Gas, Regulator and Hose
This barbecue can use either propane or butane or propane-butane mixed LPG (liquid petroleum gas) bottled gas. Propane bottles will supply gas all year round, even on cold winter days. Butane bottles will supply sufficient gas in summer, but it may affect the performance of the barbecue and restrict the heat output available from the burners, particularly once the gas temperature starts to fall below +10°C. A spanner may be required to change gas bottles.
The hose should hang freely with no bends, twisting, tension, folds, or kinks that could obstruct free flow of gas. Always inspect the hose for cuts, cracks, or excessive wear
21
before use.
Apart from the connection point, no part of the hose should touch any hot barbecue parts. If the hose shows any sign of damage it must be replaced with a hose suitable for use with LP gas which meets the national standards for the country of use.
A suitable hose must comply with EN16436-1 or local regulation, and the length should not exceed 1.5 metres.
For optimal performance, we suggest to use a 13kg gas bottle. A suitable regulator must comply with EN12864 or EN16129. YOU MUST HAVE THE PROPER REGULATOR AND BOTTLE IN ORDER FOR THE BARBECUE TO OPERATE SAFELY AND EFFICIENTLY. USE OF AN INCORRECT OR FAULTY REGULATOR IS DANGEROUS AND WILL INVALIDATE ANY WARRANTY. Please consult your local gas dealer for the most suitable gas bottles and regulators.
Installation
Selecting a Location
This barbecue is for outdoor use only and should be placed in a well-ventilated area, and on a safe and even surface. Never place your barbecue below ground level. 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, including trees and fences and make sure that there are no heat sources near the barbecue (cigarettes, open flames, spark etc.). Keep this barbecue away from any flammable materials!
Precautions
Do not obstruct any ventilation openings in the barbecue body.
(Gas Grill Only) Position the gas bottle on level ground next to the barbecue and safely away from any source of heat.
Should you need to install or 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.
The casters should always have the brakes on when the barbecue is in use.
(Charcoal Grill Only) The charcoal grill is not designed to be used with lump wood charcoal, including lump wood based lighting bags, as it burns too quickly. We recommend the use of charcoal briquettes. Use only enough briquettes to coverthe charcoal grid in a single layer. Do not overload the charcoal grid. The Maximum amountof briquettes to be used at any one time is 2.5kg. When placing the charcoal, never allow charcoal to be closerthan 5cm to the surrounding sides of the barbecue body.
Connecting a Gas Hose to the Barbecue
Connect the gas hose to the gas rail inlet on the left ha nd side of the barbecue. Do not overtighten. Do not use any sealing tape, paste or liquid on the connection.
Fixing a Regulator to the Gas Bottle
Confirm all barbecue control knobs are in the off position. Connect the regulator to the gas bottle according to your regulator and bottle dealer’s instructions.
Operation
nWarnings
nBefore proceeding, make certain that you
understand the IMPORTANT INFORMATION section of this manual.
n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 and is not harmful.
Line the drip pan with aluminium foil. This will make cleanup easy.
Lighting the Barbecue (For Gas Grill Users Only)
Open the barbecue hood before lighting.
Never light your barbecue with the hood
22
closed.
Ensure all knobs are in the off position.
Open the gas control valve on the gas bottle or regulator.
Push and turn the control knob of the
leftmost burner to the high position. Press the ignition button rapidly several times until burner is lit.
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.
Manual Ignition Instructions (For Gas Grill Users Only)
Open the barbecue hood before lighting.
Never light your barbecue with the hood closed.
Ensure all knobs are in the off position.
Open the gas control valve on the gas bottle or regulator.
Insert lit match through the right match-
lighting hole on the right side of the barbecue body and place near rightmost burner porthole.
Push and turn the rightmost control knob
anti-clockwise to the high position, taking care to protect yourself from the flames.
When the right burner is lit, turn the
remaining burners on from right to left.
Confirm that each burner is alight before
turning on the next burner.
If a burner fails to ignite, contact your local
dealer for assistance.
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 lava rock underneath the grill, which in turn heats the food on the grill. The natural food juices produced during cooking fall onto the lava rock 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,
23
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 kitchen, for searing steaks, cooking eggs, etc. Alternatively, it can be used for heating pans or keeping food warm.
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 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. Be careful of hot steam when opening the hood.
Warming Rack
Warming racks are a convenient way to keep cooked food warm or to warm items such as bread rolls. It is advisable to place food (particularly fatty foods) to the front of the warming rack to avoid the possibility of juices and fat running down the back of your barbecue. Always check that your warming rack is properly fitted before use.
Replenishing the Charcoal (For Charcoal Grill Users Only)
To replenish the charcoal during use, remove the food from the grill. With protected hands, use the two grill lifting handles provided to lift the charcoal cooking grill. Once the charcoal cooking grill is lifted, add the charcoal, carefully replace the charcoal cooking grill, and continue cooking when the charcoal is ready. When using the two handles to move the charcoal cooking grill, take care to position them correctly so that the charcoal cooking grill is stable.
Crank Handle (For Charcoal Grill Users Only)
By turning the crank handle, the charcoal tray can be raised or lowered to adjust the cooking heat at any time while cooking. Raising tray increases the heat, and lowering tray reduces heat. Raise the tray after unit has cooled down completely to make it easier to brush the ashes into the charcoal drip tray. Do not raise the tray higher than halfway when fully loaded with fresh charcoal.
Heat Control (For Charcoal Grill Users Only)
The adjustable vents in the hood and the left side of the barbecue body can be used to control the burning of the charcoal. With the vents open, more air will circulate and the charcoal will burn faster than with the vents closed. Caution: the appliance may become very hot. Oven gloves and the grill lifting handles, should always be used when adjusting the vents. Do not close the hood or lid whilst the charcoal is still flaming. Wait until it has ashed over.
Flare-Up Control *Very Important Notice*
Flare-ups occur when meat is barbecued, and its fat and juices fall upon the hot lava rock. 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 flare­ups, 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.
24
When flare-ups do occur, they can usually be extinguished by applying baking soda or salt directly onto the lava rock. Always protect your hands when handling anyt hing 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 and drip pan (and foil liner, if applicable) 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 drip pan (and foil liner, if applicable), 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.
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 or lid 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 its hood.
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.
nNever handle hot parts wit h unprotected
hands.
nNever douse the barbecue with water when
its surfaces are hot.
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. Heavy-duty barbecue covers and other accessories are available from your local stockist.
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.
Cooking Surfaces & Warming Rack
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
25
normal usage, burning off the residue after cooking will keep 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.
Lava Rock
It is not necessary to remove and wash the lava rock in order to keep it clean. Burning off the residue for 3 to 5 minutes after each cooking session should be sufficient. Heavily impregnated lava rock should be turned over so that the dirty side faces the burners in order to burn off any residue. Replacement lava rock is available from your local stockist.
Drip Tray
After every use, empty and clean the drip tray (and foil liner, if applicable) 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.
Barbecue Hood or Lid & Trolley
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.
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.
Cover the burners with aluminium foil in order to prevent insects or other debris from collecting in 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 ignit ion. Do not let children tamper with the bottle.
When using the barbecue after extended periods of storage follow the cleaning procedures.
