Assembly Instructions

Care and Maintenance
Regularly clean your barbecue between uses and
especially after extended periods of storage. Ensure
the barbecue and its components are sufficiently cool
before cleaning. Do not leave the barbecue exposed to
outside weather conditions or stored in damp, moist
areas.
• Never douse the barbecue with water when its
surfaces are hot.
• Never handle hot parts with unprotected hands.
In order to extend the life and maintain the condition of
your barbecue, we strongly recommend that the unit be
covered when left outside for any length of time,
especially during the winter months.
Even when your barbecue is covered for its protection,
it must be inspected on a regular basis as damp or
condensation can form which may result in damage to
the barbecue. It may be necessary to dry the barbecue
and the inside of the cover. It is possible for mould to
grow on any fat remaining on parts of the barbecue.
This should be cleaned off smooth surfaces with hot
soapy water.
Any rust that is found that does not come into contact
with the food should be treated with a rust inhibitor and
painted with barbecue paint or a heat resistant paint. A
chrome cleaner may be used on plated parts if required.
To prevent rusting, wipe plated parts with cooking oil
after rinsing and drying.
Cooking surfaces
When the barbecue has cooled, clean with hot soapy
water. To remove any food residue, use a mild cream
cleaner on a non-abrasive pad. Do not use scouring
pads or powders as they can permanently damage the
finish. Rinse well and dry thoroughly. Due to the weight
of the cooking surfaces, we do not recommend
cleaning in a dishwasher.
It is quite normal for surface rust to be present on the
cooking surface. If rust appears between uses or in
storage, clean with a soft brass wire brush, re-oil and
cure. Be careful not to damage the cooking surface.
Burner
Provided that they are operating correctly, in normal
usage, burning off the residue after cooking will keep
the burners clean.
The burners should be removed and cleaned annually,
or whenever heavy build-up is found, to ensure that
there are no signs of blockage (debris, insects) in either
the burner portholes or the primary air inlet of the
burners. Use a pipe cleaner to clear obstructions.
When refitting the burners, be careful to check that the
neck of the burner fits over the valve outlet. Refit the
circlips holding the burners.
It is quite normal for some surface rust to be present on
the burners. If rust appears between uses or in storage,
clean with a soft brass wire brush.
Burners do deteriorate with use - this is normal.
Periodic replacement may be needed.
Flame Tamer
Remove any food residue from the flame tamer surface
with a plastic or wooden scraper or brass wire brush.
Do not use a steel scraper or wire brush. Clean with hot
soapy water and rinse well.
Flame tamers will deteriorate with use - this is normal.
Periodic replacement may be needed.
Drip Tray
After every use, empty and clean the drip tray of any fat
or food particles, using a plastic or wooden scraper if
necessary.
Failure to keep it clean, or excessive grease build up in
use, can result in a fat fire. This can be hazardous and
severely damage the barbecue. This is not a fault in the
barbecue and is therefore not covered by the terms of
the warranty. If required, the tray can be washed in hot
soapy water, rinsed, dried and replaced in the
barbecue.
Barbecue Body
Regularly remove excess grease or fat from the
barbecue body using a cloth wrung out in hot soapy
water and dry thoroughly. Excess fat and food debris
can be removed from inside the body using a soft
plastic or wooden scraper. It is not necessary to
remove all the grease from the body. If you need to
clean fully, use hot soapy water and a cloth, or
nylon-bristled brush only. Do not use abrasives.
Remove cooking surfaces and burners before full
cleaning. Do not immerse the gas controls or manifold
in water. Check burner operation after carefully refitting
into body.
