FIRST USE / USE AFTER LONG PERIODS - BEGINNING OF SEASON
•
Read Safety, Lighting and Operating Instructions carefully.
• Check gas valve orifices, burner tubes and burner ports for any obstruction.
• Check that the burner tube is properly located over the valve orifice.
• Check if the cylinder is filled.
• Set burner controls to “OFF” and connect the gas supply.
• Check gas leaks using soapy water solution.
• Open the hood before lighting.
TO MATCH LIGHT THE GRILL:
If the burner will not light after several attempts then the burner can be lit by match.
If you’ve just attempted to light the burner with the igniter, allow 5 minutes for any
accumulated gas to dissipate. Keep your face and hands as far away from the grill as possible.
Insert a lit extended match or lighter through the cooking grids to the burner. Press the control
knob and rotate left to the HI setting, continue to press the knob until the burner ignites.
Burner should light immediately. If the burner does not light in 4 seconds, turn the knob off,
wait 5 minutes and try again.
BURN-OFF PROCEDURE
Before cooking on your BBQ for the first time, burn-off any residual oils or foreign matter from
grill/plate/pan.
• With hood fully open, operate burners at “HI” for approximately 10-15 minutes.
• Turn off, allowing to cool, wash with soap suds and scrubbing brush. Wipe clean with cloth.
COOKING WITH HOOD DOWN
IMPORTANT: Never use all burners on “HI” when cooking with hood down.
• Only use burners as shown in the diagram when cooking with the hood down.
• Position the flame tamer, grill plate or cooking pan over centre burners. Close hood and adjust
burners to “LO”.
• Always open the hood before lighting.
• Check progress periodically.
