NEVER use an unregulated gas supply. The use of an inappropriate or defective regulator or gas hose is dangerous. Always check that you have the appropriate parts before using the barbecue. The gas hose used must comply with relevant standards and regulations of the country in which the appliance is used. The length of the gas hose must not exceed 1.5 meters. The gas hose must be replaced if damaged and when national conditions require it. Contact your dealer for replacement. The hose must not be twisted or kinked. Make sure that the gas hose is not obstructed, kinked, or in contact with any parts of the gas barbecue other than its connection. Appliance storage Storage of an appliance indoors is only allowed without the gas cylinder. When the barbecue is not to be used for an extended period of time, it should be stored with a protective cover in a dry and dust-free environment. Gas cylinder The appliance is supplied without a gas cylinder. The user should order a gas cylinder separately. The gas cylinder must not be dropped or handled roughly or improperly! The gas cylinder must be removed from the barbecue when it is not in use. Make sure to put the protective cap on the gas cylinder after it has been removed from the appliance. Gas cylinders must be stored separately from the appliance. Gas cylinders must not be stored in premises below ground level, in stairwells, passageways and carriageways of buildings, as well as in their immediate vicinity. The valves must be provided with protective caps and locking nuts. Gas cylinders (including empty ones) must be stored in an upright position. Gas cylinders must be stored outdoors in an upright position and out of the reach of children. Gas cylinders must never be stored at temperatures exceeding 50 °C. Gas cylinders must not be stored near open flames or other ignition sources. Smoking in the vicinity of gas cylinders is strictly prohibited! Connecting to the appliance Put the gas cylinder on the base plate. Warning! The gas cylinder must be put on the base plate. Do not keep another gas cylinder in the cabinet. Before you start using the gas barbecue, make sure the gas cylinder is in the gas cylinder holder on the base plate in the cabinet. Ensure that the heads of the gas cylinder, regulator or burner are free from dirt prior to connecting the gas cylinder to the appliance. There could be spiders and insects in there blocking the openings of the burner or venturi. A blocked burner can cause a fire underneath the barbecue.

Checking for gas leaks

• Extinguish any open flame or cigarettes in the area.

• Make sure the cylinder valve and the barbecue are “OFF.”

• Mix 1 part dishwashing detergent with 3 parts water. Leak test requires approx. 50 ml of soapy water.

• Ensure that all temperature controllers are set to (off).

• Attach the regulator to the gas cylinder and turn on the burner using the left temperature controller. Ensure that the connections are secure.

• Apply the soapy water on the hose and all connections. Bubbles indicate that there is a leak.

• If a leak is detected, close the gas cylinder valve, tighten the connection and retest.

• If the leak persists, contact your barbecue dealer for assistance. Do not attempt to operate the appliance if a leak is present.EN-16 Setting up the barbecue Warning! Risk of damage! During use, the screws can loosen slowly and impair the barbecue's stability. - Check the tightness of screws before each use. If necessary, retighten all screws to ensure the barbecue stands always stable.

• Before use, place the barbecue on a level, solid surface outdoors. Before grilling Wash off possible rough production residues using warm water; in doing so, avoid using cleaning agents or dishwashing detergents. Rub both grill grates with a soft cloth wetted with cooking or frying oil. Pre-firing the barbecue Before using the barbecue for the first time, heat it up for at least 10 to 20 minutes to burn away production residues. In the process, intense odor may develop, which is harmless and only lasts for a short time. Do not touch hot surfaces during preheating to avoid damaging them. Close the lids for a few minutes during pre-firing. Always set the gas barbecue to a small or medium flame when the lid is closed. Remove the lids for the rest of the pre-firing process. Operation Danger! Risk of explosion! Read through the following instructions for turning on/firing up the barbecue and all warnings and safety instructions before actually firing up the barbecue. - Check the barbecue for cracks, cuts or other damage before using it. - Stop using the barbecue if the gas hose is damaged or broken. - Open the barbecue lid before igniting the burner. An explosive flash may otherwise result, which can cause severe physical injuries and even death. Danger! Risk of burns! Do not touch the barbecue and food being grilled during use as they become extremely hot and can cause severe burns. - Before barbecuing for the first time, heat up the barbecue for at least 15 minutes with a lid closed and on a high flame without grillables. The heat cleans the internal parts and burns away the production residues of colored barbecue parts. In the process, odors and some smoke may develop. However, they are harmless and only last for a short time. Ensure sufficient ventilation. - Keep sufficient distance from hot parts since any contact can cause severe burns. - Always wear barbecue or oven gloves (e.g. Category II heat-resistant gloves rated according to DIN-EN 407) when grilling. - Use only long-handled barbecue utensils with heat- resistant grips. - Do not wear clothing with wide sleeves. - When using the barbecue, the floor and surrounding walls can be soiled, e.g. through fat splashes. Ensure that they are adequately protected against such soiling. Danger! Risk of burns and accidents! If the burner fails to ignite, turn the temperature controller clockwise to (off) and then turn the regulator on the gas cylinder clockwise to Off. Ignition system - ignition with piezo-igniter

