cooking with the Lid closed
Gas BBQs with lids enable gentle cooking of larger pieces of
meat and entire fowls, similar to an oven.
With a closed lid only a flame is necessary. Set the temperature
to a small or medium flame and close the lid.
AVoID EXcES-
SIVE HEATING oF THE BBQ.
Unnecessary opening of the lid
allows heat to escape each time and thus lengthens the cooking
time. You should therefore avoid opening the lid unnecessarily.
concluding barbecuing
As soon as the food has been prepared, the BBQ should be
allowed to burn for 5 minutes on a high flame. Residues on the
burner are thus burned away and cleaning is made easier. Make
sure that during this process the lid is opened.
Turning off the BBQ
To switch off the BBQ, turn the regulator on the gas bottle to the
“
off
” position. Then turn the temperature regulator on the BBQ
to
off. Wait until the BBQ has cooled down sufficiently before
closing the lid.
operating the charcoal grill
Danger Risk of burning!
The grill, the charcoal and BBQ meat become very
hot during use. Any contact can result in serious
burns.
– Keep away from hot parts as any contact can cause severe
burns.
– Always wear oven or BBQ gloves when grilling. (Glove Cat-
egory II with regard to heat protection, e.g. DIN-EN 407)
– Use long-handled BBQ utensils with heat-resistant handles
only.
– Do not wear any clothing with wide sleeves.
– Only use dry igniters or special BBQ lighter fluid in compliance
with EN 1860-3 to start the BBQ.
Lighting with a match
1. Open the lid and take the grill grate (B) out of the right-hand
firebox.
2. Place 1-2 solid fire starters in the center of the charcoal
grate. Observe the manufacturer‘s instructions on the pack-
aging. Light the fire starters with a match.
3. Layer a maximum of 0.75 kg of charcoal over the lighters
on the charcoal grate. Make sure the charcoal is inside the
charcoal grate.
4. Prior to first use, the BBQ must be pre-fired for a minimum
of 30 minutes at a temperature of 100°C - 200°C. See sec-
tion:
Before grilling
.
5. As soon as the charcoal has glowed through, distribute it
evenly on the charcoal grate. Use a suitable, fireproof tool
with a long, fireproof handle for this.
6. Rub the cooking grills with a little cooking oil before placing
them on the grill.
7. Only place the BBQ meat on the grill when the charcoal is
covered with a bright layer of ash.
8. Open the refill flap on the front to add charcoal.
Note: The charcoal grate is height adjustable. The charcoal
grate can be positioned at four different heights. Set the desired
height with the lift handle. Always use BBQ gloves when the grill
is hot to avoid accidentally touching the hot parts.
Maintenance and cleaning
Your grill is made of high-quality materials.
Please note: Stainless steel discolours at high temperatures!
This is not a defect, but a sign of quality!
Contrary to common opinion, stainless steel is not a hundred
percent safe from rust film and corrosion, and is therefore not
maintenance-free. Even the highest-quality stainless steels re-
quire regular cleaning with clean water and rubbing with cooking
oil, in order to prevent oxidation and corrosion.
Clean the BBQ after each use. To clean and maintain the sur-
faces, please heed the following instructions:
Danger Risk of burning!
Let the grill cool down completely before cleaning.
Danger Health risk!
Do not use any decolourants or thinners to remo-
ve stains. These are harmful to health and must not
come into contact with food.
Attention Risk of damage!
Do not use any strong or grinding solvents or abra-
sive pads, since these can attack the surfaces and
leave behind scrape marks.
Notes on the gas grill
•
After each use, let the BBQ burn for approx. 5 minutes with-
out any food on it. This reduces the food residues.
•
Set the regulator on the gas hose to the
off
position, before
starting to clean the BBQ.
Notes on the charcoal grill
•
Let the fuel burn out completely after grilling. This eases the
cleaning effort by burning away excess fat and BBQ residues.
•
Empty the ash drawer after the ash has cooled down. Re-
move the ash drawer from the back of the charcoal grill.
•
Empty the cold ashes and clean the grill regularly, preferably
after each use.
It is very important you remove the ash
before moisture comes into contact with the cold ash.
Ash contains salt and affects the inside of the fire bowl
when damp. Therefore the fire bowl can be damaged by
rust over the years.
Generally
To clean and maintain the surfaces, please heed the following
instructions:
•
Remove the cookings grills and inserts and clean them thor-
oughly in soapy water. Rinse the parts with clear water. Thor-
oughly dry the cookings grills and inserts and then reinstall
them on the barbecue.
•
Use a wet sponge to remove loose residue from the grill.
•
If a grease layer has formed on the internal surface of the lid,
this can be cleaned off using a strong, hot soapy solution.
Then rinse with clean water and dry completely before using
the BBQ again.
Warning! Never use commercially avail-
able oven cleaners!
