OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Before lighting
1. Check that all gas hose fittings and connections are
spanner tight. Gas regulators that are fitted with a hand
tightening wheel should be checked to ensure that the
connection is secure.
2. Check that control knobs are in the Off position. Note
that when in the Off position the knob is locked for safety
and can only be operated by pressing before turning.
3. Open the roasting hood fully or remove the weather
cover/lid from the cooking surface before operating
the barbecue.
4. Clean cooking surfaces thoroughly before use.
5. Check gas supply. Turn on gas supply at either the cylinder
(for Propane / LPG) or shut-off valve (for Natural Gas).
‘Quartz Start’ ignition (models without flame failure)
1. Push in and hold the control knob down while turning
slowly in a counter-clockwise direction until the starter
mechanism engages at the two o’clock position. At this
time the gas will start to flow.
NOTE: There is a safety lock that prevents the knob from
being turned on accidentally. You must push the knob
incompletely to disengage the lock.
2. Hold the control knob in while continuing to turn the
knob to the High or twelve o’clock position.
3. The starter mechanism will click and the main burner
will now light. Continue turning the knob slowly until it is
in the twelve o’clock position.
4. If the burner is alight, release the knob.
NOTE: If the burner does not light, keep the control knob
pushed in and turn the control knob in a clockwise direction
to return to the Off position. Wait 5 minutes for the gas to
disperse and then repeat steps 1-4.
5. The control knob can now be turned to the desired heat
setting – Low, Medium or High.
The control knob does not need to be pushed in while
selecting the heat setting.
Lighting procedure (Flame failure auto shut off safety
system operating instructions)
Flame failure technology switches off gas to an individual
burner if the flame goes out. During normal operation the
burner flame is in contact with the sensor probe. If the flame
is blown out (e.g by a strong breeze) the control valve will
shut off the gas supply to the burner to avoid a continuous
gas leak. The lighting procedure is slightly different to the
quartz start above.
1. Push the knob in and slowly turn it counter clockwise
towards the high position until your hear a click. The
burner should ignite.
2. Continue to hold the knob in for 5-10 seconds to allow the
sensor probe to heat up.
3. Release the knob at the high position, the burner should
stay alight.
To turn off the burner
Push in and hold the control knob while turning in a
clockwise direction until the Off position is reached.
After use
1. Be sure to turn off all control knobs and cylinder valve
(for Propane - LPG) or shut-off valve (for Natural Gas).
2. Clean drip tray, griddle plates and grills if necessary.
Allow barbecue to cool before replacing the weather cover/
lid or any polyester barbecue cover.

left hand burner immediately through the gap between
the front of the drip tray and the barbecue body.
NOTE: If the burner does not light immediately, keep the
control knob pushed in and turn the control knob to the Off
position. Wait 5 minutes for the gas to disperse and then
repeat the lighting procedure.
2. The control knob can now be turned to the desired
heat setting- Low, Medium or High. The control knob
does not need to be pushed in while selecting the
heat setting.
To turn off the burner
Push in and hold the control knob while turning in a
clockwise direction until the Off position is reached.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Flame Failure - Auto Shut Off Safety System
Operating Instructions
For added gas safety, each burner of your BeefEater
Signature barbecue is fitted with Flame Failure Technology.
This safety system will shut off the gas supply to an
individual burner if the flame goes out for any reason.
How It Works
Flame Failure Technology switches gas off to an individual
burner if the flame goes out. During normal operation the
burner flame is in contact with the sensor probe. If the flame
is blown out by a strong breeze for example, the control
valve will shut off the gas supply to the burner to avoid
a continuous gas leak.
Lighting Procedure
The lighting procedure for these barbecues is slightly
different to the procedure described in the instruction book.
1. Push the knob in and slowly turn it counter-clockwise
towards the High position until you hear a click. The
burner should ignite at this point.
2. Continue to hold the knob inwards for 20-30 seconds to
allow the sensor probe to heat up.
3. Release the knob at the High position. The burner
should stay alight.
If the burner does not light for any reason, retry 2-3 times.
If you still have difficulties, do not proceed any further.
Contact your retailer for assistance.
Normal Operation
Flame is in contact with the
sensor probe.
Burner remains alight until
turned off.
If The Flame Goes Out,
The Gas Shuts Off
If the flame has been blown out,
the sensor probe automatically
shuts the gas off to that burner.
In the event of an automatic shut
off, simply re-ignite the burner.
