AREA
INSTALLATION
CABINET
PREPARATION
Firstly, all Island Gourmet Elite barbecues need to be kept under a
weather proof cover.
If you purchased an Island Gourmet Elite Cabinet, refer to page 10 or 11 for
the appropriate installation instructions for your model. Instructions for
installing the hood can be found on page 12.
The requirements and instructions for using your Heatlie Barbecue in a
purpose-built cabinet are outlined below.
The Island Gourmet Elite can be installed into a bench and bench top
which are made from combustible and/or non-combustible materials.
The Island Gourmet Elite can also be installed into a cabinet with zero
clearance between the Barbecue body and the cabinet panels, providing
the appropriate ventilation requirements are met.
Combustible Construction Materials
The Island Gourmet Elite has been designed to allow installation into
benches and bench tops manufactured from combustible materials. The
following are examples of combustible materials that can be used when
installing the Island Gourmet Elite: Timber, Laminate or MDF.
Non-combustible Construction Materials
Examples: Steel, Stainless steel, Caesar Stone, Granite, Brick.
Ventilation Requirements
A minimum ventilation area of 400cm2between the Barbecue and
open air is required, for both LPG and Natural gas applications. This
is the requirement for both zero clearance and non-zero clearance
installations.
This essential ventilation area of 400cm² can be located anywhere in the
cabinet. As an example, see Figure 1 which shows the ventilation holes at
the top and bottom of the Heatlie Island Gourmet Cabinet.
For example, if the back of your bench is against a brick wall and there
is no opportunity for ventilation in the back, the 400cm2ventilation area
will need to be placed somewhere in the front or sides of the cabinet.

A-0010-MAN Heatlie IGE Instruction Manual V5 Updated Feb 2022
Zero Clearance Ventilation
The Island Gourmet Elite can be installed with zero clearance between
the Barbecue body and the cabinet panels on either side. This would
require panels to be directly underneath the Barbecue and on the side.
Figures 2 and 3 clearly shows how adequate ventilation can be achieved
with a panel that has a minimum width of 860mm underneath the
Barbecue and a minimum height of 35mm on the side.
The minimum ventilation area of 400cm2needs to be positioned at the
base of the Island Gourmet Elite, at the same height as the base plate of
the Barbecue.
Before installation, refer to AS5601 for details on ventilation requirements.
LPG Gas Cylinder Compartment
When using LPG, the gas cylinder needs to be placed in a ventilated
compartment that is completely separate from the compartment which
houses the Barbecue. This compartment where the LPG cylinder is stored
needs to be ventilated at the top and bottom, with each opening at least
200cm². The upper edge of the bottom opening must not be more than
120mm above the base of the cabinet, as per Figure 4.
NOTE: This ventilation is in addition to the 400cm2required for the
barbecue (refer page 7).
Figure 5 shows the separate LPG gas cylinder compartment in the Heatlie
Island Gourmet Elite Cabinet.
A hole (maximum diameter 20mm) must be made in the unit to enable
the hose fitting to pass from the cylinder compartment to the Barbecue.
Refer to AS5601 for pipe sizing details.
Natural Gas
When the Island Gourmet Elite is connected to a main gas supply
(Natural Gas), a separate compartment is not required.
A 40mm diameter hole is required on the rear of the cabinet (on the
side which has the control knob) to allow access to the natural gas
connection. The hole should not be more than 40cm above the base of
the cabinet.
Refer to AS5601 for pipe sizing details.

