OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
GAS TYPE AND CONSUMPTION
The barbecue is designed to operate on Universal LP Gas (Propane and/or Butane gas) or Natural Gas (via a
conversion kit). Gas consumption, Pressure and Injector Orifice size are shown on the Data Plate found on the
left-hand side of the barbecue.
GAS CONTROL KNOBS
The gas control knob locks in both the Off and High positions. By depressing the knob and turning anti-
clockwise, gas flow will gradually increase until the High position is reached. Continue turning in this direction
and gas flow will decrease until a simmer level is reached at Low. To turn gas flow off the gas control knob
must be turned clockwise from Low, depressed at High and turned until the Off position is reached.
VAPOURISER
Prior to using the barbecue, ensure the vapouriser is located in the correct position below the grill plate.
HOT PLATE, GRILL PLATE
Prior to using the barbecue, it’s advisable to cure the cooking surface. Wash the hot plate and grill plate, then
cover with olive or vegetable oil, light all burners and leave on until oil is absorbed, then wipe with a dry cloth.
DRIP TRAY
Prior to use check that the drip tray is clean and lined with aluminium foil.
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES MUST SAND, FAT ABSORBENTS
OR KITTY LITTER BE USED IN THE DRIP TRAY

LIGHTING THE BARBECUE
The 4 burner barbecue has a rotary ignition system built into the third gas control from the left (attached to the
third control knob from the left), which ignites the third burner from the left. The remaining burners are ignited
by a cross over channel. Pushing this control knob in, and rotating the control knob in an anti-clockwise
direction (starting at off), will cause a spark to ignite an extended pilot flame, which will in turn light the third
burner from the left. Once the knob is released, the pilot flame will extinguish. Visually check to see if the
burner has ignited. If the burner does not light, turn gas control off (turn the control knob clockwise) and allow
the unburned gas to dissipate before attempting ignition again. If ignition continues to fail refer, to the “Trouble
shooting” section. To achieve ignition on the remaining burners, turn an adjacent burner control knob to high
and the burner will ignite from the first burner.
MANUAL IGNITION
To help light the barbecue manually, a match holder and chain has been provided, and should be attached to
the right hand servery. The right hand burner can then be lit by lighting a match, fitting it into the holder and
pushing the match through to the right hand burner. After the initial burner is lit, the others can be ignited as
described above.
