Assembly, Operation & Maintenance Instructions
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT:
Read the safety precautions of this booklet carefully before removing the barbeque
from its carton.
1. This charcoal barbeque is intended for
OUTDOOR USE ONLY
. Do not use indoors!
2. For your safety and enjoyment, read all operating instructions before using this
appliance.
3. This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above and persons with
reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge
if they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance
in a safe way and understand the hazards involved. Children shall not play with the
appliance. Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children without
supervision. Unsupervised children or pets should not be near a barbeque while cooking
or during warm up or cool down. Ensure children or pets are kept a distance well away
from the barbeque whilst it is in use. WARNING! Keep children and pets away.
4. Do not immerse the barbeque in water (only removable grills, charcoal chamber & grid).
5. As charcoal can smoulder for an extended period of time, take care when removing ash
after cooking. It is recommended that a non-combustible container (metal or ceramic)
be used to contain any ash before being doused in water and disposed of correctly.
6. This barbeque has been designed to be used either on a raised bench or the ground.
Ensure the surface is level, large enough and strong enough to support the barbeque
and will withstand temperatures of 80°C above ambient temperature. It’s highly
recommended to use a heat resistant barrier such as a ceramic tile, in order to avoid
surface damage.
7. People with flammable clothing such as nylon etc. should keep well away from the
barbeque when it is operating.
8. Do not use this appliance for any purpose other than what it is intended for.
9. In case of fat fire, remove food (if possible) and allow the fire to burn out naturally.
Most fat will burn off quickly when it contacts the charcoal, but regular cleaning after
use should reduce the build-up of fat and food residues which are combustible and can
result in a fat fire.
Fat fires can be prevented with diligence in cleaning fats and
oil from the inner chassis and charcoal chamber.
Do not allow ash to build up
inside the chassis – clean up after every use. For more information on controlling fat
fires see the Quick User Guide.
10. Ensure that the product has adequate clearance from combustible materials. All
combustible materials must be kept more than 250mm from the sides and rear of the
barbeque and more than 1500mm above the cooking surface of the barbeque. This
appliance is not meant to be built-in.
11. As charcoal cooking can vary in time and intensity, it is recommended that the barbeque
not be left for more than 5 minutes at a time while cooking.
12. We recommend that you regularly maintain your barbeque and keep it in good condition.
This can be achieved by following the cleaning and maintenance suggestions in this
booklet. Failure to follow these instructions will void your warranty.
13. This appliance is not suitable for mounting in a movable vehicle (boat, trailer etc).
14. Do not use or store this appliance in areas of high salt content (a marine environment)
or an area with caustic fumes or liquids (such as a domestic pool), as these chemicals
can cause the appliance materials to deteriorate (and void the warranty). Regular
cleaning and covering when not in use can help can help to reduce this.
15. Caution: Accessible parts may become hot when used. Whilst the barbeque handles
are cool to touch, please be aware that the sides of the barbeque may be hot - handle
with care.
16. Charcoal and coal products produce carbon monoxide when burned. When the
appliance is being used with solid fuels, always keep the appliance in a well ventilated
area to prevent the gasses produced from building up.
17. Do not use solid fuels impregnated with fire accelerants or use any other type of
accelerant on this appliance. Using any accelerant could cause serious property damage
or personal injury. WARNING! Do not use spirit or petrol for lighting or re-lighting! Only
use firelighters complying to EN 1860-3!
18. During ignition, follow the recommended charcoal area placement guide. Once the
initial batch of charcoal has ignited, it can be mixed in with fresh charcoal and spread
throughout the charcoal chamber. Overloading the charcoal chamber can result in
damage to the appliance and food – it is recommended that the height of the charcoal
never passes the top level of the charcoal chamber. For more information on charcoal
placement, see further on in the instruction manual and the Quick User Guide.
