5. Important Information
Please read these instructions carefully
before assembly and use of your barbecue.
nRetain these instructions for future reference.
nThis product is for outdoors use only. Do not
use indoors.
nDo not use the barbecue or store gas bottles
below ground level. LP gas is heavier than
air so if a leak occurs the gas will collect at a
low level and could ignite in the presence of
a flame or spark.
nFor use with LPG bottled gas only. A suitable
regulator must be used for LP gas.
nRemove plastic wrap from any part before
lighting.
nDo not use within 1m of any flammable
structure or surface. Do not use under any
combustible surface.
nLP gas bottles should never be placed
directly underneath the barbecue.
nLP gas bottles should never be stored or
used laid on their side, in the horizontal
position. A leak would be very serious and
liquid could enter the gas line with serious
result.
nNever store gas bottles indoors.
nOpen the barbecue hood or lid before
lighting.
nOnce lit, do not move the barbecue until it
has completely cooled, after use.
nTHIS BBQ MUST NEVER BE LEFT
UNATTENDED WHEN LIT AND IN USE.
nThe hood or lid handle can become very hot.
Grip only the centre of the handle. Always
use oven gloves when cooking or carrying
out any adjustments to the barbecue.
nUse purpose designed barbecue tools with
long, heat resistant handles.
nUse caution when opening the hood (where
applicable), as hot steam inside is released
upon opening.
nParts of this barbecue become very hot –
care must be taken, especially when
children, elderly people, and animals are
present.
nTurn off the gas supply at the gas bottle after
use.
nNever cover a barbecue until it has
completely cooled.
nUse this barbecue only on a stable, flat
surface.
nBefore you use your barbecue, perform a
leak test. This is the only safe and sure way
to detect any gas leaking from joints and
connections of the barbecue after assembly.
nLeak test annually, and whenever the gas
bottle is removed or replaced.
nDo not store flammable materials near this
barbecue.
nDo not use aerosols near this barbecue.
nFailure to follow the manual’s instructions
could result in serious injury or damage.
nModification of the barbecue may be
dangerous, is not permitted and will nullify
any warranty.
nIf you have any queries regarding these
instructions, contact your local dealer.
6. Gas, Regulator and Hose
This barbecue can use mixed LPG (liquid
petroleum gas) bottled gas only. Check that you
have the correct gas bottle to match the
regulator supplied with your barbecue.
Do not stand the bottle on the wire base.
• The hose should hang freely with no bends,
twisting, tension, folds, or kinks that could
obstruct free flow of gas. Always inspect the
hose for cuts, cracks, or excessive wear
before use.
• Apart from the connection point, no part of
the hose should touch any hot barbecue
parts. If the hose shows any sign of damage
it must be replaced with a hose suitable for
use with LP gas which meets the national
standards for the country of use.
• The length of hose should not exceed 1.5
metres.
For optimal performance, we suggest to use a
9kg LP gas bottle. This appliance is supplied
with a 2.75kPa LP gas regulator of an approved
type.YOU MUST HAVE THE PROPER
REGULATOR AND BOTTLE IN ORDER FOR
THE BARBECUE TO OPERATE SAFELY AND
EFFICIENTLY. USE OF AN INCORRECT OR
FAULTY REGULATOR IS DANGEROUS AND
WILL INVALIDATE ANY WARRANTY. Please
consult your local gas dealer for the most
suitable gas bottles and regulators.
7. Installation
7.1. Selecting a Location
This barbecue is for outdoor use only and
should be placed in a well-ventilated area,
12
and on a safe and even surface. Never place
your barbecue below ground level. Take care to
ensure that it is not placed UNDER any
combustible surface. The sides of the barbecue
should NEVER be closer than 1 metre from any
combustible surface, including trees and fences
and make sure that there are no heat sources
near the barbecue (cigarettes, open flames,
spark etc.). Keep this barbecue away from any
flammable materials!
7.2. Precautions
Do not obstruct any ventilation openings in the
barbecue body.
Mount cylinder onto cylinder hook by slipping
the cylinder hook through the cylinder collar
and secure cylinder bottom ring with cylinder
retainer on the leg support.
Should you need to install or change the gas
bottle, confirm that the barbecue is switched
off, and that there are no sources of ignition
(cigarettes, open flame, sparks, etc.) near
before proceeding.
