Connecting gas to the grill
Information about liquefied gas
Before you can use the grill, you must purchase a liquified gas cylinder, low-
pressure regulator and gas hose. These are not included in the grill delivery.
Liquified petroleum gas (LPG) is an extremely flammable substance stored in
pressurized liquified gas cylinders. Liquified gas cylinders are available in
weights of 5 kg11 kg. Ensure that your cylinder is not dented or rusty, and
that its valve is not damaged. Always carry and transport liquified gas
cylinders in an upright position and securely attached. In household use, a
gas cylinder must have a maximum height of 615 mm and diameter of 310 mm.
The gas is directed from the cylinder to the grill through a low-pressure
regulator and a hose. The low-pressure regulator helps the gas flow evenly
into the grill.
Installing the gas hose
1. Check the condition of the gas hose.
2. Ensure that all control knobs on the grill are turned to OFF.
3. Ensure that the grill’s hose chuck is fastened tightly (A).
4. Insert the gas hose tightly into the hose chuck, as far in as it goes (B).
5. Fasten the hose to the hose chuck using a hose clip (C).
6. Insert the other end of the gas hose into the hose chuck in the low-
pressure regulator (D).
7. Fasten the hose to the hose chuck using a hose clip (E).
The pressure regulator to be attached to the
cylinder must not be adjustable, and its
EN
operating pressure must be 30 mbar.
The length of the gas cylinder may be 1.2 m at the maximum, and its thickness 10 mm at the maximum (note: in Sweden, max. 8 mm).
The pressure regulator must be manufactured in accordance with the EN16129 standard. In the pressure regulator, the operating pressure is marked according to the nominal pressure, 29 mbar.
The gas hose must be manufactured in accordance with the EN16436 standard.

3. Wet all valves, hose connections, regulator connections, cylinder
connections and welding seams with a soapy water solution (30% dishwashing
liquid or liquid soap and 70% water). You can wet the parts by brushing or
spraying them.
4. Watch carefully if bubbles appear in any part. Bubbles indicate a gas
leak.
5. If bubbles appear, shut the gas flow off and fasten the connections in the
parts where you see bubbles.
6. If bubbles appear in the middle of the hose or at the cylinder, replace
the part in question.
7. Open the gas flow and perform the leak test again.
8. Rinse the soapy water off with clean water to prevent corrosion.
Do not use the grill if you are unable to fix the gas leaks. In this case,
disconnect the pressure regulator from the gas cylinder and contact the
service/sales company.

Testing for liquefied gas leaks
The inspection of potential gas leaks must be done every time the cylinder,
regulator or hose is replaced. The leak test must also be performed regularly
once a year, and especially after longer storage periods. Perform the leak
test by following the instructions below:
1. Open the hood of the grill and make sure that the controls of the burners
are turned to OFF.
2. Open the low-pressure regulator.
29
Using the grill
Measures to perform before using the product for the first time
After the leak test, the grease used during factory storage must be burned off
from the grill before it can be used. You can burn off the storage grease by
following the instructions below:
1. Open the hood of the grill and ignite all burners according to the
ignition instructions.
2. Set the burners to and let them burn for 5 minutes with the hood open.
3. Close the hood and keep the burners at for 10 minutes.
4. Turn the burners to OFF and close the gas flow.
5. Let the grill cool down for 15 minutes.
Measures to perform before each use
To operate the grill safely and appropriately, you need to perform a few
checks before each use. Carefully go through the checklist below:
1. Check that the grill is placed correctly and there are no flammable
materials or liquids in the immediate vicinity of the grill.
2. Check that the gas hose is not cracked or torn (A).
3. Check that the low-pressure regulator is fastened tightly (B).
4. Check that the grill’s bottom, grease tray, heat distributor plates and
burners are clean of grease and marinade. By doing this, you can prevent
grease fires.
6. Clean the grilling grids with a grill-cleaning brush.
5. Check that the burner holes are not covered by insect nests or webs (C).
7. Grease the grilling grids with cooking oil.
6. Check that there are no bristles from grill brush-
EN
es stuck to the grill or grids.
When burning off the storage grease, the grill
may produce unpleasant smoke. This is normal; the smoke will vanish once the storage grease has been burned out.
Do not use the grill if the gas hose is damaged or the grill is missing parts.

