Using your Sunbeam
Compact Café Grill
Before for 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 your Café 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 Café Press/Grill
1. Plug the power cord into a 230-240 volt
AC power outlet.
2. Turn the power ON and pre-heat your
Café Press/Grill until the Ready light
illuminates.
3. Once you have prepared your snack,
place the bread onto the cooking plate.
5. Allow your snack to toast for approximately
3 minutes, depending on the bread, filling
and personal taste. Your Café Grill toasts
both sides of bread at the same time.
6. The cooking plates are coated with a
durable non-stick coating. Some fillings
such as cheese may melt and cause the
sandwich to stick to the cooking plates.
To free the sandwich use a plastic spatula
or wooden spoon. Never use a sharp or
metal object, as this will damage the
non-stick surface.
Note: The 'warm up' and 'ready' lights are
thermostatically controlled and will cycle
during cooking to ensure that the correct
temperature is maintained.
7. After you have completed using your
Café Grill, turn the power OFF.
4. Gently lower the lid by pulling down the
handle. The café-style floating hinge
system will adjust automatically ensuring
that the top cooking plate lies evenly on
your snack, for perfect toasting every time.
Note: Ensure that the cord is kept well away
from the cooking plates when in use.

Hints for best results
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
focaccia 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.
4. It is not necessary to butter the outside of
your bread as the Café Grill has non-stick
cooking plates.
5. Be careful when biting into snacks
containing fillings such as cheese, tomato
or jam as they retain heat and can burn if
eaten too quickly.

Care and Cleaning
EasyClean™ Non-Stick Coating
Your Café Grill features a special non-stick
coating which can be simply wiped clean
with a damp cloth.
Do not use sharp objects or cut food on top
of the Café Grill.
Sunbeam will not be liable for damage to the
non-stick coating where metal utensils have
been used.
When cleaning the non-stick coating do not
use metal (or other abrasive) scourers.
After cleaning, dry the Café Grill and lid
thoroughly with a soft cloth before storing.
Always turn the power OFF and REMOVE the
plug from the power point before cleaning.
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 Café Grill in water or any
other liquid. Do not use abrasive scouring pads
or powders.
Do not place your Café Grill in a dishwasher.
Always clean after each use to prevent a build
up of cooking residue on the grill.
To clean the exterior
Simply wipe over with a dampened cloth and
polish dry with a dry soft cloth. Do not use
steel wool, scouring pads or abrasive cleaners
as these will scratch the surface.
Storage
Your Café Grill will store in an upright
position in cupboards, shelves or on the
bench top. Simply bring the plates together
and located on the right cast metal arm,
press the securing latch. This will lock the
plates together.
