Avoiding Flare-Ups; Maintaining The Appliance; Cleaning The Bowl; Cleaning The Grill - Barbecook LOEWY 40 Mode D'emploi

7.4 Avoiding flare-ups

Flare-ups are sudden flames that spark from the bowl when you
are grilling. They are usually caused by dripping fat or marinade.
During grilling, some flare-ups are normal. Too many flare-ups,
however, increase the temperature in the bowl and can ignite
accumulated fat. To avoid flare-ups:
• Make sure the bowl is clean before you start grilling. We
recommend cleaning the bowl after each use.
• Remove excess fat and marinade from the meat. You can
also use a grill pan for fatty and /or marinated meat.
7.5 Grilling under the Dome
This information only applies to the following models LOEWY 45
- LOEWY 50
To use your appliance to its full potential, you can equip it with
a Dome. The Dome is a half-open, shell-shaped lid that reflects
the heat of the charcoal back onto the food. As a result, your
food is heated from the bottom and from the top. This allows
you, amongst others, to evenly cook large pieces of meat, to
prepare beer canned chickens and even to grill pizzas.
Use Dome 223.0043.000 for model 45 and Dome
223.0050.000 for model 50. For more information on the
Dome, refer to www.barbecook.com

MAINTAINING THE APPLIANCE

8.1 Cleaning the bowl

This information only applies to the following models: LOEWY
45 - LOEWY 50 - LOEWY 55. Model LOEWY 40 is not equipped
with a QuickStop system. To clean the bowl of the LOEWY 40,
®
just brush the ashes in a bucket.
The main steps of this task are illustrated in Figure 5, on
page 105.
We recommend cleaning the bowl after each use. With the
QuickStop system, this is done in no time. Proceed as follows:
®
1. Let the appliance cool down completely and remove the
grill.
2. Close the air supply holes at the bottom of the central pipe
(Fig. 5a).
3. Remove the bottom grid from the bowl and brush the ashes
into the pipe (Fig. 5b).
4. Release the clips at the bottom of the central pipe (Fig. 5c).
5. Lift the upper section of the appliance from the water
container and put it aside (Fig. 5c).
6. Pour the water with the ashes into a bucket (Fig. 5d).
7. Put the upper section of the appliance back on the
container and close the clips.
8. Put the bottom grid back in the bowl.

8.2 Cleaning the grill

We recommend cleaning the grill after each use, with a
Barbecook cleaner.
You can also clean the grill with a soft detergent or with
sodium bicarbonate. Never use oven cleaners on the grill.

8.3 Storing the appliance

Store the appliance in a dry place (indoors, under a shelter...)
after each use. To extend the lifespan of your appliance, we
recommend covering it with a Barbecook cover.
Register your appliance at www.barbecook.com to find out
which cover you need.
Make sure the appliance is completely dry before you
store it. This prevents formation of rust.
