How to Lock And Unlock the Hood & Cooking Grill: The barbeque hood has a spring pin on each side that locks the hood and cooking grill in position. When both spring pins are pulled fully outwards from the barbeque, the pins can be rotated and rested back into the UNLOCKED position.
Gas Safety Checks Before assembling your barbeque, you should ensure your barbeque is suited to the type of gas that you are going to use. Universal LPG, Also Known As Propane: Barbeques suited to Universal LPG should have a red printed label saying “UNIVERSAL LPG”.

Checking the Flames The barbeque control knob has three basic positions: OFF, HIGH and LOW. You can achieve any flame height between LOW and HIGH by rotating the control knob between these positions. Controlling the Flames Look into the barbeque so that you can see the flames. They should be a soft blue colour with small yellow tips.
Page 14
Cooking Hints Controlling Flare Up Flare-ups are caused by juices and oils from the food igniting in sudden bursts of flame that come up over the grill. A little bit of flare up as well as the resulting smoke is a good thing.
Other Useful Tips You don’t need to be an expert to serve up a tasty, good looking meal. Try these ideas: Although cooking on the optional hotplate seems easier, cooking on the grill • gives you a more authentic barbeque flavour. Natural juices vapourise, with the vapours penetrating back into the food.

burner will usually only need to be on LOW and in some rare cases, OFF for short periods. Heat from the lit burner will circulate all through the hood cooking quite evenly. Quite close attention needs to be paid to the food, and the burners frequently reset to LOW or occaisionally OFF as required to prevent overheating.
Page 17
For smokey roasting, lower temperatures and longer cooking times will result in more intense smoke flavour and more tender meats. Aim for around 175ºC. A tray of water positioned on the grill will help keep the temperature stable and lower. Always use a probe thermometer to ensure that the meat has cooked all the way through to the right temperature.
