11.3 MAINTENANCE OF THE BARBECUE
Regular maintenance of your barbecue will ensure it functions correctly.
•
At least twice a year, check all parts that carry gas; also check them after extended periods of storage. Spiders and other insects can cause
blockages that must be cleared before use.
•
If the barbecue is regularly pushed across uneven ground, check from time to time whether all screws are still tight.
•
If you have not used the barbecue for a long period, you should carry out a LEAK TEST before using it again. If you have any doubts, please
contact your gas supplier or the retailer.
•
To prevent damage due to corrosion, oil all metal parts before long storage periods.
•
Following long storage periods, and at least once a year during the barbecue season, you should check the gas hose for cracks, kinks and
other damage. A damaged gas hose must be replaced immediately, as described in the SAFETY NOTES section.
•
Once your barbecue has cooled down completely, protect it from weather damage with a matching OUTDOORCHEF cover.
•
Always allow your barbecue to dry completely after cleaning or rain to prevent any condensation in the barbecue thermometer.
•
Remove the cover after any rain in order to prevent condensation build-up. Covers can be purchased from your barbecue retailer.
12. TROUBLESHOOTING
The burner does not ignite:
•
Check if the gas supply is open at the gas bottle.
•
Make sure there is enough gas in the bottle.
•
Check if sparks are passing between the electrode and the burner.
⚠ CAUTION:
This inspection may only be performed with the gas supply fully closed!
No spark:
•
Make sure that the battery has been inserted correctly (in barbecues with electric ignition).
•
The distance between the burner and electrode must only be 5–8 mm.
•
Check whether the cables of the electric ignition and the electrode are plugged in and firmly connected.
•
Insert 2 new batteries (type AAA, LR03, 1.5 V) in the electric ignition.
No power or reduced power:
•
Check whether the burners are blocked by insects or spiders/cobwebs.

The SAFETY LIGHT does not work:
•
Check if the gas supply is open at the gas regulating knobs (with the gas bottle valve closed).
•
Make sure the batteries for the Safety Light have been inserted correctly.
•
Insert new batteries.
The axle is jammed:
To prevent the axle from jamming, we recommend you remove any dust, dirt and pollen from behind the wheels at least once a year to ensure
they glide as smoothly as possible.
Please contact the retailer if you are still unable to operate the barbecue after carrying out the actions listed above.
