SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

  • Leak test all of the connections according to the instructions after each tank is refilled or the first use after a long period. Never use an LP gas tank with a damaged body, valve, collar, or footing.
  • Do not store an LP gas tank under the barbecue when using the appliance.
  • The use of alcohol or prescription/non-prescription drugs may impair the ability to properly assemble or safely operate the appliance.
  • Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable liquids or vapours within 25 feet (7.6 m) of this appliance.
  • Minimum clearance from the sides and back of the unit to com-bustible construction is 3 feet (1 m). Do not use the appliance under an overhead combustible surface.
  • Do not use the barbecue unless it is completely assembled and all of the parts are securely fastened and tightened.
  • The barbecue should be thoroughly cleaned and inspected on a regular basis. Clean and inspect the gas hose before each use of the appliance. If there is evidence of abrasion, wear, cuts, or leaks, the hose must be replaced prior to the appliance being operated.
  • Only use parts that are authorised by the manufacturer. The use of unauthorised parts is dangerous. This may also void your warranty.
  • When cooking, fire extinguishing materials should be located nearby. In the event of an oil/grease fire, do not attempt to extinguish it with water. Use a chemical fire extinguisher or smother it with dirt/sand or fire blanket.
  • Operate the appliance on solid ground only, do not install or use it in/on boats or recreational vehicles.
  • Do not leave a lit barbecue unattended. Keep children and animals away from the barbecue at all times.
  • Do not move the appliance during use.
  • Always open the barbecue lid carefully and slowly as the heat and steam trapped within the barbecue can severely burn you. Move gas hoses as far away as possible from hot surfaces and dripping hot grease.
  • Keep all electrical cords away from a hot barbecue.
  • Turn off the gas supply at the gas cylinder after use.
  • Never cover the entire cooking area.
  • Never obstruct the ventilation openings of the container com-partment.
  • Wear protective gloves when handling the hot components.

HOSE AND REGULATOR
These items are not included with the barbecue. Only use hose and regulators approved for LP gas at the above pressures. The estimated life expectancy of the regulator is 10 years. Change the regulator within 10 years of the date of manufacture.

The use of the wrong hose or regulator is unsafe; always check that you have the correct items before operating the barbecue. The hose used must conform to the relevant standard for the country of use. The length of the hose must be 1.2 metres (maximum) and the inner diameter 10 mm. A worn or dam-aged hose must be replaced. Ensure that the hose is not bent, clogged, or in contact with any part of the barbecue other than at its connection.

Storage of the Barbecue
Storing the appliance indoors is only permissible if the LP gas cylinder is disconnected and removed from the appliance. When the appliance is not to be used for a long period of time, it should be placed in its original packaging and stored in a dry, dust free environment.

LP GAS CYLINDER
The LP gas cylinder should not be dropped or handled roughly! If the barbecue is not in use, the cylinder must be disconnected from the appliance. Place the protective cap on the cylinder after disconnecting the cylinder from the appliance.

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

DO NOT SMOKE NEAR THE LP GAS CYLINDER.
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 barbecue are not obstructed. The barbecue must be used on a level, stable surface. The appliance should be protected from direct airflow and shall be positioned or protected against direct penetration by any trickling water (e.g. rain).
No modifications should be made to any part of this barbecue and repairs and maintenance should only be carried out by a registered gas service company.

Connecting the LP gas cylinder to the barbecue
Before connection, ensure that there is no debris or dirt caught in the head of the LP gas cylinder, regulator, burner, and burner ports. Spiders and insects can nest within and clog the burner and its inlet. A clogged burner can lead to a fire beneath the barbecue.

Clean burner holes with a heavy-duty pipe cleaner.
Fit the hose to the appliance using a spanner to tighten it onto the connection thread. If the hose is replaced, it must be secured to the barbecue and regulator connections with hose clips. Disconnect the regulator from the cylinder according to the directions when the barbecue is not in use.
The Barbecue must be operated in a well-ventilated area. Do not obstruct the flow of combustion air to the burner when the barbecue is in use. ONLY USE THIS BARBECUE OUTDOORS.

BEFORE USE, CHECK FOR LEAKS IN THE HOSE AND/OR CONNECTION THREADS.
Never check for leaks with a naked flame, always use a soapy water solution.

CHECKING FOR LEAKS
Make 2-3 fluid ounces (6-9 dl) of leak detecting solution by mixing one part dishwashing liquid with 3 parts water.
Ensure that the control valve is “OFF”.
Connect the regulator to the LP gas cylinder and ON/OFF valve to the burner. Ensure that the connections are secure and then turn the gas ON.
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 the gas OFF at the LP gas cylinder after testing.
If leakage is detected and cannot be rectified, consult your gas dealer in order to fix the leak.

