nESSENTIAL INFORMATION

Please read instructions before using your barbecue.

BEFORE YOU USE YOUR BARBECUE (also see installation)

• Perform a leak test. This is the only safe and sure way to detect any gas leaking from joints and

connections of the bar becue after assem bly. Follow the leak test instructions on page 20. Check that the
gas hose is free of any tension, twisting, cuts, or cracks.

• Make sure your barbecue is in a safe place. It must be outdoors, on level ground and not below ground

level. En sure that the barbecu e is at leas t 1 meter away from a ny flam mabl e materials, inclu ding trees and
fences and that there are no heat sources near the barbecue (cigarettes, open flames, spark etc.)

• Check that you have the correct gas bottle and regulator for your barbecue (see recommendations in the

Gas and Regulator section of this manual) and that the gas bottle is placed correctly in the gas bottle
holder provided. Never place the gas bottle directly underneath the bar becue.

GETTING STARTED (also see operation)

• Open the hood of your barbecue. Never light your bar becue with the hood closed. Turn the gas regulator

or gas bottle valve to the ‘on’ position. Push in the control knob of the burner you want to light and turn it
anti clockwise until resistance is felt. Wait 4 seconds and then continue turning the control knob until a
click is heard. Repeat if necessary until the burner is alight. Light all other burners in the same way
making sure each bu rner is ali ght bef ore attempti ng to light the next. I F ANY BURNER FAILS TO LIGHT,
TURN OFF THE GAS AT THE BURNERS AND THE GAS BOTTLE, WAIT FIVE MINUTES AND TRY
AGAIN. If the burners cannot be lit using the ignition system, turn to the manual lighting instructions under
important information.

• Onc e th e bu rn ers are l it, t urn all th e bu rn ers t o t he hi gh set tin g f or 3- 5 min utes t o pr e-h eat th e bar bec ue.

This should be done before each session. W hen pre-heating is complete, cooking can begin taking extra
care if t he burners are used in the hig h posi t ion.

• To prevent food sticking we recommend that you use a long handled brush to apply a light coat of cooking

oil to the grills and griddles before eac h barbecue session.

• Flare-ups may occur during cooking and can be controlled by applying salt directly onto the flame tamer

making sure your hands are protected from the heat.

• If a fat fire should occur during cooking, and if safe to do so, turn of f the burners and the gas at the gas

bottle and wait for the fire to go out. Do not pull out the drip tray or douse with water.

• Never douse a bar becue with water.

• Never move a barbecue when lit.

• Never leave a lit barbecue unattended

• Never handle hot parts with unprotected hands

• Keep children, animals, and elderly people a safe distance from a l it barbecue.

WHEN YOU HAVE FINISHED COOKING (also see Maintenance)

• Turn all the burners to the high position for 3 to 5 minutes to burn off any food residue from the

cooking surfaces and burners. When the barbecue has cooled, the burnt residue can be removed from

the gr ill s , gri ddl e an d flam e tam ers us i ng a pla sti c scr ap er or pl ast ic s cou ri ng pad . A bra ss wir e br ush c an
be used on the burners.

• When the barbecue has cooled, scrape away any food and fat residue from the drip tray and discard.

Empty and clean the Foil Liner. These routines must be completed after each session.

STORAGE

• Ensure the barbecue i s properly cooled.

• Always disconnect the gas bottle and store it in a safe place, never store a gas bottle indoors or on its side.

• Store the barbecue in a cool dry place. The detachable side shelf can be removed to save space during

storage.

• Cover the burners wi th foil to keep the bur ner holes free from insect s or oth er deb r is.

19

• If you intend to leave your barbecue outside make sure it is protected from the elements by a heavy duty

cov er, these are avai lable from most Outb ack® st ocki sts.

• 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. 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. Wooden
parts may also need to be cleaned and treated. Chrome plated warming racks etc. should be coated with
cooking oil.

• 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 t amper with bottles.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

• This product is for outdoor use only. Do not use indoors. Do not use below ground level.

• Do not store Gas bottles below ground level. LP gas is heavier than air so if a leak occurs the gas will

collect at a low level and could ignite in t he pres ence of a flame or s park.

