Connecting to the Cylinder
• 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.
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, apply a light coat of
oil to the food before placing on the grill. Do not apply oil to the grill.
• Note: When cooking for the first time, paint colours may change slightly as a result of high
temperatures. This is normal and should be expected.
Lighting the Barbecue
• Turn on gas supply at gas cylinder.
• Push control dial in and slowly turn to “ ” position.
• If burner does not light, return to OFF position and try again.
• Once ignition has occured, hold dial in for at least 10 seconds to ensure the burner stays lit.
• 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.
• In windy conditions shield from wind to ensure easy lighting.
• Turn control dial to alter burner settings as required.
After ignition, the burners should be burned at the high position for 3-5minutes in order to preheat the
barbecue. This process should also be done after every cooking session. IMPORTANT - The hood
should be open during preheating. After completion of preheating, turn burners to low position for
best cooking results.
Manual Lighting Instructions
• Remove the cooking 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 right to left 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 flare-ups, 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 the cooking surface of the barbecue.
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.

to all connections – connect the regulator to the gas cylinder, open the gas control valve on the
regulator allowing gas to flow. 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
