Goldair GBQB220 2 Burner BBQ with Turbo Zone Instruction Manual

Goldair GBQB220 2 Burner BBQ with Turbo Zone

SPIDER AND INSECT WEBS

Extremely important please read
Sometimes spiders, ants and other insects climb into the tube burners, gas lines and other areas of the BBQ. The insects can spin webs, build nests and lay eggs. The webs or nests can be very small, but they are very strong and can block the flow of gas.
To avoid this occurring, clean burners prior to use, after storing, at the beginning of your BBQ season or after a period of one month without use.
Guards are on the air intakes in an effort to reduce this problem, but it will not eliminate it. An obstruction can result in a “flashback” (a fire in the burner tubes).
The burner may still light, but the obstruction does not allow full gas flow to the burners.
NOTE: Complications arising from spider and insect webs build up inside gas lines and tube burners are expressly excluded from the Warranty

• Caution: hood may be hot, so avoid contact.

• Warning all surfaces are hot.

If your BBQ has any Stainless Steel please note the following:
Note: Stainless Steel will rust.
Failure to store with a BBQ cover, and to clean & maintain your BBQ regularly will result in Stainless Steel ‘tea staining’ & rusting. Consequently, it will not be covered by the warranty. Goldair recommends the use of stainless steel protectors & cleaners to also prolong the life of your BBQ.
For use with ULPG. Please refer to your user manual.

GAS LEAK TESTING

It is important that you leak test the BBQ before first use and every time the gas cylinder is refilled and reconnected to the BBQ.

When to Test:
The BBQ gas bottle, regulator & hose assembly should be checked for leaks, using the soapy water leak test, every time you reconnect your regulator to the BBQ gas bottle. You should also test after any long period of non-use, such as at the beginning of BBQ season.

What to use:
You will need a soapy water solution to check for any leaks. Mixing liquid hand soap with water will work fine (do not use any other household cleaning products).
To complete a Leak Test:

• Make sure all the control knobs are OFF.

• In a small container, mix up a solution of water and detergent/soap.
  Mix the solution well (about the same concentration as washing up water).

• Turn the cylinder ON by rotating the knob to the open position.

• Using a brush or spray bottle apply the soap solution to the gas line and each join in the gas line including:

• The gas connection at the inlet of the BBQ

• The gas hose

• The gas connection at the gas cylinder

• If bubbles appear, there is a gas leak.

• If the leak is at the connection, re-tighten and re-seal.

• If the leak is anywhere else or you cannot resolve the leak by tightening the connection
  DO NOT PROCEED.

• Replace gas hose and regulator.

• Replacement hose and regulators can be purchased from your local BBQ retail specialist

Safety Guide

• Do not operate this BBQ before reading the instruction booklet.
• Do not place articles on or against this BBQ.
• Do not use or store flammable or combustible materials, chemicals or spray aerosols near your BBQ.
• Do not operate this BBQ indoors; the BBQ is for outdoor use only.
• Do not obstruct any ventilation of the BBQ.
• Do not light or operate with cover on.
• Never store a spare ULPG cylinder under or near your BBQ. This could cause excess pressure to be expelled through the relief valve resulting in fire, explosion, or severe personal injury including death.
• ULPG gas is heavier than air and will collect in low areas, proper ventilation is extremely important.
• Keep the ventilation opening of the ULPG cylinder enclosure free and clear from obstruction and debris.
• Do not insert any foreign objects into the valve outlet. Damage may result, causing a leak, possible explosion, fire, severe bodily harm or death.
• Children and adults should be alerted to the hazards of high surface temperature, burns and clothing ignition.
• Never leave children unattended in the area where the BBQ is being used.
• Do not store items of interest to children around, below or in the shelf of the BBQ.
• Never allow children to sit or stand on any part of the BBQ.
• Some users prefer cooking on Hotplates. You must always have at least 1 Grill plate to ensure adequate airflow. Fully covering your BBQ will create a safety hazard.
• PLEASE RETAIN THIS MANUAL FOR FUTURE USE

Always choose a safe location for the BBQ, keeping in mind the safety precautions outlined. Ensure all packaging has been removed from the unit before use.

