TABLE OF CONTENTS
The regulator and hose assembly supplied with the barbecue are suitable
for use with bottled gas.
This regulator is adjusted to have an outlet pressure of 2.75 kPa for
connection to a gas cylinder only. The regulator and hose assembly supplied
with the appliance must be used. Replacement regulator and hose
assemblies must be those specified by the appliance manufacturer.
When connecting the hose and regulator assembly to the gas cylinder,
take care to avoid unnecessary twisting of the flexible hose. Also, take
care to avoid a loose connection with the gas cylinder. After the assembly
has been secured, turn on the gas and check for leaks by brushing a
soap and water solution over all visible and accessible gas line connections.
Include checking those connections which were made by your supplier.
The presence of bubbles will indicate a gas escape. DO NOT TEST FOR
GAS ESCAPES WITH AN OPEN FLAME. If you are unable to correct
the leak by tightening the connections, turn off the gas and contact your
place of purchase immediately.
Always ensure the appliance is kept away from flammable materials
and the gas cylinder clear of any heat source. When changing over from
an empty gas cylinder to a full one, make sure this procedure is carried
out in a flame free atmosphere.
Inspect the gas hose assembly when exchanging the gas cylinder,
or at least once a year, whichever is more frequent. If the ‘O-Ring’ or PVC
hose is cracked, cut, abraded or damaged in any way, the appliance must
not be operated. The complete assembly must be replaced if damaged
and when statutory conditions require it. Contact your place of purchase
if uncertain.
HOSE AND REGULATOR SAFETY
NEVER OPERATE THIS BARBECUE
WITHOUT A REGULATOR.
This appliance is certified to AS 4557 by the Australian Gas Association.
Refer data label on the barbecue for certificate number.

This test will ensure that the spark electrode tips are properly
positioned so your barbecue lights easily and properly.
WITH THE ASSISTANCE OF ANOTHER
PERSON, PERFORM THIS ELECTRODE CHECK
BEFORE PROCEEDING.
Ensure the gas source is turned off – or is disconnected and all
burner control knobs are set to ‘OFF’– and open the lids / side
shelves.
Have your assistant stand behind to the right of the barbe-
cue and look toward the front of the barbecue. Never put your
face inside the barbecue.
Press the push button ignition. You should hear a ‘clicking’
sound. Your assistant should see a blue spark within each gas
collector box. If a spark is present the electrode tips are properly
positioned.
If no spark is seen, the spark gap needs to be
adjusted as follows:
• Using an adjustable spanner, loosen the inside nut until the
gas collector box can be turned upward. If the gap between
the spark electrode tip and receiver is more than 4 - 5 mm use
long nose pliers to gently squeeze the gas collector box to
narrow gap. Return the gas collector box to its original
position, secure the inside nut and try the electrode check
again.

‘HI’ setting – Use this setting only for warm up, for searing steaks
and chops, and for burning food residue from the grill plates after
the cooking is over. Rarely, if ever, do you use the ‘HI’ setting for
extended cooking.
‘MEDIUM’ setting (mid-way between ‘HI’ and ‘LOW’). Use this
setting for most grilling, and for cooking hamburgers and vegetables.
‘LOW’ setting – Use this setting when cooking very lean cuts
such as fish.
Actual cooking surface temperatures vary with outside
temperature and the wind conditions.
COOKING TEMPERATURES
Burn-off:
Before cooking on your barbecue for the first time, burn-off any
residual oils or foreign matter from the cooking plates.
ENSURE THE LID IS REMOVED OR THE HOOD
OPEN, and operate at ‘HI’ setting for approximately 15 minutes.
Allow to cool then wash grill / plate / pan thoroughly with soap
suds and scrubbing brush. Rinse thoroughly and wipe clean with
a cloth. Your grill / plate / pan is ready to use.
OPERATING PROCEDURE
If for some reason, igniters fail to produce a spark at the electrode,
barbecue can be lit carefully with a match.
Insert lit match or long-necked butane lighter through lighting
hole located on left side of barbecue body, after turning the left
burner control to the ‘HI’ position.
Sequentially light the remaining burners from left to right.

