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 colour and there should be no traces of pink/red juice or meat colouring.

After cooking on your side burner always clean the cooking surfaces and utensils.

Keep outdoor cooking area with gas appliance clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors and liquids.
Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air.

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

.

See figures below showing correct burner installation with respect to the burner orifice.

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 aluminium 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.