NOTE
This BBQ shall only be used in an above-ground open-air situation with natural ventilation, without stagnant areas, where gas leakage and products of combustion are rapidly dispersed by wind and natural convection.
Any enclosure in which the BBQ is used shall comply with one of the following:
An enclosure with walls on all sides, but at least one permanent opening at ground level and no overhead cover. (Refer to Figure 1).
Within a partial enclosure that includes an overhead cover and no more than two walls.(Refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3).
Within a partial enclosure that includes an overhead cover and more than two walls, the following shall apply:

• At least 25% of the total wall area is completely open, (refer to Figure 4), and
• At least 30% of the remaining wall area is open and unrestricted, (refer to Figure 5) In the case of balconies, at least 20% of the total wall area shall be and remain open and
  unrestricted.

A strong gas smell or hissing sound of escaping gas indicates a serious problem with the BBQ or ULPG cylinder. Failure to immediately follow the steps listed below could result in a fire or explosion that could cause serious injury, death or property damage.

• Shut off gas supply at the cylinder
• Turn the control knobs of the BBQ to the off position
• Extinguish any open flame
• Open the BBQ hood
• Get away from the ULPG cylinder
• Do not try and fix the problem yourself
• If the gas odor continues or you cannot extinguish the fire, call fire brigade

To prevent fire and smoke damage, remove all packaging material before operating BBQ.
HOSE ASSEMBLY AND SAFETY
A leak test (Procedure located on Page 3 of this manual) must be carried out prior to using the BBQ for the first time and each time the gas cylinder is refilled, or each time the gas hose and gas regulator has been disconnected. Check all gas hose and line connections for damage, cuts or cracks each time you use the BBQ.
If the hose shows signs of deterioration or damage, complete a leak test to identify any leaks and if required replace the hose.
The hose must remain free of kinks and sharp bends. Never puncture or put stress on the hose or fittings. The hose connection is located at the lower front area on the right side wall of the main body of the BBQ.
Replacement hose and regulators can be purchased from your local BBQ retail specialist. The leak Test procedure is located on Page 3 of this manual.

Operating your BBQ

• Never leave burners on high for more than 10 minutes unless actually cooking. If the burner makes hissing sounds when lit, it may be burning inside. Turn burner off, allow it to cool and try again.
• Close the gas cylinder valve after each use.
• Never use plastic or glass utensils on the BBQ
• Never use the BBQ in strong winds
• Never lay the gas cylinder down (always keep it upright)
• Never allow the flexible gas supply hose or any electrical cord to come in contact with any heated surface of the BBQ.
• Never lean heavily on the side shelves of your BBQ or attempt to transport your BBQ by lifting it from the side shelves.
• Before you start cooking for the first time, clean the BBQ thoroughly with hot soapy water. This is necessary to remove residuals and solvents, oil and grease, which may have remained from the manufacturing process. The hotplate and grill should be thoroughly cleaned in the same manner.

The Turbo Zone (control knob with the red ring) will reach a higher temperature in a quicker time making it perfect for cooking excellent steaks. It is easy to operate, simply turn the red control up and the searing process of your steak can begin.

• Grilling in different heat zones enables a perfect result for any type of meat.
• Freely controllable grill zone with strong, direct heat for perfect steaks.
• Economical consumption
• From zero to maximum temperature in seconds, clearly recognizable by the visible red glowing stainless steel mesh of the flame tamer.

Operating your BBQ

Lighting the BBQ
Lighting the BBQ is easy, but must be done with due care.
Make sure that the gas is turned on at the cylinder, or that gas is available to the BBQ. Also, if your BBQ has a roasting hood, ensure that the hood is up.

Spark Ignition
Push the knob control in and turn anticlockwise to the high position. You should hear clicking as the ignitor creates sparks to light the gas. Once lit, release the knob control button.

Manual Ignition
You can light your BBQ manually by holding a lit match next to one of the burners using the match holder, while the burner is on low. You can access the burners through the grill of your BBQ with the match holder.

Difficulty lighting
If the burner doesn’t light first go, check the gas controls and try a couple more times. If the burner still does not light, wait a few minutes to allow the gas to disperse before trying again. If a satisfactory operation cannot be achieved, consult your retailer before proceeding.
Note: Failure to follow the lighting procedures correctly can lead to hazardous conditions.

Controlling the flames
The knobs have three basic positions: Off, High and Low. You can achieve any flame height between low and high by rotating the BBQ control knob between these positions.

Checking the flame
Look underneath the BBQ so that you can see the flames. They should be a soft blue color with yellow tips. If the flames are too yellow, there is too much gas and not enough air. The flame will be inefficient and will give off too much smoke. If the flame is too pale, there is too much air and not enough gas. If either of these situations occur you may need to clean the burners (See the ‘Maintenance’ section of this manual).
Note: ‘Blowback’ is a situation where the flame burns inside the burner, toward the front. It can be recognized by a sharp roaring sound coming from the burner. It is not dangerous unless it is allowed to persist. If this occurs, simply turn the burner off, wait a few seconds then relight it.