• Do not store or use LP gas bottles on their side as this could allow liquid gas into the supply pipes with

serious results.

• Leak test your barbecue annually. Check the hose connections are tight and leak test each time you

reconnect the gas bottle.

• Always turn off the gas at the gas bottle when not in use.

• Do not use aerosols near this barbecue.

GAS, REGULATOR AND HOS E

This barbecue, hose, (and regulator, if included), are approved for use in the UK. The barbecue is also
approved for use in other countries as listed on the control panel and in the Technical Specifications included
in the barbecue manual. If the barbecue i s intended to be used outside of the UK, the consum er MUST seek
advice from the local qualified gas supplier as to the suitability of the barbecue and wi th regards to the correct
hose and regulator that they should be using.

This barbecue can run on propane or butane LPG (liquid petroleum gas) bottled gas. For optimal performance
we recommend the use of propane gas which is supplied under a number of different names and bottle
col ours. Bu tane gas c an be used bu t it may res trict t he heat ou tput av ailable f rom the b urners, particu larly
when the gas temperature falls below +10 degrees Celsius. If in doubt, please consult your gas dealer/
distributor.

For optimal performance, we suggest the following:

Suitable regulator:
Butane – outlet pressure 28-30mbar
Propane – outlet pressure 37mbar The use of an adjustable regulator i s dangerous and must never be used
with this barbecue.

Hose

• Check that the gas hose does not touch any par t of the barbecue that may become hot during operation.

• If the hose shows any sign of damage it must be replaced with a hose that is suitable for use with LPG

(liquid petroleum gas) and m eets British Standards.

• The length of hose should not exceed 1.5 metres.

Please note

: the date on UK or ange hose is the date of manufacture – not the expiry date

You must have the correct gas bottle, regulator, and hose for the barbecue to operate safely and
efficie ntl y. Use of an incorrec t or faulty re gulato r is dangero us and will in valida te the warr anty on this
product. If you are unsure, please check wi t h your local gas dealer.

INSTALLATION

Precautions:

• Only use this barbecue in a well-ventilated outdoor area.

• Check that the barbecue is not pla c ed UNDER any combustib le surface.

• The sides of the barbecue should never be closer than 1 metre to any combustible material.

• Do not obstruct any ventilation openings in the barbecue body

• Confirm all control knobs are in the off position before connecting the regulator.

• Always connect the regulator in accordance with the regulator and gas bottle suppliers instructions.

LEAK TESTING

Step 2 - Detach the barbecue control panel located across the front of the barbecue body by pulling off the

control knobs and removing the control panel retaining screws.

Step 3 - Turn on the gas at the gas bottle or regulator
Step 4 - Check for leaks by brushing a solution of ½ water and ½ liquid soap over al l t he gas s yst em j oint s,

including all valve connections, hose connections, and r egulator connections.
Step 5 - If bubbles form over any of the joints there is a leak

• Turn off the gas

• Retighten all joints

• Repeat test

• If bubbl es form again do not use the barbecue and contact your local Outback dealer for assistance or

call Outback customer services on [phone]. Customer services are available during normal
office hours, Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm.

OPERATION

Your barbecue is not designed to be used with more than 50% of the cooking area as a solid plate – this
includes baking dishes. If more than 50% of your cooki ng area is covered by a solid cooking surface, the
barbecue could over heat causing damage that is not covered by warranty.

Grill cooking
The burners heat the flame tamer beneath the grill that, in turn, heats the food. The natural juices produced
during cooking fall onto the flame tamer and vaporise to form smoke. The smoke then rises and ‘bastes’ the
food, giving it that unique barbecued flavour.
Mor e even co oki ng of f ood wil l be ac hieved wit h the ho od down whic h will al so h old th e heat i n. Thi s shoul d
only be done with the burners on a low to medium setting.

Griddle plate cooking
The burners heat the griddle plate directly, which then cooks the food on contact. Griddle plates enable the
cooking of sm aller items that would, otherwise, fall through the grill. They can also be used f or searing cuts of
meat or cooking food like eggs that would not be possible to cook on a gr ill. Griddles can also be used to heat
pans.