7.3. Connecting a Gas Hose to the Barbecue
Connect the gas hose to the gas rail inlet on
the left hand side of the barbecue. Do not
overtighten. Do not use any sealing tape, paste
or liquid on the connection.
7.4. Fixing a Regulator to the Gas Bottle
Confirm all barbecue control knobs are in the
off position. Connect the regulator to the gas
bottle according to your regulator and bottle
dealer’s instructions.
8. Operation
8.1. nWarnings
nBefore proceeding, make certain that you
understand the IMPORTANT
INFORMATION section of this manual.
nThe regulator supplied with this BBQ
is equipped with a safety mechanism
called an Excess flow valve. To avoid
tripping this device, which will prevent
full gas requirement reaching the BBQ,
it is vital that following actions are
taken prior to igniting the BBQ ;
1, Prior to opening the gas cylinder
valve, make sure all BBQ control
valves are in the “off” position.
2, Next open the gas cylinder valve ,
opening the first half turn slowly before,
then opening the gas tap fully .
nYour barbecue is not designed to be used
with more than 50% of the cooking area as
a solid plate — this includes baking dishes.
Full coverage will cause excessive build-up
of heat and damage the barbecue. This is
not covered by warranty.
nWARNING: This BBQ must never be
left unattended when it is lit and in use.
8.2. Preparation Before Cooking
To prevent foods from sticking to the cooking
surface, please use a long handled brush to
apply a light coat of cooking or vegetable oil
before each barbecuing session. (Note:
When cooking for the first time, paint colours
may change slightly as a result. This is normal
and should be expected.) During use, the
protective coating may come off the cooking
surface. This is normal and is not harmful.
Line the drip tray with aluminium foil, then place
a uniform layer of clean, dry sand, or even
better an absorbent material like kitty litter 1cm
deep into the tray. This will absorb excess
cooking fat, thus making cleanup easy.
8.3. Lighting the Barbecue
• Remove the lid or open the hood before
lighting. Never light your barbecue with the
hood or lid closed.
• Always ensure all BBQ control knobs
are in the off position before opening
the gas control valve on the gas bottle
slowly and smoothly.
• Push and turn the control knob of the
leftmost burner to the high position. Press
the ignition button rapidly several times until
burner is lit.
• If burner fails to ignite after following above
procedure, turn all the knobs to the off
position. Close the gas valve on the gas
bottle. Wait 5 minutes. Reattempt all of the
above steps. If the barbecue still fails to
light, please refer to the manual ignition
instructions below.
• After successful lighting of the leftmost
burner, ignite the remaining burners in
sequence from left to right. Confirm each
burner is alight before igniting another
burner.
• After ignition, turn the burners to the high
position for 3-5 minutes in order to pre-heat
the barbecue. This should be done before
13
each cooking session. The hood or lid
should be open during preheating.
• After completion of preheating, turn all
burners to the low position for best cooking
results.
8.4. Manual Ignition Instructions
• Remove the lid or open the hood before
lighting. Never light your barbecue with the
hood or lid closed.
• Always ensure all BBQ control knobs
are in the off position before opening
the gas control valve on the gas
bottle slowly and smoothly.
• Insert lit match through the right match-
lighting hole on the right side of the
barbecue body and place near rightmost
burner porthole.
• Push and turn the rightmost control knob
anti-clockwise to the high position, taking
care to protect yourself from the flames.
• When the right burner is lit, turn the
remaining burners on from right to left.
• Confirm that each burner is alight before
turning on the next burner.
• If a burner fails to ignite, contact your local
dealer for assistance.
• After ignition, turn the burners to the high
position for 3-5 minutes in order to pre-heat
the barbecue. This should be done before
each cooking session. The hood or lid
should be open during preheating.
• After completion of preheating, turn all
burners to the low position for best cooking
results.
8.5. Grill Cooking
The burners heat up the flame tamers
underneath the grill, which in turn heats the
food on the grill. The natural food juices
produced during cooking fall onto the hot flame
tamers below and vaporise. The subsequent
rising smoke bastes the food, as it travels
upwards, imparting that unique barbecued
flavour.
