OPERATION

WARNING! 

Before proceeding, be certain you understand the safety 
information contained in this manual. 

This barbecue is not designed to be used with 
more than  66% of the cooking area as a solid 
plate. Full coverage of plates will cause excessive 
build-up of heat and damage the barbecue.

NOTE: 

Before using the barbecue for the first time, the 
barbecue must be lit and burning for 30 minutes on the 
“low” setting.

IMPORTANT 

The  The regulator supplied with this BBQ may 
incorporate an Excess Flow Control Safety Device. The 
Excess Flow Control will activate to prevent gas flow 
should a regulator malfunction occur. It is important that 
the BBQ operator understands that all gas valves on the 
BBQ are closed in the OFF position prior to opening the 
gas cylinder valve. 

If the BBQ valves are open prior to opening the cylinder 
valve, the Excess Flow Control will be activated and 
prevent the BBQ from being lit. To reset, close the BBQ 
valves and gas cylinder valve, wait for 1 minute and use 
correct lighting procedure as detailed below.

MAIN BURNER AND SIDE BURNER LIGHTING  
(INTEGRATED IGNITION)

1.  Open the lid before igniting the barbecue
2.  Check all the knobs are in the “OFF” position
3.  Open the gas control valve at the gas cylinder
4.  The valves fitted to this BBQ include a safety feature. The

clockwise to the “HI” position until hear a “click” sound

6.  Repeat step 4, 3-4 times until the burner is lit
7.  If the burner fails to light, turn off and wait for 5 minutes, then 

begin from step 4

8.  Once a burner is lit, similarly light the remaining burners.
9.  Turn the knob anticlockwise to adjust the heat from High – 

medium – Low to your heat requirement. 

FOR MANUAL IGNITION (MAIN BURNER)

1.  Light a 90mm barbecue match and hold adjacent to the lighter 

hole at the right end of the barbecue. (Fig.1)

2.  Turn the right hand gas control knob to the high position.  The 

burner will light from the match.

3.  Once the right burner is lit, the burner next to it can be turned 

on and will light off the lit burner. Repeat until all burners are 
alight.

4.  Each burner can be adjusted. Turn the knob anticlockwise 

to adjust the heat from High - medium - Low to your heat 
requirement.

WARNING! 
Caution/Danger:

 Extreme care is required when 

cooking with hood in closed position. Frequent checks 
must be undertaken for the heat and temperature to 
ensure safe cooking.  

Too much heat can cause fire.

TURNING OFF A BURNER

Push in then turn each burner control knob clockwise to the “OFF” 
position.

TURNING OFF YOUR BARBECUE

When you have finished using your barbecue, turn off the gas at the 
bottle. Push in and then turn all the control valves fully clockwise to 
the “OFF” position. Wait until the barbecue is sufficiently cool before 
replacing the barbecue lid or closing its hood. Once cooled, a 
protective cover should always be fitted to the barbecue to protect 
your investment from the ailments when not in use.

WARMING RACK

Warming racks are a convenient way to keep cooked food warm or 
to warm items such as bread rolls. Always check that your warming 
rack is properly fitted before use.

GRILL COOKING

The burners heat up the flame tamers underneath the grill, which 
in turn heats the food on the grill. The natural juices produced 
during cooking fall onto the flame tamers below and vaporise. The 
subsequent rising smoke bastes the food, as it travels upwards, 
imparting that unique barbecue flavour.

COOKING AND USE OF HOOD

Barbecues equipped with a roasting hood give the option of 
cooking with hood closed to form an ‘oven’ for roasting food, such 
as joints of meat, whole chickens, etc. 
Do not cook with the hood down at a high temperature for long 
periods of time.
