Please read these instructions carefully before using your OUTDOORCHEF Gas Kettle Barbecue.

OUTDOOR CHEF GENEVA 570 G Kettle Gas BBQ - Fig2

IMPORTANT:
You can find the serial number of your barbecue on the back of the enclosed “Manual & Inspiration” folder. Depending on the barbecue model, you will also find the serial number on the data sticker that is either attached to the barbecue frame or the base plate. The serial number and item number are important to allow the smooth processing of inquiries, orders for spare parts, and any warranty claims. Keep the User Guide in a safe place. It contains important information about safety, operation, and maintenance. Please take note of the serial number of your barbecue in the “Serial No.” field above.

IMPORTANT FOR YOUR SAFETY
Anyone who operates the barbecue must know and follow the ignition process precisely. Children are not allowed to use the barbecue. Follow the assembly instructions in the set-up instructions precisely. Incorrect assembly can have dangerous consequences. Do not position any flammable liquids, materials, or spare gas bottles in the vicinity of the barbecue. Never set up the barbecue or the gas bottle(s) in enclosed rooms without ventilation. Please read these instructions carefully before using your gas kettle barbecue. The barbecue is only allowed to be used outdoors, and it is necessary to maintain a safety clearance of at least 1.5 m from flammable objects.

GAS BOTTLES

Only gas bottles with a maximum net weight of 8 kg are allowed to be placed on the base plate. Position the bottle in the place provided, see SET-UP INSTRUCTIONS.
Use the supplied bottle strap or the gas bottle holder provided in order to secure the gas bottle. Please make sure there are no leaking screw connections. (Fig. 2A)
CHECK FOR LEAKS before use and after each gas bottle change.
Gas bottles are not allowed to be exposed to a temperature of more than 50° C, and must never be stored in an enclosed room or basement.
Comply with and follow the safety regulations that are indicated on the gas bottles used.
NOTE: Check whether the pressure regulator and gas bottle are approved for use in your country. Use only gas bottles that comply with the applicable national standard. The different sealing systems mean that any discrepancy in the pressure regulator and gas bottle systems will prevent the secure closure of the seal. This could result in leakages of gas which could then be ignited by an open fire or a spark. For safety and liability reasons, in all cases, we recommend checking gas barbecues intended for sale and, if required, adapting the pressure regulator and gas hose according to national regulations or arranging for this work to be performed.

SAFETY NOTES
This user guide must be kept by the owner and be close at hand at all times. Take the barbecue into operation in accordance with the INSTRUCTIONS FOR LIGHTING chapter.

