and the lid can become
extremely hot during use. Always move the
oven using the base stand handles. Keep
hands and fingers from touching the hot
glass bowl during carrying.

2

Power and Warm Up Lights

The Power light indicates when the oven is
turned on. Note that if the Power Safety
Handle is raised the Power will not be on.
The Warm Up light Indicates when the oven
is heating up.

Power Safety Handle

When the handle is in the down position, the
oven is ready for use. When the handle is
raised, the fan and the motor switch off
automatically for safety. Always lift the lid by
the safety handle.

Timer Control

60 minute safety timer switch. If longer
cooking time is needed, the timer will need
to be reset during cooking.

Element

Powerful 1200 watt element for fast heat up.

Non-slip rubber feet

Keeps the oven secure on the bench top
during use and prevents scratching of bench
top surfaces.

High Rack

The high or the low rack should always be
used, even if used with another accessory.
Can be used by itself or with the low rack
for dual level cooking. Food cooked on the
high rack cooks the fastest. Suitable for
Grilling, Toasting and Dry Frying.

Low Rack

The high or the low rack should always be
used, even if used with another accessory.
Food should not be placed directly on the
bottom of the oven. The low rack allows
air to circulate under the food, which is
essential for efficient convection cooking,
and also allows the food to sit above the fats
and juices which accumulate at the bottom
of the bowl. Suitable for Roasting, Steaming
and Baking.

Multi-Purpose Baking Dish

Can be used to bake and dry fry small items
such as scones, vegetables and chips.

Oven Tongs

Use the oven tongs to lift racks and pans
into and out of the oven. It’s best to place
food on the racks and pans outside of the
oven, then use the oven tongs to lift into
the oven for cooking. The oven
tongs are not to be
used to lift food.

Tongs in use

Lid Holder

The lid contains the element and the fan
so it is very hot. Never place the lid directly
onto any benchtop or other surface. Always
place the lid into the lid holder as per the
photograph. Ensure the electrical cord is
facing down towards the bench top. Do not
use the electrical cord to lift the lid.

5

Using your NutriOven

Position the oven on a dry, level surface
ensuring the ventilation slots on the lid are
not obstructed. Plug the power cord into
a 230-240 volt power outlet and turn the
power on.

Preheat to 250°C. This compensates for the
heat lost when removing the lid and placing
food in the oven. Outside the oven, arrange
food on the appropriate racks and/or pans.

Remove the lid. Using the oven tongs lower
the racks and/or pans into the oven. Set the
temperature and the timer as required.

Helpful Tips

• Overloading the oven will slow down the
cooking process.

• Food will take slightly longer to cook if the
oven is in a very cold environment

• Placing vegetables in a bowl and covering
with boiling water for 5 minutes will assist
the cooking process.

• Always pre-heat oven to 250°C – this
compensates for the heat lost while
removing lid and placing food in the oven.

• Work quickly to minimise heat loss. Before
removing the lid, ensure you are prepared
and have everything you need close by

• Where possible, place food directly onto
the wire racks to allow air to circulate
freely.

When cooking has completed, turn off the
temperature and the timer. Remove the lid
and place in the lid holder. As the lid will
still be hot, move to an area that is away
from your food preparation and plating up
area. Use the oven tongs to remove the racks
and pans from the oven.

Similar to a built-in oven in your kitchen,
you will need to become familiar with your
NutriOven and adjust cooking times and
temperatures according to your requirement.

• Where possible, arrange food on the racks
outside the oven before removing the lid.

• Always use the oven tongs provided to add
or remove wire racks, baking dish, trays etc

• Be aware that when the timer finishes, the
oven will turn off. If you are cooking food
for longer than 1 hour, we recommend that
you keep an eye on the timer and increase
the timer during cooking.

• It is important to cook mince meat,
sausages and poultry until well done. No
pink should be visible and juices should
run clear.

• Silicone bakeware is not suitable to use in
the NutriOven.

• Oven bags are not suitable to use in the
NutriOven.
