OFF
positions.
Wait until the burner has gone out.
•
Turn off the tap on the gas bottle regulator.

BBQ
grill mats please ensure that the lid remains open throughout use to allow heat
dispersal. Please leave at least a 50mm gap between the edge of the grill mat and the edge of
the
BBQ

Maintenance
• Perform Maintenance at least once a year in order to extend the life of your barbecue.
• The hose should be renewed if damaged.
CLEANING
• To clean the barbecue, turn the burner on for 5 to 10 minutes. Grease will be burned off from
the grill as well as the Flame Tamer Plate.
• Ensure the barbecue is cold before continuing. The grill should be cleaned periodically by
soaking and washing in soapy water. Use a wire brush, steel wool or a scouring pad to remove
stubborn spots. Always rinse thoroughly with clean water.
• The interior surfaces of the grill housing cover should be washed with hot soapy water.
• Regularly clean the drip tray reservoir with hot soapy water. It is sited beneath the barbecue at the back and will be hot whilst the barbecue is in
use.
• Periodically check the burners to see that are free from insects and spiders which may block the gas system.
• Clean the venturi tube on the burner very carefully, checking to see that it is free of obstructions. We recommend the use of a pipe cleaner to
clean the venturi tube area.
STORAGE
• The gas bottle must be stored outdoors in a well ventilated area and must be disconnected from your barbecue when not being used.
• Ensure that you are outside and well away from any sources of ignition before disconnecting your bottle.
• When using your barbecue after a period of storage, check for gas leaks and for any obstructions in the burner before using. Also
follow the
cleaning instructions to ensure the barbecue is safe. Check that areas under the lid and flame tamer are free from any obstruction, (insect,
ingress etc.). This area must be kept clean, as it may affect the flow of combustion or air.
• We recommend you use a barbecue cover to protect this item when not in use. Ensure it is cool before the cover is used. Covers must be
removed periodically to minimise moisture build up.
