to the correct temperature.
In order to reduce food from sticking to the grilles, brush
the grilles lightly with cooking oil prior to placing any food
to be grilled.
In order to reduce the amount of grease catching fire while
cooking, remove any surplus fat from the meet prior to
placing it on the grille. Clean the barbecue after each use
to prevent the accumulation of grease and the risk of it
catching fire.
Important:
The barbecue is provided with a cross-lighting system
between the burners. This system allows automatic
re-ignition of a burner that is accidentally extinguished.
However, if the system were to fail, immediately place the
knobs to "OFF" (O). Open the lid. Wait 5 minutes to allow
the removal of unburned gas. Proceed again to the ignition
operation only after this time.
n) CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Never modify the barbecue: any modification may
prove dangerous.
After each use, remove the parts from the bottom of
the bowl (reflector, grease tray) and clean them using a
sponge and washing-up liquid. They can also be put in the
dish washer.
In order to maintain your barbecue in perfect operating
condition, it is recommended to clean it periodically (after
1 or 2 uses).
wait until the barbecue has cooled down before cleaning.
close the gas cylinder.
If the appliance has not been used for 30 days, also check
that the burner orifices have not been blocked by spiders
webs as this could lead to a decrease in the barbecue's
efficiency or a dangerous ignition of gas outside the burner.
Clean the holes in the venturi tube (see figure below) or the
burner, as appropriate.

- Grid and hotplate stand
To make cleaning this stand easier, Campingaz
®
has
invented Campingaz Instaclean
TM
. Thanks to Campingaz
Instaclean
TM
, the 6 parts of the stand can be dismantled
without the need for tools in less than a minute and can
be cleaned in a dish-washer. Depending on how dirty
these parts are, you may need to brush them before
putting them in the dish-washer for a more thorough
clean. For assembly and disassembly of these parts,
please refer to the assembly manual.
- Hotplate and cooking grid.
Your hotplate and cooking grid are enamelled.
Wait for them to cool before attempting to clean them.
Use Campingaz
®
BBQ Cleaner Spray and barbecue
brushes for cleaning.
You can clean your hotplate and cooking grid in the dish-
washer. It is often necessary to supplement this cleaning
by rubbing with a sponge or wire brush.
To remove the cast-iron hotplate,
slide your finger into the hole shown
below. Lift the hotplate and take hold
of it with your other hand.
To remove the cast iron, two-part
grid (see paragraph r ) Accessories
below), first remove the central
portion by sliding your finger into the
hole indicated below, then remove
the edge.
- Grease tray
Your barbecue is fitted with two grease recovery trays.
We recommend cleaning them after each use. They can
be cleaned in a dish-washer.
To make cleaning easier, the width of the grease trays
is sized so that you can cover them with a sheet of
aluminium foil available from the shops before switching
the barbecue on. After using the barbecue, throw the
sheet of aluminium foil away.
You can also put some sand into the bottom of the
grease tray to absorb the cooking fat. Throw the sand
away each time the barbecue is used.
- Heat reflector (W-shaped part)
You can clean this part in a dish-washer. It is often
necessary to supplement this cleaning by rubbing with a
sponge or flexible brush.
- Hood glass (depending on the model)
Clean periodically with a window cleaner or chimney
insert cleaner. In case of difficulty, remove the glass from
the hood and clean it with an oven cleaner.
For removing stubborn dirt, Campingaz
®
recommends
using steel wool soap pads.
- Metal surfaces around the burners
These metal parts are covered in aluminum. Never use
oven cleaners on them since this type of cleaner will
damage the aluminum.
- Ceramic parts
The ceramic parts are active components of the burner.
They turn red when in use. Do not clean, wet or rub the
ceramic parts since this could damage them.
- Stainless steel surfaces (lid…)
Clean these parts periodically using a sponge and
washing up liquid. Don't use abrasive products.
To revive your stainless steel's shine, use a special
cleaning product for stainless steel.
O) LID GLASS
(depending on the model)
Avoid thermal shocks (cold water on hot glass).
P) COOKING METHODS
Your
3 Series RBS
barbecue has been specially designed
to allow easy and comfortable cooking while maintaining
that special flavor that comes only from barbecue cooking.
Thanks to your 3 Series RBS barbecue, you can cook fatty
meats (sausage, merguez, chicken thighs, etc.) without
having to worry about sudden bursts of flames.
In addition, your 3 Series RBS barbecue is adapted for
rotisserie (sold separately) cooking that gives fast and
crisp results.
During cooking, fats drop onto the thermal reflector at the
bottom of the frame. Upon contact, the water contained in
fats evaporates and adds flavor to meat.
NB: To keep meat from sticking to the grill, simply coat
the grill with a bit of cooking oil or rub it with an oily paper
