Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service or mainte
nance can cause injury or property damage. Read the instruc
tions thoroughly before installing this appliance. The installation
of your barbecue must meet all local codes and/or gas utility
requirements.
Keep any electrical supply cord and fuel supply hose away from
any heated surface.
Do not perform any servicing on the barbecue yourself. Call an

This barbecue must be installed according to these
Instructions.This appliance is for OUTDOOR USE ONLY.
Use in a well ventilated space only. This unit MUST NOT
be used in a building, garage or any other enclosed area.
This appliance should NOT be located under any
overhead, unprotected combustible construction. The
back, side and bottom of the barbecue should NOT be

Never place your barbecue near any combustible material,
gasoline or other flammable vapours or liquids.
Assemble according to 1-10 on pages 5-7
Check the gas type sticker attached to the barbecue.
Ensure the appliance supplied is suitable for the gas type
you require. Throughout Europe, barbecues use butane or
propane gas, please be aware that different types of gas
cylinder valves are in widespread use. The regulator must
be designed to fit the cylinder valve that you purchased.
Never attempt to force a quick-on connection regulator
onto a cylinder valve. It is much safer to contact your
barbecue supplier or gas supplier for assistance.
LP gas pressure regulators and hose assemblies must be
used without alteration.The hose must be inspected for
abrasion, wear or cuts prior to each use. If the hose or
regulator assembly needs to be replaced, use only the type
specified by the manufacturers of this appliance.
The regulation hose should be connected to the appliance
by fitting hose to the inlet connection. Please use a spanner
to ensure this conection is tight and no gas can escape.
Do not use thread tapes or sealers on these connections.

The hose should be fitted securely to the barbecue and
to a butane or propane gas regulator, using the
appropriate clips.
When not in use the gas cylinder MUST be turned off.
Never store your gas cylinder inside a building or in the
vicinity of any gas burning apparatus.When not in use,
gas cylinders must be stored outside in a well ventilated
area and out of reach of children.
Never allow the cylinder to tip over. The cylinder must
be installed in an upright position. The cylinder must
have a collar to protect the cylinder gas valve.Do not
store a spare gas cylinder under or near this appliance.
Storage of the gas cylinder under or near this appliance
and/or overfilling this cylinder may cause a fire resulting
in death or serious injury.
This should be done the first time you connect your
barbecue, and again every time you disconnect and
reconnect any fitting.
Turn the gas on at the cylinder but do not turn the
burners on. This fills the gas lines with gas. Now brush
or pour some soapy water onto the connections. If
there is a leak, bubbles should appear within about 20
seconds. If you find any leaks, tighten the connection. If
the leak persists, return to you place of purchase.
Never use a flame of any kind to test for leaks.
Lighting the barbecue is easy, but must be done with
due care.
Make sure that the gas is turned on at the cylinder.
Do not lean directly over the barbecue when lighting
the burners.
Ignition - Push the right hand main burner knob in
and turn anti- clockwise to the HI position. You
should hear and feel a “click” as the igniter creates a
spark to light the gas.
The knobs have 3 basic positions. You can achieve any
flame height between low and high by rotating the
knob between these positions.
When you’ve finished cooking, leave the burners on HI
for a maximum of 5 minutes to burn off any excess
from the burners and other surfaces.
To turn the barbecue off, it is best to turn off the
cylinder first, and allow all the gas left in the hose to
burn off.This will only take a couple of seconds, then
turn off all burners
To turn to high,

Turning off
Once the burner is alight, you can light the adjacent
burner by rotating the gas control knob to HI.
If the burner does not light first time, turn the gas
control knob to the off position and try a couple more
times. If the burner still does not light, wait a few
minutes to allow the gas to dissipate before trying
again.
Manual ignition - If for any reason your ignition does
notwork you may put a long lighted match to the
burner and then turn on the burner to get ignition.
We recommend the use of protective gloves i.e.a
barbecue mitt when handling particularly hot
components, i.e.kebab skewers, rotisserie, baskets,
griddles and stir fry plates, meat and fish baskets
etc.to avoid injury.
At no time should any parts sealed by the
manufacturer be altered by the user.
NEVER move the appliance during use, when lit or
hot

Lightly coat the cooking surface with oil. This will
prevent food from sticking.
Light the burners, and leave on low for about 3-5
minutes to warm the barbecue up. You’re now ready
to start cooking.
Take the cooking surfaces and wash them with mild
soapy water to remove dust and oils that may be left
over from manufacturing. Dry these off and then spray
a light coating of cooking oil on all surfaces, top and
bottom. Put them back into the barbecue. Now light
the Burners and turn to Low for 15-20 minutes.
Flare-up control: Flare-ups are sudden bursts of flame
that come up over the top of the grill. They are
caused by natural cooking juices from your food
falling onto the flame tamer and burning.
A little bit of flare-up, as well as the resulting smoke,
is a good thing. It’s what gives your barbecue food
that unique outdoor flavour. But if it happens too
often, or if the flame lasts more than a couple of
seconds, your food will Char, so you need to control
it.
If excess flare-up occurs it could mean either you
have too much fat on your meat (trim meat before
hand to avoid this) and/or the burners are turned up
too high.
Finally moving the meat away from the flaring will
help reduce the problem.
Keeping your food moist: It’s easy to keep your food
moist and succulent on a barbecue by following these
guidelines.
Use tongs instead of a fork when turning meat
and poultry. A fork pierces the flesh and causes
the juice to seep out.
Your barbecue will look better and last longer if you
keep it clean. You can do this by following these simple
steps.
The cooking surfaces. While the cooking surfaces
are still hot, take a long handled brass brush and
remove any remaining oil and food scraps. A Scraper
can be used on non-porcelain coated grills. You should
use an oven mitt to avoid burning yourself. DO NOT
use a scraper on any porcelain enamelled grill.
The Burners. Occasionally the burner holes may get
clogged with fat, marinades or food particles, leaving
the burners for a maximum of 5 minutes after you’ve
finished cooking will remove most of this. However, you
should check the burners periodically for any sort of
blockage. To do this, let them cool down, then use a
wire brush to unclog the holes. Check your burners for
insects and nests. Clogged or obstructed venturis
(throats of the burner) can lead to a fire underneath.
The barbecue frame. Fat can build up around the
sides and under the rim of the barbecue frame. Simply
clean it off with hot water and detergent. Do not use
oven cleaner as this will damage the surface coating.
The fat tray. You will have marinades, food particles,
etc.. That are going to fall through the grill, flame tamer
and finally into the fat tray. Therefore this should also
be cleaned after each use. FAT FIRES ARE NOT
COVERED UNDER WARRANTY

Hints while cooking
Cooking
Resist the temptation to keep turning meat over.
Juices tend to rise to the top of a piece of meat and
then settle. Each time you turn the meat on each
side (about half a minute) then with the burners
down near low, leave the meat to cook on one side
at a time, turning once only before serving.
