INSTALLATION
SELECTING A LOCATION
This barbecue is for outdoor use only and should be placed in a well-ventilated area. Take care to ensure that it is not placed under
any combustible surface. The sides of the barbecue should NEVER be closer than 1metre from any combustible surface. Keep this
barbecue away from any flammable materials!
PRECAUTIONS
Do not obstruct any ventilation openings in the barbecue body. Position the gas supply bottle on level ground next to the barbecue
and safely away from any source of heat. Should you need to change the gas bottle, confirm that the barbecue is switched off, and
that there are no sources of ignition (cigarettes, open flame, sparks, etc.) near before proceeding. Inspect the gas hose to ensure
it is free of any twisting or tension. The hose should hang freely with no bends, folds, or kinks that could obstruct free flow of gas.
Apart from the connection point, no part of the hose should touch any hot barbecue parts. Always inspect the hose for cuts, cracks,
or excessive wear before use. If the hose is damaged, it must be replaced with hose suitable for use with LPG and meet the national
standards for the country of use. The length of the hose shall not exceed 1.5m.
FIXING THE REGULATOR TO THE GAS BOTTLE
Confirm all barbecue control knobs are in the off position. Connect the regulator to the gas bottle according to your regulator and
bottle dealer’s instructions.
LEAK TESTING (TO BE PERFORMED IN A WELL-VENTILATED AREA.)
Confirm all control knobs are in the off position. Open the gas control valve on the bottle or regulator. Check for leaks by brushing
a solution of 1/2water and 1/2soap over all gas system joints, including all valve connections, hose connections and regulator con-
nections. NEVER USE AN OPEN FLAME to test for leaks at any time. If bubbles form over any of the joints, there is a leak. Turn off
the gas supply and retighten all joints. Repeat test. If bubbles form again, do not use the barbecue. Please contact your local dealer
for assistance. Leak test annually, and whenever the gas bottle is removed or replaced.
OPERATION
WARNINGS
• Before proceeding, make certain that you understand the IMPORTANT INFORMATION section of this manual.
• This barbecue is not designed to be used with more than 70% of the cooking area as a solid plate. Full coverage of plates will
cause excessive build-up of heat and damage the barbecue.
PREPARATION BEFORE COOKING
To prevent foods from sticking to the cooking grill, please use a long handled brush to apply a light coat of cooking or vegetable oil
before each barbecuing session. (Note: When cooking for the first time, paint colours may change slightly as a result. This is normal
and should be expected.)
LIGHTING THE BARBECUE
• Read all instructions before igniting the burners.
• Open the cover while igniting.
• Turn all knobs to “OFF” and open the gas tap of the gas cylinder. Keep your face and body as far as possible from the BBQ when
igniting it.
• Always start to light the middle burner first.
• Press & turn the middle control knob slowly to the “high” position. The built-in igniter clicks & the middle burner will be ignited.
• If the burner does not ignite within 5 seconds, IMMEDIATELY turn the control knob to OFF, wait for 5 minutes until all gas has
disappeared and repeat the ignition procedure.
• The right and left hand control knob will light automatically when turning the knob to the “high” position.
• After ignition, the burner should be burned at the high position for 3-5 minutes in order to preheat the barbecue. This process
should be done before every cooking session. The hood should be open during preheating.
• After completion of preheating, turn all control knobs to the low position for the best cooking results.
