• Check for leaks by brushing a solution of 1/2 water and  1/2 soap over all the gas system joints, including ball valve connections, hose connections, and regulator connections.
• Ensure the soap solution has been applied to all connections – connect the regulator to the gas cylinder, open the gas control valve on the regulator allowing gas to flow.
• OBSERVE – if bubbles form over any part of the joints there is a leak.
• Turn off the gas and tighten all joints
• Repeat test. If bubbles form again, do not use the side burner. Please contact your local dealer for assistance.

FOOD SAFETY

Please read and follow this advice when cooking on your side burner:
• Always wash your hands before and after handling uncooked meat and before eating.
• Always keep raw meat away from cooked meat and other foods.
• Before cooking, ensure side burner surfaces and tools are clean and free of old food residue.
• Do not use the same utensils to handle cooked and uncooked foods.
• Ensure all meat is cooked thoroughly before eating.
CAUTION – eating raw or undercooked meat can cause food poisoning (e.g bacteria strains such as E.coli)
• To reduce the risk of undercooked meat, cut open to ensure it is cooked all the way through internally.
CAUTION – if meat has been cooked sufficiently the meat juices should be clear in color and there should be no traces of pink/red juice or meat coloring.
• After cooking on your side burner always clean the cooking surfaces and utensils.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

• Regularly clean your side burner between uses and especially after extended periods of storage.
• Ensure the side burner is sufficiently cool before cleaning.
• Do not leave the unit exposed to outside weather conditions or stored in damp, moist areas.
• Never douse the unit with water when its surfaces are hot.
• Never handle hot parts with unprotected hands.
• In order to extend the life and maintain the condition of your side burner, we strongly recommend that the unit be covered when left outside for any length of time, especially during the winter months.
• IMPORTANT – We recommend that servicing of this side burner should be performed either after every 100 hours of use or annually,  whichever is achieved soonest.
• Change the flexible tube when the national conditions require it.
• Do not modify the appliance.

Caution
If you smell gas – extinguish the burner. If the odor continues, immediately contact your gas supplier.
In the event of an uncontrollable fire, immediately disconnect the gas cylinder moving it away from the fire, and contact the fire services. DO  NOT PUT YOURSELF AT RISK!
Ensure aerosols are not used near this side burner when in use.
Ensure all packaging and plastic bags are disposed of safely.

Burner (2) Maintenance

• In normal usage, burning off the residue after cooking will keep the burners clean.
• The burners should be cleaned annually, or whenever heavy build-up is found, to ensure that there are no signs of blockage (debris,  insects) in either the burner portholes or the venturi tubes of the burners fitted over the valve outlets. A blocked burner can lead to a fire beneath the grill.
•  Visually inspect the operation of the burners. See figure below showing correct burning. There should be flame from all portholes.

STORAGE

Do not leave your side burner uncovered when not in use. Store your side burner in a cool dry place like a shed or garage when not in use to protect against the effects of extreme weather conditions, particularly if you live near coastal areas. Prolonged exposure to sunlight,  standing water, sea air/saltwater can all cause damage to your appliance. (A cover may not be sufficient to protect your appliance in some of these situations).

•  Cover the burners with aluminum foil in order to prevent insects or other debris from collecting in burner holes.
• If the side burner is to be stored indoors, the gas cylinder must be disconnected and left outside. The gas cylinder should always be stored outside, in a dry, well-ventilated area, away from any sources of heat or ignition. Do not let children tamper with the cylinder.
• Cylinders must be stored out of the reach of children and must not be stored in a building, garage, or any other enclosed area.
