Lid-Down Cooking

Helpful Tips to Get You Started

Grilling: A direct cooking method for searing food directly above the heat source on the cooking grill.
Reversible Steam Pan and Reservoir: These accessories enable steaming, smoking, or defrosting. Refer to your Owner's Manual for detailed setup instructions.
Hotplate Cooking: An optional hotplate accessory can be used on the left or right side of the cooking grill for foods that might fall through the grill, such as eggs or pancakes.
Cleaning and Maintenance: Clean your barbecue before each use. Brush the grills clean after preheating. A thorough cleaning is recommended every 5 cooks. Refer to your Owner's Manual for details.

Factors Affecting Cooking Times

The suggested settings are based on testing in a sheltered outdoor environment at approximately 20°C. Adjust preheat times, cook settings, or barbecue settings based on your cooking conditions and personal taste.