1. Open the barbecue lid before turning on the burner.

2. Set all temperature controllers to (off).

3. Attach the regulator to the gas cylinder. Set the gas valve

on the regulator to On. Do not bend over the barbecue.

4. First push in the left knob and turn it to the left

Max (high flame), while simultaneously pressing the piezo-igniter to ignite the burner. Release the piezo-igniter when the burner is ignited.

5. If the burner fails to ignite within 5 seconds, turn the knob

to “OFF” and wait 5 minutes for the gas to escape and then repeat the whole procedure described above. If the burner still does not ignite, ignite it manually as described below in section Conventional ignition with matches of the user manual.

6. The flame temperature can be adjusted with the

temperature controller in the range between Max (high flame) and (low flame).EN-17

7. The side burner is turned on and operated in the same way

8. To switch off the barbecue, set the regulator on the gas

cylinder to Off. Then turn the temperature controller on the barbecue to (off). Conventional ignition with matches Danger! Risk of burns! When lighting the barbecue, always hold a match underneath the barbecue, not above it.

1. Open the barbecue lid before turning on the burner.

2. Set all temperature controllers to (off).

3. Attach the regulator to the gas cylinder. Set the gas valve

on the regulator to On. Do not bend over the barbecue. Use soapy water to check if leaks are present between the gas cylinder and the regulator.

4. Push in the left temperature controller and turn it counter-

clockwise to the Max position.

5. Bring a burning commercially available (extra-long)

fireplace match from underneath through the large hole in the base of the burner housing near the burner.

6. Repeat the same procedure for the second burner.

7. If the side burner does not catch fire, set the temperature

controller to (off). Push in the side burner temperature controller and turn it counter-clockwise to the Max position. Using a fireplace match, build up fire from underneath near the gap between the ignition head and the burner.

8. If you have any problems with lighting up your barbecue,

consult the dealer. Cooking with the lid closed Gas barbecues with lids allow gentle cooking of larger pieces of meat and whole poultry, similar to an oven. With the lid closed, only flame is required. Set the temperature to a low or medium flame and close the lid. AVOID EXCESSIVE HEATING OF THE BARBECUE. Opening the lid for no reason each time causes heat to escape and thus extends the cooking time. You should therefore avoid opening the lid unnecessarily. Finishing barbecuing As soon as the food has been cooked, the barbecue should be allowed to burn for 5 more minutes on a high flame. This enables to burn away residues on the burner and make cleaning easier. Make sure that the lid is removed during this process. Turning off the barbecue To switch off the barbecue, set the regulator on the gas cylinder to Off. Then turn the temperature controller on the barbecue to (off). Wait until the barbecue has cooled down sufficiently before closing the lid. Cooking tips

1. Brush the grill grates with cooking or vegetable oil prior to

using the appliance.

2. Use a brush with a long handle. Juices from the food drip

onto the heater during cooking and vaporize. The steam arising from this process contributes to the taste of the food.

3. Adjust the temperature controller between

Max (high flame) and (low flame) in order to achieve your desired cooking results.

4. Keep the lid closed at a low flame in order to achieve a

more consistent result and to cook larger pieces of meat or whole chickens.

