LEAK TEST
PLEASE NOTE!
Never look for gas leaks using a naked flame! Before you
check for leaks, make sure that there are no naked flames
nearby and no sparks can form. Sparks or flames may
trigger an explosion that can cause serious or even fatal
injuries or material damage.
After you first connect it, each time you change the gas cylinder
or if the barbecue has not been used for a prolonged period, the
leak test must be performed on all gas-carrying components in
order to ensure that gas is not escaping from any of them.
If your pressure regulator has a manometer, follow the instruc-
tions in the guide for the pressure regulator to carry out a leak
test. To do this, use a standard leak detector agent and follow the
manufacturer’s instructions.
Performing a leak test by listen-
ing is not safe!
BARBECUE TIPS
1. Before you start barbecuing,
get everything together
that
you will require. When you barbecue, you should always have
an eye on the barbecue and the food being cooked and not
need to keep going in the kitchen.
2. Before you cook
meat
, it should be at
room temperature
to
ensure good, even cooking.
3. Use
clean grill racks.
The new food you are cooking will
stick to any residues on the grill rack.
4.
Food that has had a small amount of oil brushed on it
will brown more evenly and stick to the grill rack less.
5.
Rub oil onto grill racks
before you barbecue so that the
food being cooked does not stick.
6.
Always preheat the barbecue
with the lid closed so that
the food being cooked does not stick to the grill rack and
searing is possible. This will also burn off any residues from
your last barbecue. Even if you want to cook on a medium or
low heat, you should still preheat the barbecue.
7. Do
not place too much food to barbecue
on the grill rack.
Leave a sufficient amount of space between the pieces so
they can easily be picked up and moved.
8. If you are using a
marinade, sauces or glaze with a high
sugar content
or other ingredients which burn easily, only
spread them on
in the last 10 to 15 minutes
of barbecuing.
9. We recommend that when you barbecue
you keep the lid
closed.
This reduces the risk of flash flames and ensures that
your food is barbecued faster and more evenly. Do not open
it too often to check on the food being cooked to prevent too
much air getting in and heat and smoke escaping unnecessarily.
10. To make sure your steak has a great barbecue pattern and
a delicious crust, you must
not turn it too often.
In most
cases, the food being cooked should only be turned once,
and only when it is the colour you want it to be. This will also
prevent the lid being opened too much.
11. You can place food that has already been barbecued on the
warming rack
to keep it warm while you carry on barbecu-
ing. Please note that it will continue to be cooked a little. In
addition, you can use the warming rack to toast burger buns
or gently cook vegetables, seafood, etc. while you grill meat,
for example, on a high heat on the grill rack.
Direct vs. Indirect Grilling
Direct Grilling
This is the classic option in which the food being grilled is placed
directly over the burner. The level of heat is therefore high. This
means that this method is good for food with shorter cooking
times of no more than 30 minutes and for quickly searing burgers
or steaks, for example. It produces a delicious crust while the
inside stays nice and juicy.
Indirect Grilling
This is where the heat comes from burners next to the food being
cooked; the burner directly beneath remains switched off. At the
same time, the lid is closed so that the heat cannot escape. We
recommend this method of barbecuing for food with long cook-
ing times such as spare ribs, pulled pork or whole poultry. But fish
and vegetables can also be gently cooked in this way.
You can also combine both grilling methods: first sear the food
hot and then finish cooking it gently.
USE
Putting the Barbecue into Operation
PLEASE NOTE!
■
Burn off the barbecue with the grill racks and all accessories
that come into direct contact with food before you first use
them to remove any possible production residues. To do this,
heat the barbecue on the highest level with the lid closed for at
least 20 minutes. Clean the accessories once they have cooled
down. Also note the “Cleaning and Maintenance” chapter.
■
Only use the barbecue if all parts are in their designated place
and the barbecue has been assembled properly in accordance
with the assembly steps in these assembly and operating
instructions.
■
Each time before you use the barbecue, make sure that it
is undamaged and has been set up correctly. When you are
choosing where to set up, note the “Safety Notices” chapter.
■
Before each use, make sure that the gas cylinder and the
pressure regulator have been connected correctly and all
gas-carrying parts are leaktight (see the “Connecting the Gas
Cylinder” and “Leak Test” chapters).
■
Check the barbecue for any grease deposits before each use.
Remove excess grease and empty and clean all parts in the
grease collecting system to prevent any grease fires (see the
“Cleaning and Maintenance” chapter).
■
Do
not
line the grease collecting system or barbecue chamber
with aluminium foil or another type of foil.
■
The lid must be open during
the ignition process. Ignite each
burner individually.
■
If the flame goes out or a burner has not ignited, turn the cor-
responding control knob to the Off position. Wait approx. 2
to 5 minutes before trying again to allow the gas to dissipate.
Otherwise there may be a deflagration.
■
When you are igniting the gas flame, do not bend over the
grill surface as there may be a deflagration if gas builds up in
the barbecue chamber.
■
Never pour water onto the hot barbecue to avoid burns and
scalding.
1. Open the lid.
2. Make sure that all control knobs are in the Off position (arrow
on the control knob pointing upwards). If they are not, press
the control knob and turn it to the Off position.
3. Open the gas supply on the gas cylinder.
4. Each burner is equipped with its own ignition system and
so can be ignited individually: Press the control knob for the
