Sunbeam’s Safety PrecautionsSunbeam’s Safety Precautions
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR YOUR SUNBEAM
ELLISE STAINLESS NON-STICK SKILLET.
• Use your skillet at least 200mm away from
walls and curtains.
• Do not immerse the Control Probe in water.
• If using a plastic spatula do not leave in
cooking vessel when hot.
• The skillet must only be used with the Control
Probe provided.
• Avoid using on metal surfaces e.g. sink,
hotplate.
• Remove the Control Probe before cleaning the
skillet.
• After cleaning the skillet ensure that the
Control Probe Inlet area is completely dry
before using again.
• The knob on the glass lid may get hot during
use – oven mitts may be required.
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 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.
• 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 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 on 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.
• For safety reasons and to avoid maintenance
by unskilled persons, some appliances are
‘sealed’ using tamperproof screws. Such
appliances should always be returned to the
nearest Sunbeam Appointed 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 Sunbeam Appointed Service Centre
for examination, repair or adjustment.
• 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 power to your appliances.
• Do not immerse the appliance in water
or any other liquid unless recommended.

Note: The temperature uses are a guide
only and may require adjustment to suit
various foods and individual tastes. When
the dial is set to a low setting, it is quite
normal for food to stop and start bubbling,
as the thermostat maintains the selected
temperature.
High Domed Lid
With the lid in place, the skillet can be
used as an oven, giving you the versatility
to cook roasts, larger pieces of beef, lamb
and chicken. The lid also retains heat and
moisture when simmering food.
Cast-in Element
The heating element is completely cast into
the base, which is adhered onto the stainless
steel non-stick skillet providing superior heat
distribution.

Using your Ellise Stainless
Non-Stick Skillet
8
Before the first use: Ensure all stickers are
removed from the product. Wash in warm
soapy water, rinse thoroughly and dry your
pan and lid.
1. Insert the Control Probe into the inlet on
the 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 6 for
the temperature guide.
The light on the control probe will illuminate.
This light will remain on until the set
temperature has been reached and then will
cycle on and off throughout cooking, as the
cooking temperature is maintained by the
thermostat.
Hint: On initial heating of the skillet, it
is recommended that the temperature be
allowed to cycle (the light glowing on and
off) several times. This will help the cooking
surface to adjust to a more accurate cooking
temperature.
Note: The skillet must only be used with the
Control Probe provided.
Care and Cleaning
9
Control Probe
If cleaning is necessary, wipe over with a
damp cloth.
Note: The Control Probe must be removed
before the skillet is cleaned and the Control
Probe inlet must be dried before the skillet is
used again.
NEVER 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.
Pan and Lid
The pan and lid are fully immersible and
can be washed in warm soapy water using a
mild household detergent and a soft washing
sponge.
They can also be cleaned in the dishwasher.
