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 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 the hood or lid.
Care and Maintenance
Flame Tamer
Remove any food residue from the flame tamer surface with a plastic or wooden scraper or brass wire brush.
Do not use a steel scraper or wire brush. Clean with hot soapy water and rinse well.
Drip Tray After every use, empty and clean the drip tray of any fat or food particles, using a plastic or wooden
scraper if necessary.
Failure to keep it clean, and excessive build up can result in a fat fire. This can be hazardous and severely
damage the barbecue. This is not a fault in the barbecue and is therefore not covered by the terms of the
warranty. If required, the tray can be washed in hot soapy water.
Barbecue Body
Regularly remove excess grease or fat from the barbecue body using a cloth wrung out in hot soapy water
and dry thoroughly. Excess fat and food debris can be removed from inside the body using a soft plastic or
wooden scraper. It is not necessary to remove all the grease from the body. If you need to clean fully, use hot
soapy water and a cloth, or nylon-bristled brush only. Do not use abrasives. Remove cooking surfaces and
burners before full cleaning. Do not immerse the gas controls or manifold in water. Check burner operation
after carefully refitting into body.
A stainless steel cleaner may be used on stainless steel parts if required.
Whenever a barbecue is being assembled for the first time or its burners are being cleaned, make sure each
gas valve tip goes into the burner venturi tube completely during the assemble or re-assemble process.
Regularly clean your barbecue between uses and especially after extended periods of storage. Ensure the
barbecue and its components are sufficiently cool before cleaning. Do not leave the barbecue exposed to
outside weather conditions or stored in damp, moist areas.
Never douse the barbecue with water when its surfaces are hot.
Never handle hot parts with unprotected hands.
In order to extend the life and maintain the condition of your barbecue, we strongly recommend that the unit
be covered when left outside for any length of time, especially during the winter months . 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. A chrome cleaner may be used on chrome parts if
