If burner fails to ignite after following above
procedure, turn all the knobs to the off
position. Close the gas valve on the gas
bottle. Wait 5 minutes. Reattempt all of the
above steps. If the barbecue still fails to
light, please refer to the manual ignition
instructions below.
After successful lighting of the leftmost
burner, ignite the remaining burners in
sequence from left to right. Confirm each
burner is alight before igniting another
burner.
After ignition, turn the burners to the high
position for 3-5 minutes in order to pre-heat
the barbecue. This should be done before
each cooking session. The hood or lid
should be open during preheating.
After completion of preheating, turn all
burners to the low position for best cooking
results.

Lighting the Charcoal Grill (For Charcoal
Grill Users Only)
Open the barbecue hood before lighting.
Never light your barbecue with the hood
closed.
Raise the hinged section of charcoal grill to
add charcoal to the charcoal tray. Turn
crank handle to adjust charcoal tray to
middle height position. Pour 2.5kg of regular
charcoal briquettes into charcoal tray and
arrange into a pile. Make sure charcoal does
not go above the charcoal grill.
Block Type Starters – Form charcoal in a
pyramid around it. Light the starter block.
When charcoal is well lit, using a heat
resistant tool, spread the charcoal around
the grid, adding more as necessary.
Liquid Starters – Place charcoal in a shallow
tin. Pour liquid starter onto charcoal and wait
5-10 minutes to allow the starter to
penetrate into the charcoal. Then using a
heat resistant tool, place charcoal onto the
grid in a pyramid formation.
Light the charcoal and allow time for it to
become well lit (red hot). Using a heat
resistant tool, spread charcoal in a uniform
layer, so that each lump is just touching.
When the charcoal is ashed over (grey
coating of ash over each lump), that you are
ready to begin cooking. Turn crank handle to
adjust charcoal tray to desired cooking
position.
It is recommended to operate the barbecue
with red-hot charcoal for at least 30 minutes
before use.
Do not begin cooking until charcoal has an
ashed-over coat.
Do not attempt to cook whilst charcoal is
flaming.
Grill Cooking
The burners heat up the flame tamer
underneath the grill, which in turn heats the
food on the grill. The natural food juices
produced during cooking fall onto the flame
tamer below and vaporise. The subsequent
rising smoke bastes the food, as it travels
upwards, imparting that unique barbecued
flavour.
Griddle Plate Cooking
The burners heat the griddle plate directly,
which then cooks the food on contact. Griddle
plates allow for the cooking of smaller items,
such as seafood, which could fall through the
spaces of a grill. They are also suitable for
cooking items that require high-temperature/
short-duration cooking, such as vegetables and
smaller cuts of fish. Similarly, it can be used in
exactly the same way as a griddle in the
