Congratulations  
Congratulations on the purchase of your  
Sunbeam Café Series Deep Fryer.  
Fryer features 2400 watts of power and a  
1.25kg cooking capacity. The deep fryer has  
been designed with ‘cool-zone’ technology  
for healthier deep frying. The element is  
suspended in the oil to create a ‘cool-zone' at  
the bottom of the vessel.  
The Sunbeam Café Series delivers quality,  
style and superior performance capturing  
the essence of the commercial kitchen.  
Inspired by heavy-duty equipment found in  
restaurants, cafés and bars, the Café Series™  
is built to last. It brings together a range  
of appliances designed to expertly create  
authentic café food and beverages at home.  
This results in cleaner oil and more precise  
temperature control while cooking. The  
‘cool-zone’ also prevents cooking debris  
from gathering around the element and  
burning effectively doubling the life of the  
oil. Providing a safe and simple way to cook,  
the deep fryer’s basket is easily lifted in and  
out of the cooking vessel by its cool touch  
handle.  
Uncompromising blends of stainless steel,  
glass and die-cast alloy characterise the  
range. Advanced technology and functional  
design guarantee the performance of each  
product will exceed expectations  
Cooking delicious crispy food is so easy!  
Creating authentic tempura or classic  
fish and chips has never been this easy  
before. The Sunbeam Café Series Deep

Features of your Stainless  
Deep Fryer  
Lid  
Allows steam to escape whilst aiding in the  
filtration of oil droplets. It also has a large  
viewing window to monitor your results.  
Remove lid whilst food is fryer.  
Reset button  
Due to the safety thermostat that switches  
your fryer off in case of overheating, the reset  
button allows you to reset your stainless deep  
fryer once the appliance has cooled down.  
Basket with 1.25kg food capacity  
The removable mesh cooking basket has a  
1.25kg food capacity. The basket has two  
frying levels and you can shake it whilst  
cooking just like a commercial deep fryer.  
The basket also features a cool touch handle  
which folds away for easy storage.  
Stainless steel tank  
The large stainless steel tank holds an oil  
capacity of 4.0 litres.

Cool-Zone  
The 2400 watt heating element is suspended  
in the oil, creating a ‘cool-zone’ at the  
bottom of the vessel. This prevents cooking  
debris burning which will effectively double  
the useful lifespan of the oil compared with  
other deep fryers.

3.Place the fryer on a flat and stable surface  
away from any heating source and where it  
cannot be splashed with water.  
4.Use the carrying handles when moving the  
product, never carry the appliance by the  
lid.  
Safety Feature of the thermostat  
Your stainless deep fryer is equipped with a  
safety thermostat that switches your fryer off  
in case of overheating.  
Filling your Stainless Deep Fryer  
Note: Do not connect the fryer to the  
electricity supply if there is no oil or fat in  
the tank.  
This will be activated when the desired  
temperature of the oil is reached, the  
red indicator light will turn off and the  
power supplied to the heating element is  
automatically cut off. The fryer is now ready  
to cook. When the oil temperature drops, the  
heating element will switch on automatically.  
1.Remove the lid and take out the frying  
basket. Pull the handle backwards  
until the handle locks into position  
.
This may also occur if there is no (or too  
little) oil in the tank. If the thermostat has  
switched the fryer off, allow your fryer to cool  
down and carefully press the reset button on  
the front of the unit on the left hand side  
.

Cooking in your Stainless Deep Fryer  
5.When the food is cooked (see time guide  
chart on page 9), place the basket on its  
raised position to drain for a few seconds.  
There are two methods of cooking in your  
fryer; one general method for most foodstuffs  
and another for home battered products.  
6.Remove the basket and put the fried food  
on a plate covered with absorbent paper or  
kitchen towel.  
Note: During cooking, steam will build up in  
the fryer, so when lifting the lid use a kitchen  
glove or mitt to protect your hand.  
7.When finished with the fryer, turn the  
temperature knob to the lowest setting  
and switch the power off. Remove the plug  
from mains power.  
General cooking method  
(For pre-cooked, crumbed, floured or wrapped  
food.)  
8.Clean the fryer only after the oil is  
completely cooled down.  
1.Adjust the control dial to the desired  
temperature. The red temperature indicator  
light will illuminate.  
Cooking home battered food  
2.When the oil has reached the required  
temperature, the green ready light will  
illuminate. Remove the lid, lift the basket

