F. Installation
F1. Selecting a Location
This barbecue is for outdoor use only and should be placed in a well-ventilated area. Take care to ensure that it is not placed UNDER any combustible surface. The sides of the barbecue should NEVER be closer than 1 metre from any combustible surface. Keep this barbecue away from any flammable materials!
F2. Precautions
Do not obstruct any ventilation openings in the barbecue body. Secure the gas bottle on the cylinder holder and always tighten it with the black strap provided. Should you need to change the gas bottle, confirm that the barbecue is switched off, and that there are no sources of ignition (cigarettes, open flame, sparks, etc.) near before proceeding. Inspect the gas hose to ensure it is free of any twisting or tension. The hose should hang freely with no bends, folds, or kinks that could obstruct free flow of gas. Apart from the connection point, no part of the hose should touch any hot barbecue parts. Always inspect the hose for cuts, cracks, or excessive wear before use. If the hose is damaged, it must be replaced with hose suitable for use with LPG and meet the national standards for the country of use. The length of the hose shall not exceed 1.5m. N.B.-The date on U.K.

G. Operation
G1. Warning
Before proceeding, make certain that you understand the IMPORTANT INFORMATION section of this manual.
G2. Preparation Before Cooking
To prevent foods from sticking to the cooking grill, please use a long handled brush to apply a light coat of cooking or vegetable oil before each barbecuing session. (Note: When cooking for the first time,
paint colours may change slightly as a result. This is normal and should be expected.)
G3. Lighting the Main Burner
Open the barbecue hood.
Ensure all knobs are in the off position. Open the
gas control valve on the gas bottle or regulator.
Push in and turn the burner control knob to the Max position. Press the ignition button rapidly several times until left portion of the burner is lit. If burner fails to ignite, turn control knob to the off position and turn gas off at the bottle or regulator. Wait five minutes, then repeat the above steps. After successful lighting of the left side, ignite the remaining portion of the burner. If the 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, then repeat the above steps. If the barbecue still fails to light, please refer to the manual ignition instruction in the section below.
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, the burner should normally be turned down to a lower position for best cooking results.
G4. Manual Ignition Instruction for Main Burner
Insert lit match through the match-lighting hole at the bottom of the barbecue body.
Push in and turn the rightmost control knob anti­clockwise to the max 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 max 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, the burner should normally be turned down to a lower position for best cooking results.
G5. Lighting the Side Burner
Keep side burner free.
Set the control knob to off and turn on the gas
supply.
Push in and turn the control knob anti-clockwise to max position.
Push the ignition button several times and the burner should ignite.
If the burner fails to ignite after above procedure, turn the knob to the off position and close the gas valve. Wait 5 minutes and then repeat the above steps. If the barbecue still fails to light, please refer to the manual ignition instruction in the section below.
G6. Manual Ignition Instruction for Side Burner
Set the control knob to the off position.
Apply a lit match on the gap to burner ports.
Push and turn the control knob anti-clockwise to
max position and the burner should ignite. If the burner fails to ignite, contact your local dealer for assistance.
G7. 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 roasting, turn the burner under the food to the OFF position. Close the hood and turn the other burner down to a lower setting i.e. low to medium to achieve the temperature required. DO NOT ALLOW YOUR BARBECUE TO OVERHEAT. Avoid lifting the hood unnecessarily as heat is lost each time the hood is opened.
G8. End of Cooking Session
After each cooking session, turn the barbecue burner to the max 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.
G9. 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.
H. CARE AND 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.
17

