3. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Read the instructions before using the device. Always follow the instructions carefully. If the device is mounted or used in any other way, this may result in re and damage to proper- ty. Damage due to failure to follow the instructions (incorrect assembly, misuse, improper maintenance, etc.) is not covered under the warranty. - WARNING! Keep children and pets away from the barbe- cue. - WARNING! This barbecue gets very hot, do not attempt to move it when it is in use. - Use appropriate protection when you need to touch hot parts. - Keep ammable materials, ammable liquids and disso- luble objects at a safe distance from the appliance when it is in use. - WARNING! Do not use spirits, gasoline or other amma- ble liquids to light or relight the appliance! You must only use relighters that comply with EN 1860-3! - WARNING! Do not start barbecuing until the charcoal has developed a layer of ash. This usually takes around 15 minutes (Fig. 3c) - Do not leave the barbecue unattended when in use. - Keep a bucket of water or sand nearby when you use the appliance, especially on very hot days and in dry environ- ments. - Do not use indoors! Only use the appliance outdoors. If you use the appliance indoors, even in a garage, enclosed space or shed, you risk carbon monoxide poisoning. - Take into account the following when choosing a location: - Place the appliance at least three meters from a building in a open, well-ventilated location. - Do not place the barbecue below an overhanging structu- re (veranda, shelter etc. ) or under foliage. - Place the appliance on a at and stable surface. - Do not place the appliance on a moving vehicle (boat, trailer etc. ).

4. RECURRENT CONCEPTS

This section lists the denitions of some less familiar concepts. These concepts are used when discussing various topics throughout the manual. 4.1. Enamel Some parts of the appliance are covered in a layer of melted glass, also known as enamel. This enamel protects the under- lying metal from corrosion. Enamel is a high-quality material: it is corrosion-resistant, it does not degrade under the inuence of high temperatures, and it is very easy to maintain. Since the enamel is less exible than the metal to which it is applied, pieces of enamel may break off when the appliance is used incorrectly. To avoid this problem, you must be careful when assembling enameled parts and you must always maintain the enamel according to the instructions in this manual.

5. ASSEMBLING THE APPLIANCE

5.1. Safety instructions - Remove all of the packaging. - Do not make modications to the appliance when assem- bling. You must not make changes to any of the parts of the appliance; this is very dangerous. - Always carefully follow the assembly instructions. - The user is responsible for the correct assembly of the appliance. Damage caused by incorrect assembly is not covered by the warranty. 5.2. To assemble the appliance

1. Place the appliance on a at and stable surface before use.

2. Assemble the appliance as shown on the assembly dra-

wings. You will nd the assembly drawings in the second part of this manual, after the exploded view of your applian- ce.www.barbecook.com

3. For each model you can decide whether to mount your

wheels and/or side table on the left or right. In this way, the Magnus adapts exibly to your preferences. Be careful when assembling enameled parts. Use the ber washers supplied to protect the enamel around the screws. You only need a cross head screwdriver and a spanner to ad- just the tension on the clips at the bottom of the device.

For units equipped with one or more side tables: never lean on them. Max. weight that these tables can carry is 7.5 kg.

6. PREPARING THE APPLIANCE FOR USE

6.1. First time use It is recommended that the grill be heated up and the fuel kept red hot, with the lid on, for at least 30 minutes before cooking for the rst time. 6.2. Which type of charcoal should I use and how much? Always light your appliance with traditional charcoal, never with briquettes. When your appliance is lit, you can add briquettes. Use good quality charcoal to light the appliance, preferably charcoal that complies with EN 1860-2. Good- quality charcoal consists of large, shiny pieces and does not give off much dust. Preferably use Barbecook Premium charcoal (BC-ACC-7421) Close the bag of charcoal properly before storing it. Always store charcoal in a dry location, do not store charcoal in a ba- sement. Make sure not to overll your appliance. Overloading the bowl with charcoal/briquettes can seriously damage your barbecue due to the extreme heat. Use the maximum following maximum amounts of fuel: - Charcoal: 1,2 kg - Briquettes: 1,2 kg 6.3. Preparing the appliance for use

2. Remove the cooking top grate from your grill. Start with the

middle grate (use the supplied grill lifters).

