BURNER OPERATION & IGNITION SYSTEM CHECK
OPERATING PROCEDURE
Burn Off Cooking Surfaces
Although it is not essential to burn off the cooking
surface before using your barbecue, we do recommend
seasoning it before use. Season your cooking surface
by coating lightly with vegetable oil and bringing slowly
up to a high temperature (do not use olive oil as this
burns off at a low temperature). For best use your
cooking surface should be seasoned two or three times
throughout each barbecue season.
Preheating
It is necessary to preheat the barbecue for at least 5
minutes before cooking certain foods, depending on the
type of food and the cooking temperature. Food that
requires a low cooking temperature, needs only a period
of 2-3 minutes preheating.
Cooking Temperatures
‘HIGH’ setting - Use this setting only for fast warm up, for
searing steaks and chops, and for burning food residue
from the grill plates after cooking is over. Rarely, if ever,
do you use the ‘HIGH’ setting for extended cooking.
‘MEDIUM’ setting (mid-way between ‘HIGH’ and ‘LOW’).
Use this setting for most grilling, and for cooking
hamburgers and vegetables.
‘LOW’ setting - Use this setting when cooking very lean
cuts such as fish.
These temperatures vary with outside temperature and
the amount of wind.
Do not smoke at any time when attempting
to ignite the barbecue burners.
Do not leave the barbecue unattended
when alight.
Refer to the Care & Use Guidelines for more detailed
information.
