Using your Sunbeam Café Press/Grill.
Before using your Café Press/Grill
Before using your Café Press/Grill for the first
time, the non-stick cooking plates must be
seasoned. Turn the power ON and pre-heat your
Café Press/Grill until the Ready Light illuminates.
Wipe a small amount of butter onto the plates,
rub lightly and wipe away any excess.
Note: When using your Café Press/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.
Note: Ensure that the cord is kept well away
Using your Café Press/Grill
1. Plug the power cord into a 230-240 volt AC
power outlet.
from the cooking plates when in use.
5. Allow your snack to toast for approximately 3
minutes, depending on the bread, filling and
personal taste. Your Café Press/Grill toasts
both sides of bread at the same time.
2. Turn the power ON and pre-heat your Café
Press until the Ready light illuminates.
3. Once you have prepared your snack, place
the bread onto the cooking plate.
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
Press/Grill, turn the power OFF.
4. Gently lower the lid by pulling down the cast
metal arms. 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.

Hints for best results.
1. Breads with a high sugar content (fruit loaf,
etc.) will toast more quickly than plain
sandwich breads.
6. Bread rolls may also be toasted with
desired filling.
7. For a light snack savoury or sweet bagels
may be toasted with desired filling.
2. Any type of bread can be used, white,
wholemeal, kibbled wheat or wholegrain.
8. Be careful when biting into sandwiches
containing fillings such as cheese, tomato or
jam as they retain heat and can burn if eaten
too quickly.
3. For sweet snacks, sprinkle castor sugar over
the buttered sides of the bread.
4. When using raisin bread, brioche or other
sweet breads which contain a high sugar
content, keep in mind that they will brown
much more quickly than other breads.
9. It is not necessary to butter the outside of all
breads as the Café Press/Grill has non-stick
cooking plates. However, to encourage even
browning of bread or when using stale
bread, spreading with a small amount of
butter is recommended.
5. For a wholesome meal, large pieces of focaccia
bread may be toasted with desired filling.

Care and Cleaning.
DuPont Teflon® Platinum
Do not place your Café Press/Grill in a
dishwasher.
Non-stick Coating (GR8400/GR8410)
Your Café Press/Grill features a special scratch
and abrasive-resistant non-stick coating that
makes it safe to use metal utensils when
cooking.
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.
Regardless of this fact Sunbeam recommends
that care is taken with the non-stick coating
particularly when using metal utensils.
Storage
Your Café Press/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.
Do not use sharp objects or cut food on top of
the Café Press/Grill. Sunbeam will not be liable
for damage to the non-stick coating where
metal utensils have been misused.
When cleaning the non-stick coating do not use
metal (or other abrasive) scourers. After
cleaning, dry the Café Press/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 Press/Grill in water or
any other liquid. Do not use abrasive scouring
pads or powders.
