• The second part starts on page 295. It includes all kinds of illustrations (exploded views, assembly drawings...) of the appliances that are described in this manual. 3 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

3.1 Read and follow the instructions

Read the instructions before using the appliance. Always follow the instructions carefully. Assembling or using the appliance diffe ently can cause fi es and material damage. Damages caused by not following the instructions (improper assembly, misuse, inadequate maintenance...) are not covered by the warranty.

3.2 Be cautious with gas

Working with gas is perfectly safe, but requires some extra caution:

• Always store gas cylinders outdoors, in a well-ventilated area. Make sure they are not exposed to excessive heat or direct sunlight.

• Never store your gas cylinder or spare gas cylinder in the cabinet of your appliance.

• Never store your spare gas cylinder near a gas appliance in use.

• Tum off the gas supply at the gas cylinder af er use.

• Never smoke near a gas appliance in use of near a gas cylinder (full/empty). If you smell gas, immediately close the gas supply, extinguish all flames and open the lid of the appliance. If the smell lasts, call your gas supplier or the fi e department.

3.3 Select an appropriate location

Use the appliance outdoors only. Using it indoors, even in a garage or shed, can cause carbon monoxide poisoning. When selecting an outdoor location, always:

• Place the appliance at least three meters away from any building, in an open and well-ventilated area.

• Make sure there is a free air flow o the burners and the vent holes in the cabinet at all times.

• Make sure the appliance is not under an overhanging structure (a porch, a shelter ... ) or under foliage.

• Put the appliance on a firm and stable su face. Never put it on a moving vehicle (a boat, a trailer ... ).

• Read the instructions before using the appliance.

• Do not move the appliance during use.

• Do not leave the appliance unattended during use, especially in the presence of children and animals.

• WARNING: accessible parts may be very hot. Keep young children away.

• Use appropriate protection when handling hot parts (lid, grill ... ).

• This appliance must be kept away from flammable ma erials during use.

• Do not use wood, charcoal, lava rocks or ceramic briquettes on a gas appliance.

• Do not use the appliance when you have consumed alcohol or taken drugs.

• Tum off the gas supply at the gas cylinder af er use.

• Do not modify the appliance. 4 RECURRENT CONCEPTS This part includes definitions of some less familiar concepts. These concepts are used in several topics of the manual.

The venturis are the small tubes attached to the entrance of the burners. At the side of the venturis, there is a hole. This is visible on the main burners and on the side burner:7 When the gas is on its way to the burners, it passes through the venturis. Thanks to the holes at the sides, the gas is then mixed with air and - as a result - with oxygen. This is necessary for a good ignition in the burners: only the correct mixture of gas and oxygen will ignite properly and will result in nice flames.

The burner hoods are the hoods that you mount above the burners of your appliance. They protect the burners from dripping fat. The holes at the sides of the hoods also distribute the heat over the grill, so it is heated much taster and more evenly.

Some parts of the appliance are covered in a layer of melted glass, called enamel. This enamel protects the underlying metal from corrosion. Enamel is a high-quality material: it is resistant to rust, does not fade under the influence of high emperatures and is very easy to maintain. Because the enamel is less fl xible than the metal which the appliance incorrectly. To avoid problems, be careful when assembling enamelled parts and always maintain the enamel as described further in this manual.

Flare-ups are sudden flames that spark f om the bowl when you are grilling. They are usually caused by dripping fat or marinade.

5 ASSEMBLING THE APPLIANCE

5.1 Safety instructions

• Do not modify the appliance when assembling it. lt is very dangerous and not allowed to alter parts that are pre- assembled and/or sealed by the manufacturer.

• Always follow the assembly instructions carefully.

• The user is responsible for the correct assembly of the appliance. Damages caused by improper assembly are not covered by the warranty.

5.2 To assemble the appliance

You need a cross-slotted screwdriver, a flat-slot ed screwdriver and an AA battery (electrical igniter). There are no batteries supplied with the appliance.

1. Put the appliance on a flat and clean su face.

2. Assemble the appliance as shown on the assembly

drawings. You find them in the second pa t of this manual, after the exploded view of your appliance. Be careful when assembling enamelled parts. The tools and screws may damage the enamel. Use the provided fiber washers o protect the enamel around the screws. The blister packs can contain more screws than necessary. Screws can be left over after the assembly. The package includes an emergency kit with spare assembly parts (screws, beits, fiber washers ... ) ou can use them in case you lost or broke some parts.