ATTEMPTING TO IGNITE BARBECUE
• CAUTION: DO NOT MOVE TROLLEY
WHILE BARBECUE IS IN OPERATION.
CAUTION: DO NOT LEAVE THE
BARBECUE UNATTENDED WHEN

LIGHTING PROCEDURES
NOTE: If any burners fail to light after several
attempts, turn off gas supply at source.
Wait until burners cool and inspect for obstructions to gas
flow. See also Safety instructions (page 3).
1. Always remove lid or open hood before lighting.
2. Set burner controls to ‘OFF’ and open the gas supply cylinder
valve. Wait 30 seconds before attempting to light.
NOTE: Upon first assembly the gas lines and
burners will be full of air. In order for the
burners to light properly the lines must fill with
gas. It may require several attempts at lighting
the burners before you are successful.
3. Turn burner control 1 or 2 or side burner to the ‘HI’ position.
Press the piezo ignition button until the flame appears on
the burner. Cross light to other main burners in sequence
from the lit burner.
(Plates, flame tamers removed to illustrate lighting procedure).
Preheating:
It is necessary to preheat the barbecue before cooking.
Operate the burner at ‘HI’ for approximately 10 minutes before
cooking. Hooded barbecues should be pre-heated with the hood
down.
After the pre-heat period, open the hood and turn off or
adjust burners as required.

OPERATION
16 16
The fats and juices that drip from the meat may cause flare-
ups. Since flare-ups impart the distinctive taste and colour for
food cooked over an open flame, they should be expected and
encouraged within reason. Nevertheless, uncontrolled flaring
can result in a ruined meal.
FLARE-UPS
Cooking with the hood in the closed position helps to cook food more
quickly than in conventional barbecues with a simple lid. The hood
(when closed) helps to retain the heat more evenly and conserves
energy.
IMPORTANT: Never use any burner or combination of
burners on ‘HI’ for extended periods when cooking
with the hood down.
High direct heat when the hood is down may result in burnt
food, or damage to painted surfaces.
COOKING WITH THE HOOD DOWN
When roasting in your barbecue, food should be positioned
over the centre burners either on a roasting rack with the cooking
pan underneath, or directly in the cooking pan, or placed in a
disposable aluminium foil dish on top of a flame tamer. Remove
other grill plate and hot plate not being used, and ignite burners
1, 2 & 4.
The heat from the selected burners circulates gently
throughout the barbecue, cooking the meat or poultry without any
direct flame touching it. This method greatly reduces flare-ups
when cooking extra fatty cuts, because there is no direct flame to
ignite the fats and juices that drip during cooking.
PRE-HEATING
With the hood open, ignite the burners as indicated. Once
ignition is established, close the hood. Leave the burners on ‘HI’
for 10 minutes or until the temperature reaches a suitable level for
cooking. Modulate the required temperature by turning the left
and right burners progressively to ‘LOW’.

Correction: Unscrew the igniter cap and replace the battery.
Refer page 123.
IF THE BARBECUE FAILS TO LIGHT
CAUTION: If burners go out during operation, close
gas supply at source, and turn all gas valves off.
Open hood and wait 5 minutes before re-attempting
to light (this allows accumulated gas fumes to
clear).
CAUTION: Should grease fire occur, close gas supply
at source, turn off all burners and remove food until
fire is out.
KEEP THE VENTILATION OPENINGS OF THE
CYLINDER ENCLOSURE FREE AND CLEAR FROM
DEBRIS.

