Familiarise yourself with the general information and safety
guidelines located at the front of this manual.
Check:
1. The cylinder is filled. A sloshing sound will be heard when
shaken.
2. The burner controls are in the ‘OFF’ position.
Connecting
1. Ensure cylinder valve is in its full off position.
2. Check for any damage to either the cylinder connection or
the hose. NEVER attempt to use damaged equipment.
3. When connecting the hose to the cylinder tighten the nut
to a positive stop by hand.
4. Open cylinder valve fully. If a leak can be heard at either
end of the hose turn cylinder off and tighten joint. Wait 5
minutes before re-testing and use a soapy water solution
to check the joint. If bubbles appear the connection will
need to be re-tightened.
Refer to P19 for more detailed instructions on connecting
the appliance to the cylinder.
Disconnecting
1. Ensure the burner control is in the ‘OFF’ position.
2. Ensure cylinder valve is in the full off position.
For storage and cylinder exchange, disconnect hose at the
cylinder only, DO NOT disconnect hose from appliance.
Regulator Safety Feature
All QCC regulators (the part that attaches to the gas cylinder
to regulate the flow of gas) have a safety feature included
that restricts gas flow in the event of a gas leak. You can
inadvertently activate this safety feature without having a
gas leak. This typically occurs when you turn on the gas
using the barbecue control knob before you turn on the gas
cylinder valve. If the gas regulator safety feature activates,
the barbecue will operate with reduced output as gas flow is
restricted.
These steps should be taken first to reset the gas regulator
safety device:
1. Ensure the barbecue hood is open.
2. Turn gas cylinder valve off.
3. Turn off all control knobs.
4. Disconnect the regulator from the gas cylinder.
5. Wait 30 seconds.
6. Reconnect the regulator to the gas cylinder.
7. Leak test the connection using a soapy water solution.
Ensure no bubbles appear before proceeding.
8. Slowly open the gas cylinder valve all the way. Do not put
excessive force on the valve at the full open position, to
avoid damaging the valve.
9. Light barbecue as per the instructions provided.
IMPORTANT: The appliance control knob must be in
the ‘OFF’ position before opening the cylinder valve.
Check performance of burner prior to installing
barbecue plates.
Do not smoke when attempting to ignite barbecue.
Never use volcanic rock, heatbeads or other
material.
Always use protective gloves when handling hot
components.
GENERAL ASSEMBLY
Connecting & Disconnecting to Gas Source
IMPORTANT: Before connecting and disconnecting
barbecue to gas source, make sure burner controls
are in ‘OFF’ position.
CAUTION: When the barbecue is not in use, the gas
must be turned off at the cylinder.
If re–ignition is necessary while the gas barbecue is still
hot, you must wait for a minimum of 5 minutes before
commencing to re–ignite (this allows accumulated gas
fumes to clear).
Note: If for some reason the ignitor fails to
produce a spark at the electrode, barbecue can be
lit by a long barbecue match or using the match
holder supplied. With hood open insert lighted
match into match lighting hole positioned at the
left side of the BBQ body. Push and turn far left
control knob to ‘HIGH’. Burner ignition can be
checked through this hole. Light remaining burners
by cross-lighting.
LIGHTING PROCEDURE
Before lighting your barbecue for the first time, read the
instructions fully to ensure the barbecue is assembled
correctly and is ready for use.
Remove all point-of-sale material from the barbecue.
Burner Operation & Ignition System Check
1. Open the hood of the barbecue before attempting to
light the burners.
2. Turn all the control knobs clockwise to “OFF” position.
3. With cylinder valve in ‘OFF’ position press the piezo
igniter button (a single click is heard). Check for
sparking to the burners.
4. If spark is not evident at the burner ignition point,
check that the ignition lead is firmly attached to the
control and sparker tip.
5. With sparking established turn the cylinder valve ‘ON’.
6. Push and turn control knob anti-clockwise to ‘HIGH’ and
press the igniter button again.
7. If the burner fails to ignite after several attempts turn
off gas supply at cylinder valve and the control knob off
(clockwise). Wait five minutes before attempting to
relight with ignition sequence.
8. Following successful ignition, to ignite remaining
burners, turn control knobs to the HIGH position
starting with the burner closest to the ignition burner.
9. Adjust the heat by turning each control knob to the
“HIGH”/”LOW” position.
10. To turn the barbecue ‘OFF’ turn the cylinder valve to
the ‘OFF’ position, then turn the control knobs on the
barbecue clockwise to the ‘OFF’ position.
Side Burner
1. Lift up the cover and ensure it is always open when the
burner is alight.
2. Push and turn the control knob anti-clockwise to HIGH
whilst pressing the piezo ignitor (a single click is
heard). This will light the side burner. Observe if the
burner has lit. If not, repeat this process.
3. If the burner fails to light after several attempts turn
the control knob to OFF and wait a few minutes before
attempting re-ignition.