5. Avoid opening the lid too often as accumulated heat

escapes each time, increasing the grilling duration as a result. Maintenance and cleaning Your barbecue is made of high-quality materials. Clean the barbecue after each use. To clean and maintain the surfaces, please observe the following instructions: Danger! Risk of burns! Allow the barbecue to cool down completely before cleaning. Danger! Health risk! Do not use paint solvents or thinners to remove stains. These substances are hazardous to health and must not come into contact with food. Warning! Risk of damage! Do not use any strong or abrasive solvents or scouring pads as these can damage the surfaces and leave scuff marks.

• After each use, allow the barbecue to burn for approx. 5 more minutes without any grillables. This minimizes the food residues.

• Set the regulator on the gas hose to Off before cleaning the barbecue.

• Remove the grill grate (B2) and clean it thoroughly with soapy water. Rinse it with clean water and then dry it off thoroughly.

• Use a wet sponge to remove loose residues from the barbecue.

• Any grease layer that may have built up on the internal surface of the lid can be cleaned off using a hot strong soapy solution. Then rinse with clean water and dry completely before using the barbecue again. Warning! Never use commercially available oven cleaners!

• Food residues on the barbecue base can be removed with a brush, spatula or cleaning sponge. Then wash again with soapy water. Rinse with clean water and dry.

• Clean the inner and outer surfaces with warm soapy water as a general practice.

• Clean wooden surfaces with a soft cloth and hot soapy water. Then rinse with clean water. Never clean wooden surfaces with barbecue cleaner concentrates.

• Use a soft, clean cloth for drying. Do not scratch the surfaces when wiping them dry.EN-18

• Tighten all screws before every use to ensure that the barbecue stands stable at all times.

• When the gas barbecue is not in use, it should be covered with a protective cover. Cleaning the burners

• Set the regulator on the gas cylinder to Off. Then set the temperature controller on the barbecue to (off) and disconnect the gas hose from the gas cylinder.

• Remove the grill grates.

• Clean the burners with a soft brush or with compressed air. Then wipe them dry with a cloth.

• Clean blocked openings with a sturdy pipe cleaner, a wire or with the opened end of a paper clip. Cleaning the ignition head

• Soiling of the ignition head tip may make it difficult to build up fire. In this case, it must be cleaned. The ignition head tip is located next to the burner opening.

• To ensure perfect functioning, food residues between the ignition head tip and the burner must be removed. Use fine sandpaper/emery paper to clean the ignition head tip and the burner edge.

• The ignition head tip should be approx. 4 - 6 mm away from the burner edge. This is the optimal distance for reliable ignition. Maintaining barbecue surfaces and lids IMPORTANT INFORMATION Maintaining and protecting stainless steel surfaces Your barbecue was manufactured with stainless steel components. All stainless steel parts require a certain protection and care effort in order to keep their original appearance. Contrary to general perception, stainless steel is not hundred percent resistant to flash rust and corrosion; therefore, it does require certain maintenance. Even the highest-quality stainless steel parts need to be cleaned on a regular basis with fresh water so that oxidation and corrosion are prevented. Modern aesthetics requires that your barbecue be equipped with stainless steel components and a brushed finish. This brushed finish is achieved by running stainless steel sheets through a process in which the mirror finish of the steel is removed and thus the sheets leave the processing plant in a brushed condition. Brushed stainless steel requires regular cleaning and maintenance in order to preserve its appearance. Without proper care, signs of rust or corrosion are sure to appear on the steel surface over time. Stainless steel does require maintenance. Cleanliness and stainless steel are closely interrelated. Once you have assembled the barbecue, it is recommended that you use a clean cloth to apply a thin film of olive oil on all accessible stainless steel surfaces. Then rub in the olive oil and subsequently wipe the surface with a clean cloth so that the finish is not oily. This way you will ensure that the material is protected from dirt and other aggressive harmful substances because the surface will be covered with a temporary food-safe protective layer. The olive oil film also makes subsequent polishing and removal of fingerprints and the like much easier. Repeat this procedure from time to time when you clean your barbecue. IMPORTANT INFORMATION You may have purchased a protective cover for your barbecue. To protect your investment, we recommend that you cover the barbecue with the protective cover whenever it is not in use.
