LP Gas vapor is heavier than air and SERIOUS INJURY from a DANGEROUS EXPLOSION could occur if LP Gas is allowed to accumulate in an enclosure and then ignited. Both the Barbecue enclosure and LP cylinder enclosure require venting that must be provided at the floor level of the enclosure to allow any leaking LP Gas vapor to escape. Upper & lower ground-level vents (200 cm2)minimum each) MUST BE PROVIDED on both sides of built-in construction.

NOTE: When installing a barbecue equipped for liquid propane in an island, the propane tank must be in a separate enclosure that is completely isolated from the barbecue. It must be cross-ventilated in accordance with the current standard. The propane tank MUST NEVER be installed directly under the barbecue. NOTE: Upper & lower ground-level vents (200 cm2) minimum each) MUST BE PROVIDED for combustion air on both sides of built-in construction.

NOTE: Do not use your grill in bad weather.

CARE & MAINTENANCE

As with all appliances, proper care and maintenance will keep them in top operating condition and prolong their life. Your new gas barbecue is no exception. By following these cleaning procedures on a timely basis, your barbecue will be kept clean and working properly with minimum effort.

FLASH-BACK

Spiders and small insects occasionally spin webs or make nests in the burner tubes during warehousing and transit. These webs can lead to a gas flow obstruction which could result in a fire in and around the burner tubes. Cleaning with a soft brush before use and at least every six months is recommended.

This type of fire is known as ‘FLASH-BACK’ and can cause serious damage to your barbecue and create an unsafe operating condition for the user. Although an obstructed burner tube is not the only cause of ‘FLASH-BACK’ it is the most common cause and frequent inspection and cleaning of the burner tubes is necessary.

If fire occurs in and around the burner, immediately turn off gas at its source and turn the burner control to ‘OFF’, wait until the barbecue has cooled, then clean the burner tubes and burner ports.

CLEANING THE GREASE TRAY

To avoid fat or grease dripping from the barbecue remove and empty the drip tray after each use. A small amount of water can be placed in the drip tray before use to help with fat removal. Wait until the drip tray is cool to touch before disposing of contents The drip tray should be washed periodically in a mild detergent and warm water solution.

WARNING

• To avoid any flare-ups, it is recommended that the drip tray be checked and emptied regularly. Contents of the drip tray may be very hot during cooking. If emptied during extended cooking extreme caution should be taken and direct contact by hand should be avoided at all times. Allow to cool completely before disposing of the contents.
• Beware of spiders and wasps. Burner tubes should be inspected and cleaned periodically.
• This appliance must only be serviced by an authorised person.

CARE OF COOKING SURFACE

Your barbecue is supplied with an enamel grill and plate.
Correct use and care of the cooking surface is important to ensure trouble free cooking. Clean thoroughly while cooking surface is cooling. Do not leave food on the cooking surface when not in use.

CARE OF STAINLESS STEEL

Refer to Page 18 for details.

SERVICE

If the appliance cannot be adjusted to perform correctly it should not be used until serviced or contact Focus Lifestyle Products of (03) 9562 3455 or info@thermofilm.com.au for service enquires.

CARE AND CLEANING OF STAINLESS STEEL

Stainless steel parts of this appliance are made from 304 grade stainless steel. To preserve the appearance and corrosion resistance of the stainless steel material regular cleaning is required

Although stainless steel does not rust in the same manner as steel it can still exhibit ‘corrosion’ blemishes that look similar to rust and detract from the appliances appearance. Unlike steel, the corrosion of stainless steel is mostly confined to the surface and in most cases can be removed by cleaning, returning the surface to almost like new.

The most common form of corrosion that affects stainless steel is what is known as ‘Tea Staining”. This shows up as brown spots on the surface, hence the confusion with rusting. This is most common in coastal areas but depending on the environment can also occur in inland areas. If the ‘Tea Staining’ marks are not regularly cleaned from the material surface they can penetrate into the material and become very difficult to remove, the application of a metal polish would then be required.

If the appliance is located near swimming pools careful attention to cleaning is required. Pool chemicals contain chlorides which can affect the stainless steel. This also applies to salt water pools as they contain salt, namely sodium chloride.