Before initial use, and periodically, wash your cooking plates in a
mild soap and warm water solution. You can use a wash cloth or
vegetable brush to clean your cooking plates.
It is recommended the cooking plates be coated with a thin
layer of cooking oil on a regular basis to prevent rusting. Slight
rusting can be removed with a scrubbing brush before use.
CLEANING THE COOKING PLATES
Proper care and maintenance will keep your barbecue in top
operating condition and prolong its life. Follow these cleaning
procedures on a timely basis and your barbecue will stay clean
and operate with minimum effort.
CAUTION: Be sure your barbecue is off and cool
before cleaning.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Before initial use, and periodically thereafter, we suggest you wash
your barbecue using a mild soap and warm water solution. You
can use a wash cloth or sponge for this process. Do not use a
stiff wire or brass brush. These will scratch stainless steel and
chip painted surfaces (varies by model) during the cleaning
process.
CLEANING EXTERIOR SURFACES
To reduce the chance of fire, the grease draining tray and grease
receptacle should be visually inspected before each barbecue
use. Remove any grease and wash grease tray and receptacle
with a mild soap and warm water solution.

Periodically you should wash the flame tamer in a soap and
warm water solution. Use a vegetable brush to remove stub-
born burnt-on cooking residue. Dry the flame tamers thor-
oughly before you re-install them into the barbecue.

FAILURE TO READ AND FOLLOW THE
‘USE AND CARE INSTRUCTIONS’ COULD
RESULT IN A FIRE OR EXPLOSION
THAT COULD CAUSE SERIOUS BODILY
INJURY, DEATH OR PROPERTY
DAMAGE.
The stainless steel over time will be affected by ‘tea staining’ (the
brown discolouration of some stainless steel).
Tea staining can be reduced by washing the surface with
mild detergent and warm water. This should then be followed by
rinsing with clean cold water. We recommend the surface
then be wiped dry with a clean cloth.
CARE FOR STAINLESS STEEL SURFACE
IN COASTAL AREAS, FREQUENT
CLEANING AND THE USE OF A COVER
IS RECOMMENDED TO PROLONG THE
LIFE OF THE APPLIANCE.
SALTY AIR WILL ADVERSELY AFFECT
EXPOSED PARTS.
DO NOT USE OVEN CLEANER TO CLEAN
THE BARBECUE.
SOME PROPRIETORY BARBECUE
CLEANERS MAY AFFECT / DAMAGE
SOME OF THE SURFACE COATINGS
USED ON THE APPLIANCE.
READ THE CLEANER INSTRUCTIONS
CAREFULLY.
IT IS RECOMMENDED TO TEST IN AN
INCONSPICUOUS PLACE FIRST.
GENERALLY WE RECOMMEND ONLY
WARM SOAPY WATER FOR CLEANING
THE APPLIANCE.

• KEEP BARBECUE AREA CLEAR AND
FREE FROM COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS,
GASOLINE AND OTHER FLAMMABLE
VAPOURS AND LIQUIDS
• DO NOT OBSTRUCT THE FLOW OF AIR
FOR COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION
• KEEP THE VENTILATION OPENINGS OF
THE CYLINDER ENCLOSURE CABINET
FREE AND CLEAR OF DEBRIS
• VISUALLY CHECK BURNER FLAMES
OCCASIONALLY TO ENSURE PROPER
FLAME PATTERN AS SHOWN BELOW
• FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THESE
INSTRUCTIONS MAY RESULT IN A
HAZARDOUS SITUATION WHICH, IF
NOT AVOIDED, MAY RESULT IN
INJURY.
Burning-off excess food after every cookout will keep it ready for
instant use. However,at least every 3 months you must give the
entire barbecue a thorough cleaning to minimise your risk of
grease fire and keep the barbecue in top shape. Follow these
steps:
1. Turn all burner valves to the full ‘OFF’ position.
2. Turn the LP gas cylinder valve to the full ‘OFF’ position.
3. Disconnect the regulator from the gas cylinder. Inspect the
hose with regulator assembly for cracking, cuts or any
other damage, and replace as necessary. Refer to the Parts
List in this operator’s manual, pages 24 - 27.
4. Remove and clean the flame tamers, cooking plates and
barbecue burners.
5. Cover each gas valve orifice with aluminum foil.
6. Brush the inside and bottom of the barbecue with a fibre
pad or nylon brush and wash with a mild soap and warm
water solution. Rinse thoroughly and let dry.
7. Remove aluminum foil from orifices and check each orifice
for obstruction.
8. Check each spark electrode, adjusting as needed. The
space between the spark electrode tip and spark receiver
should be approximately 4 - 5 mm.
9. Replace the burners and adjust the gas collector box. The
edge of the collector box should be overlapping the burner
port.
10. Reconnect the gas source and observe the burner flame for
correct operation.
11. Replace flame tamers and cooking plates.