batter is placed in the basket prior to cooking  
the food may stick to the basket. This

in contact with the oil. Place the food,  
(should be as dry as possible) into the  
raised basket.  
1.Adjust the control dial to the desired  
temperature. The red temperature indicator  
light will illuminate.  
Note: The basket should always be in the  
raised position when it is to be filled with  
food.  
2.When the oil has reached the required  
temperature the light will go out.  
Note: Leave the basket in the down position.  
3.Remove the lid of the fryer.  
4.Coat the food in batter and allow it to drain  
slightly to get rid of the excess coating.  
5.Very carefully, slowly lower the coated food  
into the hot oil, using a suitable implement  
or tongs. This allows the batter to become  
solid and prevents it sealing to the mesh of  
the basket.  
Note: Remember to take care as the oil may  
spit as the food is added.  
3.Lower the basket into the tank.  
4.Do not cook food with the lid on.  
You can now follow the instructions as given  
in the general cooking method, steps 4 - 8.

Hints for perfect frying  
1. Never use the fryer without oil.  
6. Large pieces of food should not be deep  
fried, as they take to long to cook thus  
absorbing too much oil.  
2. Always use the best quality oil possible.  
We recommend corn, nut, seed or light  
olive oil. Never use butter, margarine or  
regular olive oil or extra virgin olive oil.  
7. Fry small amounts at a time, adding too  
much at a time will decrease the oils  
temperature and increase the chance that  
food will stick together.  
3. Avoid mixing oils of different qualities or  
types.  
8. Make sure that food is dry before frying,  
wet food will splatter.  
4. Change the oil when it becomes brown or  
milky in colour.  
9. Always dry or roll wet food in flour before  
coating in a batter. Otherwise the extra  
steam created will separate the coating  
from the food.  
5. Take into account the food to be cooked  
before setting the frying temperature. As  
a general guide precooked food will need  
a higher temperature than raw food, and  
the larger the individual items the lower  
the temperature should be.  
10.Preheat the oil with the lid on.  
11.Remove lid whilst cooking.

Care and Cleaning  
Care and Cleaning  
Cleaning should only be carried out when the  
fryer is switched off and the plug removed  
from the socket. Your fryer should have  
completely cooled.  
Lid and permanent filter  
Your stainless deep fryer features a  
permanent filter that we advise you to clean  
at regular intervals. Either put the entire  
lid into the dishwasher or into hot soapy  
water and let it soak there for 5-10 minutes.  
Shake the remaining water out of the lid and  
let it dry.

The Perfect Chip  
• For perfect fries and wedges, old potatoes  
are ideal. The potato should be of a low  
starch, waxy variety i.e. Sebago, Russet  
Burbank, Spunta, King Edward, Bintje.  
• Cooking times will vary depending on the  
size of your fries or chips and the variety  
of the potato used.  
PLeASe Note: If cooking 1kg of homemade  
raw potato chips, it is recommended that  
only 3.5 litres of oil is used.  
• Make sure that the chips are cut to even  
size to guarantee even cooking.  
• The cut chips should be rinsed under  
running water until the water runs  
clear. This removes excess starch from  
the potatoes, the starch burns at high  
temperatures.  
Hints for cooking the perfect frozen chip.  
• Do not defrost frozen pre-cooked chips.  
For the best results they should be taken  
directly from the freezer to the fryer.  
• Heat oil to the maximum setting, 190°C.  
• Dry on kitchen towel before frying.  
• Remove the lid whilst cooking.  
• For best results for frozen chips refer to  
chip packet.  
• Shake the basket at short intervals to  
encourage even browning and to stop  
chips sticking together.  
• Allow chips to drain for a moment before  
removing from the basket and seasoning.  
• Homemade fries are double cooked.  
The first fry blanches the chips so that  
they cook through. The second fry colours  
the chips and gives them a crisp crust.