Warming Basket
Warming baskets are a convenient way t o keep cooked food warm or to warm items such as bread rolls. Care
should be taken t o ensure any items placed in the warming basket are cooked through and do not continue to
cook and drip fat or meat juices, which could drip ont o the hood and down the back of the barbecue.

Flare-up control
Flare-u ps will often occur when food is barbecued as fat and juices fall onto the flam e tamer. Some fat is
necessary to give the food its barbecued flavour but excessive fat can r esult in a flare-up. To avoid flare-ups it
is advisable to trim 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 high fat and water
contents. Flare-ups occur more at the start of cooking, particularly with processed meat products, and it may

be n eces s a r y t o t u r n t h e bur n er s do w n t o t heir l ow es t setti ng to s ta rt w it h a nd t h en t ur ning u p a t a l at er s t ag e
in the cooking process. The barbecue should also not be overloaded. Some parts of the cooking area are
hotter than others. The hottest areas will be above the burners which will be where the flare ups will normally
sta rt. By l eaving f ree spa ce you c an simpl y move t he food awa y from the flar e up to a co oler ar ea unti l the
flare up has subsided.

Fat Fires
The Foil Liner must be emptied and the drip tray cleaned of food debris after each cooking session. If the
barbecue is to be used for commercial use or 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 out the Foil Liner, 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 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 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.

Manua l ig nition instructio n s

• Insert a long, lit match through the match-lighting hole in the right hand side of the body of the bar becue

until the lit end is alongside the right hand burner. Push and turn the right hand control knob anti-clockwise
to the high position taking care to protect yourself from flames.

• When the burne r is lit tu rn th e rema ining burne rs from right to left.

• Confirm that each burner is lit before turning on the next burner.

• If the right hand burner fails to light, turn of f the gas and contact your local Outback dealer or our

customer services department on [phone] for assistance.

MAINTENANCE

nNever handle hot parts of the BBQ with unprotected hands.
nNever douse the BBQ with water when its surfaces are hot.

General

• Regularly clean your BBQ between uses and especially after extended periods of storage.

• Do not leave the BBQ uncovered and exposed to the elem ents when not in use. Heavy duty covers are

available as an accessory from your Outback ® 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. 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. Wooden parts may also need to be cleaned and
treated. Chrome plated wa r ming rack s etc. should be c oated with cooki ng oil.

• The wooden shelf, shelf insert and bottom slats are made from hardwood ideally suited to outside

conditions. Hardwood will naturally weather and change its appearance and it is quite natural for small
cracks to appear on the surface of the wood. The wood should be regularly inspected and any weathered
or damaged surfaces should be recoated promptly with Yacht varnish or an external grade Polyurethane
varnish. Follow the varnish manufacturer’s instructions for preparation and application.

• All screws and bolts should be checked and tightened if necessary on a regular basis.

22

Burner Removal

To remove the bur ners (see photos):

1. Remove the burner retaining clip from underneath the burner support.

2. Remove the cross channel lighter bar from the burner.

3. Lift the back of the burner upwards and pull away from the opening and the gas valve at the front of the
barbecue.

To re-install the burners (not depicted):

1. Slide the burner into the opening and over the gas valve at the front of the barbecue and lower the back of
the burner into the locating hole onto the burner support.

2. Re fit the burner retaining clip.

3. Re fit the cross channel lighter bar.

• Your burners have 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 of f at the bottle.

• Burners should be inspected and cleane d on a regular basis in addition to the following cond itions:

1. Bringing the barbecue out of storage.

2. O ne or more of t he bur ners 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 brass

wire brush.

• C lean the p ortho les with a pipe cleaner or pi ece of w i re. Take ca re not to enlarge the portholes .

• Cl ean the air inlets on the end of the venturi tube with a bristle brush (i.e. an old tooth brush).

• C lean the v entur i tu be wit h a pipe c lea ner or piec e of wir e. You may need a t orch to see in to th e vent uri

tube to make sure it is clear.

• Tur n the burner up on end and li ghtly tap against a piece of wood to dislodge any debris from inside.
