4 RECURRENT CONCEPTS
This part includes definitions of some less familiar concepts.
These concepts are used in several topics of the manual.
4.1 QuickStart
The appliance is equipped with a QuickStart
This system allows you to light your appliance using nothing but
some old newspaper and a match. You do not have to add any
lighting fluids or firelighters. The system also works very quickly:
only 15 minutes after lighting the appliance, you can start grilling.
You find step-by-step descriptions of how to use the
2
QuickStart ® system further in this manual.
4.2 QuickStop
This information only applies to models Optima, Major and Arena.
Model Basic is not equipped with a QuickStop
The appliance is equipped with a QuickStop
system. This system allows you to extinguish and clean your
appliance in no time. After grilling, you just have to brush the
ashes into the water container at the bottom of the central pipe.
The water container of the QuickStop
safety of the appliance. It increases the stability and puts out
glowing charcoal in case the appliance would fall over.
You find step-by-step descriptions of how to use the
2
QuickStop ® system further in this manual.
4.3 Enamel
Some parts of the appliance are covered in a layer of melted
glass, called enamel. This enamel protects the underlying metal
from corrosion. Enamel is a high-quality material: it is resistant to
rust, does not fade under the influence of high temperatures and
is very easy to maintain.
Because the enamel is less flexible than the metal which
1
it covers, pieces of enamel can chip off when you handle
the appliance incorrectly. To avoid problems, be careful
when assembling enamelled parts and always maintain
the enamel as described further in this manual.
5 ASSEMBLING THE APPLIANCE

•
