Gas Requirements

Note: The appliance must be equipped with an EN 16129-approved gas regulator and EN 16436-1-approved gas hose with a minimum length of one metre. If not included in the delivery, they must be purchased additionally.

• For details on the more exact use of your gas bottles, contact your local gas bottle dealer.

• Never use a gas bottle with a damaged container, valve, base or ring.

• A deformed or rusty gas bottle can be dangerous and should be checked for functionality by your local gas bottle dealer before use.

• Never connect the device to an uncontrollable gas source. Turn off the gas when the device is not in use.

• The device may only be operated with propane gas or butane gas or a gas mixture of both types of gas. The maximum weight for the gas bottle used is 15 kg. The gas bottle must not fall down or be handled roughly. The connection to the gas bottle must be disconnected when the grill is not in use. After disconnecting, replace the cap on the gas bottle.

• Before connecting the gas bottle to the grill, make sure the gas tap is turned off, there are no open flames near the unit, and the gasket is in good condition. Then connect the pressure regulator to the gas bottle.

• The connection hose must be replaced every two years.

• Check the connection hose once a month and every time the gas bottle is changed. If the connection hose shows cracks or other signs of deterioration, it should be replaced with a new one.

• Be careful not to kink or twist the connection hose and ensure that it does not touch
  the hot surface of the equipment.

• Before replacing the gas bottle, make sure that the gas has been shut off and there are no open flames or other sources of heat near the unit. Make sure that the gas bottle is permanently in an upright position.

• Only use the connections and accessories of the device for their intended uses.

Storage of appliance

• Indoor storage of the grill is possible if the gas cylinder is separated from the grill. If the grill is not to be used for a longer period of time, it should be stored in its original packaging in a dust-free environment.

Gas cylinder

The gas cylinder should not be dropped or handled roughly! If the appliance is not in use, the cylinder must be disconnected. Replace the protective cap on the cylinder after disconnecting the cylinder from the appliance. The gas cylinder must be sited outside the body of the appliance.

Always connect or replace the cylinder in a well-ventilated area and away from any source of ignition, never in the presence of a flame, spark or heat source.

Cylinders must be stored outdoors in an upright position and out of the reach of children. The cylinder must never be stored where temperatures can reach over 50 °C. Do not store the cylinder near flames, pilot lights or other sources of ignition. DO NOT SMOKE.

This barbecue is designed for use outdoors, away from any flammable materials. It is important that there are no overhead obstructions and that there is a minimum distance of 1 m from the side or rear of the appliance. It is important that the ventilation openings of the appliance are not obstructed. The barbecue must be used on a level, stable surface. The appliance should be protected from direct draughts and shall be positioned or protected against direct penetration by any trickling water (e.g. rain).

Make sure that the gas cylinder compartment (if any) is not obstructed, keep it ventilated and clean.

CHECKING FOR LEAKS

• Make 2-3 fluid ounces of leak detecting solution by mixing one part washing up liquid with 3 parts water.
• Ensure the control valve is “OFF”.
• Connect the regulator to the cylinder and ON/OFF valve to the burner, ensure the connections are secure then turn ON the gas.
• Brush the soapy solution onto the hose and all joints. If bubbles appear you have a leak, which must be rectified before use.
• Retest after fixing the fault
• Turn OFF the gas at the cylinder after testing.
• If leakage is detected and cannot be rectified. Do not attempt to cure leakage but consult your gas dealer.

• Before cooking for the first time, operate the barbecue for about 15 minutes with the lid closed and the gas turned on LOW. This will “heat clean” the internal parts and dissipate outdour from the painted finish.
• Clean your barbecue after each USE. DO NOT use abrasive or flammable cleaners, as it will damage the parts of the product and may start a fire. Clean in warm soapy water.
• WARNING: Danger of burns.
• Accessible parts may be very hot. Keep young children away from the hot appliance at all times (even while cooling down!).
• It is recommended that protective gloves (eg oven gloves) be used when handling particularly hot components.

CLEANING AND CARE

WARNING: Danger of burns

All cleaning and maintenance should be carried out when the barbecue is cool and with the fuel supply turned OFF at the gas cylinder.

Your gas grill will look better and last longer if you keep it clean.

You should check the burner periodically for any sort of blockage. To do this, remove and inspect it. 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. Once this is done, lightly coat the burner with oil to help protect the burner.

Grease can build up on the frame itself. Most of it can be cleaned off with hot water. Use a non-caustic cleanser for more stubborn stains.

You should empty the fat tray frequently . Never touch the drip tray until the gas grill and fat have cooled down completely

Cooking grid

CAUTION: All cleaning and maintenance should be carried out when the barbecue is cool and with the fuel supply turned OFF at the gas cylinder.

To reduce chance of “FLASH-BACK” the procedure below should be followed at least once a month in late summer or early fall when spiders are most active or when your grill has not been used for a period of time.

1. Turn all burners’ valve to the full OFF position.
2. Turn the LPG cylinder valve(clockwise) to the full OFF position.
3. Detach the regulator assembly from the LPG cylinder by turning the quick Coupling Nut clockwise.
4. Remove the grid, cooking stone, grill rack from the appliance.
5.  Remove the burner from the bottom of the grill bowl by pulling the burner clip. Use
   • a screwdriver or needle nose pliers.
6. Carefully lift the burner up and away from the gas valve orifice.
7. Refer to figure below and perform one of these three cleaning methods. Bend a stiff wire, (a lightweight coat hanger works well) into a small hook as shown below. Run the hook through the burner tube and inside the burner several times to remove any debris.

Use a bottle brush with a flexible handle. Run the brush through the burner tube and inside the burner several times, removing any debris.

Use an air hose to force air through each burner tube. The forced air should pass debris or obstructions through the burner and out the ports.

Burner maintenance count

1. Regarding of which burner cleaning procedure you use, we recommend you also complete the following steps to help prolong burner lift.
2. Use a wire brush to clean the entire outer surface of each burner until free of food residue, and dirt.
3. Clean clogged ports with wire, such as open paper clip.
4. Inspect the burner after installation, check to ensure that the gas valve orifices are correctly placed inside the end of the burner tubes. Also check the position of your spark electrode.

Care and maintenance

Apart from cleaning , your gas grill is a fairly low maintenance item. A couple of things are worth looking at through. Remember to turn off and disconnect the gas before any maintenance is carried out.

1. If your gas grill uses a flexible hose to connect to the gas, check the rubber O-ring on the regulator end of the hose assembly at least once a year. If it appears worn or cracked, have it replaced.
2. If you use a portable LPG gas cylinder, you will need to have the cylinder serviced or replaced every ten years. The date of the last service should be stamped on the neck of the bottle.
3. A gas grill cover is also recommended to cover your gas grill and maintain and protect from all weather conditions.
