5.6 Enamel parts
Some of the parts on the barbecue have an enamel coating. Enamel is a glass-based product
and is very durable and resistant to wear. However, it is not resistant to shocks and knocks,
which may cause hairline cracks. The hairline cracks can lead to small pieces of enamel breaking
off, which leads to rust forming. The performance of your barbecue will not be affected by the
broken off pieces or hairline cracks. No claims can be made regarding damages to the enamel in
the cooking area after use.
5.7 Ventilation
The burners can only function properly if the heat they produce can escape as well. If this is not
possible, then the burners may not get enough oxygen, which may cause backfiring, especially
if the burners are set to "HIGH". If this happens regularly, it may cause the burners to develop
cracks. For this reason, there are ventilation openings around the barbecue. These allow the
hot air to escape. Always ensure that there is sufficient space around the cooking area (the
racks will allow sufficient space). Never cover the ventilation openings with aluminium foil or
other materials that can impede the airflow. NEVER allow the cooking surface to be completely
covered, for instance by a large pan or by completely filling it with grill trays.
5.8 Replacing the gas hose
The gas hose should be replaced every two years. Rubber gas hoses can dry out which may
result in gas leaks.
5.9 Burners
It is normal for rust (oxidation) to form around the burners. Food remnants must be removed
regularly. This can be done by means of a barbecue cleaning brush. Burners must periodically
be removed for inspection and cleaning, in particular after a period of non-use/storage. The
burners must be checked for their general condition and to ensure that the openings are not
blocked. The burners can be cleaned with the use of a brush. When removing the burners,
make sure that you do not damage the gas valve and the ignition electrode.
An opening has been placed intentionally in the first part of the burner to ensure that enough
oxygen can be supplied to form a flammable mixture. This means you will see a small opening,
just where the gas valve connects to the burner. No gas will leak from this.
5.10 Spiders and insects
Spiders and insects can make their nest inside the burners of the barbecue, which may cause
gas to flow from the front of the burner. This is a dangerous situation that can cause a fire
behind the operation panel. This will damage the barbecue, which will then no longer be safe
to use. Therefore, we recommend that you check the barbecue at least once a year for spiders,
insects and nests (particularly after long storage periods). You can do this by dismantling the
burner tubes and blowing through them or brushing them clean.
