Using your Fryware
Before the first use: Wash, rinse and dry your
frypan/skillet and lid. Season the cooking
surface by applying a thin coat of cooking oil
and rub in with paper towelling.
1. Insert the control probe into the inlet on
the frypan/skillet.
2. Plug the cord into a 230-240V power
outlet and turn the power on.
3. Set the control probe dial to the desired
temperature setting. Refer to page 8 for
the temperature guide.
Note: The light on the control probe will
illuminate and will remain on until the set
temperature is reached. It will then cycle
on and off throughout cooking, as the
temperature is maintained by the thermostat.
On initial heating of the frypan/skillet, it
is recommended that the temperature be
allowed to cycle (the light cycling on and
off) several times. This will help the cooking
surface to adjust to a more accurate cooking
temperature.
Adjustable lid holder
(Models FP5600/FP5900)
This is a stepped catch on the side of the lid.
It allows the lid to rest above the frypan and
eliminates the need to find a spot on the
bench. When in position the lid also acts as a
spatter shield. The lid can rest on either side
of the handle for the FP5900 and on the
opposite edges for the FP5600.
Using the pan tilt lever
(Models FP5600/FP5900)
The pan tilt lever is positioned under the inlet
where the control probe is inserted.
To tilt the frypan, push the lever down. This
allows the fat and juices to drain from the
food for crisp, low fat cooking. It also makes it
easier to baste food and serve sauces or gravy.
Note: Any discolouration on the cooking
surface that may occour will not affect the
cooking performance. Do not use metal
utensils, these will scratch and damage
the non-stick cooking surface. Sunbeam
recommends only using heat-proof plastic or
wooden utensils to stir food.

Cooking with your Sunbeam
Fryware
Baking
(Models FP5600/FP5900)
Your frypan can be used for baking cakes,
with deliciously moist results.
1. Preheat the frypan to setting 10,
with the lid on.
2. Elevate the cake pan or tray from the base
of the frypan using a small wire rack.
Cooking times will be longer than those of a
conventional oven.
Basting
(Models FP5600/FP5900)
The pan tilt lever makes basting easy as it
allows the juices to drain to one side of the
pan. Reduce the temperature to prevent any
fat and juices spattering. Position the pan tilt
lever and spoon the juices over the food as
desired.
Boiling Pasta
(Models FP5600/FP5900)
1. Bring 6 cups of water to the boil on setting
5. Add 1-2 teaspoons of oil to stop the
pasta from sticking together.
2. Add 250g (1½ cups) of pasta and cook
until tender, for approximately 8-12
minutes.
3. Reduce to a lower setting if the water boils
too rapidly.
Note: Cooking times will vary with different
types of pasta.
Boiling Rice
(Models FP5600/FP5900)
1. Bring 6 cups of water to the boil on setting
5. Add 200g (1 cup) of rice and position
the lid.
2. Cook until tender, approximately 10-12
minutes, and then drain.
3. Reduce to a lower setting if the water boils
too rapidly. Stir occasionally so that the
rice does not stick.
Browning and Sealing Meat
(All models)
It is necessary to brown and seal meat in
many recipes. Meat retains its juices and the
flavours develop after browning and sealing.
This also prevents it from sticking when
baking or roasting. Preferably use meat that
is at room temperature, as this reduces the
cooking time.
1. Preheat the frypan to settings 8-9.
2. Brown meat on all sides, with the lid off.
3. After sealing, reduce the temperature to
settings 4-5 and replace the lid until the
meat is cooked as desired.
10
Cooking with your Sunbeam Fryware continued
Frying
(All models)
The frypan and skillet are ideal for shallow
or dry frying. Deep frying is not particularly
suitable as both the frypan and skillet have
shallow sides and a greater surface area,
which results in heat loss and the possible
overflow of oil.
Pan frying: Suitable for eggs, omelettes,
bacon, sausages, steaks and chicken pieces.
Preheat to settings 5-6 with a little oil to add
flavour. Non-stick cooking surfaces do not
require a large amount of oil. Steaks should
only be turned once during cooking.
Shallow frying: Suitable for vegetable pieces
e.g roast pumpkin and potato, and crumbed
food. Preheat on settings 6-8 with sufficient
oil so that the food is half immersed. Cook
food with the lid off.
Sauteéing: Preheat on settings 5-6 with a
little oil to add flavour.
Stir frying: Food is cooked quickly, over a high
heat and vegetables retain their flavour and
crispness. For best results and even cooking,
cut food into even sized, smaller pieces.
1. Preheat the frypan on setting 8-9.
2. Slice meat into strips. Coat meat in a little
oil and stir-fry in batches until browned.
This prevents meat from stewing.
3. Add vegetables and seasoning, stirring
continuously. Vegetables which take longer
to cook, such as carrots, should be cooked
first, adding the other ingredients later.
Cook until the vegetables are still slightly
crisp. Return the meat back into the pan
when the vegetables are almost cooked.
The lid can be in position in the last few
minutes of cooking.
Roasting
(All models)
Meat and poultry: The frypan and skillet are
ideal for roasting meat and poultry, as the
meat retains the flavour and juices.
1. Preheat the frypan/skillet to settings 8-9.
Use only a small amount of oil for less
fatty joints and no oil for fattier joints of
meat.
2. Brown and seal the meat on all sides and
position the lid.
3. After browning, turn the dial to settings 45 to cook the meat as desired. Turn meat
occasionally during cooking to ensure even
cooking.
4. Remove meat from pan and cover with
foil. Allow meat to rest for 5-10 minutes,
meanwhile you can make a gravy from the
juices in the frypan.
Vegetables: Cut into even sized pieces. Add
to the frypan 45-60 minutes before serving.
For crisper vegetables, remove the meat and
increase the heat for the last few minutes of
cooking.
Roasting times:
Note: These times are for well done. Reduce
the times to suit personal taste.
PORK: 30-40 minutes per 500g after browning.
VEAL: 30-40 minutes per 500g after browning.
LAMB: 25-30 minutes per 500g after
browning.
CHICKEN: 30-35 minutes per 500g after browning.
11
Care and Cleaning
Always turn the power off and remove the
plug from the power outlet after use and
before cleaning. Allow appliance to cool
before cleaning.
Control probe
If cleaning is necessary, wipe over with a
damp cloth.
Note: The control probe must be removed
before the frypan/skillet is cleaned and the
control probe inlet must be dried before the
frypan/skillet is used again.
Important: Do not immerse the control probe in
water or other liquid.
Store the control probe carefully. Do not
knock or drop it as this can damage the
probe. If damage is suspected, return the
control probe to your nearest Sunbeam
Appointed Service Centre for inspection.
Refer to the separate warranty and service
centre booklet.
High domed metal lid
Wash the lid in warm soapy water using a
soft sponge, rinse and dry thoroughly. Metal
scourers will scratch the surface and should
be avoided. Some food such as tomato paste
and curry may stain the surface. This staining
may be removed or reduced by rubbing with
a cream cleanser or a paste of bicarbonate of
soda and water.
Note: Do not place metal lid in a dishwasher.
To clean interior and exterior surface.
• When cleaning the non-stick coating do
not use metal (or other abrasive) scourers.
After cleaning, dry the frypan and lid with
a soft cloth before storing.
• Wash in hot soapy water or in a dishwasher.
Remove stubborn spots with a plastic
washing pad or sponge.
• The heating element is totally sealed,
making the frypan safe to fully immerse in
water, or place in a dishwasher.
• Wash as directed, and re-season the
frypan/skillet before using again. In some
instances this may not remove all the
staining.