H1. 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.
H2. Burner Maintenance
Your burner has been preset for optimal flame performance. You will normally see a blue flame, possibly with a small yellow tip when the burner is alight. If the flame pattern is significantly yellow, this could be a problem caused by grease from cooking blocking the burner or spiders or other insects in the burner venturi. This can result in the flow of the gas and air mixture being restricted or blocked which may result in a fire behind the control panel causing serious damage to your barbecue. If this happens,
the gas should be immediately turned off at the bottle. Burners should be inspected and cleaned on
a regular basis in addition to the following conditions:
1) Bringing the barbecue out of storage.
2) One or more of the burners do not ignite.
3) The burner flame pattern is significantly yellow.
4) The gas ignites behind the control panel. To clean a burner, remove it from the barbecue. The
outside of the burner can be cleaned with a wire brush. Clean the portholes with a pipe cleaner or piece of wire. Take care not to enlarge the portholes. Clean the insect screen on the end of the venturi tube with a bristle brush (i.e. an old toothbrush). Clean the venturi tube with a pipe cleaner or piece of wire. You may need a torch to see into the venturi tube to make sure it is clear. Turn the burner up on end and lightly tap against a piece of wood to dislodge any debris from inside.
H3. Barbecue Body
Regularly remove excess grease or fat from the barbecue body with a soft plastic or wooden scraper. It is not necessary to remove all the grease from the body. If you need to clean fully, use hot soapy water and a cloth, or nylon-bristled brush only. Remove cooking surfaces and burners before full cleaning. Do not immerse the gas controls or manifold in water. Check burner operation after carefully refitting into body.
H4. Fixings
All screws and bolts, etc. should be checked and tightened on a regular basis.
H5. Storage
Store your barbecue in a cool dry place. It must be inspected on a regular basis as damp or condensation can form which may result in damage to the barbecue. It may be necessary to dry the barbecue and the inside of the cover if used. Mould can grow under these conditions and should be cleaned and treated if required. Any rust that is found that does not come into contact with the food should
be treated with a rust inhibitor and painted with barbecue paint or a heat resistant paint. Chrome plated warming racks and grills should be coated with cooking oil. Wrap the burners in aluminium foil to help prevent insects or other debris from obstructing the burners. The gas bottle must be always be disconnected from the barbecue and stored in a well ventilated area at least 1 metre away from any fixed ignition source. Do not store inside residential accommodation. Never store cylinders below ground level (e.g. cellars). Do not let children tamper with bottles.

Safety and Care Advice
Operation
Warning
Before proceeding, make certain that you understand the IMPORTANT INFORMATION section of this manual.
Your barbecue is not designed to be used with more than 50% of the cooking area as a solid plate — this includes baking dishes. Full coverage will cause excessive build-up of heat and damage the barbecue. This is not covered by warranty.
Preparation Before Cooking
To prevent foods from sticking to the cooking surface, please use a long handled brush to apply a light coat of cooking or vegetable oil before each barbecuing session. (Note: When cooking for the first time, paint colours may change slightly as a result. This is normal and should be expected.) During use, the protective coating may come off the cooking surface. This is normal an is not harmful. Line the drip pan with aluminium foil. This will make cleanup easy.
Lighting the Main Burner
Open the barbecue hood.
Ensure all knobs are in the off position. Open the gas control valve on the gas bottle or regulator.
Push in and turn the control knob to the Max position. Press the ignition button rapidly several times
until left or right portion of the burner is lit. If burner fails to ignite, turn control knob to the off position and turn gas off at the bottle or regulator. Wait five minutes, then repeat the above steps. After suc­cessful lighting of one side, ignite the remaining portion of the burner. If the 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, then repeat the above steps. If the barbecue still fails to light, please refer to the manual ignition instruction in the section below.
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, the burner should normally be turned down to a lower position for
best cooking results.
Manual Ignition Instruction for Main Burner
Insert lit match through the match-lighting hole at the side or bottom of the barbecue body.
Push in and turn the control knob anti-clockwise to the max position.
After the left or 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 max 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, the burner should normally be turned down to a lower position for
best cooking results.
Lighting the Side Burner
Keep side burner free.
Set the control knob to off and turn on the gas supply.
Push in and turn the control knob anti-clockwise to max position.
Push the ignition button several times and the burner should ignite.
If the burner fails to ignite after above procedure, turn the knob to the off position and close the gas
valve. Wait 5 minutes and then repeat the above steps. If the barbecue still fails to light, please refer to the manual ignition instruction in the section below.