6.1 Which cylinder, hose and regulator?

Before you can connect gas to the appliance, you have to buy a gas cylinder, hose and pressure regulator. The table below shows you which cylinder, hose and regulator you have to use. In Belgium (BE), for example, you have to use a propane cylinder with a hose and regulator for 37 mbar or a butane cylinder with a hose and regulator for 28-30 mbar. This barbecue has been adjusted to be operate with 4,5 to 15 kg butane/propane cylinders with an appropriate low pressure regulator. We recommend connecting the appliance to propane. Propane offers a high-quality combustion and is less sensitive to frost. The height H of the cylinder must be less than 70 cm, regardless of the cylinder’s width or diameter D. Buy your pressure regulator and gas cylinder together. Not all regulators fit all cylinders Use only a gas hose and regulator that is homologated for the country of use.

6.2 Safety instructions

• Never connect the cylinder directly to the appliance. Always mount a pressure regulator on the cylinder first

• Never modify pre-assembled or sealed parts of the cylinder, the hose or the pressure regulator.

• Keep the hose as short as possible (1,5 m maximum) to prevent it from dragging on the ground.

• Never distort or twist the hose. Do not pull or pierce the hose.Keep the hose away from any parts of the barbecue that get hot. Check that the fl xible hose stretches out normally, without twisting or pulling.

• It should be replaced if it is damaged or cracked, when required by national regulations or at the end of the part lifecycle (f.ex France)

• Never open the gas supply.

• Always keep the cylinder in an upright position.

• Check for leaks each time you make changes to the gas connection. See “7 Checking for gas leaks”.

6.3 Connecting the hose to the appliance

France: The equipment may be used with two types of fl xible hose:

• Flexible hose designed to be joined onto ringed tailpieces on both the barbecue and regulator sides, held fir with collars (in accordance with standard XP D 36-110). recommended length 1.25 m.

• Flexible hose (according to standard XP D 36-112) fit ed with a G 1/2 threaded nut for fixing o the barbecue and a M 20 x1.5 threaded nut for fixing o the regulator, recommended length 1.25 m.

6.5 Replacing the cylinder

1. Close the gas supply and set all control knobs to OFF.

2. Disconnect the empty cylinder and connect the full cylinder.

3. Check the cylinder, the hose and all gas connections for

leaks. See “7 Checking for gas leaks”. Attention, when changing the gas cylinder, this should always be carried out away from any source of ignition.

7 CHECKING FOR GAS LEAKS

7.1 Why check for gas leaks?

Propane and butane are heavier than air. As a result, they do not float away when leaking f om the appliance. Especially on windless days, a leak can cause the gas to collect in and around the appliance. That accumulated gas can then ignite and explode.

7.2 When check for gas leaks?

• Before the first use or befo e the first use af er a long period of non-use. Also check for gas leaks if your appliance was assembled by your dealer.

• Each time you replace a gas component.

• At least once a year, preferably at the beginning of the season.

7.3 Safety instructions

• Put the appliance outdoors, in a well-ventilated area. Make sure there are no flames or heat sou ces near the appliance.

• Never use a lighter or match to check for gas leaks.

• Do not smoke and do not light the burners when checking for gas leaks.

7.4 Which materials do I need?

To check for gas leaks, you need:

• A testing liquid. You can use a ready-made leak spray or a mixture of water (50%) and dish-washing soap (50%).

• The leak test tool that came with your appliance. You use it to suck up the testing liquid and apply it to the gas component or connection that you want to check.

7.5 To check for gas leaks

You check for gas leaks by applying a testing liquid to all gas components and connections. lf the bubbles on a particular component or connection grow, there is gas leak: To check for gas leaks, proceed as follows:

1. Put the appliance outside.

2. Get your leak test tool and testing liquid (leak spray or

water/soap mixture).

3. Open the lid and set all control knobs to OFF.

4. Open the gas supply slightly. Tum the valve of the gas

5. Suck up some testing liquid with the leak test tool and apply

it to the area that you want to check. You have to check:

• The welds of the gas cylinder (A)

• The connections between the cylinder and the pressure regulator and between the pressure regulator and the hose (C)

• The connection between the hose and the appliance (D) Your pressure regulator and coupling may be diffe ent from the ones in the illustrations.

