Fisher & Paykel BGB48 Gas Grill User Manual


 
When using the side burners always use flat bottomed pans which are large enough to cover the side burner.
Adjust the flame so that it heats only the bottom of the pan to avoid ignition of clothing. Position handles inward
away from open edges of the unit to avoid burns associated with unintentional spillovers. Hold the handle of the
pan to prevent movement of it when turning or stirring food. For proper lighting and performance of the burners
keep the ports clean. It is necessary to clean periodically for optimum performance.
This professional outdoor grill delivers extreme heat. Take care during and after use, as all surfaces may be hot.
Clean the grill with caution. Avoid steam burns; do not use a wet sponge or cloth to clean the grill while it is hot.
Some cleaners produce noxious fumes or can ignite if applied to a hot surface.
Be sure all grill controls are turned off and the grill is cool before using any type of aerosol cleaner on or around
the grill. The chemical that produces the spraying action could, in the presence of heat, ignite or cause metal parts
to corrode.
Do not use the grill for cooking excessively fatty meats or products which promote flare-ups.
Never grill without the drip pan and grease tray in place and the drip pan pushed all the way to the back of the
grill. Without it hot grease could leak downward and produce a fire or explosion hazard.
Do not operate the grill under un protected combustible construction. Use only in well ventilated areas. Do not
use in buildings, garages, sheds, breezeway, covered structure or other such enclosed areas. This unit is for out-
door use only. Always ensure adequate ventilation for the grill. Never block any ventilation openings.
If a cart unit is stored indoors, ensure that it is cool, fold the side shelf down, then push, never pull, the grill and
never push or pull on the side shelves. If LPG, the cylinder must be unhooked and the LPG cylinder stored outside
in a well ventilated area, out of reach of children.
If grill is mounted on a mobile cart: do not remove castor wheels from cart, as resting the cart directly on its base
will block ventilation openings, causing a hazardous situation. Keep ventilation openings on side walls and base of
cart unobstructed at all times.
Never use the grill in a windy area.
Do not use charcoal or lighter fluid in the outdoor grill. Charcoal or similar combustible fuels must not be used with
the appliance.
Keep any electrical supply cord, or the rotisserie motor cord away from the heated areas of the grill and water
(pools, fountains, puddles).
Never use a dented or rusty LPG cylinder. Keep the ventilation openings of the cylinder enclosure free and clear
from debris.
Use only dry potholders; moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may cause burns from steam. Do not use a
towel or bulky cloth in place of potholders. Do not let potholders touch hot portions of the grill or burner grate.
Have an ABC rated Fire Extinguisher accessible – never attempt to extinguish a grease fire with water or other liq-
uids.
To avoid burns when cooking, use long handled BBQ tools.
Do not move the appliance during its use.
Do not locate the outdoor grill in an inclined plane. Be sure to lock the castor wheels before operating the unit.
This unit is for outdoor use only! Do not operate in enclosed areas. This could result in carbon monoxide build-up
which would result in injury or death.
When using a grill, be sure that all parts of the unit are firmly in place and that the grill is stable (can’t be tipped
over).
To put out flare-ups, adjust the controls to lower the temperature.
Open the hood before lighting a grill burner or the rotisserie burner.
When cooking with the hood closed, use the LOW setting only.
Do not use the rotisserie burner in combination with any grill burner.
This outdoor cooking gas appliance is not intended to be installed in or on recreational vehicles, trailers and/or
boats.