3. Remove the charcoal (bottom) grate and clear ashes or

chunks of old charcoal from the bottom of the bowl. Char- coal requires oxygen to burn, so be sure that nothing clogs the vents. (use the ventilation control at the front of the unit for this. The ashes then fall neatly into the ash catcher at the bottom of the bowl).

ATTENTION! Never place charcoal directly into the bowl.

5. Make sure the air supply is fully open (position 5)

6.4. Lighting charcoal Lighting charcoal with a chimney starter The easiest way to light any kind of charcoal is to use a chim- ney starter; (included with certain models, but also sold separa- tely). Always leave the lid open when using a chimney starter.

1. Put a few sheets of wadded up newspaper in the bottom

of the chimney starter and set the chimney starter on the charcoal grate; or put a few lighter cubes in the centre of the charcoal grate and place the chimney starter over them.

2. Fill the chimney starter with charcoal (max. up to the rim on

top, certainly not more).

3. Leave the chimney starter in place until the charcoal is com-

pletely covered with a white layer of ash. This takes about 15 to 20 minutes.

4. Next, pour the glowing coals into the desired place on the

coal grid. Always wear heat-resistant gloves when doing so.

5. Add a few more fresh coals on top of the already hot coals.

Wait again until these are covered with a white layer of ash.

6. You are ready for the next steps

Lighting Charcoal Using lighter cubes or wood wool

1. Place a heap of charcoal in the middle of the charcoal grate

and insert a number of relighters or wood wool.

2. Use long matches or a lighter to light cubes or wood wool.

These will in turn ignite the charcoal.

3. Light the relighters or wood wool through the openings at

the bottom of the charcoal starter.

4. Wait until the charcoal is completely covered with a white

5. Add a few more fresh coals on top of the already hot coals.

Wait again until these are covered with a white layer of ash. This takes about 15 to 20 minutes.

6. You are now ready for the next steps

6.5. Grilling with direct heat With direct heat, the re is right below the food (A). It sears or browns the surfaces of the food, while it also cooks the food all the way to the centre. This method is ideal for small, tender pieces of food that take less than 20 minutes to cook.www.barbecook.com

1. Always wear barbecue mitts or gloves conforming to EN

407, Contact Heat rating level 2 or greater, when using your charcoal barbecue. Note: The grill, including the handle and damper/vent handles, will become hot.

2. Spread the charcoal evenly across the charcoal grate with

6. Preheat the grate for approximately 10 to 15 minutes.

7. Open the lid and place your food on the grate.

8. Close the lid. Note: When opening the lid during your grilling

sessions, do this in 2 steps in order to avoid ashes drawing up onto your food. You can nd inspiring recipes on www. barbecook.com 6.6. Grilling with indirect heat With indirect heat, the re is on both sides of the grill, or on one side of the grill. Place the food on the unlit part of the grill grate. This method is ideal for larger cuts of meat that require 20 mi- nutes of grilling time or more, or for foods that would dry out or scorch if exposed directly to the heat. This method is also used for thicker foods or pieces of meat with bones that have been seared or browned rst over direct heat. Keep the lid closed as much as possible.

1. Always wear barbecue mitts or gloves conforming to EN

407, Contact Heat rating level 2 or greater, when using your charcoal barbecue. Note: The grill, including the handle and damper/vent handles, will become hot.

2. Arrange the charcoal so that they will be set on either side

of the food (either directly onto the charcoal grate or in the charcoal baskets (model depending).

6. Preheat the grate for approximately 10 to 15 minutes.

7. Open the lid and place your food on the grate.

8. Close the lid. Note: When opening the lid during your grilling

sessions, do this in 2 steps in order to avoid ashes drawing up onto your food. You can nd inspiring recipes on www. barbecook.com. 6.7. Extinguish the appliance When nished, close the vents at the top and bottom of the unit to extinguish the re.

