3.6 Cooking Advice

Direct cooking: food cooked directly on a grill positioned above a lit burner.

Indirect cooking: food cooked on a grill positioned adjacent to the lit burner.

• During indirect cooking the lid (if fitted) must be left closed and only opened if the temperature exceeds 300°C. Close it again after 5 minutes have passed.

• Water should always be poured into the dripping pans for more succulent cooking results and to simplify cleaning of the barbecue after use.

• Always preheat at the minimum setting.

15

Use

• For processes requiring more powerful grilling, preheat the burners for 15 minutes.

• Preheat for indirect cooking by igniting the burner where the food is to be placed for 5 minutes at the minimum setting and the other burners at the maximum setting for 10 minutes.

• During direct cooking (meat or fish), if the heat is too high and burns the food, turn the burners down using the knob, or else move the food.

• During cooking, it is recommended to remove the liquid waste compartment cover to allow cooking fumes to escape.

Meat (direct cooking)

The burners must be set to maximum. The cooking time varies depending on the thickness of the food and personal taste.

For best results when grilling, brown the outside at maximum heat then use the knobs to turn the burners down to a medium / minimum setting to allow the meat to cook right through without burning on the outside.

The appearance of flames, when cooking pork (i.e. fatty foods) in particular, is normal and is caused by dripping fat. Do not worry, but move the food being cooked to another part of the grill.

To allow this, it is best not to fill the whole grill with food for cooking.

It is recommended to preheat the burners at maximum power for 5-

10 minutes with the lid (where fitted) closed, depending on the thickness of the meat.

Meat (indirect cooking)

After preheating with the burners at the minimum setting and the lid (where fitted) closed, place the meat on a grill next to the lit burner. For example, the meat can be placed on the central grill after the side burners have been ignited.

The advantage of indirect cooking is that the heat is less fierce. Start cooking with the burners on the minimum setting then gradually turn them up over time.

Naturally, it takes considerably longer than direct cooking, but excellent results will be assured.

Large pieces of meat or fish such as roasts, whole chickens, lamb and other particularly thick/fat cuts are suitable for indirect cooking.

Vegetables and fish (direct cooking)

Arrange the vegetables and/or fish on the grill after preheating. Given the nature of these foods, the knobs should be kept turned to the minimum setting.

It is recommended to preheat the burners at minimum power for 15 minutes with the lid (where fitted) closed.

5.3 Adapting to different types of gas

The appliance is pre-set for natural gas at a pressure of 1.0 kPa.

In case of operation with other types of gas, the burner nozzles must be changed and the minimum flame adjusted on the gas taps.

Replacing nozzles

1. Remove the grills and griddle, diffusers and then the components (see

“Diffusers”).

2. Remove the burners (see “Removing the burners”).

3. Replace the nozzles using a 7 mm socket wrench according to the gas to use (see

“Burner and nozzle characteristics tables”).

• The hose is not in contact with sharp objects or sharp corners;

• If the hose is not perfectly airtight and leaks gas, do not try to repair it; replace it with a new hose.

4. Reposition the burners in their correct seats.

Adjusting the minimum setting for natural gas

Light the burner and turn it to the minimum position. Extract the gas tap knob and turn the adjustment screw next to the tap rod

(depending on the model) until the correct minimum flame is achieved.

Refit the knob and verify that the burner flame is stable.

28

Installation

Turn the knob rapidly from the maximum to the minimum setting: the flame should not go out. Repeat the operation on all gas taps.

Adjusting the minimum setting for LPG

Tighten the screw located at the side of the tap rod clockwise all the way.

Following adjustment to a gas other than the one originally set in the factory, replace the gas setting label fixed to the appliance with the one corresponding to the new gas. The label is inserted inside the nozzle pack (where present).

Lubricating the gas taps

Over time the gas taps may become difficult to turn and get blocked. Clean them internally and replace the lubrication grease.

Check for any gas leaks

These operations must be carried out when the barbecue is connected for the first time and every time that it is disconnected and reconnected to the gas supply.

Once the barbecue hose has been connected to the gas supply (LPG), proceed as follows:

1. Open the gas valve on the LPG canister

(or rotate the tap for the Natural Gas supply), BUT DO NOT ATTEMPT TO

LIGHT THE BURNERS .

2. With gas pressure in the hose, check for any leaks on all the connections using a soap and water solution. Never use a naked flame to check for leaks.

3. In the event that there is a leak, bubbles will appear on the faulty connection where the gas is escaping.

4. Close the gas tap of the gas canister, tighten the leaking connection and then repeat the test.

5. If the gas leak persists, contact the nearest supplier.

Never use a flame to detect leaks

Gas taps should be greased by a specialised technician.
