Congratulations on your purchase

Australia has an excellent safety record when it comes to gas appliances. This reflects both the high quality of appliances sold, as well as growing consumer awareness about safety. We urge you to follow the guidelines below together with these instructions for safe use, to prevent overheating and to produce great cooking results.

This range is an outdoor appliance only. Under no circumstances should it be used indoors.

This range has not been approved for marine use.

Do not perform any servicing on the range yourself. This includes internal adjustment of the regulator and gas valves. Servicing can only be carried out by authorised technicians.

It is important that you install your range exactly as described in these instructions. In particular: you should keep the barbeque clear of combustible material, and you should check for leaks whenever a new connection is made.

Do not store chemicals or flammable materials near this appliance.

Do not place articles on or against, or enclose this appliance.

This appliance gets extremely hot while in use. Keep children away from the appliance until it has cooled to normal temperatures.

It is a good idea to tie back long hair and loose clothing while cooking in case of unexpected flare ups.

Fat fires are the most common cause of problems in outdoor gas appliances. They can be caused by a build-up of grease in the grease channelling tray and the inside of the unit. A fat fire can be difficult to put out, and will be dangerous if it spreads to the gas hose. You should keep your range unit clean to avoid this occurrence. Fat fires will void the warranty.

Do not transport the range whilst it is hot because there is a risk that the contents of the grease cup will fall out.

NEVER leave the range unattended with any burners switched on. Always switch off all burners and cylinders when the range is not in use.

Take care when touching a hot appliance, especially on surfaces close to the burners or hotplate.

When cooking with the hotplate, turn the burner to LO or OFF as required to keep the hotplate from getting too hot. NEVER close the lids when the burners are in use or still hot.

NEVER leave all burners on HI for more than 15 minutes, always stay in control by adjusting burners to LO and OFF as required to maintain suitable cooking temperatures.

Follow all manufacturers’ instructions to periodically check for gas leaks.

By following these instructions for safe and easy operation, you will enjoy years of satisfying, trouble free outdoor cooking. And when you’re fully up and running, you can visit your retailer for some great accessories and cooking tips to make your experience even more rewarding. But first things first....

Where to put your range

This range is an outdoor appliance only. Under no circumstances should it be used indoors. You must observe the clearances listed on the data sticker on your range. These tell you how close you can put the barbeque to combustible surfaces (wood, gyprock, trees, wooden fences etc.). If you don’t follow these clearances, nearby surfaces will heat up and could catch fire. If you purchased your range in a cart: You don’t need to be concerned with side clearances. The range-cart combination has been laboratory tested, and complies with relevant Australian Standards. Keep the range sheltered from the wind. Wind interferes with the flames and can prevent your range from heating up properly and can even damage some components. Make sure the surface is level. This is safer, and makes cooking easier. Don’t put the range too close to windows or anywhere else where cooking smoke is likely to cause a problem. For Build-In Barbeques and Islands:

Separately available support brackets (part code: CDBIKL) are available if you wish to build your range into a non-combustible structure instead of a cart.

Ensure you leave sufficient clearance underneath the barbeque for removal and cleaning of grease channelling trays and receptacles.

For non-combustible build-in construction, leave a minimum 50 mm clearance behind the barbeque and do not block any side or front vents on the barbeque to allow the appliance to function properly. The 615 mm dimension below includes this 50 mm.

The distances from the barbeque to combustibles stated on the data plate must still be observed.

When installing the barbeque into a dedicated structure, ensure that the following is observed:

Width: 880 to 885 mm

Min 310 mm

Min 615 mm

Cylinder cabinet top

and bottom ventilation

details as detailed

below must be

observed.

Range must be separated from the cylinder cabinet.

Min 45 mm rear clearance to allow the lid

and matching bbq hood to open

Where to put your range (continued)

Adequate clearance around the range must be provided for safe and efficient operation the clearances shown in the diagram below ensures that the burners have a supply of fresh air to operate correctly. Failure to provide enough fresh air to the burners can cause the production of potentially deadly noxious gases.

The structure must be made of non-combustible material. Also, you need to ensure that there is a clearance of at least 300 mm between the sides and rear of the range and any combustible material (e.g. wooden fences and gyprock walls and painted surfaces). If part of the structure is composed of combustible materials, ensure that the combustible material is separated from the sides and rear of the range by at least 300mm.

There must be at least 1000 mm vertically above the appliance and any combustible material.

At least 45 mm clearance is required from the rear of the build-in range support bracket body to allow the lid (and matching bbq hood) to open freely. When fully open, the lid leans back slightly to prevent accidental closure.