LIGHTING YOUR SMOKER

Lighting Instructions

  1. Turn the control knob clockwise to the “ ” position.
  2. Open the hood before use.
  3. Connect the pressure regulator to the gas tank. Turn the gas supply to “ON” at the regulator switch. Using soapy water, check for any gas leak between the tank and the regulator.
  4. Push down the control knob and turn it anticlockwise to the full-rate position  whilst pressing the ignition button until the burner has lit. If the burner does not light, repeat this process three or four times.
  5. If the burner has still not lit, wait five minutes and repeat step 4.
  6. Adjust the burner to the desired operating temperature
  7. To turn the smoker off: turn the cylinder valve or regulator switch to the “OFF” position. Then turn all control knobs on the appliance clockwise to the “ ” position.

Warning: If the burner fails to ignite, turn control knob off (clockwise) and turn the cylinder valve off. Wait five minutes before attempting to relight the burners.

Before cooking for the first time, operate the smoker for about fifteen minutes with the lid closed and the gas turned on HIGH. This will “heat clean” the internal parts and dissipate any odour from the painted finish.

Clean your smoker after each use. DO NOT use abrasive or flammable cleaners, as these will damage the product and may cause fire. Clean with warm soapy water.

WARNING : Accessible parts and surfaces may be very hot. Keep young children away from the hot appliance at all times (even while it is cooling down!). We recommend wearing protective gloves (e.g. oven gloves) when handling, particularly the hot components.

CLEANING AND CARE

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

A. CLEANING
To keep the smoker in good condition and ensure optimal performance, cleaning and maintenance are required. Do at least the following after each use, as soon as the smoker has cooled.

SURFACES
Use a mild detergent or a solution of baking soda and hot water. Non-abrasive scouring powder can be used on stubborn stains. Then rinse with water. If the inside surface of the smoker lid has the appearance of peeling paint, baked-on grease build up has turned to carbon and is flaking off. Clean thoroughly with a strong solution of hot soapy water. Rinse with water and allow to dry completely. NEVER USE OVEN CLEANER.

INTERIOR OF SMOKER BOTTOM
Remove residue using a brush, scraper and/or cleaning pad. Then wash with soapy water. Rinse with water and allow to dry.

PLASTIC SURFACES
Wash with a soft cloth and hot soapy water. Rinse with water. Do not use abrasive cleaners, degreasers or a concentrated barbecue cleaner on plastic parts.

WOODEN SURFACES
Wooden surfaces should be wiped with a damp cloth. For stub-born marks, wipe with a detergent solution.

COOKING GRID
Use a mild solution of soapy water. Non-abrasive scouring pow-der can be used on stubborn stains. Then rinse with water.

BURNER ASSEMBLY

Turn the gas OFF at the control knob and disconnect the cylin-der. Remove the cooling grate.
Clean the burner with a soft brush or blow it clean with com-pressed air and wipe with a cloth.
Clean any clogged ports with a pipe cleaner or stiff wire (such as an opened paper clip).
Inspect the burner for any damage (cracks or holes). If damage is found, replace with a new burner.
Reinstall the burner. Check to ensure that the gas valve open-ings are correctly aligned with the inlet (venture tube) of the burner.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

  1. Grid and plate
    If the cooking surfaces are:

    • finished in chrome: wash with water and soap or with a non-abrasive detergent. Carefully dry before storage.
    • finished in porcelain enamel: wash with water and soap or with a non-abrasive detergent. Carefully dry before storage.
    • cast iron: wash with water and soap or with a non-abrasive detergent. Carefully dry before storage and lubricate with vegetable oil. We recommend doing this after each use.
  2. Before first use
    Before you use your appliance for the first time, preheat for fifteen minutes on full power. There may be a smell.

  3. Cooking
    To avoid excess smoke, remove fatty parts from the food before cooking.
    Make sure that grease does not build up on the appliance. In the event of the grease catching fire, do not use water to extinguish it, as this may damage the burners; turn off the gas valve immediately.
    To prevent food from sticking, lubricate the cooking surface with vegetable oil.
    Turn off the controls and gas valve after use. Make sure the appliance has completely cooled before cleaning, moving or covering it or putting it away.

  4. Lighting
    Please refer to the ignition instructions printed on the control panel of the appliance. Read those instructions carefully.
