NOTES
• This appliance MUST be serviced only by a qualied
licensed person.
• This product is intended for outdoor use only.
• Ventilation holes in the unit must not be obscured by
the installation.
*The outlet pressure at the Natual Gas regulator will be
lower when all burners are operating. Burner pressure
should read 1.0kPa with one burner operating and
approximately 0.93kPa with four burners operating.
For conversion to Natural Gas a conversion kit will need to
be purchased from Electrolux Spare Parts.
Assembling the barbecue (cont.) Gas specications
• This appliance is designed to use a Universal LPG 9kg
(20 lbs) gas cylinder.
• The gas cylinder must be made and marked in
accordance with specications for LPG cylinders
• The isolation valve must be turned off when the
appliance is not in use.
• Gas cylinders must be stored in an approved housing
out of reach of children.
• When disconnecting the gas bottle ensure that all the
control valves are in the ‘OFF’ position.
• Remove the bottle from any housing in which it may be
stored before disconnection.
• When reconnecting the hose to the bottle, ensure that
all connections are tight before replacing in the storage
compartment.
• Carry out a leakage check as detailed below after each
reconnection.
Gas bottle safety information

electrolux e:volution barbecue installing the gas cylinder / leak test procedure / conversion to natural gas 15
Installing the gas cylinder
To install bottle:
1. Open both gas bottle compartment doors and pull out
sliding tray.
2. Wind out clamp screw to allow base of bottle to t.
3. Place gas bottle into tray and tighten clamp to secure
bottle.
4. Make connection of gas hose to gas bottle.
Gas bottles vary in size and there may be some variations
that do not t into the space provided. As an alternative to
mounting the gas bottle in slide out tray, the bottle can be
placed on the ground and hose placed through hole in rear
panel for connection to inlet.
clamp screw
• Ensure all gas valves are in the ‘OFF’ position.
• In a small container, mix a solution of water and
detergent or soap.
• After connection of the hose, turn on the valve at the
gas bottle or mains as appropriate.
• Using a brush apply the solution to the gas connection
points and look for bubbles forming.
• Bubbling will indicate a leak.
• Turn off the valve and re-tighten the joint. Repeat the
leak test.
• If the leak persists, turn off the gas at the isolation valve
and contact a licensed gas tter to correct.

electrolux e:volution barbecue choosing a location / installation warnings 17
• The vertical clearance above the cooking surface to any
combustible materials must be at least 1000mm.
• Cooking with roasting hood closed vents the hot
ue gases out the rear of the appliance. A minimum
clearance of 450mm to any combustible materials is
required.
• The appliance requires clearance on both sides and at
rear for ventilation, ensure at least 100mm clearance.
• Avoid windy conditions as this will affect cooking
performance and burner efciency. If this situation
cannot be avoided some shielding may be necessary.
• The barbecue grills and hotplates are slightly sloped
to enable grease & oil drainage into front receptacles.
When choosing a location ensure that the slope
towards the front is maintained.

Before lighting the barbecue:
• Check that all hoses and gas ttings are tight.
• Open the roasting hood or slimline lid
NOTE the slimline lid is designed as a cover for weather
protection. The lid is not designed to be used as a cooking
hood
• Check all control knobs are in the ‘OFF’ position
• Ensure that the cooking surfaces are clean
• Turn the gas isolation valve ‘ON’
Lighting instructions
• Do not attempt to light burners with cooking surfaces
covered
• Read instructions before lighting
• To light a burner, depress the knob and rotate to ‘HIGH’
• A spark is generated to light the ame thrower along
side the burner. The ame thrower makes an audible
noise and only operates when the knob is depressed to
light the burner. Release the knob and check if burner
is lit. The audible noise from the ame thrower will stop
when knob released.
• If the burner did not light, turn the knob to the ‘OFF’ position.
Allow gas to disperse, then repeat lighting procedure.
Manual lighting
• If, in the event of the automatic ignition system not
working, the barbecue can be lit manually
• A match holder with attached chain is xed to the panel
behind top of door. For the 3 door model, it is near the
hinge of the centre door. For the 2 door model it is near
the hinge of the left door. It is accessible from inside the
cabinet.

Operating instructions

electrolux e:volution barbecue operating instructions / using the roasting hood 19
Preheating
• This barbecue is tted with high power burners. In
most conditions it will only be necessary to preheat the
barbecue for 5 minutes before cooking can commence
• As with most things, experience will familiarise you with
the effectiveness of and the time required to achieve the
desired preheating time to obtain the desired cooking
temperature
• Testing has shown that the burners can be turned to
low position for satisfactory cooking
• If the unit does not operate correctly refer to the
troubleshooting section on page 22
• If the burners are left to run too hot there will be excessive
smoking during the cooking process and subsequent
burning of the food being prepared. This may also result
in excessive aring of the fat being emitted from the food
• Roasting with the hood closed only requires the 2
outermost burners on low setting for satisfactory cooking.

• When cooking is complete, rotate the knob fully
clockwise so the pointer on the knob is positioned at
the ‘OFF’ position
• Turn gas bottle isolation valve off after turning all knobs
to ‘OFF’ position when appliance not in use
Cooking with the hood closed only requires 2 burners to
be on low setting. Setting is to be adjusted depending on
conditions and using the temperature indicator as a guide.
• It is recommended when roasting to place the solid
hot plate in the centre with one grill on each side of the
plate. Use the two outer burners under the grills.
• To achieve even cooking of the food, place the food
onto a wire rack above the hot plate to allow air to
circulate under the food.
• Food can also be placed on the warming racks for
cooking with hood closed
warning
• Do not use more than 2 burners when hood closed and
do not allow the temperature to exceed the ‘Ready’
zone of the temperature indicator. These conditions
create excessive heat and may cause damage to the
barbecue and roasting hood.
• When cooking with the hood closed the hot ue
gases ow out the rear of the appliance between the
splashguard and the hood. Ensure the barbecue is
suitably located to avoid damage or injury.
