• Lift the front edge of the hotplate and grills, rotate the
knob to the ‘RAPID PREHEAT’ and place a lighted
match near to the burner intended to be lit.
• Once alight, repeat for other burners. Lower the grills
and hotplate, taking extreme care with hot surfaces and
flames.
Preheating
• This barbecue is fitted with high power burners. In
most conditions it will only be necessary to preheat the
barbecue for 5 minutes before cooking can commence.
• As with most things, experience will familiarise you with
the effectiveness of and the time required to achieve the
desired preheating time to obtain the desired cooking
temperature.
• Testing has shown that the burners can be turned to
the low position for satisfactory cooking.
• If the unit does not operate correctly refer to the
troubleshooting section on page 15.
• If the burners are left to run too hot there will be
excessive smoking during the cooking process and
subsequent burning of the food being prepared. This
may also result in excessive flaring of the fat being
emitted from the food.
• Roasting with the hood closed only requires the 2
outermost burners to be on low setting for satisfactory
cooking. Refer to page 13 for further information on
roasting.
To turn the burner off
• When cooking is complete, rotate the knob fully
clockwise so the pointer on the knob is positioned at
the off position.
• Turn gas bottle isolation valve off after turning all knobs
to off position when appliance not in use.
