GAS SUPPLY INFORMATION
This appliance is only suitable for use with low pressure Butane, Propane, or LPG mixtures, fitted with
the appropriate low-pressure regulator via a flexible hose. The hose should be secured to a regulator
and the appliance with hose clips. This BBQ is set to operate with a 30mbar regulator when used with
Butane and Propane gas, and 30 or 50 mbar for LPG mixtures. Please consult your local bottled gas
dealer for information regarding a suitable regulator for the gas cylinder, and BBQ.
REGULATOR AND HOSE
•Use a regulator which is approved to EN16129 with the appropriate capacity (g/h), pressure,
working temperature and inlet/outlet connection for the country of destination. The life
expectancy of the regulator is estimated as 10 years. It is recommended that the regulator should
be changed within 10 years of the date of manufacture.
•The use of the wrong regulator or hose is dangerous, always check that you have the correct items
before operating the BBQ.
•The hose used must conform to the relevant standards for the country of use. The length of the
hose must be a maximum of 1.5 meters. Worn or damaged hoses must be replaced.
•Ensure that the hose is not obstructed, kinked or in contact with any part of the BBQ other than at
its connection.
GAS CYLINDER
•The gas cylinder should not be dropped or handled roughly. If the appliance is not in use, the
cylinder must be disconnected. Replace the protective cap on the cylinder after disconnecting the
cylinder from the appliance.
•Cylinders must be stored outdoors in an upright position and out of the reach of children. The
cylinder must never be stored where temperatures can reach over 50oC. Do not store the cylinder
near flames, pilot lights or other sources of ignition. DO NOT SMOKE NEAR THE CYLINDER(S).
•This BBQ is designed for use outdoors only, away from any flammable materials. It is important
that there are no overhead obstructions and that there is a minimum distance of 1m from the side
and rear of the appliance. It is important that the ventilation openings of the appliance are not
obstructed. The BBQ must be used on a level, stable surface.
•The appliance should be protected from direct draughts and should be positioned or protected
against direct penetration by any trickling water (e.g. rain).
Parts sealed by the manufacturer must not be altered by the user. No modifications should be
made to any part of this BBQ and repairs and maintenance should only be carried out by a
registered Gas Safe service engineer.
CONNECTING THE GAS BOTTLE TO THE APPLIANCE
•Before connecting the gas supply, ensure that there is no debris caught in the head of the gas
cylinder, regulator, burner or burner parts. Spiders and insects can nest within and clog the
burner/ venturi tube at the orifice. A clogged burner can lead to a fire beneath the appliance.
•Clean the burner holes with a heavy-duty pipe cleaner.
•Fit the hose to the appliance, ensuring that the screw fitting has been fully tightened using a
spanner. If the hose is replaced, it must be secured to the appliance and regulator using hose clips.
•Disconnect the regulator from the cylinder (according to the directions indicated on regulator)
when the BBQ is not in use.
•The BBQ must be used in a well-ventilated area. Do not use indoors or in a garage.
•ONLY USE THIS BBQ OUTDOORS.

14
CHECKING FOR LEAKS
BEFORE USE CHECK FOR LEAKS
Never check for leaks with a naked flame, always use a soapy water solution
•Make 50 –75ml of leak detecting solution by mixing ¼ washing up liquid with 3/4 water.
•Ensure the control dials on the BBQ are set to the OFF position.
•Connect the regulator to the cylinder, ensuring that all the connections are secure before turning
ON the gas.
•Brush the soapy solution onto the hose and all joints. If bubbles appear you have a leak, which
must be rectified before use.
•Turn OFF the gas at the cylinder after testing.
•If a leak was detected, retest the BBQ for leaks after taking the appropriate action to resolve the
leak.
•If leakage is detected and cannot be rectified, do not attempt to repair the leakage but consult a
suitably qualified technician.
LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
If any burner fails to ignite after a number of attempts, turn the control dial to the off position
(clockwise) and also turn the cylinder valve off. Wait for five minutes before attempting to light the
BBQ again.
LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE MAIN BURNER
1. Open the lid and make sure that all burners are in the OFF position
2. Connect the regulator to the gas bottle. Turn the gas supply to “ON” position on the
regulator. Use soapy water to check if there is any gas leakage between the Bottle and the
regulator.
3. Push down control knob and turn it anti-clockwise to the position, this will light the
burner.
4. If the burner fails to ignite, turn the control knob off (clockwise) and also turn the cylinder
valve off. Wait 5 minutes and repeat step 3.
5. Adjust the heat by turning the knob to the High/Low position.
6. To turn OFF the barbecue, turn the control knob on the appliance clockwise to the “OFF”
position and then turn the cylinder valve or regulator switch to the “OFF” position.
Warning: If any burner fails to ignite, turn the control knob off (clockwise) and also turn the
cylinder valve off. Wait five minutes before attempting to relight.