In addition, where the cylinder is kept in an enclosed space underneath or near the build-in barbeque, the following must be observed:

The cylinder must rest on a base to ensure that water will not accumulate, and that the cylinder is clear of the surrounding soil.

There must be at least 200 square cm of ventilation openings per cylinder stored, at both the top and bottom of the cylinder compartment, so that any accumulating gas can quickly escape to the outside air. At least 50 square cm of the lower ventilation must be within 15 mm of the base of the enclosure.

There must be a separation panel between the gas cylinder and the range so that if a high pressure gas leak occurs, there is no direct path between the cylinder compartment and the range burners.

Note that all these conditions are met by using prefabricated island (code: PBIM4L) available from your local Barbeques Galore store.

Where to put your range (continued)

This appliance must only be used in an above ground, open air situation with natural ventilation, without stagnant areas, where gas leakage and products of combustion are rapidly dispersed by wind and natural convection. Any enclosure in which the appliance is used must comply with one of the following:

(2) Within a partial enclosure that includes an overhead

cover and no more than two walls.

(1) Any enclosure with walls on all sides, but at least one permanent opening at ground level, and no overhead cover.

(3) Within a partial enclosure that includes an overhead

cover and more than two walls, the following shall apply:

(i) At least 25% of the total wall area is

completely open; and

(ii) At least 30% of the remaining wall area is

open and unrestricted.

(iii) In the case of balconies, at least 20% of the

total of the side, back and front wall areas

shall be and remain open and unrestricted.

Checking the gas type and supply

Before assembling your barbeque, you should ensure your range is suited to the type of gas which you are going to use:

LPG, also known as Propane or Universal LPG:

Appliances suited to LPG should have an orange sticker on the side saying “UNIVERSAL LPG”.

This is most commonly supplied as a portable 4 kg or 9 kg gas cylinder, which can be refilled or swapped at petrol stations or your place of purchase when empty. Follow the assembly instruction steps for how to fit and connect your portable cylinder.

Some homes have twin 45 kg LPG cylinders permanently installed near an outside wall. These cylinders supply LPG gas to multiple appliances in the home via copper pipes, and are filled as required by the gas supply company.

Natural Gas: Appliance suited to natural gas should have a white sticker on the side saying “Natural Gas”. This is piped to your home in a similar fashion to water, so there are no cylinders to refill. You will need to contact your local gas company to determine if Natural Gas is available in your area. Fixed LPG Supply or Natural Gas Supply: Appliances which are connected to twin 45 kg LPG cylinders or to Natural Gas must be installed by a licensed gasfitter, in accordance with the requirements of AS 5601, and local gas authority requirements. There are two approaches to installation:

(1) Permanent Piped Connection: Your range may be permanently connected to the main gas lines or LPG cylinders via copper pipe. This must be done entirely by the gasfitter, in accordance with requirements of AS 5601, and local gas authority requirements. Your gasfitter will ensure that your range is permanently connected to the supply via copper pipe, the gas pressure in the lines is adequate, pipe sizes are correct, all connections are secure, and that all necessary components (such as secondary regulators and manual shutoffs) are included where regulations require them. Once this is done, the range cannot be moved. It is a permanent fixture of the property.

(2) Bayonet Point: Alternatively, you can have the gas fitter terminate the gas line using a “bayonet point”. This allows you to connect and disconnect the range using a special hose and bayonet termination. Such a hose is provided in the Natural Gas conversion kit NGCK250VJ. Follow the instructions supplied with the kit to complete the connection. For LPG installations, an appropriate hose is available from most barbeque retailers.

Checking the gas type and supply (continued)

Even if your outdoor area already has a bayonet point, you will still need to call upon a gas fitter to

ensure that gas pressure is sufficient for your range, and to ensure your barbeque functions

correctly before leaving. Where a gas fitter is required, the gasfitter must test the safety and

operation of the appliance before leaving, including gas pressure, ignition and burner operation.

Conduct a leak test before use. To the installer: You must instruct the consumer on safe operation, and ensure these instructions are left with the consumer before leaving the site. To Change the Gas Type of Your Range Unit: Your range unit was manufactured to use LPG. It can thus be connected to LPG without any alteration. If you wish to connect your range unit to natural gas, it will need to be converted beforehand using the correct conversion jets (code: NGCJCDB) available at your nearest Barbeques Galore store. This must be done by a licensed gas fitter or an authorised gas appliance technician. Connection to the natural gas supply must be done by a licensed gasfitter. If connecting to a standard bayonet outlet, the correct hose and governor assembly must be used (code: NGCK250VJ) available at your nearest Barbeques Galore store). If connecting direct to the gas supply, the gasfitter will need to use governor (code: RCV250) and appropriate fittings. It is extremely dangerous to use this range unit with the wrong type of gas. Fire or explosion may result. Always conduct a leak test before use –see details later in this manual under “Safety leak testing”.