Instructions for installing the optional Roasting Hood
(applicable to both IGE600 and IGE850)
1. Place the hood onto something soft to protect it from becoming
scratched.
2. Remove all the plastic from the stainless steel.
3. Remove the Barbecue plate. All screws on the internal back edge and
the screw closest to the back of the Barbecue on each side will need
to be removed using the tool supplied. Please see Figure 16. 6 screws
will need to be removed.
4. Place the hood along the back of the Barbecue, on the inside of trim.
Line up the holes in the hood with the screw holes from where the
screws were just removed. Screw into place, using the screws that
were removed. Please see Figure 17 and Figure 18. One person to hold
the hood and another to insert the screws.
5. Inserting the Barbecue Plate. After cleaning the plate (instructions on
page 15), insert it into the brackets on the side of the Barbecue body
by holding it vertically and sliding it into the bracket. Then gently
lower the plate down to a horizontal position with the plate tool,
ready for use.
CONNECTING
TO A GAS
SUPPLY
LPG Connection
If using Liquid Petroleum Gas (LPG), a 9kg bottle is required. Ensure the
correct ventilation requirements have been applied. For details, please
refer to page 7.
Connect the regulator to the cylinder. Do not over tighten. Tighten the
gas cylinder connection with fingers (right-hand internal thread AS 4637,
Type 27 CGAS fitting). The inlet to the manifold is via a ¼” BSP external
threaded elbow connection. Keep the gas line away from potential hot
surfaces.
Conduct a leak test (details below) to check for leaks after connecting to
the gas bottle.
NOTE: This is a low-pressure appliance and the pressure regulator must
be used.
If you have an IGE Cabinet, ensure the gas cylinder is securely held in
position using the retaining chain supplied.
An LPG barbecue cannot be converted directly into a natural gas (piped)
supply. Whilst the IGE can be converted, you will need to contact your
nearest stockist or gas fitter for details. This conversion will need to be
conducted by a qualified gas fitter.
Natural Gas Connection
Natural gas installation must be carried out by an authorised Gas Fitter.
Where the barbecue is supplied for use with natural gas, a hose fitting
complying to AS1869 is attached. This has a ¾” SAE internal threaded
fitting on one end and a bayonet fitting on the other for connection to
the fixed gas supply. To connect the bayonet fitting, push it into the fixed
connection and rotate it clockwise to lock into place. When connected,
check for leaks as outlined below.
Leak Test
With the gas connected, turn the gas on and perform the following test
to check for gas leaks.
Using soapy water, brush or spray over the joint between the gas cylinder
and the connection on the barbecue and watch for bubbles. If bubbles
appear, gas is leaking. The fitting may need to be tightened, or this may
be a result of faulty equipment.
Instructions for gas fitter: The installer must test the appliance for
satisfactory operation before handing over to the customer.

A-0010-MAN Heatlie IGE Instruction Manual V5 Updated Feb 2022
Cleaning the Barbecue Plate (Before first time use)
The Barbecue plate has a food grade protective coating on it to prevent
rust before use. Before inserting the hotplate into the Barbecue this
coating needs to be completely removed. Using warm, soapy water and
a non-scratch scourer, wash the hotplate until the water runs clear. If the
plate feels tacky to touch, wash again.
Repeat the cleaning process described above if the plate remains
“tacky”.
Plate cannot be left without oil on it, i.e. it must be seasoned once the
lanolin is removed.
Seasoning the Barbecue Plate & Grill Plate
The Heatlie Island Gourmet Plate is made of either mild steel or stainless
steel (optional) and both need to be seasoned prior to use. This will
reduce the likelihood of food sticking to the plate and ensure longevity of
the plate. This is a similar process to seasoning a wok.
To season the plate, first follow the instructions on Cleaning the Barbecue
Plate (above). This may have been cleaned prior to inserting the plate.
Rinse and dry the Plate or Grill. Apply a layer of vegetable oil or cooking
oil. Spread the oil over the Plate using a scraper or brush. Turn the
Barbecue on and heat for around 3 minutes. Turn off the Barbecue. Wipe
off excess oil with a paper towel.
Your Barbecue is now ready to cook.
Placing the Barbecue Plate or Grill Plate into the Barbecue
Insert the plate or grill into the brackets on the side of the Barbecue body
by holding it vertically and sliding into the bracket. Then gently lower
the plate down to a horizontal position with the plate lifting tool, ready
for use.
NOTE: If you are installing the optional Roasting Hood please refer to
page 12, before installing the Barbecue plate.
