Ignition system check

Problem: Burner will not ignite

Problem: Burner will not ignite

Possible Reason| Solution
Valve on cylinder is closed| Open valve on cylinder
Control knob is off| Turn knob to high when lighting
Igniter is faulty| Use a long barbecue match

Lighting With Match
If needed you can light burners using a match and the provided holder. The holder can be found chained to the inside of the right-hand door where your gas cylinder is located.

To Use:

  1. Locate the holder.
  2. Place match into holder end.
  3. Light match and carefully position near the selected burner.
  4. Turn the selected gas valve and light burner.

IMPORTANT

  • NOTE: If for some reason, the ignitor fails to produce a spark at the electrode, the barbecue can be lit by a long barbecue match. With the hood open insert a lighted match into the 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 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 THE 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.

  • When the hood is in closed position, use only the outside 2 burners or the rear burner. The temperature should never exceed 250 degrees.

  • DO NOT OPERATE THE MAIN & REAR BURNERS SIMULTANEOUSLY.

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 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.

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 the barbecue during use and until the 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 near 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 labelled ‘Propane Gas’ or ‘Universal
  • L.P.G’. Check labelling 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 the burner control to ‘OFF’ and let the barbecue cool before attempting to clean the cooking surface. 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 are 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 the touch before disposing of the contents.
  • The drip tray should be washed periodically in a mild detergent and warm water solution.

General Cleaning of Painted Surface

  • When cleaning your BBQ use a mild dish soap combined with warm water and a microfiber cloth to clean the surface. Then rinse your BBQ with clean water.
  • Note: Never use steel wool or any hard cleaning pad on any painted and stainless steel surface, as it can cause surface damage.

If not in use, turn off the gas from the source. After cleaning and when it is dry, spray some canola oil over the whole BBQ surface and wipe off the excess with a microfiber cloth to enhance the surface protection. Then cover the BBQ with a BBQ cover and store it in a dry
place.

CARE AND CLEANING OF STAINLESS STEEL

  • Stainless steel parts of this appliance are made from 304 & 430-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 appliance’s 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 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 saltwater 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 completely 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.

Routine Care

  • After each use allow the appliance to cool then wipe over with a soft, damp, soapy cloth. (DO NOT USE CLEANERS CONTAINING CHLORIDE). Finally wipe over with a soft, damp cloth. Be sure to wipe off food particles and cooking residues, some marinates and oils can be acid 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 many propriety 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 to still clean it regularly and keep it covered from the elements, either by using a purpose 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 purpose 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.

Stubborn Stains and Corrosion Spots

  • Stubborn stains, discolouration, and ‘Tea Staining’ can occur from insufficient cleaning, excessive spillage from cooking, severe environmental conditions and extreme cooking conditions.
  • There are propriety stainless steel cleaners available that are designed for such instances. Read the instructions carefully before using.

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 the gas off at the control knobs and gas cylinder.

  2. Remove cooking grates and grease tray.

  3. Remove the clip at the end of the burner.

  4. Carefully lift each burner up and away from valve openings.
    CAUTION: Inspect the burner for any damage (cracks or holes). If damage is found, replace it with a new burner. Reinstall the burner, and 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 lightweight 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), and 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 airports. Check each port to make sure air comes out of each hole.
  5. Wire brush the entire outer surface of the burner to remove food residue and dirt.

  6. Clean any blocked ports with a stiff wire such as an open paper clip.

  7. Check the burner for damage, due to normal wear and corrosion some holes may become enlarged. If any large cracks or holes are found replace the burner.

  8. Carefully refit burners, ensuring they are located on the gas valve.

  9. Replace the clip at the end of the burner.

  10. Replace the grease tray and cooking grates.

WARNING

  • Beware of spiders and wasps. The burner tube should be inspected and cleaned periodically.
  • To avoid any flare-ups, it is recommended that the drip tray be checked and emptied regularly. The 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 valves immediately until the fire is out.
  • A leak test must be carried out before using the appliance for the first time or each time the gas cylinder is refilled or each time the gas hose and gas regulator are disconnected from the gas cylinders or appliance.

ENGINEERED STONE

  • Available evidence suggests engineered stones such as bench tops do not pose a safety risk after installation in your home or alfresco, as long as they remain undisturbed. Health and safety risks may arise if silica dust is generated during any modification, repair, or removal work.
  • You mustn’t undertake DIY work with engineered stone. You should contact a qualified tradesperson if any modifications to, or removal of engineered stone such as bench tops are already in place. The tradesperson must use control measures to minimise the generation of dust and must wear respiratory protection.
  • If the engineered stone becomes damaged or cracked, we recommend that it is replaced as you potentially may be exposed to silica dust.