Contents list

Start by unpacking the range unit, and placing it on a smooth, surface. Be careful not to damage the surfaces. If there is any protective on the range unit, it should be removed at the end of the assembly process. Check that you have all the contents as below. Remove all items from the carton including any packing materials to check the contents. Dispose of any packing materials only after assembly is complete.

Assembly instructions

If you are assembling a cart model or steel island, make sure you have the separately supplied steel cart (code MC4CBL).Assemble the cart(s) before you start on the range assembly. If you are assembling multiple units together (e.g. a Range and a 4B barbeque to make one joined unit), assemble each unit to its respective cart first. If you are fitting side shelves and / or a side burner, make sure you have the separately supplied pack of 2 shelves (code MC2CDFFL) or pack of 1 shelf + 1 side burner (code MC2CDFSL). If you are assembling a build-in or an island, make sure you have the separately supplied build-in kit (code CDBIKL) and if purchased, the separately supplied island (code PBIM4Lfor 4B alustone island). If you purchased an island, assemble the island before you start on the range assembly. If you want to run up to two adjacent gas modules (e.g. range unit and 4B bbq) from a single gas supply, you will need separately supplied corrugated gas extension pipe (code: CBGASEXT).

STEP 13: SHARING GAS SUPPLY BETWEEN ADJACENT MODULES: All Cordon Bleu gas modules have independent gas supply, but it is possible if required for only these combinations of maximum two adjacent joined modules from the same gas supply: 2B and adjacent 4B can run from the same gas supply. 2B and adjacent 2B can run from the same gas supply. 2B and adjacent Range can run from the same gas supply. 4B and adjacent Range can run from the same gas supply. Two adjacent Ranges can run from the same gas supply. One side burner attached to any of these combinations is allowable. WARNING: ANY OTHER COMBINATIONS OR EXTENDED COMBINATIONS IS NOT SAFE. ONE GAS SUPPLY, HOSE AND REGULATOR ASSEMBLY MUST STILL BE USEDFOR INDIVIDUAL MODULES.

Adjacent (e.g. 6B) shared gas supply assembly: WHAT YOU NEED

1 x separately supplied corrugated gas pipe (code CBGASEXT).

Take out the grease channelling trays. Using two spanners (one to hold the manifold, one to turn the cap), disconnect the gas tube cap from the right side of the bbq on the left. Using two spanners, (one to hold the manifold, one to turn the nut), disconnect the hose and regulator from the left side of the bbq on the right.

(a) Remove the grease

channelling tray and use

two spanners to disconnect

the cap from the manifold

outlet, (one spanner to hold

the manifold, the other to

loosen the cap).

(b) Thread the corrugated gas pipe between the two bbqs as shown. Tighten the pipe connections to each barbeque. Perform a leak test as outlined in following section under “Safety leak testing”


STEP 5 ALL MODELS: Fit the burner caps into position The burner caps should fit neatly and firmly into the burner body as shown.

STEP 6 ALL MODELS: Fit the hotplate and trivet into position as

shown

Connecting the gas cylinder

(If you are using Natural gas or connecting to a reticulated supply, refer to details at the start of this manual under “Checking the gas type and supply”). If you are using a portable LPG gas cylinder, place the LPG cylinder into the right side of the

cabinet, so that it sits inside the round cut out in the base shelf (or if your model has a slide out

cylinder drawer, sit the cylinder into the round cut out in the cylinder drawer). Take the hose that

came with the range, check that it has a rubber seal on the regulator end of it, and connect this

end of the hose to the gas cylinder. You won’t need a spanner here. Just turn the fitting in an

anticlockwise direction and hand tighten as much as you can. This should seal it sufficiently.

Ensure the gas cylinder is secure.

Safety leak testing

Before proceeding, it is important that you leak test the range unit. Make sure all the control knobs are OFF. If you have a portable gas cylinder, turn the cylinder ON by rotating the control knob anti-clockwise. If you have a wall connection, ensure the bayonet fitting is connected. Spray or pour soapy water (about the same concentration as washing up water) along the gas line including:

The gas connection at the inlet of the range unit.

The gas hose or copper piping, including any joints or bends in the piping.

