SAFETY INFORMATION
•Do not use this appliance if it is leaking gas (see notes below on how to
check for a gas leak).
•Do not fully cover the cooking area with a solid cooking plate, as the braai
will over heat, resulting in component failure.
•Keep young children away from the appliance when in use.
•In the event of a burn-back (where the ame burns back to the jet)
immediately turn o the gas supply at the control valve on the front panel.
After ensuring the ame is extinguished, re-light the appliance in the normal
manner. Should the appliance again burn back, close the control valve and
call a service technician to examine the appliance. Do not use the appliance
again until the service technician has declared that it is safe to do so.
•If there is an apparent gas leak, (gas smell) close the control valve on the
appliance. Make sure that there are no naked ames within 5 metres of the
appliance and check for leaks as described below.
•Never check for gas leaks with a naked ame as this is extremely dangerous.
•To check for a gas leak, use a brush dipped in a soapy water solution (e.g.
water with dishwashing liquid added) and apply the solution to all the joints
in the system. If there is a leak then turn o the gas supply at the shut-o
valve which the installer will provide as a part of the installation. Call a service
technician to examine the appliance and do not use the appliance until the
service technician has declared that it is safe to do so.
•Ensure that the appliance is used away from ammable materials.
•Do not remove the serial plate that is attached to your appliance. This
contains important information in addition to the serial number of the unit
which the manufacturer will require should you need to make a service call.

PREPARING THE CHAD-O-CHEF GAS GRILL FOR USE
•Make sure that the protective lm is removed from all surfaces before using
the appliance.
•Place a single layer of the Wood or Charcoal evenly over the Ember
Drawer, no higher then 80mm. Adding excessive wood will result in poor
proformance and componant faliure.
•Use only the best wood available. The use of poor quality wood may result in
poor performance.
•Ensure that the regulator is properly connected to the cylinder and that the
connections have been checked to ensure there are no gas leaks present.
•Check that all Burners, Braai Grids and the Ember Drawer are in the correct
position.
•Check that there are no ammable materials close to the appliance.
•You are now ready to light the CHAD-O-CHEF Gas Grill for the rst time.

VENTILATION REQUIREMENTS
CARE & MAINTENANCE
USING THE APPLIANCE
To turn o the appliance turn all the Control knobs in a clockwise direction to the
o position. Then close the master shut-o or isolation valve. Do not attempt to
blow the Burner Flames out.
This appliance is designed specically to be installed in an open area providing
that care is taken that the base or foundation upon which the unit is installed is of
a re resistant material. An Extractor Hood is necessary for inside use.
•Besides the normal cleaning required after use there are no user service
points on this appliance.
•It is recommended that the appliance be serviced by a qualied technician
on an annual basis.
•Before undertaking any cleaning or maintenance work on the appliance,
make sure that it is not hot and that the shut-o valve is turned o.
•CHAD-O-CHEF appliances are made from stainless steel. Whilst this is a
very durable material and is widely used for appliance manufacture, its
surface can be damaged by misuse or the application of unsuitable cleaning
materials or methods.
•To clean the external surfaces of the appliance, use a specialized stainless
steel cleaner supplied by Chad-O-Chef, or a non abrasive detergent such as
washing up liquid or cream based Handy Andy to remove accumulated fat
or grease. Never use oven cleaner or any caustic cleaner, abrasive cleaning
solvents, scouring powders, metal polish, silverware cleaners or any type of
scouring pads as this will permanently damage the surface.
•When in use make sure that there are no ammable materials close to the
front, sides or rear of the appliance.
•After starting the appliance, leave all burners on High for 10 -15 mins. Or until
the Wood/Charcoal has burned down to embers. After that time adjust the
heat to the desired level by turning the control knobs as required or turn all
knobs “O”.
•When nished grilling, leave the appliance on high for a further 5 - 10 mins.
This will remove excess fat from the Ember Tray.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
•To clean the Braai Grids remove from the appliance and soak in hot
detergent solution or place in the dishwasher. Braai Grids may be cleaned
with ”Scotch Brite” scouring pads. Rinse well in clean water before placing
the parts back into the appliance.
•Avoid contact with aggressive chemicals.
•Don’t Use oven cleaners.
•Don’t store any chemicals (especially pool chemicals) close to your braai.
In order to function correctly the unit must not be over-loaded with
wood/charcoal. A maximum height of 80mm may be used.
•This appliance requires a shut-o valve to be tted in a convenient position
for the customer.
•This appliance requires a minimum of 1m copper pipe to be tted directly
onto the compression tting located at the gas inlet.
•This appliance requires an operating pressure of 2,8 kPa for LP Gas and 2.1
kPa for Natural Gas. A suitable regulator that complies with the requirements
of SANS 1237 must be installed outside. Ensure that the ow capacity of the
installed regulator is sucient to drive the model to be installed.
•It is preferable that the Hybrid Grill be installed in the open and any
surrounds are of a non-ammable material. If installed in a structure that
can be damaged with heat, ensure that a suitable ame retardant buering
is used. The manufacturer will not accept any responsibility if the installation
instructions re safety clearances are not adhered to.
•Where a ue or fume extraction device is deemed to be required, contact
the manufacturer for information on these products. Where the appliance is
installed inside then it is recommended that such a device be tted prior to
commissioning the appliance and handing it over to the user.
•Before lighting the appliance for the rst time ensure that there are no gas
leaks and that a pressure test is done.
•The Gas installer is required to light the burners in the presence of the
owner/ user and to instruct that person in the safe operation of the appliance
and the complete installation.
•It is particularly important to show the user the position of the isolation valve
•Installers are required to provide the owner/user with a completion
certicate which must be dated and signed by both parties. Ensure that your
name and SAQCC number appear on the certicate.

Guarantee Claim Form
The Guarantee given by Chad-O-Engineering (Pty) Ltd covers the working
components, on all Chad-O-Chef Gas Grills for the period of 3 Years
(+ 1 Year t’s & c’s apply), covering manufacturing defects caused in the
manufacturing process. This does not cover component malfunction if the
product is not installed by a registered Gas Installer, or if the product is
modified after leaving the factory.
Chad-O-Engineering (Pty) Ltd will not be held responsible in the event of
rust. Stainless Steel is inherently corrosion resistant when compared to
other metals, due to its thin protective surface layer. This does not mean
that it is rust-proof & it will require regular maintenance to preserve this
protective surface layer. Customers staying in areas or homes with higher
atmospheric corrosion will be expected to purchase the coastal grade
stainless steel option, along with regular maintenance to enjoy the high-
quality standards that is to be expected from Chad-O-Chef.
Read your complete Instruction manual & ensure that you understand it
fully. Your product invoice & gas installation certificate are required when
applying for a guarantee claim.
