Lighting the bbq (continued)
Checking the Flames:
Look underneath the barbeque so that you can see the flames.
They should be a soft blue colour with yellow tips. If the flames are too yellow, there is too much
gas and not enough air. The flame will be inefficient and will give off too much smoke.
If the flame is too pale, there is too much air and not enough gas.
If either of these situations occurs, then you will need to adjust the burners. Wait for the burners to
cool down, and then remove them from the barbeque (details in Care & Maintenance section). You
will see a screw on the right side of each burner. Screw it in to increase the yellow tipping, and
screw it out to reduce the yellowness of the flame. You may need to loosen the lock nut that keeps
the screw in position. Be sure to retighten the nut when you have finished.
If you are unable to set the flame correctly, you should consult your retailer before further use.
Special note: “Blowback” is a situation where the flame burns inside the burner, towards the front.
It can be recognised by a sharp roaring sound coming from the burner. It is not dangerous unless it
is allowed to persist. If this occurs, simply turn the burner off, wait a few seconds, then relight.
Turning OFF:
When you’ve finished cooking, leave the burner controls on
HI
for a maximum of 5 minutes to burn
off excess grease from the burner and other surfaces. To turn the barbeque off, it is best to turn
OFF
the cylinder first, and allow all the gas left in the hose to burn off. This will only take a couple
of seconds. Then turn
OFF
all burner controls. It is okay to leave the cylinder connected to your
barbeque while it’s not in use, but it is much safer to turn the gas cylinder
OFF
when it is not in
use.
If your barbeque is connected to natural gas or piped LPG, you can simply turn the burner controls
OFF . If you have a hose connection with a shut off valve, it is much safer to turn the gas supply
OFF when the barbeque is not in use.
Note carefully: Failure to follow these shutdown procedures correctly can lead to a hazardous
condition.
First time use
The main cooking surfaces: (hotplates and grills) are cast iron with a fused on matt vitreous enamel
finish. No “curing” is required, but you should give these and the warming rack a thorough washed
and rinsed with regular dishwashing detergent and fresh water before first use.
For ongoing protection of the cooking surfaces, follow the procedures in the Cleaning, Storage and
Maintenance sections.
