d. Manual Ignition Instructions
•
Insert lit match through the match-lighting
hole on the right side of the barbecue.
•
Push and turn the rightmost control knob
anti-clockwise to the high position.
•
After the right portion of the burner is lit,
light the remaining portion of the burner.
•
If burner fails to ignite, contact your local
dealer for assistance.
•
After ignition, the burner should be
burned at the high position for 3-5
minutes in order to preheat the barbecue.
This process should be done before
every cooking session. The hood (where
applicable) should be open during
preheating.
•
After completion of preheating, turn the
burner to the low position for best
cooking results
e. Grill Cooking
The burner heats up the lava rock underneath
the grill, which in turn heats the food on the
grill. The natural food juices produced during
cooking fall onto the hot lava rock below and
vaporise. The subsequent rising smoke
bastes the food, as it travels upwards,
imparting that unique barbecued flavour.
More even cooking of food will be achieved
by using the BBQ with the hood down. This
should only be done with the burners on low.
f. Roasting Hood Cooking
Barbecues equipped with a roasting hood
give the option of cooking with hood closed to
form an ‘oven’ for roasting food, such as joints
of meat, whole chickens, etc.
When the hood is closed, a large amount of
heat is trapped inside the barbecue. Thus, it
is IMPORTANT to make sure that the burner
is turned to the low position to prevent
burning of the food and damaging the
barbecue. Avoid lifting the hood unnecessarily
as heat is lost every time the hood is opened.
DO NOT ALLOW YOUR BARBECUE TO
OVERHEAT.
g. Flare-Up Control
Flare-ups occur when meat is barbecued, and
its fat and juices fall upon the hot lava rock.
Smoke helps give food its barbecued flavour,
but avoid excessive flare-up to prevent food
being burned. To control flare-up, it is
advisable to trim away excess fat from meat
and poultry before grilling. The burner should
always be placed on the low setting during
cooking. Flare-ups can be extinguished by
applying baking soda or salt directly onto the
lava rocks. Always protect your hands when
handling anything near the cooking surface of
the barbecue.
h. End of Cooking Session
After each cooking session, turn the barbecue
burner to the “high” position and burn for 5
minutes. This procedure will burn off cooking
residue, thus making cleaning easier. Make
sure the hood is open during this process.
i. Turning Off Your Barbecue
When you have finished using your barbecue,
turn all the control valves fully clockwise to
the “Off” position, then switch off the gas at
the bottle. Wait until the barbecue is
sufficiently cool before closing its hood.

MAINTENANCE
Regularly clean your barbecue between uses
and especially after extended periods of
storage. Ensure the barbecue and its
components are sufficiently cool before
cleaning. Do not leave the barbecue exposed
to outside weather conditions or stored in
damp, moist areas.
•
Never douse the barbecue with water
when its surfaces are hot.
•
Never handle hot parts with unprotected
hands.
In order to extend the life and maintain the
condition of your barbecue, we strongly
recommend that the unit be covered when left
outside for any length of time, especially
during the winter months.
a. Cooking Grill
Clean with hot soapy water. To remove any
food residue, use a mild cream cleaner on a
non-abrasive pad. Rinse well and dry
thoroughly.
b. Burner Maintenance
In normal usage, burning off the residue after