8.6. Griddle Plate Cooking
The burners heat the griddle plate directly,
which then cooks the food on contact. Griddle
plates allow for the cooking of smaller items,
such as seafood, which could fall through the
spaces of a grill. They are also suitable for
cooking items that require high-temperature/
short-duration cooking, such as vegetables and
smaller cuts of fish. Similarly, it can be used in
exactly the same way as a griddle in the
kitchen, for searing steaks, cooking eggs, etc.
Alternatively, it can be used for heating pans or
keeping food warm.
8.7. Roasting Hood Cooking
Barbecues equipped with a roasting hood give
the option to form an ‘oven’ for roasting or
baking food, such as joints of meat or whole
chickens, etc. More even cooking of food will
actually be achieved by using the barbecue
with the hood down. However, this should
only be done with the burners on low.
For best results, place the food you wish to
bake or roast on a metal baking tray and set it
on one side of the cooking grill.
Turn the burner directly under the food to the
OFF position and turn all other burners to a
LOW to MEDIUM position.
Close the hood to cook the food ‘indirectly’.
Avoid lifting the hood unnecessarily as heat is
lost every time the hood is opened. If the hood
is opened during cooking please allow extra
time for the barbecue to regain its temperature
and complete the cooking.
If the internal heat becomes too high, turn the
burners down to the low position. It is not
necessary or advisable to have all of the
burners on high when the hood is closed. This
would create an overheating risk.
DO NOT ALLOW YOUR BARBECUE TO
OVERHEAT. Take care when opening the
hood as hot steam can be released on opening.
8.8. Warming Rack
Warming racks are a convenient way to keep
cooked food warm or to warm items such as
bread rolls. It is advisable to place food
(particularly fatty foods) to the front of the
warming rack to avoid the possibility of juices
and fat running down the back of your
barbecue. Always check that your warming
rack is properly fitted before use.
8.9.Flare-Up Control * VERY IMPORTANT *
Flare-ups occur when meat is barbecued, and
its fat and juices fall upon the hot flame tamer.
Smoke of course helps give food its barbecued
flavour, but it is best to avoid excessive flare-up
to prevent food being burned. To control flare-
ups, it is ABSOLUTELY ESSENTIAL to trim
away excess fat from meat and poultry before
grilling, use cooking sauces and marinades
14
sparingly and try to avoid very cheap cuts of
meat or meat products as these tend to have a
high fat and water content. Also, the burners
should always be placed on the low setting
during cooking.
When flare-ups do occur, they can usually be
extinguished by applying baking soda or salt
directly onto the flame tamer. Always protect
your hands when handling anything near the
cooking surface of the barbecue and take care
to protect yourself from the flames.
If a fat fire occurs, please see the instructions
given below.
8.10. Fat Fires
Empty and clean the drip tray (and foil liner, if
applicable) of food debris after each cooking
session. If the barbecue is to be used for large
gatherings, it will be necessary to turn off and
cool the barbecue every two hours to remove
food debris from the drip tray (and foil liner, if
applicable) and clean it out. The time between
cleaning may need to be reduced if very fatty
foods or cheap meat products are being
cooked. Failure to do this may result in a fat
fire, which may cause injury and could seriously
damage the barbecue.
In the event of a fat fire:
• If safe to do so, turn all control knobs to the
‘off’ position.
• Turn off the gas supply at the gas bottle.
• Keep everyone at a safe distance from the
barbecue and wait until the fire has burnt
out.
• Do not close the hood or lid of the
barbecue.
• NEVER DOUSE A BARBECUE WITH
WATER. IF AN EXTINGUISHER IS USED,
IT SHOULD BE A POWDER TYPE.
• DO NOT REMOVE THE DRIP TRAY.
• If the fire does not seem to be abating or
appears to be worsening, contact your local
Fire Brigade for assistance.
8.11. End of Cooking Session
After each cooking session, turn the barbecue
burners to the “high” position and burn for 5
minutes. This procedure will burn off cooking
residue, thus making cleaning easier. Make
sure the hood or lid is open during this process.
8.12. Turning Off Your Barbecue
When you have finished using your barbecue,
turn all the control valves fully clockwise to
the “Off” position, then switch off the gas
supply at the bottle.
Wait until the barbecue is sufficiently cool
before closing its hood or lid.
