OPERATION
Warning
• Before proceeding, make certain that you understand the IMPORTANT INFORMATION section of this manual.
• Your barbecue is not designed to be used with more than 50% of the cooking area as a solid plate — this includes
baking dishes. Full coverage will cause excessive build up of heat and damage the barbecue. This is not covered by
the warranty.
Preparation Before Cooking
To prevent food from sticking to the cooking surface, please use a long-handled brush to apply a light coat of cooking or
vegetable oil before each barbecuing session. (Note: When cooking for the first time, paint colours may change slightly as
a result. This is normal and should be expected.) The first time you use the barbecue, allow it to heat up for approximately
20 minutes before adding any food. It will allow the food-safe coating to harden (as
the protective coating may come off the cooking surface. This is normal and is not
foil. This will make cleanup easy.
Lighting the Main Burner
• Open the barbecue hood.
• Ensure all knobs are in the 'OFF' position. Open the gas control valve on the gas bottle or regulator.
• Push in and turn the burner control knob anti-clockwise until it reaches the 'MAX.' position.
• Press the electronic ignition button and hold for 5 seconds to light the burner.
• If the burner fails to ignite after the above procedure, turn all the knobs to 'OFF' position and close the gas
valve on the gas bottle. Wait 5 mintes and then repeat the above steps. If the barbecue still fails to light, please refer
to the manual ignition instruction in the section below.
• Repeat step 3 above to ignite all others burners.
• After ignition, the burner should be burned at the high position for 3-5 minutes in order to preheat the
barbecue. This process should be done before every cooking session. The hood should be open during
preheating.
• After completion of preheating, the burner should normally be turned down to a lower position for best cooking results.
