Manual Lighting Instructions
• Remove the cooking grill and vapor bar from
barbecue.
• Place a lit match beside the burner (at the same
location as the sparker shield)
• Push and turn the right most control knob anti-
clockwise to the high position.
• After successful lighting, light each burner from
left to right as desired.

WARNING
• If you smell gas – turn off the grill,
extinguish all flames, open the grill hood. 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
fire and contact the fire services. DO NOT PUT
YOURSELF AT RISK!
• Ensure aerosols are not used near this unit when
in use.
• Ensure all packaging and plastic bags are
disposed of safely.
Grill Cooking
The Vapor bar evenly distributes the heat across the
cooking grill area. The natural food juices produced
during cooking fall onto the hot vapor bar below
and vaporise. Even cooking of food will be achieved
by using the grill with the hood down. This should
only be done with the burner on low.
Flare-Up Control
IMPORTANT – FLARE UPS CAN OCCUR FROM
RESIDUE FAT AND JUICES DRIPPING ONTO THE
BURNERS AND HOT VAPOR BAR. To reduce this,
regularly clean the burners and vapor bar. To control
flare-ups, it is advisable to trim away excess fat
from meat and poultry before grilling. The burners
should always be placed on the low setting during
cooking. Always protect your hands when handling
anything near the cooking surface of the grill.
End of Cooking Session
After each cooking session, turn the grill burners
to the high position and burn for 5 minutes. This
procedure will burn off cooking residue, thus making
cleaning easier.
Care and Maintenance
• Regularly clean your grill between uses and
especially after extended periods of storage.
• Ensure the grill and it's components are
sufficiently cool before cleaning.

weather conditions or stored in damp, moist
areas.