Before first use – Curing the cast iron
During manufacturing, the cooking surfaces (plates and grills) were coated with non-toxic paint. If the paint is missing in small areas this is not a fault. This paint will come off completely over time. Its purpose is to help protect your BBQ during transport and storage. Coat the top of the hotplates and grills with canola oil or something similar. Light the BBQ as described earlier. Leave the BBQ with all burners on low for about 30 minutes. The paint may come off at this time.
Now clean the surfaces with water and a brush. Be careful of steam coming off the cast iron surface while doing this. The hotplates and grills are now cured and ready for use. This process only needs to be done the first time you use the BBQ. For ongoing protection of the cooking surfaces, follow the procedures in the ‘Maintenance’ section of this manual.

Controlling flare up
Flare-ups are sudden bursts of flame that come up over the top of the grill. They are caused by natural cooking juices from your food falling onto the flame tamer and then burning. A little bit of flare-up, as well as the resulting smoke, is a good thing. It’s what gives BBQ food that unique outdoor flavor. But if it happens too often, or if the flame last more than a couple of seconds, your food will char, so you need to control it.
First of all, cooking very fatty foods will cause a lot of flare up. You should trim excess fat off your meat. Also, excess flaring usually means your controls are up too high. Try turning them down.
Finally, moving the meat away from flaring will help reduce the problem. Some really fatty foods can only be cooked on a hot plate.

Turning off
When you’ve finished cooking, leave the burner controls on high for a maximum of 5 minutes to burn off excess grease from the flame tamer, the burner and other surfaces. To turn the BBQ off, it is best to turn the cylinder off first, and allow the gas left in the hose to burn off. This will only take a couple of seconds. Then turn off all burner controls. If your BBQ is connected to piped LPG, you can simply turn the burner controls off. It’s okay to leave the cylinder connected to your BBQ while it’s not in use.
Note: Failure to follow these shutdown procedures correctly can lead to hazardous conditions.

Cooking with your BBQ

Avoid burning or charring food as this has been shown to be unhealthy.
Don’t leave cooked food standing for too long before eating.
Keeping your food moist
It’s easy to keep food moist and succulent on a BBQ by following these guidelines:

• Use tongs instead of a fork when turning meat and poultry. A fork pierces the flesh and causes the juice to seep out.
• Resist the temptation to keep turning meat over. Juices tend to rise to the top of a piece of meat, then settle. Each time you turn the meat over, the juices are lost. It’s better to quickly sear the meat on both sides (about half a minute) then with the burner controls down low, leave the meat cook on one side, turning only once before serving.
• If you like salt with your food, try adding it at the end instead of before or during cooking. Salt draws the natural moisture out of the food and dries it out.
• Baste the food with light marinade or canola oil a couple of times while cooking, though watch out for excessive flare-ups.

How covered cooking works
Place the food you wish to roast on one side of the BBQ. Turn on the burners that are not directly underneath the food. Make sure the burners that are directly under the food are turned off. This way the food receives no direct heat.
Moist, hot air rises from the burners and circulates around the food, trapping the juices and flavor.
Best results are achieved by using a roasting rack and drip pan.

Cooking times
Keeping the hood closed traps the heat, moisture and flavor that is normally lost on an open-top BBQ. The result is that food cooks considerably faster, using less gas, and with a juicier, more even finish. Foods require less attention and less basting because the heat is less intense and moisture is more easily retained.

Grilling
Food may be cooked in about 3/4 the usual oven cooking time, producing well- browned surfaces while still maintaining the foods natural juices.
Roasting
Larger joints of meat achieve similar results as in a conventional oven, except in about 2/3 the usual oven cooking time due to the natural convection effect created by the hood.

Tips
Although cooking on the plate looks easier, cooking on the Grill gives you a more authentic BBQ flavor. Natural juices drip onto the flame tamer then vaporize, with the vapors penetrating back into the food.
As an alternative to simply grilling, try marinating your meat, fish, poultry or vegetables first. The longer you leave the food to stand in the marinade, the more thoroughly the flavor will soak through. Several pre-made marinades are available and good recipes are easy to come by. It is best to leave food standing in the refrigerator.
If you use a tomato or sugar-based sauce for basting, apply it in the last 5–10 minutes of cooking. Using these sauces over a longer period of time will result in over-browning.
To prevent meat from curling, slash the remaining fat at roughly 5cm intervals, taking care not to cut into the meat.

