Like that, you expand the hottest part of the bowl and you can
make optimal use of the grill surface of your appliance.

10.7 Taking advantage of the heat zones

When all burners are lit, the burner hoods distribute the heat as
evenly as possible over the grill. Despite this even heating, some
zones are still hotter than others. You can take advantage of
these heat zones to grill your food to perfection:
Zone Hot?
Front Hot Grill delicate food (prawns, fish...)
Centre Hotter Prepare food that needs some time to
cook (e.g. sausages, chicken ties...)
Back Hottest Sear meat and vegetables
2
You can also create heat zones by playing with the power
of the burners. You can, for example, set a burner to a
lower position and use the zone above that burner for
delicate food or food that needs some time to cook.

10.8 Avoiding flare-ups

During grilling, some flare-ups are normal. Too many flare-ups,
however, increase the temperature in the appliance and can
ignite accumulated fat. To avoid flare-ups:
• Make sure the bowl is clean when you start grilling. We
recommend cleaning the bowl after each use. See

"11.2 Cleaning the bowl".

• Regularly check if the fat drip tray is not full yet.
• When grilling fatty meat, trim excess fat, close the lid and set
the burners to a medium or low position.

MAINTAINING THE APPLIANCE

11.1 Cleaning the grill

We recommend cleaning the grill after each use, with the
Barbecook cleaner. Proceed as follows:
1 Spray the foam on the grill and let it act for a while.
The foam discolours, as it soaks off the dirt and greases.
2 Remove the foam with a soft sponge and water and rinse the
grill thoroughly.
3 Dry the grill well and store it in a dry place. This prevents
formation of rust.

You can also clean the grill with a soft detergent or with
sodium bicarbonate. Never use oven cleaners on the grill.
11.2 Cleaning the bowl
We recommend cleaning the bowl after each use. To do so,
remove the bottom trays from the bowl and clean them properly.
You can:
• Put the trays in your dishwasher. This might, however, not
remove all encrustations and greases.
12
• Clean the trays with the Barbecook cleaner. Use it the same
way you do on the grills.

11.3 Cleaning the burners and venturis

11.3.1 W
Spiders and insects can make webs and nests in the burners and
venturis. This may block the gas supply to the burners. As a
result:
• You cannot light the burners. If you manage to light them
anyway, they will only produce smoky and yellow flames.
• The gas can start burning outside the venturis, at the control
knobs. These fires are called flash-backs and can result in
serious injuries and material damage.

Damages caused by blocked burners and venturis are
regarded as inadequate maintenance and are not
covered by the warranty.
11.3.2 W
You have to clean the burners and venturis of your appliance:
• Before the first use after a long period of non-use.
• At least twice a year, of which once at the beginning of the
season.
11.3.3 T
1 Remove the burners from the appliance as shown on the
illustrations. If you notice that a burner is damaged, you have
to replace it.
