OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Control functions
Before lighting the barbecue:
• Check that all hoses and gas fittings are tight�
• Open the slimline lid or the roasting hood�
NOTE: The slimline lid is designed as a cover for weather
protection� The lid is not designed to be used as a cooking
hood�
• Check all control knobs are in the ‘OFF’ position�
• Ensure that the cooking surfaces are clean�
• Turn the gas isolation valve ‘ON’�
Lighting instructions
• Do not attempt to light burners with the cooking
surfaces covered�
• Read instructions before lighting�
• To light a burner, depress the knob and rotate
to ‘BOOST’�
• Hold for 3 seconds, release and check the flame�
• If burner did not light, turn knob to the ‘OFF’ position�
Allow gas to disperse, then repeat lighting procedure�
Manual lighting
• If, in the event of the automatic ignition system not
working, the barbecue can be lit manually�
• To light manually, fit a 40mm match to match holder
provided� Pass lit match through viewing holes below the
front of cooking plates down towards the burner, then
rotate the knob to ‘BOOST’ to ignite� If ignition fails turn
the control valve off and allow several minutes for the
gas to disperse before attempting to light again�
• Once alight, repeat for other burners as required�
Preheating
For best cooking results it is recommended to preheat the
barbecue prior to cooking�
• This barbecue is fitted with high power burners� In
most conditions it will only be necessary to preheat the
barbecue for 5 minutes before cooking can commence�
• As with most things, experience will familiarise you
with the time required to achieve the desired cooking
temperature�
• If the barbecue is fitted with slimline lid, it is advisable to
remove the slimline lid in windy conditions�
• If the unit does not operate correctly refer to
troubleshooting section on page 18�
Cooking methods:
Direct cooking / grilling
• For best cooking results testing has shown that once
preheated burners can be reduced to a Medium to Low
setting to maintain satisfactory cooking temperatures�
• If burners are left to run too hot there will be excessive
smoking during the cooking process and subsequent
burning of the food being prepared� This may also result
in excessive flaring of the fat being emitted from the
food�
Indirect cooking / roasting
• For barbecue models fitted with a roasting hood, it is
recommended that once preheated only use the two
outer burners on a low setting to maintain satisfactory
cooking temperatures�
• Using more than two burners is not recommended
as hood can overheat and may cause damage to the
appliance� The temperature gauge indicates the desired
range of roasting temperatures�
To turn the burners off
• When the cooking is complete, rotate the knob
fully clockwise so the pointer is positioned at the
off position�
