Sunbeam’s Safety Precautions
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR YOUR
SUNBEAM CONTACT HEALTH 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.
• Ensure that the cord is kept well away from
the cooking plates during use.
• Ensure the drip tray is in position before
grilling.
Sunbeam are 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.
• Close supervision is necessary when your
appliance is being used near children or
infirm persons.
• Never leave an appliance unattended while
in use.
• Young children should be supervised to ensure
that they do not play with the appliance.
• Do not touch the outside or the top of the grill
when in use.
• Ensure you use the handle to open the grill
plate. Avoid touching hot surfaces.
• This grill may generate steam from between
the grill plates while cooking and when the top
plate is opened.
• Take care when removing food from the grill.
• Do not use an appliance for any purpose
other than its intended use.
• Do not place an appliance on or near a hot gas
flame, electric element or on a heated oven.
Do not place on top of any other appliance.
• Do not let the power cord of an appliance hang
over the edge of a table or bench top or touch
any hot surface.
• For safety reasons and to avoid maintenance
by unskilled persons, some appliances are
‘sealed’ using tamperproof screws. Such
appliances should always be returned to the
nearest Sunbeam Appointed Service Centre
for adjustment or repair if required.
• Do not operate any electrical appliance with a
damaged cord or after the appliance has been
dropped or damaged in any manner. If damage
is suspected, return the appliance to the
nearest Sunbeam Appointed Service Centre
for examination, repair or adjustment.
• For additional protection, Sunbeam
recommend the use of a residual current
device (RCD) with a tripping current not
exceeding 30mA in the electrical circuit
supplying power to your appliances.
• Do not immerse the appliance in water
or any other liquid unless recommended.
If you have any concerns regarding the performance and use of your appliance,
please visit www.sunbeam.com.au or contact the Sunbeam Consumer Service Line.

DuPont Teflon® - Platinum Pro with
ScratchGuard™ Non-Stick Coating
Your Sunbeam Contact Health Grill features
DuPont’s® toughest non-stick coating
produced to date - Platinum Pro with
ScratchGuard.
DuPont is the world leader in non-stick
coatings with the introduction of Teflon
dating back to 1938. Today more than 2
billion households have Teflon non-stick
coated cookware.
Teflon Platinum Pro is a premium 3 layer
non-stick coating. It features special scratch
resistant minerals causing metal utensils to
slide over these particles without damaging
the Teflon matrix.
This preserves the release properties of
the non-stick coating during the life of the
Contact Health Grill.
4
Results from DuPont’s ‘In-house Cooking Abuse Test’
The end result is a non-stick coating that
can be treated like ordinary cookware,
enabling the use of metal utensils
such as spatulas and spoons, but
not sharp utensils. So tough
is the new Teflon Platinum
Pro coating that it is up to 10
times more scratch resistant
than other non-stick coatings*.
The image show here is an
example of the performance of
Teflon Platinum Pro against an
'other' non-stick coating. Each
surface has undergone 5 cycles of
the DuPont In-House Abuse Test.
The Teflon Platinum Pro only has some
surface scuffing, whereas the 'other' nonstick coating has deteriorated badly.
* The images shown here and performance
claims are based upon the DuPont In-House
Cooking Abuse Test used to evaluate scratch
resistance and release properties of non-stick
coatings.
**NOTE: The DuPont Teflon® Platinum Pro with
ScratchGuard™ is only available on certain
models.

