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.

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. Preheat the frypan/skillet on setting 7-8.
Then 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.

Using the pan tilt lever

The pan tilt lever on the frypan 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 occur 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.