Safety and Care Advice
Manual Ignition Instruction for Side Burner
Set the control knob to the off position.
Apply a lit match on the gap to burner ports.
Push and turn the control knob anti-clockwise to max position and the burner should ignite. If the
burner fails to ignite, contact your local dealer for assistance.
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 hot flame tamer below and vaporise. The sub­sequent rising smoke bastes the food, as it travels upwards, imparting that unique barbecued flavor.
Roasting Hood Cooking
Barbecues equipped with a roasting hood give the option to form an ‘oven’ for roasting or baking food, such as joints of meat or whole chickens, etc. More even cooking of food will actually be achieved by using the barbecue with the hood down. However, this should only be done with the burners on low.
For best results, place the food you wish to bake or roast on a metal baking tray and set it on one side of the cooking grill.
Turn the burner directly under the food to the OFF position and turn all other burners to a LOW to MEDIUM position.
Close the hood to cook the food ‘indirectly’. Avoid lifting the hood unnecessarily as heat is lost every time the hood is opened. If the hood is opened during cooking please allow extra time for the barbecue to regain its temperature and complete the cooking. Use the temperature gauge (if applicable) to monitor the heat of the barbecue.
If the internal heat becomes too high, turn the burners down to the low position. It is not necessary or advisable to have all of the burners on high when the hood is closed.
DO NOT ALLOW YOUR BARBECUE TO OVERHEAT. Take care when opening the hood as hot steam can be released on opening.
Flare-Up Control *Very Important Notice* Flare-ups occur when meat is barbecued, and its fat and juices fall upon the hot flame tamer. Smoke of course helps give food its barbecued flavour, but it is best to avoid excessive flare-up to prevent food being burned. To control flare-ups, it is ABSOLUTELY ESSENTIAL to trim away excess fat from meat and poultry before grilling, use cooking sauces and marinades sparingly and try to avoid very cheap cuts of meat or meat products as these tend to have a high fat and water content. Also, the burners should always be placed on the low setting during cooking.
When flare-ups do occur, they can usually be extinguished by applying baking soda or salt directly onto the flame tamer. Always protect your hands when handling anything near the cooking surface of the bar­becue and take care to protect yourself from the flames.
If a fat fire occurs, please see the instructions given below.
Fat Fires
Empty and clean the drip tray, of food debris after each cooking session. If the barbecue is to be used for large gatherings, it will be necessary to turn off and cool the barbecue every two hours to remove food debris from the drip tray, and clean it out. The time between cleaning may need to be reduced if very fatty foods or cheap meat products are being cooked. Failure to do this may result in a fat fire, which may cause injury and could seriously damage the barbecue.

Safety and Care Advice
In the event of a fat fire:
If safe to do so, turn all control knobs to the ‘off’ position.
Turn off the gas supply at the gas bottle.
Keep everyone at a safe distance from the barbecue and wait until the fire has burnt out.
Do not close the hood or lid of the barbecue.
NEVER DOUSE A BARBECUE WITH WATER. IF AN EXTINGUISHER IS USED, IT SHOULD BE A
POWDER TYPE.
DO NOT REMOVE THE DRIP TRAY.
If the fire does not seem to be abating or appears to be worsening, contact your local Fire Brigade for
assistance.
End of Cooking Session
After each cooking session, turn the barbecue burners 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.
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 supply at the bottle.
Wait until the barbecue is sufficiently cool before closing the hood or lid.
Care and 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 . Even when your barbecue is covered for its protection, it must be inspected on a regular basis as damp or condensation can form which may result in damage to the barbecue. It may be necessary to dry the bar­becue and the inside of the cover. It is possible for mould to grow on any fat remaining on parts of the barbecue. This should be cleaned off smooth surfaces with hot soapy water.
Any rust that is found that does not come into contact with the food should be treated with a rust inhibitor and painted with barbecue paint or a heat resistant paint. A chrome cleaner may be used on chrome parts if required. To prevent rusting, wipe chrome plated parts with cooking oil after rinsing and drying.
Cooking Surfaces
When the barbecue has cooled, clean with hot soapy water. To remove any food residue, use a mild cream cleaner on a non-abrasive pad. Do not use scouring pads or powders as they can permanently damage the finish. Rinse well and dry thoroughly. Due to the weight of the cooking surfaces, we do not recommend cleaning in a dishwasher.
It is quite normal for surface rust to be present on the cooking surface. If rust appears between uses or in storage, clean with a soft brass wire brush. Be careful not to damage the cooking surface, re-oil and cure.
Burner
Provided that they are operating correctly, in normal usage, burning off the residue after cooking will keep

