To do

Read these instructions carefully and keep them close to hand; the instructions are general for the different versions depending on the accessories delivered with your appliance.
Before use, ensure that the barbecue is placed on a flat, stable, heat, and water-resistant surface.

Make sure the pan of the barbecue is stable and well-placed, on the base of the appliance.
Empty and clean the drip tray after every use.
Always ensure that the barbecue has completely cooled down before transporting it or handling the accessories (grill, juice tray, flavourer…).
Product with reversible cooking plates (*depending on model): check that both sides of the plate are well cleaned before use – do not turn over the plate during use.
Only buy wood chips designed for smoking and recommended for barbecues (do not use “pellets” designed for heating or wood chips for gardening).
If an accident occurs, pour cold water on the burn immediately and call a doctor if necessary.
Be careful of the position of the plug with or without the extension; take all the necessary precautions to ensure that the circulation of others around the table is not inhibited so that people do not get entangled.
Cooking fumes could be dangerous to animals with a particularly sensitive respiratory system, like birds. If you have birds at home, we recommend that you place them well away from your cooking spot.
For optimum performance, it is recommended that you pre-heat the appliance with its lid on.
