Before Grilling; Operation - tepro PETERSBURG User Manual

Before grilling

• Wash off possible rough production residues using warm
water; in doing so, avoid the use of cleaning agents or
dishwashing liquid.
• Rub the BBQ grate in with cooking oil using a soft cloth.
• Pre-firing
Before barbecuing for the first time, heat up the BBQ for a min.
15 minutes with a closed lid and high flame without food. The
heat cleans the internal parts and burns away the finishing
residues of coloured BBQ parts. In the process, odours and
some smoke may develop. However, this is harmless and only
lasts a short time. Ensure sufficient ventilation.
• Pre-heating
It is recommended to preheat the grill for about 10-15 minutes
before each use.

Operation

Danger Risk of burning!
The BBQ and the food become very hot during
operation, such that any contact with these can cause
very severe burns.
– Before grilling for the first time, heat the appliance for at least
15 minutes with the lid closed and over a high flame without
any food to be grilled. The internal parts are cleaned by the
heat and residues from the manufacture of coloured device
parts are burned. This can result in smells and slight smoke
development. However, this is harmless and only lasts for a
short time. Make sure there is adequate ventilation.
– Keep sufficient distance from the hot parts, since any contact
can lead to severe burns.
– Always wear oven or BBQ gloves when grilling. (Glove
Category II with regard to heat protection, e.g. DIN-EN 407)
– Use only long-handled utensils with heat-resistant grips.
– Do not wear any clothing with wide sleeves.
Danger Risk of explosion!
Read through the following instructions for turning on/
firing up the BBQ and all warning and safety
information first, before actually firing up the BBQ.
– Check the BBQ for cracks, cuts or other damage, before using it.
– Do not use the BBQ any more if the gas hose is damaged
or porous.
– Open the lid of the BBQ before firing up the burner. An
explosive flash may otherwise result, which can cause severe
physical injuries and even death.
Ignition system - ignition with a piezo igniter
1. Open the lid of the BBQ before turning on the burner.
2. Set all temperature regulators to OFF.
3. Connect the regulator to the gas bottle. Turn the gas supply
on the regulator to the On position. Do not lean over the grill
surface.
4. Press and hold a temperature control until the burner ignites.
5. After igniting, keep the temperature control pressed down
(approx. 10 seconds) until the burner stays lit.

6. If the burner does not ignite within 5 seconds, turn the
switch to the "OFF" position, wait 5 minutes for the gas to
evaporate and repeat the above process. If the burner still
does not ignite, ignite manually as described in the operating
instructions (see section Conventional ignition with a match).
7. As soon as the burner is working continuously, you can
regulate the temperature by turning the temperature control
to a position between LOW (LOW) and HIGH (HIGH).
8. Turn a second temperature control to the large flame position
(Max), if necessary. The burner ignites automatically.
9. To switch off the BBQ, turn the regulator on the gas bottle to
the "Off" position. Then turn the temperature regulators on
the BBQ to OFF.
Conventional Ignition with Match
Danger Risk of burning!
Never ignite the BBQ with a match from above,
always from below.
1. Set all temperature regulators to OFF.
2. Open the lid.
3. Open the gas bottle valve.
Do not lean over the grill surface.
4. Press and hold a temperature control on the grill while
turning it to the large flame (Max) position.
5. Stick a burning, commercially available chimney match
(extra-long) from below through the large hole in the base of
the fire bowl into the vicinity of the burner.
6. Repeat with the second burner.
7. Consult your distributor in order to remedy the ignition
problem on the BBQ.
Cooking with the lid Closed
Gas BBQs with lids enable gentle cooking of larger pieces of
meat and entire fowls, similar to an oven.
With a closed lid only a flame is necessary. Set the temperature
to a small or medium flame and close the lid. AVOID eXCeSSIVe
HeATInG OF THe BBQ. Unnecessary opening of the lid allows
heat to escape each time and thus lengthens the cooking time.
You should therefore avoid opening the lid unnecessarily.
Concluding barbecuing
As soon as the food has been prepared, the BBQ should be
allowed to burn for 5 minutes on a high flame. Residues on the
burner are thus burned away and cleaning is made easier. Make
sure that during this process the lid is opened.
Turning off the BBQ
To switch off the BBQ, turn the regulator on the gas bottle to the
"Off" position. Then turn the temperature regulator on the BBQ
to OFF. Wait until the BBQ has cooled down sufficiently before
closing the lid.