Safety and Care Advice
the burners clean.
The burners should be removed and cleaned annually, or whenever heavy build-up is found, to ensure that there are no signs of blockage (debris, insects) in either the burner portholes or the primary air inlet of the burners. Use a pipe cleaner to clear obstructions.
When refitting the burners, be careful to check that the neck of the burner fits over the valve outlet. It is quite normal for surface rust to be present on the burners. If rust appears between uses or in storage, clean with a soft brass wire brush.
Flame Tamer
Remove any food residue from the flame tamer surface with a plastic or wooden scraper or brass wire brush.
Do not use a steel scraper or wire brush. Clean with hot soapy water and rinse well.
Drip Tray
After every use, empty and clean the drip tray of any fat or food particles, using a plastic or wooden scraper if necessary.
Failure to keep it clean, and excessive build up can result in a fat fire. This can be hazardous and severely damage the barbecue. This is not a fault in the barbecue and is therefore not covered by the terms of the warranty. If required, the tray can be washed in hot soapy water.
Barbecue Body
Regularly remove excess grease or fat from the barbecue body using a cloth wrung out in hot soapy water and dry thoroughly. Excess fat and food debris can be removed from inside the body using a soft plastic or wooden scraper. It is not necessary to remove all the grease from the body. If you need to clean fully, use hot soapy water and a cloth, or nylon-bristled brush only. Do not use abrasives. Remove cooking surfaces and burners before full cleaning. Do not immerse the gas controls or manifold in water. Check burner operation after carefully refitting into body.
A stainless steel cleaner may be used on stainless steel parts if required.
Whenever a barbecue is being assembled for the first time or its burners are being cleaned, make sure each gas valve tip goes into the burner venturi tube completely during the assemble or re-assemble process.
Barbecue Hood or Lid
Use a non-abrasive cloth or pad and clean with hot, soapy water. Do not use scouring pads or powders as they can permanently damage the finish.

Wipe with a cloth wrung out in hot soapy water and dry.

Safety and Care Advice
Fixings
All screws and bolts, etc. should be checked and tightened on a regular basis.
Storage
Ensure the barbecue is properly cooled before covering or storing. Store your barbecue in a cool dry place. It must be inspected on a regular basis as damp or condensation can form which may result in damage to the barbecue. It may be necessary to dry the barbecue and the inside of the cover if used. Mould can grow under these conditions and should be cleaned and treated if required. Any rust that is found that does not come into contact with the food should be treated with a rust inhibitor and painted with barbecue paint or a heat resistant paint.
Cooking grills should be coated with cooking oil.
Cover the burners with aluminum foil in order to prevent insects or other debris from obstructing the burner holes.
If the barbecue is to be stored indoors, the gas bottle must be disconnected and left outside. The gas bottle should always be stored outside, in a dry, well-ventilated area, away from any sources of heat or ignition. Do not let children tamper with the bottle.
When using the barbecue after extended periods of storage follow the cleaning procedures.
