during cooking.
When flare-ups do occur, they can usually be
extinguished by applying baking soda or salt
directly onto the flame tamer. Always protect
your hands when handling anything near the
cooking surface of the barbecue and take care
to protect yourself from the flames.
If a fat fire occurs, please see the instructions
given below.
Fat Fires
Empty and clean the drip tray of food debris
after each cooking session. If the barbecue is to
be used for large gatherings, it will be
necessary to turn off and cool the barbecue
every two hours to remove food debris from the
drip tray and clean it out. The time between
cleaning may need to be reduced if very fatty
foods or cheap meat products are being
cooked. Failure to do this may result in a fat
fire, which may cause injury and could seriously
damage the barbecue.
In the event of a fat fire:
If safe to do so, turn all control knobs to the
‗off' position.
Turn off the gas supply at the gas bottle.
Keep everyone at a safe distance from the
barbecue and wait until the fire has burnt
out.
Do not close the hood or lid of the barbecue.
NEVER DOUSE A BARBECUE WITH
WATER. IF AN EXTINGUISHER IS USED,
IT SHOULD BE A POWDER TYPE.
DO NOT REMOVE THE DRIP TRAY
If the fire does not seem to be abating or
appears to be worsening, contact your local
Fire Brigade for assistance.
End of Cooking Session
After each cooking session, turn the barbecue
burners to the ―high‖ position and burn for 5
minutes. This procedure will burn off cooking
residue, thus making cleaning easier. Make
sure the hood or lid is open during this process.
Turning Off Your Barbecue
When you have finished using your barbecue,
turn all the control valves fully clockwise to the
―Off‖ position, then switch off the gas supply at
the bottle.
Wait until the barbecue is sufficiently cool
before closing its hood.
Care and Maintenance
Regularly clean your barbecue between uses
and especially after extended periods of
storage.
Ensure
components
are
cleaning. Do not leave the barbecue exposed to
outside weather conditions or stored in damp,
moist areas.
Never handle hot parts with unprotected
hands.
Never douse the barbecue with water when
its surfaces are hot.
In order to extend the life and maintain the
condition
of
your
recommend that the unit be covered when left
outside for any length of time, especially during
the winter months. Heavy-duty barbecue covers
and other accessories are available from your
local stockist.
Even when your barbecue is covered for its
protection, it must be inspected on a regular
basis as damp or condensation can form which
may result in damage to the barbecue. It may
be necessary to dry the barbecue and the
inside of the cover. It is possible for mould to
grow on any fat remaining on parts of the
barbecue. This should be cleaned off smooth
surfaces with hot soapy water.
Any rust that is found that does not come into
contact with the food should be treated with a
rust inhibitor and painted with barbecue paint or
a heat resistant paint.
Cooking Surfaces & Warming Rack
When the barbecue has cooled, clean with hot
soapy water. To remove any food residue, use
a mild cream cleaner on a non-abrasive pad.
Do not use scouring pads or powders as they
can permanently damage the finish. Rinse well
and dry thoroughly. Due to the weight of the
cooking surfaces, we do not recommend
cleaning in a dishwasher.
Should rust appear on the cooking surface in
contact with food, it must be changed.
Burner
Provided that they are operating correctly, in
normal usage, burning off the residue after
cooking will keep the burners clean.
The burners should be removed and cleaned
