H1. CookingGrill
Clean with hot soapy water. To removeany food
residue, use amild creamcleaner on anon-abrasive
pad. Rinse well and dry thoroughly.
H2. Burner Maintenance
Your burner has been preset foroptimalflame
performance. You willnormallysee a blue flame,
possibly with asmallyellow tip when the burner is
alight.If the flamepattern is significantlyyellow, this
could be a problem caused by grease from cooking
blockingthe burner or spiders or other insects in the
burner venturi.This can result in the flow ofthe gas
and air mixture being restricted orblocked which may
result ina fire behind the controlpanel causing
serious damage to your barbecue.If thishappens,
the gasshouldbe immediately turnedoff at the
bottle. Burners should be inspected and cleaned on
a regular basis in addition to the following conditions:
1) Bringingthe barbecue out of storage.
2) One or moreofthe burners do not ignite.
3) The burner flame pattern is significantly yellow.
4) The gas ignites behind the control panel.
To clean a burner, remove it from the barbecue. The
outside ofthe burner canbe cleaned with a wire
brush. Clean the portholes with a pipe cleaner or
piece of wire. Take care notto enlarge the portholes.
Clean the insect screen on the end ofthe venturi
tube with a bristle brush (i.e. anold toothbrush).
Clean the venturitube with a pipe cleaner or piece of
wire. You may need a torch to see into the venturi
tube to makesure itis clear. ”Turn the burner up on
end and lightlytap against apiece of wood to
dislodge any debris from inside.”
H3. Barbecue Body
Regularly removeexcess grease or fat from the
barbecue body with asoft plasticor wooden scraper.
Itis notnecessary to remove all thegrease from the
body. If you need to clean fully, use hot soapy water
and acloth, or nylon-bristled brush only. Remove
cooking surfaces and burners before fullcleaning. Do
not immerse the gas controls or manifold in water.
Check burner operation after carefully refitting into
body.
H4. Fixings
Allscrews and bolts, etc.should be checked and
tightened on a regular basis.
H5. Storage
Store your barbecue in a cool dryplace. Itmust be
inspected on a regular basis as damp or
condensation can form which mayresult in damage
to the barbecue. It may be necessary to dry the
barbecue and the inside ofthe cover if used. Mould
can grow under these conditions and should be
cleaned and treated if required.Any rust that is found
that does not come into contact with the food should
be treated with a rust inhibitor and paintedwith
barbecue paint or a heatresistant paint. Chrome
plated warming racks and grills should be coated
with cooking oil.Wrap the burners in aluminiumfoil to
help preventinsects or other debris from obstructing
the burners.
The gas bottlemust bealways be disconnected from
the barbecue and stored in awell ventilated area at
least 1 metreaway from any fixedignitionsource. Do