6. Do one of the following:

• If you detect a leak, continue as described in “In case of a gas leak”.

• If there are no leaks, close the gas supply, rinse all components thoroughly with water and dry them well.

7.6 In case of a gas leak

1. Close the gas supply and do one of the following:

• If you detected a leak on one of the connections, tighten that connection.

• If you detected a leak on the cylinder or hose, replace the cylinder or hose.

2. Recheck the connection or component on which you

3. If the leak is not repaired, contact a Barbecook dealer. Do

not use the appliance until the leak is repaired. For a list of nearby Barbecook dealers, refer to www.barbecook.com.10

Each time you use the appliance, make sure that:

• The appliance is in an appropriate location. See “3.3 Select an appropriate location”.

• The gas hose does not drag on the ground and cannot come into contact with a hot surface or with dripping fat.

• The bowl is clean. We recommend cleaning the bowl after each use. See “11.2 Cleaning the bowl”.

• The burners and venturis are not blocked by insect nests or spider webs. See “11.3 Cleaning the burners and venturis”.

• The burners are assembled correctly. The venturis have to be placed over the openings of the gas valves. lf you want to be absolutely sure that your gas connection is okay, you can check your appliance on gas leaks before each use. See “7 Checking for gas leaks”.

8.2 Before first use (in a long time

lf you use the appliance for the first time or for the first tim after a long period of non-use, you have to execute some extra checks:

• Make sure that you have read, understood and checked all the instructions in this manual (only before first use)

• Check the appliance for gas leaks. See “7 Checking for gas leaks”. Also check for gas leaks if your appliance was assembled by your dealer.

• Clean the burners and venturis (only before first use in long time) . See “11.3 Cleaning the burners and venturis”.

• Burn in the appliance before you put any food on it (only before first use). See “8.3 Burning in the appliance .

8.3 Burning in the appliance

By burning in the appliance before the first use, you emove remaining manufacturing greases from the appliance. Proceed as follows:

1. Light the main burners and set their control knobs to HIGH.

See “9.2 Lighting the main burners”.

2. Close the lid and let the appliance burn for 15 minutes. Do

not put any food on the grill yet.

3. After 15 minutes, open the lid and let the appliance burn for

another 5 minutes (control knobs still set to HIGH).

4. After 5 minutes, the appliance is ready for use. You can now

put food on the grill.

9 LIGHTING THE BURNERS

To light the burners with the electrical igniter, you have to install an AA battery in the igniter. That battery is not supplied with the appliance. You find the bat ery case of the igniter on the control panel of your appliance.

9.1 Safety instructions

• Before you light the appliance, execute all checks listed in “8 Getting the appliance ready for use”.

• Make sure the lid is always open when you light a burner .

• Never bend directly over a burner when lighting it.

9.2 Lighting the main burners

seconds. This allows the gas to stabilize.

4. Light the match and hold it about 13 mm from the burner.11

5. Set the control knob of one burner to HIGH.

Always light one main burner to start with. Never light all main burners at the same time.

6. lf the burner does not light within 5 seconds, set its control

knob to OFF, close the gas supply and wait 5 minutes. This allows any accumulated gas to escape.

7. Retry lighting the burner. lf it still does not light, refer to “14

Troubleshooting” to determine the cause of the problem.

8. Once one burner is lit, light the other burners by setting their

control knobs to HIGH.

9.3 Switching the burners o

lf you no longer use the burners, you have to switch them off. Proceed as follows:

1. Close the gas supply.

2. Set the control knobs of the burners to OFF.

By closing the gas supply first, you ma e sure there is no gas left in the appliance.

9.4 Relighting the burners

lf a burner goes out while in use, proceed as follows:

1. Open the lid and close the gas supply.

2. Set all control knobs to OFF and wait 5 minutes. This allows

any accumulated gas to escape.

Each time you light a burner, you have to check its flames. A perfect flame is almost comple ely blue, with some yellow at the top. Sporadic yellow flames a e normal and not harmful. lf there is something wrong with the flames, do one of the following to solve the problem: LOW HIGH If the flames a e... Do the following... Low and entirely yellow Higher than the bowl

1. Immediately close the gas

supply and set all control knobs to OFF.

to determine the cause of the problem. Most likely, the venturis are blocked.

1. Immediately close the gas

supply and set all control knobs to OFF.

2. Wait 5 minutes to allow any

accumulated gas to escape.

