Using for the First Time: Before cooking, turn on the grill and operate on “HIGH” for about 10–15 minutes with the lid open. Close the lid and continue to run the grill on “HIGH” for another few minutes. After this, your grill should be burned in and ready to use.

Preparation: The barbecue should be preheated before adding any food. This is done by lighting the grill and running at “HIGH” for up to ten minutes with the lid down. If the food you are cooking needs a lower temperature, turn the control knob to the required setting before adding food.

Cooking Time: This is affected by many things and experience in grilling will help you. The kind of food, the thickness of the food, and even the weather can have an effect on cooking time. You will learn that on a hot day, a lower setting will work better and on a cold day a higher setting may work better.

Flare-ups:Flare-ups can increase the temperature in the grill and add to the buildup of grease, increasing the risk of a grease fire. Some flare-ups are normal to create smoke, which helps add to the flavour of your food. To keep these flare-ups to the desire level, do the following:

Always trim fat from steaks / red meats before grilling.

Cook chicken and pork on a lower setting.

Make sure the grease drain hole is clear and that the grease catcher is not filled.

Always cook with the lid down, and cook at the lowest efficient heat setting.

Note: With the lid down, you will keep a more consistent temperature inside the cooking area and use less energy / gas.

How to Prevent Food From Sticking on the Cooking Grates

Marinating, or lightly oiling the food before placing it on the cooking grates, will help prevent food from sticking onto the grate.

Food may stick if turned too soon after putting it on the cooking grates. Let food cook for a few minutes before turning it, so that it will have time to properly sear.

Do not leave your barbecue unattended, and watch out for children around the barbecue. Make sure the barbecue is functioning safely at all times. Do not move the barbecue while cooking. Make sure the lava rocks are dry, because when wet they may breakup

due to the steam they generate.
