Check for possible leakage.
Please check for leakage the first time you are connecting the BBQ to the gas tank, and also each time
you are replacing the gas tank. To check for leakage, open the gas supply from the gas tank, but do not
switch on the burners inside the BBQ. The gas hose(s) will fill with gas. Then pour water with soap
over all connections. A spray, replacing the water and soap, can be obtained from the supplier. Any
leakage will result in bubbles within approx. 20 seconds. If a leakage is detected, tighten the
connection. If the leakage does not terminate, contact your supplier. Never use an open flame to search
for leaks!
Preparing the grill plate and the griddle. (Only applies to BBQs where this is made of cast iron).
This applies only to BBQs with cast iron. Other surfaces should be cleaned prior to usage. Use a
detergent to remove possible remnants of grease and/or oil from manufacturing. Wipe dry, then threat
both sides of the plate with cooking oil. Re-install the plates, turn on the burners and leave them
burning in a low position for 15-20 minutes, or until it stops oozing. Burning at maximum heat for
approx.10 minutes is recommended after each use, to clean the cast iron griddles. Remnants of food
and sot are then removed using a steel brush, which can be obtained from your supplier. NOTE: The
griddles should also be saturated with oil after usage and if the BBQ is not to be used for a longer
period of time. Failure to do this will result in a layer of rust on the surface.
Porcelain and Teflon
These grill plates should be washed with diluted soap water prior to usage; steel brushes or other
should never be used for cleaning. The grill plates will last longer if they are kept cleaned, and
remnants of food are “burned off” after each use.
Maintenance
Your BBQ should be kept clean not to deteriorate. The surface will need similar treatment to that of a
car, and the BBQ should be protected by a fitted cover when stalled. Clean the BBQ thoroughly on a
regular basis, and cover it with a thin layer of neutral oil (acid free oil). Oils used for sowing machines
or weapons are suitable. Movable parts such as the hinges, wheel nuts and doors should be sprayed
with a lubricant.
The burners also need maintenance. Keep these clean by brushing them, and assure that the holes are
kept open and free of dirt. If your BBQ has cast iron burners, these should be covered with cooking oil
a few times per season and always at the end of each season – before stalling the BBQ for a longer
period of time!
This paragraph applies to BBQs with a surface of stainless steel
Small amounts of surface corrosion can occur. This is not a defect and will not damage the product.
Stainless steel is simply the name of a certain quality of steel, and it is a common misunderstanding that
stainless steel could never contract rust. We will here attempt to explain the reason some customers will
experience oxidation of the BBQs surface.
Stainless steel has a higher resistance to rusting than other kinds of steel, because it is covered by a
layer of chrome (Cr

O

) protecting the steel from oxidation. This layer will to some extent regenerate
where the steel is damaged, contributing to the longevity of this material. To keep the surface of
stainless steel shiny, maintenance by thorough cleaning and saturation with neutral oil is important.
The addition of chrome to the steel provides stainless steel with the resistance to corrosion. When the
content of chrome exceeds 17%, a thin layer outer layer is formed, passively protecting the steel from
oxidation. This outer layer of chrome oxide is only a few nanometers thick, hence not visible to the
naked eye. If the steel is damaged, it will quickly reform, provided there is access to oxygen. The
chemical resistance of stainless steel increases with increasing amounts of chrome, but also with less
coal. This is why we strive to always keep the content of coal below 0.25%.
USING THE BARBEQUE
Ignition
Make sure that the gas supply is turned on. Do not lean over the BBQ when igniting the burners.
NOTE: The lid must always be kept open while igniting.
Be aware that the surface of the lid will be hot when using the BBQ, during which time only the handle
on the lid should be touched. The BBQ has an electronic igniter which emits sparks when the button is
