After cooking
• After each cooking session, set the barbecue burners to the maximum position and allow them
to burn for 5 minutes. This will burn off any cooking residue and consequently help cleaning.
Make sure the hood is open during this operation.
• Always clean your barbecue after each use to prevent the build-up of grease that could catch
fire.
Switching off the barbecue
• When you have finished using the barbecue, turn all of the gas valves fully clockwise to the off
position and turn off the gas supply to the cylinder.
• Wait until the barbecue is cold before closing the hood.
4. CARE AND MAINTENANCE
• Clean your barbecue regularly between uses and especially after extended periods of storage.
Check that the barbecue and its components are cold enough before cleaning. Never leave the
barbecue exposed to the elements and keep it away from moisture.
• Never spray the barbecue with water when its surfaces are hot.
• Never handle hot parts without protecting your hands.
• To prolong its life and maintain the condition of your barbecue, we strongly recommend that
you cover it if left outdoors for extended periods, especially during the winter months. High-
strength tarpaulins and other accessories for barbecues are available from your local retailer.
• Even if your barbecue is covered for protection, it should be inspected regularly as moisture or
condensation may form, which could damage it. It may be necessary to dry the barbecue and
the inside of its protective cover. Fat residues may mould on parts of the barbecue. This should
be cleaned with very hot soapy water.
• Any rusty parts you find that are not in contact with the food should be treated with a rust
inhibitor and repainted with a barbecue or heat-resistant paint.
Cooking surfaces
• When the barbecue has cooled down, clean it with warm, soapy water. To remove food residue,
use a dish-washing detergent. Do not use abrasive sponges or scouring powders as they could
permanently damage the finish of your barbecue. Rinse and dry well. We do not recommend
cleaning the grills and plates in a dishwasher because of their weight.
• Remember that the use of icecubes, which may cause thermal shock and crack the enamel of
the plate, must be avoided.
• If rust appears on the cooking surface in contact with the food, it must be replaced.
Maintaining the burners
• Your burner has been set to provide maximum flame performance. You will normally see a
blue flame, that maybe has a yellow end, when the burner is lit. If the flame tends to be more
yellow, it could be due to debris or insects in the holes or tubes of the burner. This could cause
a blockage or restriction of the gas flow, which could cause a fire behind the control panel,
seriously damaging your barbecue. If this happens, and if possible, the gas must be switched
off immediately.
• The burner must be inspected, removed and cleaned regularly, at least once a year, in addition
to the following conditions:
• Removing your barbecue from storage.
• If one or more burners do not ignite.
• If the flame of the burner is too yellow.
• If the gas ignites behind the control panel.
• To clean a burner completely, remove it from the barbecue. A lightweight wire brush can be
used to remove rust from the burner surface. Use a pipe cleaner or a piece of wire to remove
obstructions in the holes or tubes of the burner, taking care not to enlarge the burner holes.
• You may need a torch to ensure that the inside of the burner tube is clear. Turn the burner and
tap it gently against a hard surface like a piece of wood to dislodge any debris from the inside.
