may come off the cooking surface. This is normal and is not harmful.
Line the drip tray with aluminium foil, then place a uniform layer of clean, dry sand 6-8mm deep into the tray.
This will absorb excess cooking fat, thus making cleanup easy.
Lighting the Barbecue
• Open the barbecue hood before lighting. Never light your barbecue with the hood closed.
• Ensure all knobs are in the off position. Open the gas control valve on the gas bottle or regulator.
• Push the control knob of the burner you wish to light and turn it anti-clockwise until you feel resistance to
the turning. Pause 4 seconds, then continue turning the control knob until a click is heard and the burner
is lit. Repeat previous step several times until the burner is lit.
• Ignite any of the remaining burners in any order, as needed. Confi rm each burner is alight before igniting
another burner.
• If burner fails to ignite after following above procedure, turn all the knobs to the off position. Close the gas
valve on the gas bottle. Wait 5 minutes. Reattempt all of the above steps. If the barbecue still fails to light,
please refer to the manual ignition instructions below.
• After ignition, turn the burners to the high position for 3-5 minutes in order to pre-heat the barbecue. This
should be done before each cooking session.
• After completion of preheating, turn all burners to the low position for best cooking results.
Manual Ignition Instructions
• Open the barbecue hood before lighting. Never light your barbecue with the hood closed.
• Ensure all knobs are in the off position. Open the gas control valve on the gas bottle or regulator.
• Insert lit match through the right match-lighting hole on the right side of the barbecue body and place near
rightmost burner porthole.
• Push and turn the rightmost control knob anti-clockwise to the high position, taking care to protect yourself
from the fl ames.
• When the right burner is lit, turn the remaining burners on from right to left.
• Confi rm that each burner is alight before turning on the next burner.
• If a burner fails to ignite, contact your local dealer for assistance.
• After ignition, turn the burners to the high position for 3-5 minutes in order to pre-heat the barbecue. This
should be done before each cooking session.
• After completion of preheating, turn all burners to the low position for best cooking results.
Grill Cooking
The burners heat up the fl ame tamer underneath the grill, which in turn heats the food on the grill. The natural
food juices produced during cooking fall onto the hot fl ame tamer below and vaporise. The subsequent rising
smoke bastes the food, as it travels upwards, imparting that unique barbecued fl avour.
Griddle Plate Cooking
The burners heat the griddle plate directly, which then cooks the food on contact. Griddle plates allow for the
cooking of smaller items, such as seafood, which could fall through the spaces of a grill. They are also suitable
for cooking items that require high-temperature/short-duration cooking, such as vegetables and smaller cuts
of fi sh. Similarly, it can be used in exactly the same way as a griddle in the kitchen, for searing steaks, cooking
eggs, etc. Alternatively, it can be used for heating pans or keeping food warm.
Roasting Hood Cooking
Barbecues equipped with a roasting hood give the option to form an ‘oven’ for roasting or baking food, such
as joints of meat or whole chickens, etc. More even cooking of food will actually be achieved by using the
barbecue with the hood down. However, this should only be done with the burners on low.
For best results, place the food you wish to bake or roast on a metal baking tray and set it on one side of the
cooking grill.
Turn the burner directly under the food to the OFF position and turn all other burners to a LOW to MEDIUM