Checking the flames
Always check the flame when turning the grill on. The burners have been
optimized at the factory, but the small holes on them attract insects to nest
and make webs on the burners. When the burners are burning properly, only the
tip of the flame is occasionally yellow (A) and the flame’s color changes from
light blue (B) to dark blue from the top down (C).
Small flame

If the flame is not burning properly, check and clean the burner. If the
burner is damaged, it must be replaced before continuing to use the grill.
Flame moving
In windy weather, the wind may move the flame from the burners to the air
supply hole, in which case the flame will burn under the control panel. This
may damage the control panel, control knobs or valves. The flame also makes an
unusual sound if it moves, so if you hear unusual buzzing or similar, do the
following:
1. Shut off the gas flow from the low-pressure regulator.
2. Turn all controls to OFF.
3. Open the hood of the grill.
4. Remove the pressure regulator from the gas cylinder.
5. Move the grill to a more sheltered location.
The warranty does not cover damage caused by the moving flame.
Flame flaring up
The flame flaring up occasionally is a normal reaction in a gas grill. It also
adds taste to the food. If the flame flares up often, the grill’s inner
temperature increases and more grease drops from the food being grilled. In
turn, these phenomena increase the risk of grease fires. This is why the
flaring should be prevented through measures taken in advance:
1. Remove extra grease from the meat before grilling it.
2. Aim to grill meat at the correct temperature.
3. Check that there is no excess grease or pieces of food on the grease tray.
4. Ensure that the heat distributor plates are clean of grease.
5. Grill with the hood closed as often as possible.
When you grill with the hood closed, the grill’s temperature will be more even
and it will consume less gas. The closed hood also helps maintain moisture
inside the grill, thanks to which the food does not dry up as easily.
Useful tips
General instructions for grilling
Direct and indirect grilling
Grilling is very easy and relaxing once you keep a few rules in mind and make
use of these general grilling instructions:
· The grill must heat up properly. Once the grids are sufficiently hot, food
sticks to them less and the foods get a proper grilled surface.
· Do not grill with dirty supplies. Old marinades and food scraps easily stick
to the grid and the food. Clean the grill and the grids after each use. This
way, they are ready for the next grilling session.
With a gas grill with multiple burners, you can make use of direct and
indirect grilling. In general, smaller and softer foods are grilled at direct
heat. Indirect grilling is usually used for large foods that need to be
grilled longer, such as full roasts, chicken and fish. Indirect grilling is
also used for preparing pieces of meat that have been seared through direct
heat. See instructions for grilling at a direct or indirect heat below.
Settings for direct grilling
· Ensure that all necessary supplies, seasonings, marinades and dishes are close before you start grilling.
· Grill with the hood closed as often as possible. When you grill with the hood closed, the grill’s temperature does not decrease unnecessarily, and grilling is quicker.
· Flip the meats as little as possible; once is suf-
EN
ficient. When the food is allowed to cook slowly
on the grill/grid, it gets a nicely seared surface.
· Use a thermometer! If you grill the food for too long, the food will become
dry and lose its flavor. You can achieve the best results if you also get a
meat thermometer.
· Let the meat settle for 1020 minutes before cutting/serving it. While the
meat settles, its temperature becomes more even and the juices do not flow out
excessively when cutting the meat.