• BEWARE OF SPIDERS.
BURNER TUBES SHOULD BE
INSPECTED AND CLEANED
PERIODICALLY.
• SPIDERS AND SMALL INSECTS CAN
OCCASIONALLY SPIN WEBS OR MAKE
NESTS IN THE BURNER TUBES.
THESE WEBS CAN LEAD TO A GAS
FLOW OBSTRUCTION WHICH COULD
RESULT IN A FIRE IN AND AROUND
THE BURNER TUBES
• THIS TYPE OF FIRE IS KNOWN AS
‘FLASH-BACK’ AND CAN CAUSE
SERIOUS DAMAGE TO YOUR
BARBECUE AND CREATE AN UNSAFE
OPERATING CONDITION FOR THE
USER
• ALTHOUGH AN OBSTRUCTED BURNER
TUBE IS NOT THE ONLY CAUSE OF
‘FLASH-BACK’ IT IS THE MOST
COMMON CAUSE AND FREQUENT
INSPECTION AND CLEANING OF THE
BURNER TUBES IS NECESSARY.

We recommend that you minimise the barbecue’s exposure to
the elements. High moisture content in the air (rain, mist, salt
spray etc.) can affect metal components and lead to material
breakdown. If left in an area subjected to high moisture content,
we strongly recommend that you observe the cleaning procedure
on a regular basis and cover the appliance whilst not in use (covers
are available as an optional extra). Material breakdown from high
moisture conditions can be avoided if the appliance is well protected
from the weather and regular cleaning is carried out.
STORAGE

To reduce the chance of FLASHBACK FIRE you must clean the
burner tubes as follows at least once a month in summer and fall
or whenever spiders are active in your area, and if your barbecue
has not been used for an extended period of time.
NOTE: An intense yellow flame is generally a sign
that the burner needs cleaning.
1. Turn all burner valves to the full ‘OFF’ position.
2. Turn the LP gas cylinder valve to the full ‘OFF’ position.
3. Detach the LP gas regulator assembly from your gas
barbecue.
4. Remove the cooking plates, flame tamer plates and grease
trays from your barbecue.
5. Remove the screw from the rear of each burner using a
Phillips-head screwdriver.
6. Carefully lift each burner up and away from the gas valve
orifice.
7. Check and clean burner / venturi tubes for insects and
insect nests. A clogged tube can lead to a fire beneath the
barbecue.
8. Refer to diagram 1 and perform one of these three cleaning
methods:
METHOD 1: Bend a stiff wire or wire coat hanger into a small
hook as shown and run the hook through the burner tube and
inside the burner several times to remove debris.
METHOD 2: Use a bottle brush with a flexible handle and run the
brush through the burner tube and inside the burner several times
to remove any debris.
METHOD 3: Use an air hose to force air through each burner tube.
The forced air should pass debris or obstructions through the
burner and out the ports.
Regardless of which burner cleaning procedure you use, we
recommend you also complete the following steps to help prolong
burner life.
1. Use a fibre pad or nylon brush to clean the entire outer
surface of each burner until free of food residue and dirt.
2. Clean any clogged ports with a stiff wire, such as an open
paper clip.
3. Inspect each burner for damage (cracks or holes) and if
such damage is found, order and install a new burner. After
installation, check to ensure that the gas valve orifices are
correctly placed inside the ends of the burner tubes. Also
check the position of your spark electrode.
