How to use your Sunbeam Sizzling Grill.
Before first use.
Using your Sizzling Grill.
1. Insert the Heat Control Probe fully into the
socket of the hotplate.
Wash the hotplate and drip tray in warm soapy
water using a mild household detergent. Dry
hotplate and drip tray thoroughly.
2. Plug the cord into a 230-240 volt power
outlet and turn the power on.
Place drip tray into base. For easy cleaning line
the drip tray with aluminium foil. This will
collect the fats and juices.
3. Set the Heat Control Probe dial to the
desired heat setting, or the heat setting
recommended in the recipe. When the
thermostat light on the control probe
switches off, the desired cooking
Position the hotplate over base and drip tray, as
shown in Figure 1.
For better non-stick performance, “season” the
cooking surface of the hotplate by applying a
thin coat of cooking oil and rubbing in with
paper towelling before each use.
temperature has been reached and the
Sizzling Grill is ready to use.
Note: The thermostat light on the Heat Control
Probe indicates the Sizzling Grill is heating. This
light will remain ON until the set temperature
has been reached and then will cycle ON and
OFF throughout cooking. This will ensure that
the Sizzling Grill always maintains the selected
temperature.
WARNING: Charcoal or similar combustible fuels
must not be used with this appliance.
The pre-heat time will depend on the heat
setting selected. If a high heat setting is
selected, a longer pre-heat time is required.
Handy Hints.
•
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.
•
•
The variable heat control has a wide range
of heat settings ideal for specific cooking
tasks. The table below lists suggested heat
settings.
Always use a high temperature, heat
resistant plastic cooking implement or
wooden utensil with your Sizzling Grill to lift
or turn foods.
•
Avoid turning food regularly. Once the food
has been seared on both sides, cook food at
a reduced heat setting. This prevents the
food from drying out and will cook your
food more evenly. Avoid overcooking meat
as the texture will toughen.
•
The ribbed hotplate is ideal for cooking a
variety of meats, including beef, fish and
poultry. The drainage hole allow the fats
and juices to drain into the drip tray for
healthy fat free cooking.
Setting
Function
1 - 4
5 - 8
Low heat settings - keep warm
Medium heat settings - to cook food thoroughly
High heat settings - searing
9 - 12
+ Super Sear
Note:
The Sizzling Grill will reach the cooking temperature in 8 minutes on the maximum heat setting (Super Sear).
The hotplate is then ready for cooking. The indicator light will turn on and off during use of the grill
as the thermostat maintains the cooking temperature.
Note:
When barbecuing on high heat settings, the Sizzling Grill will generate smoke. Selecting a lower
heat setting will reduce smoke. For indoor use, adequate ventilation is recommended.
Care and Cleaning.
IMPORTANT: Do not use metal utensils as these
will scratch the non-stick cooking surface.
A bottle brush may be used to clean the
drainage hole in the ribbed hotplate.
Do not leave plastic utensils in contact with
hotplate while cooking.
The hotplate and drip tray are also dishwasher
safe.
Before cleaning, turn the power OFF then
REMOVE the plug from the power outlet and
the Heat Control Probe from the socket of the
Sizzling Grill.
Do not use abrasives or metal scourers as they
will scratch the non-stick cooking surface. Dry
the hot plate and drip tray thoroughly before
storing.
Heat Control Probe.
If cleaning is necessary, wipe over with a damp
cloth.
Moulded Base.
The base can be wiped over with a damp cloth
or washed in warm soapy water using a mild
household detergent and a soft washing
sponge.
Do not immerse the control probe in water or
any other liquid.
Do not use abrasives or metal scourers as they
may scratch the base.
NEVER use the Sizzling Grill Heat Control Probe
in any other Sunbeam appliance.
The moulded base is also dishwasher safe.
Storage
Store the probe carefully in a safe place. Do not
knock or drop it as this can damage the probe. If
damage is suspected, return the control probe
to your nearest Sunbeam Service Centre for
inspection. Refer to the back of your instruction
book for Service Centre listings.
Storage.
Always dry and assemble the Sizzling Grill
before storing. Ensure the drip tray and hotplate
are correctly positioned.
Store the assembled Sizzling Grill on a flat
surface on your benchtop or cupboard.
Splatter Guard.
Important:
Wash the splatter guard in warm soapy water
using a mild household detergent and soft
washing sponge.
Before inserting Heat Control Probe in probe
socket ensure the interior of the socket is fully
dry. To do this wipe interior of socket with a dry
cloth or shake out excess water vigorously.
We do not recommend the splatter guard is
cleaned in the dishwasher.
Grillplate and Drip Tray.
The element in the hotplate is totally sealed, so
it is safe to fully immerse in water. Wash the
hotplate and drip tray in warm soapy water
using a mild household detergent and a soft
washing sponge.