“Use outdoors only”
“Read the instructions before using the appliance”
“WARNING: Accessible parts may be very hot. Keep young children away.”
“This appliance must be kept away from flammable materials during use”
“Do not move the appliance during use”
“Turn off the gas supply at the gas cylinder after use”
Never use the barbecue under a canopy.
Do not push appliances with castor wheels over uneven surfaces or steps.
Wear protective gloves when you touch hot parts.
After grilling, always turn the gas regulating knob to the position and close the gas supply at the gas bottle.
When changing the gas bottle, make sure that the gas regulating knob is in position and the gas supply is closed at the gas bottle.
IMPORTANT: No sources of ignition are permitted to be in the vicinity.
After connecting a new gas bottle, check the connection parts in accordance with the instructions in CHECKING FOR LEAKS.
If you suspect that parts are leaking, turn the gas regulating knob to the position and close the gas supply at the gas bottle. Have the parts that carry gas checked at a specialist gas equipment retailer.
Renew the gas hose immediately if it is damaged or displays signs of wear. The hose must be free from kinks and must not have any cracks. Do not forget to switch off the gas regulating knob and the gas supply before you remove the hose.
Renew the hose and the gas pressure regulator after it has been in use for 3 years from the date of purchase. Make sure that the gas pressure regulator and the hose are in accordance with the corresponding EN standards (gas pressure regulator EN 16129 / gas hose EN 16436).
The recommended length of the gas hose is 90 cm, and it must not be longer than 150 cm.
Never block the large round air intake hole on the base of the bowl or the air slots in the lid. The ventilation openings in the gas bottle compartment must never be closed or covered.
“Do not modify the appliance.”
Never modify the gas tap, the safety pilot, the burner or other parts of the barbecue. Contact a specialist if you suspect there is a malfunction.
The barbecue is supplied with the appropriate gas hose and gas pressure regulator. It is essential to keep the gas hose away from the hot outside surfaces of the barbecue. The hose is not allowed to be twisted. On barbecue models that have a hose guide, it is essential for the hose to be secured in this guide.
The hose and regulator are in accordance with the particular national regulations and EN standards (gas pressure regulator EN 16129 / gas hose EN 16436).
Contact a specialist gas equipment retailer if full power is not achieved and you suspect there may be a blockage in the gas supply.
Only use the barbecue on firm, secure ground. Never place the barbecue on wooden floors or other flammable surfaces while it is in use. Keep the barbecue away from flammable materials.
In devices with granite work surfaces, avoid exposing the surface to a temperature shock.
Do not store the barbecue in the vicinity of highly inflammable liquids or materials.
If you store the barbecue indoors over winter, it is essential for the gas bottle to be removed. It should always be stored in a well-ventilated location that is inaccessible to children.
Before using the barbecue, make sure you select a location that affords the greatest possible protection against the wind.
When the barbecue is not in use, make sure it has cooled down fully and then protect it from the weather with a cover. Covers can be purchased from your barbecue retailer.
Remove the cover after heavy rain in order to avoid condensation build-up.
CAUTION: Before using for the first time and always after connecting a new gas bottle, check the connection parts in accordance with the instructions in the LEAK TEST section of this manual.
CAUTION: For safety reasons, the spanner supplied must always be used to secure the gas hose to the barbecue.

Please refer to the following illustration:

CHECKING FOR LEAKS

WARNING: No sources of ignition are permitted to be in the vicinity during the leak test. This also includes smoking. Never check for leaks with a burning match or a naked flame, and always do this task outdoors.

The gas regulating knob must be in position.
Open the gas supply on the bottle and brush the soap-water solution provided or a home-made soap solution comprising 50% liquid soap and 50% water onto all parts that carry gas (connection at the gas bottle/gas pressure regulator/gas hose/gas inlet/connection on the valve). You can also use a leak spray (Fig. 2B).
Bubbles forming in the soap solution indicate there are leaks.
IMPORTANT: Do not use the barbecue before all leaks have been eliminated. Close the gas supply at the gas bottle.
Eliminate the leaks by retightening the connections if possible, or else renew the defective parts.
Repeat steps 1 and 2.
Contact your specialist gas equipment retailer if the leaks cannot be eliminated.

NOTE: Carry out the CHECK FOR LEAKS each time after the gas bottle is connected or changed, and also at the start of the barbecue season.

UNIQUE FUNNEL SYSTEM

From grilling to cooking or baking, in the standard position, the unique OUTDOORCHEF funnel system ensures even heat distribution inside the kettle and prevents harmful flare-ups as the burners are completely shielded.
Rather than catching fire, dripping fat runs along the porcelain-enameled funnel into the collecting tray under the kettle. As the host, you can spend more time with your guests while your barbecue specialties are grilled perfectly all over – with no turning required.
Meat, fish, vegetables, and more stay deliciously juicy, tender or crisp. Some of the fat and meat juice dripping onto the funnel evaporates, which gives meat, fish, vegetables, and more that unmistakable barbecue flavor.
Pizza, tarte flambée, or bread are baked to brick oven quality at up 360 degrees. The left-hand control dial allows you to barbecue food gently at low temperatures around 100 °C (only models with two control dials, e.g. Ascona 570 G) – perfect for tender large joints of meat such as roast beef, tomahawk or rib-eye.
Turning the funnel to the volcano position allows you to work with very high, concentrated heat from below (up to 500 degrees), ideal for OUTDOORCHEF accessories such as the Barbecue Wok, Flavouring Pan or Cast-Iron Griddle Plate.
And because the interior of the gas kettle barbecue stays nice and clean thanks to the funnel, cleaning up afterward is easy.
TIP: to clean the funnel, we recommend heating the barbecue at the highest level for 10 minutes (standard position). Then you can simply brush out the funnel using a brush with brass bristles – We recommend the OUTDOORCHEF Funnel Brush. More information about our accessories is available at: WWW.OUTDOORCHEF.COM
STANDARD POSITION

