Leak Testing
• IMPORTANT – PERFORM LEAK TEST BEFORE USE
• NEVER use an open ame to test for leaks at anytime, DO NOT IGNITE THE BARBECUE DURING THE
LEAK TESTING.
• To be performed in a well ventilated area.
• Conrm all the control knobs are in the off position.
• Check for leaks by brushing a solution of 1/2 water and 1/2 soap over all the gas system joints, including
all valve connections, hose connections and regulator connections.
• Ensure soap solution has been applied to all connections – connect the regulator to the gas cylinder,
open the gas control valve on the regulator allowing gas to ow.
• OBSERVE – if bubbles form over any part of the joints there is a leak.
• Turn off the gas and tighten all joints
• Repeat test. If bubbles form again, do not use the barbecue. Please contact our helpline for
assistance: Phone: 00 353 (0)1 2873797 | Email: [email protected]
• Leak test annually and whenever the gas bottle is removed or replaced.
Gas and Regulator
• This barbecue can use either propane or butane LPG bottled gas.
• Propane bottles, will supply gas all year round, even on cold winter days.
• Butane bottles, will supply sufcient gas in summer. Butane gas must not be used in colder temperatures.
The regulator will need to be changed if using a butane cylinder.
Contact your local gas supplier for advice.
• The bottle should be positioned underneath the main barbecue body.
• Gas bottles should never be stored or laid on their side.
• Never store gas bottles indoors.
• For optimal performance, we suggest the following:
• This barbecue is intended for use with LPG bottled gas only. (A regulator of 28mbar must be used for
Butane gas or 37mbar for Propane gas.)
• This appliance has been supplied with a PROPANE REGULATOR (conforming to EN 12864)
• NEVER use an adjustable regulator with this barbecue.
• Please contact your local gas supplier for advice on suitable gas bottles and regulators.
Fitting Instructions
• This barbecue is for OUTDOOR USE ONLY and should be placed in a well-ventilated area.
• 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.
• This appliance must be kept away from ammable materials during use.
• Important – Do not obstruct any ventilation openings in the barbecue body.
• Should you need to change the gas bottle, conrm that the barbecue is switched off, and that there are no
sources of ignition (cigarettes, open ame, sparks, etc.) nearby before proceeding.
• Inspect the gas hose to ensure that it is free of any twisting or tension. The hose should hang freely with
no bends, folds, or kinks that could obstruct free ow of gas. Apart from the connection point, no part of
the hose should touch any hot barbecue parts.
• Always inspect the hose for cuts, cracks, or excessive wear before use.
• If the hose is damaged, it must be replaced with a hose suitable for use with LPG and meet the national
standards for the country of use. The length of the hose shall not exceed 1.5m.

Connecting to the Cylinder
• Conrm 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.
Use Instructions
Before proceeding, make certain that you understand the WARNINGS section of this manual.
• Preparation before cooking – To prevent foods from sticking to the cooking grill, it is recommended to
apply a light coat of cooking oil to the food before placing on the grill.
• Note: When cooking for the rst time, paint colours may change slightly as a result of high
temperatures. This is normal and should be expected.
Lighting the Barbecue
1. Open the barbecue lid and turn on gas supply at gas cylinder.
2. Push control dial in and slowly turn to “ ” position.
3. If burner does not light, return to OFF position and try again.
4. Once ignition has occured, hold dial in for at least 10 seconds to ensure the burner stays lit.
5. If burner does not light or stay lit after holding dial in for 10 seconds, turn the dial to OFF position
and wait for 1 minute and try again. Do not continuously hold the dial in as you may cause a build
up of gas.
6. In windy conditions shield from wind to ensure easy lighting.
7. Turn control dial to alter burner settings as required.
After ignition, the burners should be burned at the low position for 3-5minutes in order to preheat the
barbecue.
After completion of preheating, turn burners to low position and close hood for best cooking results.
Manual Lighting Instructions
• Remove the cooking grills, searing grill and vapour bar from barbecue.
• Place a lit match beside the burner (at the same location as the sparker shield)
• Push and turn the right most control knob anti-clockwise to the high position.
• After successful lighting, light each burner from left to right as desired.
• If burner fails to ignite after repeated attempts, contact the help line number stated in this manual.
Grill Cooking
The Vapour bar evenly distributes the heat across the cooking grill area. The natural food juices
produced during cooking fall onto the hot vapour bar below and vapourise. Even cooking of food will be
achieved by using the barbecue with the hood down. This should only be done with the burner on low.
Flare-Up Control
IMPORTANT – FLARE UPS CAN OCCUR FROM RESIDUE FAT AND JUICES DRIPPING ONTO THE
BURNERS AND HOT VAPOUR BAR. To reduce this, regularly clean the burners and vapour bar. To
control are-up, it is advisable to trim away excess fat from meat and poultry before grilling. The
burners should always be placed on the low setting during cooking. Always protect your hands when
handling anything near cooking surface of the barbecue.
End of Cooking Session
After each cooking session, open the barbecue lid, turn the barbecue burners to the ‘high’ position and burn
for 5 minutes. This procedure will burn off cooking residue, thus making cleaning easier.
To Turn Off:
1. Push the dial in and turn to the OFF position.
2. Turn the gas off and disconnect at the cylinder when not in use.