Maintenance

On-going Maintenance
Interior:

Plates and Grills
The best way to clean your BBQ plates/grills is to light up the BBQ and leave it on with the hood down to warm up for 10-15 minutes. After this time, remove excess fat, oils, and cooking residue with paper towels or a cotton rag from plates/grills then take a long-handled brush and a scraper and remove the remaining oil and food scraps. You should use an oven mitt to avoid burning yourself. This can also be completed after each time you use your BBQ.
Depending on how often you use your BBQ you should also wash your plates/grills bi-monthly. After you have completed the steps above and have allowed time for the BBQ to cool, remove the plates/grills and wash with warm/hot soapy water. Wash off soapy water with warm/hot clean water, leave to air dry thoroughly and then lightly coat the plates/grills with canola oil before placing back into the BBQ.
Warming Rack, Flame Tamers
Remove and wash with warm/hot soapy water. Wash off soapy water with warm/hot clean water, leave to air dry, and place back into BBQ. For stubborn stains on your warming rack, soak in hot soapy water.

The Drip Tray
It is a good idea to line the fat tray with aluminum foil to assist with cleaning. Also, placing absorbent material into the drip tray will avoid splashing and overflowing. The suitable absorbent material is available from your retailer. You should change the fat-absorbent material regularly. Keep the drip tray clean to prevent a build-up of grease. If you don’t do this a fat fire can result. This can be quite dangerous, and will certainly void the Warranty on your BBQ.
Use caution when handling your Drip Tray, some trays have sharp edges.

Burners
Over time fat, marinades, juices, etc. can build up and cover the port holes in your burners. This reduces gas and flame flow and may result in fires within the BBQ during cooking. Leaving the burners on for a maximum of 5 minutes with the hood open after you’ve finished cooking will remove most of this. However, you should check the burners periodically for any sort of blockage. In particular, you should ensure that the aeration vents are free of insect nests and spider webs. To clean the burners, let them cool down, then remove and inspect them. If any of the holes are clogged, gently tap the burner onto a hard surface to remove residue. Use a wire brush to unclog the holes. Then lightly coat the burners with canola oil for ongoing protection

• Do not perform any repair or service on the BBQ yourself. This includes internal adjustment of the regulator and gas valves. This must only be carried out by authorized technicians. Your BBQ should be serviced annually by a certified gas service agent.
• Clean the drip tray regularly.
• “Burning off” the BBQ after every use (for approx 15 minutes) will keep excessive food residue to a minimum.
• The pressure regulator and hose assembly supplied with the BBQ must be used. Replacement pressure regulator and hose assembly must be those specified by the manufacturer. Replacement parts may be obtained from the manufacturer or your local BBQ retail specialist.
• Storage of this BBQ indoors is permissible only if the cylinder is disconnected and removed from the BBQ.
• Please note that the Goldair BBQ Cover (if supplied with this model) is not covered under your Warranty. The BBQ is for portable outdoor use and is not intended for permanent installation or installation in vehicles or boats.

Storing your BBQ
Your BBQ is designed to be used outdoors. However, just like a car, you will prolong the life of the BBQ if you store it out of direct exposure to the elements when not in use.
This can be done in many ways including the use of a waterproof cover. These are available from most BBQ retailers.

BBQ Covers
All BBQs must be stored with a BBQ cover when not in use (regardless of whether the BBQ is stainless steel or powder coated) as per the Warranty. After use, allow your BBQ to cool completely before fitting the cover (the BBQ cover may melt or burn if placed onto a hot BBQ). Also condensation can occur when the BBQ cools down under the cover which can foster rust growth. Please note, a cover can foster a “micro-environment” where moisture, salts and fat deposits can develop when stored for long periods of time (typically this will occur during the Winter months when your BBQ is not used). During these longer periods of non-use, a BBQ can develop stains and/or rust marks. It is important to check regularly (monthly) for any signs of these stains/rust and clean if needed. If surface stains and rust are left, over time they develop and can become very hard to remove, this is expressly excluded from your Warranty.

• Move the BBQ to a covered location. If you are storing it in a closed room (eg shed or garage) you should keep the cylinder away from any other cylinders or any cars, boats, motorcycles or any other petrol engines.
• If you don’t intend to use it for a few months, lightly spray all the surfaces with canola oil. This will help protect against corrosion.
  Rust on your BBQ from lack of protective agents or misuse are expressly excluded from Warranty.