Heat levels of the cooking areas
Conventional and common gas burners (pipe/plate burners) cause the grilling
area to have uneven temperatures. This should be seen as a feature rather than
a bug. The general rule is that the back of the grilling area (A) is hotter
than the front (B). The cool area at the front is caused by the Venturi tube
connected to the burner. In this tube, gas and air are mixed into a compound
suitable for burning. The flame does not burn inside the Venturi tube.
Mustang also offers gas grill models where the grilling surface has more even
temperature areas. These grills use U burners or separate burners where the
Venturi tube structure is exceptionally in the middle of the burner. Thanks to
these solutions, the flame also burns at the front of the burner.
The heating grid at the back of the grill (C) is cooler, so you can use it to
keep food warm or slowly cook it at indirect heat.
Marinades
The use of marinades is very common in grilling. Their purpose is to season
the grilled food to taste. However, marinades also cause the food to stick to
the grids. Similarly, oily marinades may spill on the burners and cause the
flame to flare up, or even cause grease fires. With these few tips, you can
reduce the problems caused by marinades:
1. Try to wipe extra marinade off the food before putting them on the grill.
2. If you add marinade during the grilling, always use a cooking brush. Do
not pour the marinade on the food straight from a bottle.
3. Opt for dry rubs during grilling.
Do not use leftover marinade from preparing raw meat to season cooked food. In
this case, the bacteria from the raw meat will transfer to the cooked food.

Preventing food from sticking to the grill
Food sticking to the grill or grid is a common phenomenon for all barbecue
cooks. Here are a few tips to avoid excessive sticking:
1. Remember to pre-heat the grill so that it is sufficiently hot.
2. Clean the grids before putting food on the grill.
3. Spread oil on the grilling surface and the food to be grilled before
putting it on the grill.
4. Do not flip the food on the grill too quickly; let the surface be grilled
properly.

If the grill does not heat up sufficiently or food sticks excessively to the grids, the grill has not been cleaned or maintained as instructed. Perform the following maintenance measures after each use.
Grease tray and cup
An unclean grease tray is the most common cause of grease fires. If you see
pieces of food or marinade on the grease tray or cup, you must clean the
tray/cup immediately by following the instructions below. The grease tray must
not have pools of grease on it.
Grilling grids
If food or marinade is stuck on the grill or grid, do the following:
1. Check that the grill is turned off.
1. Check that the grill is turned off.

Other grill components
Storage
In addition to the components mentioned above, the grill also has many other
steel parts that need to be cleaned regularly. You can follow the general
instructions below for cleaning such components:
1. Clean the steel parts of the grill with Mustang grill cleaning fluid,
Mustang stainless steel cleaning liquid or mild dishwashing liquid and a
cloth.
2. Do not forget to dry the cleaned parts carefully.
3. Do not use detergents for cleaning the control panels and the surfaces
with warning labels, as they may remove the text or other labels.

If the grill includes wooden parts, they must be cleaned and maintained as
follows:
1. Clean all wooden parts regularly by wiping them with a damp cloth and mild
soap and water mixture.
2. Dry the cleaned surfaces carefully.
4. Ensure that all grill grids are greased.
5. If storing the grill outdoors, remove the burners, grids, heating grid and heat distributor plates from the grill. These parts need to be stored in a dry and warm space. It is also recommended that you wrap these parts into newspapers or similar so that the surfaces do not get scratched.
6. Remove the low-pressure regulator from the gas cylinder.
7. Always store the gas cylinder outdoors and en-
sure that it is not exposed to heat or sunlight.
8. If the grill is stored outdoors, it is recommended

that you purchase a high-quality cover for it that
covers it all the way down. Ensure that air can
circulate even under the cover.
Do not store the grill in a place where snow dropping from the roof can hit it. The warranty does not cover damage caused by snow and ice.
3. Treat the wooden parts with generally available colorless wood oil intended for outdoor furniture at least twice a year. This will prevent the wooden parts from drying and cracking.
4. Before the actual treatment, test the wood oil and any other conditioners in a small, inconspicuous area to ensure their suitability. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions when treating wooden parts.