The standard position is the optimal funnel position for most grilling applications and ensures the unique heat circulation inside the kettle. The food is grilled evenly all over – with no turning necessary. Meat, fish, vegetables and more all stay deliciously juicy, tender or crisp.
The standard position is thus perfect for all kinds of meat, gently grilled fish, gratins, and crunchy vegetables, and also for baking pizza, tarte flambée, or bread.
VOLCANO POSITION

Turning the funnel to the volcano position allows you to work with very high, concentrated heat from below, ideal for OUTDOORCHEF accessories such as the Barbecue Wok, Flavouring Pan, or Cast-Iron Griddle Plate.
This makes the volcano position perfect for flash-grilled food such as tuna steaks, scallops, or wok-fried vegetables.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING THE GAS KETTLE BARBECUE

Place the funnel in the required position (standard or volcano position).
CAUTION: Wear heat-resistant gloves if you want to change the funnel position while grilling.
NOTE: When grilling and cooking in a volcano position at the setting, leave the lid open. The lid can only be kept closed at the – setting when grilling in the volcano position.
Select the appropriate accessories, if required.
Preheat the barbecue with the lid closed for about 10-15 minutes at the setting .
Place the food to be grilled on the barbecue grid and freely control the temperature according to your requirements.
After grilling, always set the gas regulating knob to the position. Then close the gas supply at the gas bottle. The bottle tap must be closed even on empty bottles.

CAUTION: The hot fat collected in the drip pan can cause burn injuries. Allow the fat to cool completely before removing the drip pan. After grilling, allow the barbecue to cool down completely before relocating, moving, or cleaning it.

**TIPS AND TRICKS

BARBECUING WITH THE GAS KETTLE
Standard position

The ideal method for larger joints of meat (e.g. fillet, entrecôte, cutlets, or a whole chicken). Thanks to the unique funnel system, you no longer need to turn larger pieces of meat while barbecuing. The heat from the gas burner rises along the insides of the barbecue kettle and is distributed evenly throughout the kettle. Place the food to be grilled on the preheated barbecue grid and close the lid. Always leave a slight space between pieces of meat. Closing the lid allows the food to be browned evenly on all sides while ensuring the juices stay in the meat.
In order not to leave anything to chance with larger pieces of meat, we recommend using our thermometers, such as the OUTDOORCHEF GOURMET CHECK PRO – this digital meat thermometer ensures perfect results and can be easily controlled using the official OUTDOORCHEF app.
The standard position is also great for baking, to surprise friends and family, for example, with a homemade pizza cooked on our OUTDOORCHEF Pizza Stone, which fits perfectly inside the kettle. Let the Pizza Stone heat up for 20 minutes on the highest setting before baking the pizza – you will be rewarded with a deliciously crispy pizza crust, just like the Italian original.
The right accessories will make your OUTDOORCHEF barbecue even more fun. Whether grilling, cooking or baking: give free rein to your creativity and flair for experimentation.
More information about our wide range of accessories and the app can be found at: WWW.OUTDOORCHEF.COM
Volcano position
This method, in which high heat is directed from below, is ideally suited to the use of OUTDOORCHEF accessories, such as the OUTDOORCHEF Cast-Iron Griddle Plate or the OUTDOORCHEF Barbecue Wok. This position is also ideal for deep frying in the Barbecue Wok, for crispy chips, chicken nuggets, fish & chips, and much more.
ACCESSORY HOLDER KIT FOR MODEL AMBRI 480 G EVO
The practical accessory holder kit for your AMBRI 480 G EVO allows you to secure the gas bottle behind the barbecue on the base plate and cover it with the bottle cover – making the gas bottle almost invisible from the front.
An OUTDOORCHEF pizza stone and an additional OUTDOORCHEF cast iron cooking grid Diamond can also be stored compactly and tidily in the base frame.
The pizza stone and the cast iron cooking grid Diamond are available separately as accessories.

