With hood open insert lighted match into match lighting hole positioned on the side of the BBQ body. Push and turn a control knob to ‘HIGH’. Burner ignition can be checked through this hole.
• Never use the side burner with the lid in the closed position. Never attempt to the light the side burner with a pot over the burner. Light the burner first and then place the pot over the burner.
• DO NOT USE THE ROTISSERIE BURNER WHEN MAIN BURNERS ARE IN OPERATION.
• THE WARMING RACK NEEDS TO BE REMOVED BEFORE USING THE REAR BURNER
• The hood must be in the open position for lighting
• Do not leave the barbecue unattended when alight.
• Never use all burners on high at the same time when cooking with the hood down.

OPERATING PROCEDURE

Burn-off
The cooking surface does not need any burn-off time after first use.

Preheating
It is necessary to preheat the barbecue for at least 5 minutes before cooking certain foods, depending on the type of food and the cooking temperature. Food that requires a low cooking temperature, needs only a period of 2-3 minutes preheating.

Cooking Temperatures
‘HIGH’ setting – Use this setting only for fast warm up, for searing steaks and chops, and for burning food residue from the grill plates after cooking is over. Rarely, if ever, do you use the ‘HIGH’ setting for extended cooking.
‘MEDIUM’ setting (mid-way between ‘HIGH’ and ‘LOW*).
Use this setting for most grilling, and for cooking hamburgers and vegetables.
‘LOW’ setting – Use this setting when cooking very lean cuts such as fish.
These temperatures vary with outside temperature and the amount of wind.

Roasting
For best results when roasting remove the hotplate and centre the grill. The outer two burners should be used on the low to medium setting.
Adjust the control knob to maintain the temperature around the medium mark.

Approximate Cooking Time
The table below shows approximate cooking times with the control set to ‘MEDIUM’ temperature.

If the appliance has excessively yellow flames or cannot be adjusted to perform correctly call 1300 174 876.

Burner operation

that the gas bottle is not empty and re-ignite the burner
Cooking surface was not given enough time to warm up before the food was applied| Remove the food and give the burner time to warm the cooking surface (5-10 minutes)
There is too much food on the cooking surface| Cook smaller portions

CARE & MAINTENANCE

Location of your Barbecue
DO NOT use your barbecue in garages, porches, sheds, breezeways, or other enclosed areas. Your barbecue is to be used OUTDOORS. The barbecue is not intended to be installed in or on recreational vehicles and/or boats and should not be placed under any surface that will burn. Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air around the barbecue housing.

Protect Children
Keep children away from barbecue during use and until barbecue has cooled after you have finished. Do not allow children to operate barbecue.
Always ensure that no sporting or physical activities are carried out in close proximity to the barbecue during use and while still hot.

Tools You Will Need
Adjustable spanner, Phillips head screwdriver.
Check Barbecue for any Damage Inspect barbecue parts as you proceed. Contact your supplier for assistance regarding replacement of any damaged or missing parts. Do not assemble or operate a barbecue that appears damaged. Barbecues for use with gas cylinders are labeled ‘Propane Gas’ or Universal L.P.G’. Check labeling at the gas connection on your barbecue.

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.

Cleaning the Cooking Surface
After cooking, turn burner control to ‘OFF’ and let barbecue cool before attempting to clean the cooking surtace. Before first use and periodically, it is suggested that you wash the cooking surface in a mild soap and warm water solution.

Care of Cooking Surface
Use and care of the cooking surface is important. Do not use pans on the cooking surface. Do not overheat the cooking surface with the hood down or no food on the cooking surface.

Cleaning the Drip Tray
To avoid fat or grease dripping from the barbecue remove and empty the drip tray after each use. 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.
Rust and Discolouration Minimization
It is a common misconception that stainless steel will not rust. Stainless steel can rust if it is not maintained properly, especially when it is near to a coastline, swimming pool or when exposed to commercial strength cleaning products. Regular cleaning is one of the best ways to minimize rusting and discolouration.
When cleaning your BBQ use a mild dish soap combined with warm water and a soft cloth to clean the surface.
Then rinse your BBQ with clean water.
Note : Never use wire wool or any hard cleaning pad on the stainless- steel surface, as it can cause surface damage and rusting over time. If not in use, after cleaning and when it is dry, cover it with a BBQ cover and store it in a dry place to prevent rusting and discoloration.
If surface rust appears, clean off the rust spots using suitable specialised stainless-steel cleanser and following the instructions. Always rub in the same direction of the grain to prevent scratching. Note: Do NOT use any stainless-steel cleanser to clean the hood exterior, as it may damage the finish.
Note : if you live near to a beach or your BBQ is kept near to your swimming pool, more regular cleaning maybe required to prevent rusting

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 BURNER
Follow these instructions to clean and/or replace burners.
1. Turn gas off at control knobs and gas cylinder.
2. Remove cooking grates and grease tray.
3. Remove clip at end of burner.
4. Carefully lift each burner up and away from valve openings.
CAUTION: Inspect burner for any damage (cracks or holes). If damage is found, replace with a new burner. Reinstall the burner, check to ensure that the gas valve orifices are correctly positioned and secured inside the burner inlet.
We suggest three ways to clean the burner tubes. Use the one easiest for you.
(A) Bend a stiff wire (a light weight coat hanger works well) into a small hook. Run the hook through each burner tube several times.
(B) Use a narrow bottle brush with a flexible handle (DO NOT use a brass wire brush), run the brush through each burner tube several times.
(C) Wear eye protection: use an air hose to force air into the burner tube and out the air ports. Check each port to make sure air comes out each hole.

5. Wire brush entire outer surface of burner to remove food residue and dirt.
6. Clean any blocked ports with a stiff wire such as an open paper clip.
7. Check burner for damage, due to normal wear and corrosion some holes may become enlarged. If any large cracks or holes are found replace burner.
8. Carefully refit burners, ensuring they are located on the gas valve.
9. Replace clip at the end of burner.
10. Replace grease tray and cooking grates.

WARNING
Beware of spiders and wasps. Burner tube should be inspected and cleaned periodically.
This appliance must only be serviced by an authorised person.
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. Should the burners extinguish for any reason, turn off all control knobs and the cylinder gas valve. Wait 5 minutes before attempting to relight the appliance. If a grease or fat fire occurs, turn off all control knobs and gas cylinder valve immediately until the fire is out.
A leak test must be carried out prior to using the appliance for the first time or each time the gas cylinder is refilled or each time the gas hose and gas regulator being disconnected from the gas cylinders or appliance.