The gas connection at the gas cylinder or the wall connection. If bubbles appear, there is a gas leak. If the leak is at a connection, tighten and retest. If the leak is anywhere else, or if you cannot resolve the leak, do not proceed.

If you have a portable gas cylinder, turn the gas cylinder OFF and consult your retailer.

If you have a bayonet connection, remove the hose from the wall fitting and consult your retailer.

NEVER use a flame to test for leaks. You can also check for leaks using a gas safety gauge, available at your Barbeques Galore store.

This provides an easier and more convenient way to check for leaks.

Lighting the range unit

Lighting the burners is easy, but must be done with due care. Ensure to start with that all the control knobs are in the OFF position. Make sure that the gas is turned on at the supply. Also ensure that the lids and lids are up. Note carefully that failure to follow the lighting procedures correctly can lead to a hazardous condition. Spark Ignition : Push the knob for the selected burner IN and turn anticlockwise to the HI position. You should hear an audible click. You may need to push and turn the knob several times before ignition. Manual ignition: You can light individual burners manually by holding a lighted match next to that burner, then turning the burner control knob to HI. Optional side burner: If you have a side burner, light it in exactly the same way as the main burners. If you have difficulty lighting: If the burner doesn’t light first go, return the knob to the OFF position, then try to light the burner a couple more times. If the burner still does not light, wait a few minutes to allow the gas to disperse before trying again. If satisfactory operation cannot be achieved, consult your retailer before proceeding. Controlling the flames: The knobs have three basic positions: OFF, HI and LO. You can achieve any flame height between LO and HI by rotating the barbeque control knob between these positions.

Lighting the range unit (continued)

Checking the Flames: Look at the burners so that you can see the flames. They should be a soft blue colour with yellow tips. If the flames are too yellow, there is too much gas and not enough air. The flame will be inefficient and will give off too much smoke.

If the flame is too pale, there is too much air and not enough gas. If either of these situations occurs, then you should consult your retailer before use. Special note: “Blowback” is a situation where the flame burns inside the burner, towards the front. It can be recognised by a sharp roaring sound coming from the burner. It is not dangerous unless it is allowed to persist. If this occurs, simply turn the burner off, wait a few seconds, then relight.

Turning OFF: When you’ve finished cooking, leave the burner controls on HI for a maximum of 5 minutes to burn off excess grease from the burner and other surfaces. To turn the range unit OFF, it is best to turn OFF the cylinder first, and allow all the gas left in the hose to burn off. This will only take a couple of seconds. Then turn OFF all burner controls. It is okay to leave the cylinder connected to your range unit while it’s not in use, but it is much safer to turn the gas cylinder OFF when it is not in use. If your range unit is connected to natural gas or piped LPG, you can simply turn the burner controls

OFF. If you have a hose connection with a shut off valve, it is much safer to turn the gas supply OFF when the range unit is not in use. Note carefully: Failure to follow these shutdown procedures correctly can lead to a hazardous condition.

First time use

Curing the cast iron: the hotplate has a tough, durable vitreous enamel surface that protects the cast iron from rust. It should be cleaned before and after use, but it does not need to be "cured" or re-oiled. It is to use canola oil or similar to prevent sticking while cooking. For ongoing protection of the cooking surfaces, follow the procedures in the Cleaning, Storage and Maintenance sections.

First time use (continued)

Your range unit is equipped with a two stage fat drainage system. Food residue drops onto the grease channelling tray, then falls through the centre hole into the grease cup below. It is a good idea to line the main fat channelling tray with aluminium foil to assist with cleaning. Ensure there is a hole in the foil to allow fats and oils to drip through into the disposable container below. Also, placing absorbent material into the disposable foil container will avoid splashing and overflowing when the container starts to fill. Suitable absorbent material is available from your local Barbeques Galore store.

The grease channelling trays and grease cup should be emptied, cleaned and refitted regularly. If not emptied, eventually a fat fire may occur. Fat fires are dangerous and not covered under warranty.

Preparing to cook The burners can be used for a variety of pots, pans, woks etc just like any stove top. The hotplate is cast iron, so needs a few minutes to heat up. This style of burner arrangement is similar to Teppanyaki" in that heat is concentrated toward the centre, reducing in intensity toward the edges. Lightly coat the hotplate with oil before use. This will reduce issues with food sticking. Light the burner and leave on high for about 3-5 minutes to warm the hotplate up. Once warmed up, you should set the burner to your desired cooking temperature. You’re now ready to start cooking up a feast.