OUTDOOR CHEF GENEVA 570 G Kettle Gas BBQ - GRILLING

AFTER GRILLING

Set the gas regulating knob of each burner .
Close the gas supply at the gas bottle.
Allow the barbecue to cool down fully and clean it.
Protect the barbecue with the corresponding cover.

CLEANING

Only very minor cleaning is required between uses of the barbecue because most of the grease either evaporates or is gathered in the collecting tray.
In case of heavy contamination, heat up the barbecue for about 10 minutes at full power. For cleaning the funnel and the rack, use a barbecue brush with brass bristles (not steel bristles).
For more thorough cleaning, use the OUTDOORCHEF CHEF CLEANER. Alternatively, you can use a nylon kitchen sponge and soapy water in order to remove all loose residues.
IMPORTANT: After each thorough cleaning, leave the barbecue burning at the setting to allow it to dry out completely (burn out).
USING THE OUTDOORCHEF CHEF CLEANER
IMPORTANT: the barbecue must not be operated while using the OUTDOORCHEF CHEF CLEANER.
Wear gloves and glasses for protection. Spray the barbecue or accessory while still slightly warm and leave the product to work for 10 minutes until the foam has dissolved.
If required, clean off any remaining residue using a suitable barbecue brush or a nylon sponge. Then rinse thoroughly with water and dry.
WARNING: Not suitable for wood, plastic, powder-coated, or varnished surfaces.

MAINTENANCE

Regular maintenance of your barbecue will ensure it functions correctly.

At least twice a year, check all parts that carry gas; also check them after long periods of storage. Spiders and other insects can cause blockages that must be cleared before
use.
If the barbecue is regularly pushed across uneven ground, check from time to time whether all screws are still tight.
If you have not used the barbecue for a long period, you should carry out a CHECK FOR LEAKS before using it again. If you have any doubts, please contact your gas supplier or the retailer.
To prevent damage due to corrosion, oil all metal parts before lengthy storage.
Following lengthy storage, and at least once a year during the barbecue season, you should check the gas hose for cracks, kinks, and other damage. A damaged gas hose must be renewed immediately, as described in the SAFETY NOTES chapter.
We recommend the following so you will be able to enjoy your barbecue for as long as possible:
Once a year, apply wood oil to all wooden parts – this helps to prevent cracking.
Once your barbecue has cooled down fully, protect it against the effects of the weather using a suitable OUTDOORCHEF cover.
Remove the cover after rain in order to prevent condensation build-up. Covers can be purchased from your barbecue retailer.

TROUBLESHOOTING

The burner does not light:

Check if the gas supply is open at the gas bottle.
Make sure there is enough gas in the bottle.
Check if sparks are passing between the electrode and the burner.
No spark:
Make sure that the battery has been inserted correctly (in barbecues with electric ignition).
The distance between the burner and electrode is only allowed to be 5–8 mm.
Check whether the cables of the electric ignition and the electrode are plugged in and firmly connected.
Insert a new battery (type AAA, LR03, 1.5 volts) in the electric ignition (in barbecues with electric ignition).

Please contact the retailer if you cannot get the barbecue to operate with reference to the measures above.
