USAGE METHODS

1. Mounting steps
   Make sure your grill is assembled properly. Detailed assembly instructions are packed with each grill giving specific assembly procedures for each model. Follow these instructions carefully to ensure the correct and safe assembly of the grill.
   Caution: Although we make every effort to ensure that the assembly process is as easy as possible, it is inherent with fabricated steel parts that corners and edges can cause cuts if improperly handled during assembly procedures. Be careful while handling any parts during assembly. It is strongly recommended that you protect your hands with a pair of work gloves.

2. Preparation
   You will need an LPG gas bottle and proper regulators under the gas pressure to operate this gas grill. The regulators should comply with EN12864 with the current version and national regulation.
   See point Safety Instruction for further instructions.
   Energy-saving tips:
   a) Reduce the opening time of the lid.
   b) Turn the grill off as soon as cooking is completed.
   c) Preheat the gas grill for 10 to 15 minutes only. (Except for the first use)
   d) Do not preheat longer than recommended.
   e) Do not use a higher setting than required.
   f) Connect the hose and regulator to the gas container on the left side of the gas grill Keep in mind that the gas container must be kept away from heat and in a safe position. The hose dimension is 8-10mm in diameter. The length of the hose recommended shall not exceed 1.5m.

3. Installation
   After purchasing your gas cylinder you will then be ready to set it up with your gas grill.
   a) When changing the gas cylinder which shall be carried out away from any source of ignition. Position the gas cylinder on the left side of your gas grill, should not be placed inside the BBQ, keeping in mind that the bottle must be kept away from heat and in a safe position.
   b) When ready to use your gas grill insert the regulator into the gas bottle valve and tight ten firmly.

Warning: Before attempting to light your gas grill you must refer to your lighting instructions and warning/safety points.
Check the hose before each use, searching for cracking, cuts, or any abrasions. If the hose is found to be faulty in any way do not attempt to use your gas grill.
When changing your gas bottle ensure that there are no sources of ignition close by i.e. fires, cigarettes, naked flames, etc. Make sure that the appliance is switched off.
Ensure that the hose is not subjected to twisting which will affect the gas flow when installing your gas grill. Also, the hose must not have undue tension and must not touch any part of the gas grill which may be hot.
Please choose a flexible hose whose heatproof higher than 80°C
The flexible tubes should be changed every 2 years; It’s necessary to change the flexible tube when the national conditions require it.
How to change your cylinder

Lighting 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 the 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 cylinder valve to the on a position at the regulator. To create a spark you must press the control nob (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 an 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 ensure ignition.
When the burner is alight, adjacent burners will cross light when their controls are turned to “HIGH”
At the “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°, to light with a BBQ lighter at a distance of 5mm to the burner fire hole. Replace the cooking grill and heat diffuser (hot- plate), please wear 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.

STORAGE

Your gas bottle must be stored outdoors in a well-ventilated area and must be disconnected from your gas grill when not being used. Ensure that you are outdoors and away from any sources of ignition before attempting to disconnect your gas bottle from your gas grill.
When you are using your gas grill after a period of storage, please ensure to check for gas leaks and check for any obstructions in the burner, etc. before using. Also, follow the cleaning instructions to ensure the gas grill is safe.
If the gas grill is stored outdoors ensure to check that all areas under the front panel are free from any obstructions (insects etc.) This area must be kept free as this may affect the flow of combustion or ventilation air.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Maintenance is recommended every 90 days for your gas grill, but it is absolutely necessary to perform maintenance at least once a year. By doing so, you will extend the life of your gas grill.
