THE EVOLUTION OF PORTABLE OUTDOOR COOKING
CLEANING & STORAGE
EXTERNAL CLEANING
Before cleaning the barbecue exterior, trolley and cover, ensure the appliance has cooled and is safe to touch. Painted
and plastic surfaces can be cleaned using a mild household detergent or cleaner and a clean cloth (do not use scourers
or harsh detergents). It is advisable to test cleaners on a small section of the appliance first. NEVER use paint thinners or
similar solvents for cleaning and NEVER pour cold water over hot surfaces. Dry the surface afterwards.
INTERNAL CLEANING
Before cleaning the internal parts of your barbecue, ensure the appliance has cooled and is safe to touch. The inside of
the hood can be cleaned by using some water, mild detergent and a sponge or mild scouring pad.
The non-stick coated surface of the hot plate should be cleaned carefully so as not to scratch the surface as above,
preferably when the surface is still warm. For hard to clean areas, use a little baking soda on a wet sponge. Note: The
non-stick coating will stain if food is burned into the surface. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
WARNING! The surfaces of the plates may be hot. Please ensure protective gloves are worn.
STORAGE
When the appliance is not in use, the cylinder valve must be turned OFF, the barbecue, trolley and the cylinder together
must be stored outdoors in a well ventilated area. However it is permissible to store the appliance (but not the cylinder)
indoors. Ensure the cooking surface is clean before storing away.
WARNING: STORE CYLINDER IN A WELL VENTILATED AREA OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN
When the gas cylinder is disconnected, replace the plug or cap on the valve outlet.
For extended storage it is suggested that the primary air port of the burners be covered against the penetration of insects
or vermin. Spiders and small insects can spin webs or nest in the burner rails/tubes, which could lead to obstruction in
the gas and air flow, resulting in a fire in an around the burner rails/tubes. This type of fire is called a flash-back and can
cause serious damage to your barbecue and create an unsafe operating condition. To prevent this, regularly inspect and
clean the burners. Use the supplied cover for extra protection, and to reduce this.