9. Care and Maintenance
Regularly clean your barbecue between uses
and especially after extended periods of
storage. Ensure the barbecue and its
components are sufficiently cool before
cleaning. Do not leave the barbecue exposed
to outside weather conditions or stored in
damp, moist areas.
nNever handle hot parts with unprotected
hands.
nNever douse the barbecue with water when
its surfaces are hot.
In order to extend the life and maintain the
condition of your barbecue, we strongly
recommend that the unit be covered when left
outside for any length of time, especially during
the winter months.
Even when your barbecue is covered for its
protection, it must be inspected on a regular
basis as damp or condensation can form which
may result in damage to the barbecue. It may
be necessary to dry the barbecue and the
inside of the cover. It is possible for mould to
grow on any fat remaining on parts of the
barbecue. This should be cleaned off smooth
surfaces with hot soapy water.
Any rust that is found that does not come into
contact with the food should be treated with a
rust inhibitor and painted with barbecue paint or
a heat resistant paint.
A chrome cleaner may be used on chrome
parts if required. To prevent rusting, wipe
chrome plated warming racks etc. with cooking
oil after rinsing and drying.
9.1. Cooking Surfaces & Warming Rack
When the barbecue has cooled, clean with hot
soapy water. To remove any food residue, use
a mild cream cleaner on a non-abrasive pad.
Do not use scouring pads or powders as they
can permanently damage the finish. Rinse well
and dry thoroughly. To protect the cast iron
15
cooking surfaces, after clean and dry apply a
light coat of cooking oil to the cooking surfaces.
Due to the weight of the cooking surfaces, we
do not recommend cleaning in a dishwasher.
It is quite normal for surface rust to be present
on the cooking surface. If rust appears between
uses or in storage, clean with a soft brass wire
brush. Be careful not to damage the cooking
surface, re-oil and cure.
9.2. Burner
Provided that they are operating correctly, in
normal usage, burning off the residue after
cooking will keep the burners clean.
The burners should be removed and cleaned
annually, or whenever heavy build-up is found,
to ensure that there are no signs of blockage
(debris, insects) in either the burner portholes
or the primary air inlet of the burners. Use a
pipe cleaner to clear obstructions.
When refitting the burners, be careful to check
that the neck of the burner fits over the valve
outlet.
It is quite normal for surface rust to be present
on the burners. If rust appears between uses or
in storage, clean with a soft brass wire brush.
9.3. Flame Tamer
Remove any food residue from the flame tamer
surface with a plastic or wooden scraper or
brass wire brush. Do not use a steel scraper or
wire brush. Clean with hot soapy water and
rinse well.
9.4. Drip Tray
After every use, empty and clean the drip tray
(and foil liner, if applicable) of any fat or food
particles, using a plastic or wooden scraper if
necessary.
Failure to keep it clean, and excessive build up
can result in a fat fire. This can be hazardous
and severely damage the barbecue. This is
not a fault in the barbecue and is therefore
not covered by the terms of the warranty. If
required, the tray can be washed in hot soapy
water.
9.5. Barbecue Body
Regularly remove excess grease or fat from the
barbecue body using a cloth wrung out in hot
soapy water and dry thoroughly. Excess fat and
food debris can be removed from inside the
body using a soft plastic or wooden scraper. It
is not necessary to remove all the grease from
the body. If you need to clean fully, use hot
soapy water and a cloth, or nylon-bristled brush
only. Do not use abrasives. Remove cooking
surfaces and burners before full cleaning. Do
not immerse the gas controls or manifold in
water. Check burner operation after carefully
refitting into body.
9.6. Barbecue Hood & Trolley
Use a non-abrasive cloth or pad and clean with
hot, soapy water. Do not use scouring pads or
powders as they can permanently damage the
finish.
9.7. Fixings
All screws and bolts, etc. should be checked
and tightened on a regular basis.
9.8. Storage
Ensure the barbecue is properly cooled before
covering or storing. Store your barbecue in a
cool dry place.
Cover the burners with aluminium foil in order
to prevent insects or other debris from
collecting in burner holes.
If the barbecue is to be stored indoors, the gas
bottle must be disconnected and left outside.
The gas bottle should always be stored outside,
in a dry, well-ventilated area, away from any
sources of heat or ignition. Do not let children
tamper with the bottle.
When using the barbecue after extended
periods of storage follow the cleaning
procedures.
