Igniting the burners
Danger: gas deflagration upon ignition
If unburned gas accumulates, deflagration can
occur when igniting.
Possible consequences:
• This can cause severe injury or damage.
Precautions:
• Do not lean over the barbecue when igniting
the gas flame.
• Never re-ignite immediately if the flame goes
out, instead:
– Turn the flame regulators (A, 4 x B and C) to
"Off" to interrupt the supply of gas.
– Wait for 3 minutes to ensure that any accu-
mulated gas has dissipated.
– Then re-ignite the burners.
Operation
Starting up the barbecue
1. Check to ensure that ....
– there are not, and will not be, any flamma-
ble materials or substances nearby. Minimum
distance to flammable materials or substances:
2 m overhead and 1 m to the side; distance to
flame-resistant materials or substances: at least
0.25 m.
– the barbecue is positioned firmly on a suffici-
ently large area. Do not move it during ope-
ration.
– the barbecue is fully assembled and has no
apparent faults.
2. Open the lid of the grill unit; this prevents gas
building up underneath it.
3. Open the cylinder valve.
4. Check to ensure that the gas system does not leak.
If it does, close the cylinder valve immediately.
5. Make sure the Grease Cup (28) and the Grease
Guide (22) in the correcting position.
Caution:
Observe the maximum load of the shelves (see
Technical Data). Heavier loads can damage the
barbecue.

When you use the barbecue for the first time, heat
it up for about 20 minutes using the main burners in order
to allow the food-safe coating to cure (as with any oven).
Main burner and infrared back burner
Caution: Never run the infrared rear back
burner when the main burners are running.
1. Open the lid on the barbecue unit.
Keep a safe distance from the burners during the next
few steps.
2. Press and hold the ignition button of the pulse ignition
(D). A slight crackling sound indicates that the electronic
pulse igniter is emitting sparks. Press a flame regulator
(B or A) and turn it anti-clockwise to the "H" setting
("High").
If the gas fails to ignite within 5 seconds, turn the
flame regulators (5 X B or A) to "Off" position, wait
for 3 minutes and repeat this step.
3. Ignite the other main burners (B) by repeating step 2.
4. Close the lid of the grill unit and allow the barbecue to
heat up at full power.
5. Once the barbecue is heated up, turn the flame regula-
tor (B) to the desired heat output (flame size).
6. You can now place your food on the cooking grill or hot-
plate. We recommend that you wear barbecue mittens
or other suitable gloves for protection against the heat.
To switch off the burners (to extinguish the flame)
press and turn the flame regulators (B) clockwise to
"OFF".
The gas supply is not shut off until all the flame regu-
lators have been set to "OFF".