SAFELY USING YOUR BBQ
FLARE-UP CONTROL
Flare-ups can occur during barbequing, and are caused by fat and juices falling onto a hot surface.
Avoid excessive flare-ups to prevent food from being burnt. The flame tamers are designed to help
limit the amount of flare ups, but these must be kept in good condition and free of grease to be
effective.
To control flare ups, excess fat must be trimmed from meat and poultry before cooking, try to avoid
very cheap meat products as these tend to have a high fat and water content. Only use cooking sauces
and marinades sparingly.
If a flare up occurs, move food away from the flare up if it is safe to do so. Baking soda or salt can be
used to extinguish it. Always protect your hands when handling anything near the cooking surface of
the BBQ and take care to protect yourself from the flames.
FAT FIRES
Empty and clean the BBQ of food debris following each use. If the BBQ is to be used for a large
gathering, it may be necessary to turn off and cool the BBQ every two hours to remove food debris and
grease from the drip tray and drip pan. The maximum cooking time between cleans is dependent on
both the amount of food been cooked and their fat content. When cooking large quantities of food with
a high fat content, the BBQ will require more regular cleaning. Failure to keep the fat under control
may result in a fat fire, which is dangerous if it spreads to the gas hose. Fat fires may cause injury and
seriously damage the BBQ. This would not be covered under the warranty.
In the event of a fat fire:
•If safe to do so, turn all the controls to the ‘off’ position.
•Turn off the gas supply on the regulator.
•Keep everyone a safe distance away from the BBQ and wait until the fire has burnt out.
•Do not close the BBQ lid.
•never douse a BBQ with water. if an extinguisher is used, it should be a powder type.
•do not attempt to remove the fat until the BBQ has cooled.
•If the fire does not seem to be abating or appears to be worsening, contact the Fire Brigade for
assistance.

16
CLEANING AND CARE
All cleaning and maintenance should be carried out when the BBQ is cool and the fuel supply is turned
OFF with the gas cylinder disconnected.
OUTSIDE SURFACE
•Use mild detergent or baking soda and hot water solution. Non-abrasive scouring powder can be
used on stubborn stains, then rinse with water.
•If the inside surface of the lid has the appearance of peeling paint, baked on grease build-up has
turned to carbon and is flaking off. Clean thoroughly with strong, hot soapy water solution. Rinse
with water and allow to completely dry.
NEVER USE OVEN CLEANER.
INTERIOR OF BBQ
Burning off” the BBQ after every use (for approx. 15 minutes) will keep excessive food residue to a minimum.
Remove residue using a brush, scraper and/or cleaning pad, then wash with soapy water solution.
Rinse with water and allow to dry.
COOKING GRID
Use a mild soapy water solution and rinse with water. Non-abrasive scouring powder can be used on
stubborn stain.
CLEANING THE BURNERS
•Turn the gas OFF at the control dial and disconnect the gas cylinder.
•Remove the cooking grid and cooking tray.
•Clean the burner with a soft brush or blow clean with compressed air and wipe with a cloth.
•Clean any clogged parts with a pipe cleaner or stiff wire (such as an opened paper clip).
•Inspect the burner for any damage (cracks or holes). If damage is found, replace the burner.
•When re-installing the burner, check to ensure that the gas valve orifices are correctly positioned
and secured inside the burner inlet (venturi).
STORAGE OF THE APPLIANCE
The appliance must only be stored indoors when it has been disconnected and the cylinder has been
removed. When the appliance is not in use for a period of time it should be carefully packed for storage
