Setting up the barbecue

Warning! Risk of damage!
During use, the screws can loosen slowly and
impair the barbecue's stability.
- Check the tightness of screws before each use. If
necessary, retighten all screws to ensure the barbecue
stands always stable.
• Before use, place the barbecue on a level, solid surface
outdoors.

Before grilling

Wash off possible rough production residues using warm
water; in doing so, avoid using cleaning agents or dishwashing
detergents.
Rub both grill grates with a soft cloth wetted with cooking or
frying oil.
Pre-firing the barbecue
Before using the barbecue for the first time, heat it up for at
least 10 to 20 minutes to burn away production residues. In
the process, intense odor may develop, which is harmless and
only lasts for a short time. Do not touch hot surfaces during
preheating to avoid damaging them. Close the lids for a few
minutes during pre-firing. Always set the gas barbecue to a
small or medium flame when the lid is closed. Remove the
lids for the rest of the pre-firing process.

Operation

Danger! Risk of explosion!
Read through the following instructions for turning
on/firing up the barbecue and all warnings and
safety instructions before actually firing up the
barbecue.
- Check the barbecue for cracks, cuts or other damage
before using it.
- Stop using the barbecue if the gas hose is damaged or
broken.
- Open the barbecue lid before igniting the burner. An
explosive flash may otherwise result, which can cause
severe physical injuries and even death.
Danger! Risk of burns!
Do not touch the barbecue and food being grilled
during use as they become extremely hot and can
cause severe burns.
- Before barbecuing for the first time, heat up the barbecue
for at least 15 minutes with a lid closed and on a high flame
without grillables. The heat cleans the internal parts and
burns away the production residues of colored barbecue
parts. In the process, odors and some smoke may develop.
However, they are harmless and only last for a short time.
Ensure sufficient ventilation.
- Keep sufficient distance from hot parts since any contact
can cause severe burns.
- Always wear barbecue or oven gloves (e.g. Category II
heat-resistant gloves rated according to DIN-EN 407) when
grilling.
- Use only long-handled barbecue utensils with heat-
resistant grips.
- Do not wear clothing with wide sleeves.
- When using the barbecue, the floor and surrounding walls
can be soiled, e.g. through fat splashes. Ensure that they
are adequately protected against such soiling.
Danger! Risk of burns and accidents!