Using your Contact Health Grill
Before using your Contact Health Grill
Before using your Contact Health Grill for the
first time, the non-stick cooking plates must
be seasoned. Turn the power ON and pre-heat
until the Ready Light illuminates.
Wipe a small amount of butter, margarine or
oil onto the plates, rub lightly and wipe away
any excess.
Note: When using your Contact Health Grill
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.
Using your Contact Health Grill
1. Plug the power cord into a 230-240 volt
AC power outlet.
2. Turn the power ON.
3. Select your desired temperature setting
to suit the type of food you wish to cook.
Turn the temperature dial to Medium or
Grill.
4. Preheat until the Ready Light (green)
illuminates.
5. After you have completed grilling or
toasting, turn the power OFF.
Note: Ensure that the cord is kept well away
from the cooking plates when in use.
1. Always spray the grill plates with cooking
spray before placing meat, seafood or
vegetables onto the grill plate.
2. Gently lower the lid (if desired) to ensure
even cooking of your food everytime.
3. When cooking some foods you may want
to re-spray the grill plates to prevent food
from sticking.
4. The cooking plates are coated in a durable
high grade non-stick coating. Some foods
that are marinated or coated may cause
the food to stick to the grill plates.
To free the food use a plastic spatula or
wooden spoon. Never use a sharp metal
object as this will damage the non-stick
surface.
Note: The Warm Up and Ready Lights are
thermostatically controlled and will cycle on
and off during the cooking cycle to ensure
that the correct temperature is maintained.
Caution: Do not touch the outside or the top
of the unit, when in use. Ensure you use
the handle to open the top grill plate. Avoid
touching hot surfaces. This Contact Health
Grill may generate steam from between the
grill plates while food is cooking and when
the top plate is opened. Take care when
removing food from the grill.
Grilling Meats and Vegetables
Note: Always turn your temperature dial
to Grill and pre-heat for 3-5 minutes. The
Ready Light will illuminate.

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 = Sirloin, Rump, Rib Eye
Fillet or T-Bone
Lamb = Leg Steak, Fillet, Loin or Cutlets
Pork = Butterfly Steaks, Spare Ribs,
Leg Steaks or Fillets
4. You can also grill diced meat on skewers
for kebabs.
5. The Contact Health Grill can grill meats
over 1 inch (2.5cm) thick with ease.
If cooking meats with a bone it is
recommended that it is no larger than
(1.5cm) thick to ensure even cooking.
6. Ideal for cooking a variety of meats,
including beef, fish and poultry. Take care
when grilling fish, use a plastic spatula.
7. The sloped grilling surface allows the fats
and juices to drain into the drip tray for
healthy, fat free cooking.
8. When cutting meats, chicken, vegetables
and or seafood for kebabs, cut evenly and
uniform in size to ensure even cooking.
Never cross - contaminate foods. Do not
cut raw vegetables and raw meats with
the same knife or on the same chopping
board. Try to use seperate chopping
boards for meats, vegetables and seafood.
Do not cut cooked meats on the same
chopping board as you prepared the raw
meat unless the board and knife have
been thoroughly sanitised and cleaned in
hot soapy water.

Care and Cleaning
DuPont Teflon® Platinum Pro Non-stick Coating
Your Contact Health Grill features a special
scratch and abrasive-resistant non-stick
coating that makes it safe to use metal
utensils when cooking.
Sunbeam recommends that care is taken with
the non-stick coating particularly when using
metal utensils.
Always turn the power OFF and REMOVE the
plug from the power point before cleaning.
Do not use sharp objects or cut food on top of
the Contact Health Grill. Sunbeam will not be
liable for damage to the non-stick coating
where metal utensils have been misused.
When cleaning the non-stick coating do not
use metal (or other abrasive) scourers. After
cleaning, dry the Contact Health Grill and lid
thoroughly with a soft cloth before storing.
Quick cleaning method
Always turn the power OFF and remove plug
after use and before cleaning. The cooking
plates are coated with a non-stick surface,
and there are no dirt traps, therefore little
cleaning is required. Once cooled, simply
wipe the cooking plates with a dampened
cloth.
Do not immerse your Contact Health Grill in
water or any other liquid. Do not use abrasive
scouring pads or powders.
Do not place your Contact Health Grill in a
dishwasher.
To clean the exterior
Simply wipe over with a dampened cloth. Do
not use steel wool, scouring pads or abrasive
cleaners as these will scratch the surface.
Storage
Your Contact Health Grill will store in an
upright position in cupboards, shelves or
on the bench top. Simply bring the plates
together and use the self locking clips to lock
the unit.
Always allow the grill to cool after use. Once
cooled, you can clean the cooking plates.
Always allow the contents of the drip tray
to cool before removing the tray from it’s
position and discarding the contents.
Wash the drip tray in warm soapy water.
Always clean after each use to prevent a build
up of cooking residue on the grill.
Do not immerse your Contact Health Grill in
water or any other liquid.
