BORMANN BBQ4500 Gas BBQ Grill Superb 4+1 Gas Burner

WARNING
IMPORTANT NOTICE

1. For safe and proper operation, use only LPG cylinders intended for domestic use which are equipped with a safety valve. Also, you should connect the low pressure regulator 30 mbar (not adjustable) with the valve of the bottle and the special hose for LPG appliances taking care that no leak or damage to the circuit occurs.
2. The threads of the pressure regulator are counterclockwise.
3. Never and under no circumstances should you leave the grill unattended.
4. If a lot of flames are created that do not extinguish by themselves, close the gas bottle. If you let the fire burn then there is a possibility that the paint of the grill will burn. Before each warm-up you should have cleaned the fat collector, the heat dissipators (flame tamers) and the rest of the grill from fats, as they can ignite and destroy the grill.
5. Heat dissipators (flame tamers) must be cleaned after each use as well as the fat collection pan by immersing in hot water with dishwashing liquid. Do not scrape surfaces when they have glued fats because their paint breaks down.
6. In the case of extensive creation of flames caused from fats in the heat dissipators (flame tubes) deterioration in porce-lain dye might occur.
7. If the model you purchased has cast-off grills, do not pour cold water when it is still hot as it may break.
8. Do not use caustic liquids or cleaning sprays.
9. Read the instructions carefully!
10. Any damage caused by non-compliance with the above or failure to comply with the necessary regular cleaning shall not be covered by the warranty.

Operating instructions

Caution: The lid must be open when lighting the burner!
Do not stand with your face directly over the gas grill when lighting it.

Your gas grill will have following method of ignition:

• Pilot Gas Control Ignition (Main burner or main burner with side burner): With all gas controls on the Gas grill in the “OFF” position “OFF”, turn the gas cylin-der valve to the on position at the regulator. To create a spark you must press the control knob (A) and hold in this position for 3-5 seconds to allow gas flow and then turn anticlockwise to” HIGH” (B). It can spark to the burner lighting tube (C). You will hear a “snap” from the igniter and you will also see a orange flame coming from the burner lighting tube at the left side of the burner (D).
• Continue to hold the burner control knob in for two seconds after the “snap”, this will allow gas to flow completely down the burner tube (E) and insure ignition.
• When the burner is alight, adjacent burners will cross light when their controls are turned to “HIGH”
• At “High” setting the burner flame should be approximately 12-20mm long with a minimum of orange flame. Turn the gas control fully anticlockwise for minimum setting.
• Should you have any difficulty lighting your gas grill following the above steps, contact your dealer for advice.
• If the automatic ignition can’t be used, please remove the cooking grill and heat diffuser(hotplate ), and turn the valve anticlockwise to 90°C to light with BBQ lighter in the distance of 5mm to the burner fire hole. Replace the cooking grill and heat diffuser (hotplate), please wear the fireproof and heat resisting gloves.
• Warning : If the burner still does not light ,turn the burner control knob to” OFF” and wait 5 minutes to let the gas clear before lighting again.