The use of bleaches containing chlorine should not be used to clean the stainless steel surfaces. If the residues are not completed rinsed away they can cause heavy pitting of the material. Pitting corrosion eats deep into the surface and is not easily removed. Heavy polishing is required.

STUBBORN STAINS AND CORROSION SPOTS

Stubborn stains, discolouration, ‘Tea Staining’ can occur from insufficient cleaning, excessive spillage from cooking, severe environmental conditions and extreme cooking conditions.

There are proprietary stainless steel cleaners available that are designed for such instances. Read the instructions carefully before using.

Always rub or wipe in the direction of the surface grain or original polish lines.

Some stainless steel cleaners may damage painted or plastic surfaces, read the directions carefully

ROUTINE CARE

After each use allow the appliance to cool then wipe over with a soft, damp, soapy cloth. (DO NOT USE CLEANERS CONTAINING CHLORINE). Be sure to wipe off food particles and cooking residues, some marinades and oils can be acidic and therefore attack the metal surface. Also, cooking residues that are not removed after each use bake into the surfaces during subsequent uses and become more difficult to remove.

There are a number of primary stainless steel cleaners available that can be safely used on this appliance. Read the directions carefully before using DO NOT USE STEEL WOOL as particles can become embedded in the surface and then rust resulting in small brown specs on the surface. If scouring is required to remove stubborn cooking residues use a soft nylon pad (non abrasive).

DO NOT USE ABRASIVE CLEANING COMPOUNDS, use cream type.

If the appliance is used on an irregular basis it is advised tostill clean regularly and keep it covered from the elements, either by using a durable BBQ cover or under a covered porch. Dirt and dust contain corrosive particles from the environment that can attack the surface. Stainless steel surfaces retain their best resistance to corrosion when kept clean. Even if the appliance is protected with a durable BBQ cover check regularly, condensation underneath the cover may be corrosive due to the local environment and cause damage to the metal surface.

After cleaning applying a thin coating of ‘light oil’, for example baby oil, will also help protect the stainless steel surface from the elements.

MAINTENANCE

CLEANING THE BURNER TUBES AND BURNER PORTS

To reduce the chance of FLASHBACK FIRE you must clean the burner tubes as follows at least once a month in summer and fall or whenever spiders are active in your area, and if your barbecue has not been used for an extended period of time.

1. Turn all burner valves to the full “OFF” position.
2. Turn the LP gas cylinder valve to the full “OFF” position.
3. Detach the LP gas regulator assembly from your gas barbecue.
4. Remove the cooking plates from your barbecue.
5. Remove the screw from the burner using a screwdriver.
6. Carefully lift each burner up and away from the gas valve orifice.
7. Check and clean burner / venturi tubes for insects and insect nests. A clogged tube can lead to a fire beneath the barbecue.
8. Refer to diagram 1 and perform one of these three cleaning methods:

METHOD 1 : Bend a stiff wire or wire coat hanger into a small hook as shown and run the hook through the burner tube and inside the burner several times to remove debris.

METHOD 2 : Use a bottle brush with a flexible handle and run the brush through the burner tube and inside the burner several times to remove any debris.
METHOD 3 : Use an air hose to force air through each burner tube. The forced air should pass debris or obstructions through the burner and out the ports. Regardless of which burner cleaning procedure you use, we recommend you also complete the following steps to help prolong burner life.

1. Use a fibre pad or nylon brush to clean the entire outer surface of each burner until free of food residue and dirt.
2. Clean any clogged ports with a stiff wire, such as an open paper clip.
3. Inspect each burner for damage (cracks or holes) and if such damage is found, order and install a new burner. After installation, check to ensure that the gas valve orifices are correctly placed inside the ends of the burner tubes. Also check the position of your spark electrode

FOR SAFE OPERATION ENSURE THE GAS VALVE ASSEMBLY ORIFICE IS INSIDE THE B U R N E R T U B E B E F O R E U S I N G Y O U R BARBECUE. IF THE ORIFICE IS NOT INSIDE THE BURNER TUBE, LIGHTING THE BURNER MAY CAUSE EXPLOSION AND / OR FIRE RESULTING IN SERIOUS BODILY INJURY AND / OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.