3. Relight the burner(s).

4. If the problem persists, refer to

“Troubleshooting” to determine the cause of the problem.

10 USEFUL TIPS AND TRICKS

10.1 Preheating the appliance

By preheating your appliance, you make sure the grill is hot enough by the time you put food on it. Proceed as follows:

1. Light the burner(s) and set their control knob(s) to HIGH.

2. Close the lid and leave the appliance for ten minutes.

3. After ten minutes, open the lid and put your food on the grill.

4. lf you need less heat now, set the control knob(s) to a lower

10.2 Preventing food from sticking

To prevent your food from sticking to the grill:

• Oil the food lightly with a brush before you put it on the grill. You can also oil the grill itself.

• Preheat the appliance. The warmer the grill when you put food on it, the less the food will stick.

• Do not turn the food too quickly. Let it catch some heat first

10.3 Direct and indirect grilling

Depending on the type of food you are preparing and on how you want to prepare it, you can grill directly or indirectly: When grilling under a closed lid, always keep an eye on the lid thermometer to make sure the appliance does not get too hot. See “10.5 Watching the temperature”. Use Put your food next to a lit burner, set that burner to a medium/ low position and close the lid. Direct To sear meat and vegetables To further cook seared meat Indirect Description Put your food directly above a lit burner, set that burner to a high position and keep the lid open. Method12

10.4 Grilling with closed lid

Closing the lid while grilling has some important advantages:

• The temperature of the grill is higher and remains more constant.

• You reduce the cooking time of your food and keep your food more moist.

• You reduce fla e-ups and save gas. When grilling under a closed lid, always keep an eye on the lid thermometer to make sure the appliance does not get too hot. See “10.5 Watching the temperature”.

10.5 Watching the temperature

Your appliance is equipped with powerful burners, so it heats up rapidly and you can keep the temperature steady. When grilling under a closed lid, however, you have to make sure that the appliance does not get too hot. Keep an eye on the lid thermometer and take into account the following guidelines:

• A normal cooking temperature is about 210 °C. At higher temperatures, dripping and accumulated fat can ignite.

• The temperature should never be over 300 °C for more than five minu es. This can damage and deform the appliance. lf the appliance gets too hot, cool it down by opening the lid and setting the burners to a lower position.

10.6 Taking advantage of the heat zones

When all burners are lit, the burner hoods distribute the heat as evenly as possible over the grill. Despite this even heating, some zones are still hotter than others. You can take advantage of these heat zones to grill your food to perfection: You can also create heat zones by playing with the power of the burners. You can, for example, set a burner to a lower position and use the zone above that burner for delicate food or food that needs some time to cook.

10.7 Avoiding fla e-ups

During grilling, some fla e-ups are normal. Too many fla e-ups, however, increase the temperature in the appliance and can ignite accumulated fat. To avoid fla e-ups:

• Make sure the bowl is clean when you start grilling. We recommend cleaning the bowl after each use. See “11.2 Cleaning the bowl”.

• Regularly check if the fat drain hole is not blocked and if the fat drip tray or cup is not full yet.

• When grilling fatty meat, trim excess fat, close the lid and set the burners to a medium or low position.

11 MAINTAINING THE APPLIANCE

11.1 Cleaning the grill

We recommend cleaning the grill after each use, with a Barbecook cleaner. You can also clean the grill with a soft detergent or with sodium bicarbonate. Never use oven cleaners on the grill.

11.2 Cleaning the bowl

We recommend cleaning the bowl after each use, with a Barbecook cleaner. Use it the same way you do on the grill.

11.3 Cleaning the burners and venturis

Spiders and insects can make webs and nests in the burners and venturis. This may block the gas supply to the burners. As a result:

• You cannot light the burners. lf you manage to light them anyway, they will only produce smoky and yellow flames

• The gas can start burning outside the venturis, at the control knobs. These fi es are called flash-backs and can esult in serious injuries and material damage. Use to... Hotter Front Grill delicate food (prawns, fish... Prepare food that needs some time to cook (e.g. sausages, chicken ties ... ) Center Hot Hot Zone Hottest Back Sear meat and vegetables Damages caused by blocked burners and venturis are regarded as inadequate maintenance and are not covered by the warranty.

You have to clean the burners and venturis of your appliance:

• Before the first use af er a long period of non-use.

• At least twice a year, of which once at the beginning of the season.