Care and maintenance Cleaning your barbeque: Your range unit will look better and last longer if you keep it clean. Follow these simple steps. The cooking surface: While the cooking surface is still hot, take a long handled brush and a scraper and remove remaining oil and food scraps. Use an oven mitt to avoid burning yourself. The burners: Occasionally the burner holes may get clogged with grease and food particles. Leaving the burners on for a maximum of 5 minutes with the hood open after you’ve finished cooking will remove most of this. However, you should check the burners periodically for any sort of blockage. In particular, you should ensure that the aeration vents are free of insect nests and spider webs. To clean the burners, let them cool down, then remove and inspect them. If any of the holes are clogged, gently tap the burner onto a hard surface to remove residue. Use a wire brush to unclog the holes. Then lightly coat the burners with canola oil for ongoing protection.

Care and maintenance (continued) The range body: Grease can build up on the body of the range unit. Simply clean it off with hot water and detergent. Do not use oven cleaner as this will damage the surface coating. Stainless steel requires extra care. See the notes below. The grease channelling tray: You should change the fat absorbent material and empty the grease cup regularly. Also, keep the fat channelling tray itself clean to prevent a build-up of grease. If you don’t do this, a fat fire can result. This can be quite dangerous, and will void the warranty on your barbeque. How to care for stainless steel: Even though stainless steel is remarkably resistant to tarnish and rust relative to ordinary steels, it still needs proper care. We recommend the following:

After use, clean the stainless steel surfaces with fresh water and a soft cloth.

Where light cleaning is needed, a commercially available stainless steel cleaner with a soft cloth should be used.

To repair minor tea staining or pitting, you can use a light, non-metallic scour pad. It is important that you rub with the natural grain of the stainless steel surface to avoid leaving visible scratch marks.

Use 3M stainless steel cleaner available for your local Barbeques Galore store to polish and protect all stainless steel surfaces. Follow the manufacturer's instructions on the can. Do not use while the barbeque is on or still hot!

Between uses, it is a good idea to leave the barbeque covered to prevent dust and air borne salts settling on the stainless steel surfaces. If left for too long, these particles can act as rust centres.

Use a ventilated cover, or add a couple of sponges between the cover and the barbeque to promote ventilation and reduce condensation.

With a small amount of care, your investment in quality stainless steel will keep its beautiful finish as well as its value for a long time to come. Storing Your Range Unit: Your range unit is designed to be used outdoors. However, just like a car, you will prolong the life of the appliance if you store it out of direct exposure to the elements when not in use. This can be done in many ways:

Place a waterproof cover over it. These are available from most barbeque retailers. Use a ventilated cover, or add a couple of sponges between the cover and the barbeque to promote ventilation and reduce condensation.

Move the range to a covered location. If you are storing it in a closed room (e.g. a shed or a garage) then keep the cylinder outdoors and away from any other cylinders or any cars, boats, motorcycles or any other petrol engines.

If you don’t intend to use it for a few months, lightly spray all surfaces with canola oil. This will help protect against corrosion.

Care and maintenance (continued) Servicing Your Range Unit:

Apart from cleaning, your barbeque is a fairly low maintenance item. A couple of things are worth looking at though. Remember to turn off and disconnect the gas before any maintenance is carried out.

If your barbeque uses a flexible hose to connect to the gas, check the rubber O-ring on the regulator end of the hose assembly at least once a year. If it appears worn or cracked, have it replaced.

We recommend having your barbeque checked by an authorised service agent every 5 years. This is to ensure there are no leaks and that all components are still functioning correctly.

If you use a portable LPG gas cylinder, you will need to have the cylinder serviced or replaced every ten years. The date of the last service should be stamped on the neck of the bottle.

As you can see, it’s easy to keep your barbeque in great shape so it can give you years of trouble free enjoyment.

Replacing the hose: If there are any signs of wear or cracking in the range hose, you need to replace it immediately. Ensure you replace only with the correct hose and regulator purchased from Barbeques Galore to ensure proper gas connection compatibility and safety. Connect the nut of the hose to the same gas inlet of the range to which the old one was connected. Use two spanners to tighten it properly, one to hold the inlet, one to turn the hose nut. Do not use sealing tape. The connection is designed to seal properly without it. Perform a leak test as explained in the installation section before use. Replacing the burners: Occasionally you will need to remove your burners for cleaning or adjustment.

Occasionally you will need to remove your burners for cleaning or adjustment. To remove the burner, first remove the top brass burner head. Then, unscrew the brass nut which holds the burner base. The burner pipe and the round burner bracket should now be easily removed. To replace the burner, remember to place the open end of the pipe over the gas jet at the front of the range unit. Then, reassemble in reverse order to the above.
