Sunbeam’s Safety Precautions.
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 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 your
electricity supplier or qualified technician.
• Always use your appliance from a power outlet of the
voltage (A.C. only) marked on the underside of 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 or infirm persons should be supervised
to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
• 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 in 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.
• Do not immerse in water.
• For safety reasons and to avoid maintenance by
unskilled persons, some appliances are ‘sealed’ using
tamperproof means as specified by S.A.A. (Standards
Association of Australia). Such appliances should
always be returned to the nearest 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 Service
Centre for examination, repair or adjustment. As a
service to Customers, Service Centres will carry out a
free check on your appliance to ensure it is electrically
safe.
• 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 the power outlet in use.
• Use well away from walls and curtains.
• Do not immerse the control probe in water
or any other liquid.
• Do not use the control probe in any other
appliance.
• For indoor use, adequate ventilation or an
exhaust fan is recommended.
• Always use this appliance under a sheltered
roof when cooking outdoors.
• Do not leave plastic utensils in contact with
appliance while cooking.
• Only use appliance fully assembled with all
parts correctly in place, as specified in this
instruction book.

Features of your Compact BBQ Grill.
Non-Stick Coating
Your Sunbeam Compact BBQ Grill features
DuPonts' toughest non-stick coating produced
to date - Platinum 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 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
Compact BBQ Grill.
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
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
against an 'other'
non-stick coating.
Each surface has
undergone 5
cycles of the
DuPont In-House Abuse Test.
The Teflon Platinum only has some surface
scuffing, whereas the 'other' non-stick coating
has deteriorate 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.