7.1. Adjusting the re intensity Charcoal re needs air. The lid should be closed as much as possible, but keep the lid damper and bowl vent open. Remove the ashes on the bottom of the grill regularly to prevent them from blocking the vents. You can adjust the intensity of the re by opening and closing the air supply holes at the bottom and in the lid. The more you open the vents, the more air is sucked into the pipe and the more intense the re will be.The more you close the holes, the less air is sucked into the pipe and the less intense the re will be. supply with various positions: Position 0-2 = Less oxygen = Temperature will drop Position 3-5 = Extra oxygen = Temperature will rise 7.2. Preventing food from burning To prevent your food from burning: Never start grilling when there still are ames in the bowl. Wait until the charcoal is covered with a thin layer of white ash. Avoid exposing your food to excessive heat. You can: - Protect the food by moving the grill to a higher position. - Reduce the heat by (partially) closing the vents at the bottom of the pipe. Always provide a direct (searing) and indirect (cooking) grill zone on your appliance. This will allow you to move the food to a zone with a more modest temperature.www.barbecook.com

7.3. Preventing food from sticking to the grill To prevent your food from sticking to the grill: Oil the food lightly with a brush before placing it on the grill. You can also oil the grill. Do not turn the food too quickly. First allow it to heat up thoroughly. 7.4. Preventing are-ups Flare-ups are sudden ames that spark from the bowl when you are grilling. They are usually caused by dripping fat or marinade. Flare-ups may occur when grilling. However, an excess of are-ups increases the temperature of the bowl and can ignite accumulated fat.nTo prevent are-ups: - Make sure that the bowl is clean before you start grilling. We recommend cleaning the bowl after every use. - Remove excess fat and marinade from the meat. You could also use the Barbecook grill mat or Barbecook grill pan for marinated meat. - Keep the lid closed as much as possible. 7.5. Using the coal trays - The simplest way to grill indirectly is by using the Barbe- cook charcoal trays (included with certain models, but also sold separately). - These trays make sure that the charcoal or briquettes are kept nicely on top of each other for optimal combustion. In addition, you can use the trays to easily exible heat zones in your appliance. - After use, the remaining coals are still collected in the coal trays. The superuous ashes will fall down through the openings of the trays. You can reuse the cooled coal later.

8. MAINTAINING THE APPLIANCE

8.1. Cleaning the bowl We recommend cleaning the bowl after every use. Proceed as follows:

1. Allow the appliance to cool down fully and remove the grills

(food and charcoal grills)

2. Close the air supply holes at the bottom of the appliance.

3. Sweep the remaining ashes into the ash collector.

4. Empty and replace the ash collector.

8.2. Cleaning the grill We recommend cleaning the grill with a Barbecook-cleaner after every use. You can also clean the grill with a mild deter- gent or with sodium bicarbonate. Never use oven cleaners to clean the grill. 8.3. Storing the appliance Store the appliance in a dry location (indoors, under a shelter etc.) after each use. To extend the lifespan of your appliance, we strongly advise you to cover your barbecue with a Barbe- cook cover. Register your appliance at www.barbecook.com to nd out which cover you need. To prevent rust, make sure that the appliance is completely dry before you store it away. 8.4. Maintaining enamel, stainless steel, cast iron and powder coated parts. The appliance is made of various materials. Each material must be maintained differently: Material Maintenance instructions Enamel • Do not use any sharp objects and do not knock the appliance against hard surfaces.

• Avoid contact with cold liquids while the appliance is still hot.

• You can use metal sponges and abrasive cleaning products. Stainless steel

• Do not use aggressive, abrasive or metal cleaning products.

• Use mild cleaning products and leave to sit on the steel.

• Use a soft sponge or cloth.

• After cleaning, rinse the appliance thoroughly and allow the appliance to dry completely before storing. Powder coating

• Do not use any sharp objects. Use non-aggressive cleaning agents and a soft sponge or cloth.

• After cleaning, rinse the device thoroug- hly and allow the device to dry thoroughly before putting it away. Cast iron • Use a steel brush or steel wool to clean the surface.

• After each use, rub the inside and outside with an oil suitable for food. This will prevent the grids from rusting. After a while, rusting will be a natural phenomenon. To prevent rusting on stainless steel parts, it is best to avoid any contact with chlorine, salt or iron. We recommend that you do not use the device in coastal areas, near railways or near a swimming pool. Damage due to failure to follow these instructi- ons is considered faulty maintenance and is not covered by the warranty. You will nd an overview of all parts that make up the device after the device’s exploded views (second part of the manual). This list includes a symbol indicating the material of each part so that you can determine how to maintain each part.
