Operating the Barbecue
NB:
When using the barbecue for the first time, follow
the instructions below and heat the barbecue for about
20minutes without food so that the food-safe coating is
hardened (as with any barbecue).
Have heat-proof gloves, appropriate meat thermometer
and long-handled barbecue utensils (available from
most DIY stores and garden centres) to hand.
Starting up the barbecue
1.
Check to ensure the barbecue is in a suitable
position.
There are not, and will not be, flammable material
or substances nearby or any overhead
obstruction above and at the sides. Allow a
minimum of one metre distance to highly
flammable materials or substances, e.g. walls and
fences.
The barbecue is positioned firmly on a sufficiently
large, flat, solid surface area. It must not be
moved during operation.
Do not use the barbecue on a surface that may be
damaged by excessive heat.
Check to ensure the barbecue is fully assembled
and has no apparent faults, the grill has been
inserted and that the fat-catcher (drip) tray is
clean and underneath the fire bowl.
2.
Turn the regulator lever
(G2)
anti-clockwise to ON.
3.
Check to ensure that the gas system is sealed (if not,
turn the operating lever
(G2)
clockwise to OFF and
follow the Checking For Leaks section on previous
page.
4.
OPEN the lid of the fire bowl.
ALWAYS keep open while igniting the flame.
Caution
: Do not lean over the barbecue during step
6, 7 and 8. Keep a safe distance.
5.
Press in and turn a control knob for a grill burner to
position
(B)
anti-clockwise.
6.
When in position
(B)
, the burner will ignite.
7.
If necessary, repeat the above until the burner
ignites.
8.
Wait for a few seconds and then release the control
knob. If the flame goes out, turn the control knob
to
‘OFF’ position
(A)
, wait 3 minutes and repeat the
above for ignition. Repeat steps 6, 7, 8 and 9 to
light the other burners.
9.
Close the lid and allow the barbecue to heat up at
full power.
10. When the barbecue is hot, turn the control knob to
the appropriate setting.
11. Place the food on the grill rack using long-handled
utensils. Wear barbecue gloves or other heat-proof
gloves to protect from the heat.
12. Use an appropriate cooking/meat thermometer to
check the internal temperature of barbecued meats
have met the appropriate minimum temperatures
before serving. Meats not cooked through properly
can lead to illness.
Switching on the side burner
Lift the lid and repeat the above from step 5, using the
control knob for the side burner.
Lighting with a taper/long match
If the control knob is not igniting the gas, light it with a
long match or taper through the small hole in the side of
the body of the barbecue directly underneath the shelf.
(The lighting hole can be seen in diagrams 19 and 20).
It is the round hole nearest the control panel (not the
larger hole in the side panel). If the left hand burner is
alight the other burners will ignite when switching on the
control knobs.
