Higher than the bowl 1. Close the gas supply
immediately and set all control
knobs to OFF.
2. Wait for 5 minutes to allow the
accumulated gas to escape.
3. Re-ignite the burner(s).
4. If this does not rectify the
problem, consult "14. Rectifying
problems" in order to identify the
cause.
10. USEFUL TIPS AND TRICKS
10.1. Pre-heating the appliance
Pre-heating the appliance ensures that the grill is hot enough
when you come to place food on it.
Proceed as follows:
1. Ignite the burner(s) and set the control knob(s) to HIGH.
2. Close the lid and allow the appliance to burn for ten
minutes.
3. After ten minutes, open the lid and place the food on the
grill.
4. If you want less heat, set the control knob(s) to
a lower heat.
10.2. Preventing food from sticking
To prevent your food from sticking to the grill:
• Oil the food lightly with a brush before placing it on the grill.
You can also oil the grill itself.
• Pre-heat the appliance. The hotter the grill when you place
the food on it, the less the chance of the food sticking.
• Do not turn the food too quickly. First allow it to
heat up thoroughly.
10.3. Grilling directly and indirectly
You can grill directly or indirectly depending on the type of
food that you want to cook and the way in which you want to
do it:
Method Description Use
Directly Place the food
immediately above an
ignited burner, choose
a high heat with the
control knob for the
burner, and leave the
lid open. Searing
meat and
vegetables
Indirectly Place the food next
to an ignited burner,
choose a medium/low
heat with the control
knob, and close the lid. Pre-cook meat
or further cook
seared meat.
If grilling with the lid closed, you must keep
an eye on the lid thermometer to ensure that the
appliance does not become too hot.
See "10.5 Checking the temperature".
10.4. Grilling with the lid closed
There are a number of benefits of grilling with the lid closed.
• The temperature of the grill will be higher and remain more
consistent.
• The food will need to cook for less time and will remain
more succulent.
• There will be fewer flare-ups and gas consumption will be
lower.
If grilling with the lid closed, you must keep an eye on
the lid thermometer to ensure that the appliance does
not become too hot.
See "10.5 Checking the temperature".
10.5. Checking the temperature
The appliance is equipped with powerful burners, which
means that you will be able to heat them up quickly, and can
maintain a constant temperature. However, if you grill with the
lid closed, you will need to ensure that the appliance does not
become too hot.
You should check the lid thermometer regularly and take the
following guidelines into account:
• A normal operating temperature is around 210°C. If the
temperature is higher, there is a risk of dripping and caked
fat igniting.
• The temperature must not exceed 300°C for more than five
minutes. If it does, there is a risk of the appliance being
damaged and becoming deformed.
If the appliance becomes too hot, allow it to cool by
opening the lid, and choose a lower heat for the
burners.
10.6. Using the heat zones
Once all burners have been ignited, the burner covers
distribute the heat as evenly as possible over the grill. Even
though heating is as even as possible, some zones will be
warmer than others. You can use these heat zones for perfect
grilling:
Zone Warm Use for...
For Warm Grilling delicate foods
(shrimps, fish, etc.)
Middle Warmer Preparing foods that need to cook for
longer (sausages, chicken, etc.)
Rear Warmest Searing meat and vegetables
You can also create heat zones by playing with the
power of the burners. For example, you could set a
burner at a lower level and use the zone above the
burner for delicate foods or foods that need to cook for
longer.
10.7. Preventing flare-ups
Flare-ups may occur when grilling.
This is a normal occurrence. However, an excess of flare-ups
increases the temperature of the appliance and can ignite
accumulated fat.
Preventing flare-ups:
• Ensure that the bowl is clean before you start grilling. See
"11.2 Cleaning the bowl".
• Check that the fat drain opening is clear at regular intervals
and/or that the fat drip drawer is not full.
• When grilling, cut excess fat away from meat, close the lid,
and set the burners to a medium or low heat.
11. MAINTAINING THE APPLIANCE
11.1. Cleaning the grill
We recommend cleaning the grill after each use with a
Barbecook accessory.
