FAQs
What type of gas does the Tower Tourer BBQ use?
This BBQ operates on gas. (Info needed: Please refer to your product manual or packaging for the specific type of gas cylinder or cartridge required, as portable BBQs can vary, typically using small propane or butane cartridges, or a larger tank with an adapter).
How many people can I cook for with this BBQ?
The Tower Tourer Portable Gas BBQ is designed to comfortably cook for 2 to 4 people, making it perfect for small families, couples, or intimate gatherings.
Are the grill plates easy to clean?
Yes, the BBQ features porcelain enamel-coated steel grill plates, which are known for their non-stick properties and ease of cleaning. Allow them to cool, then brush off residue and wash with warm, soapy water.
Can I use this BBQ indoors or on a balcony?
No, this gas BBQ is designed for outdoor use only in a well-ventilated area. Using it indoors, in a tent, or on an enclosed balcony can be extremely dangerous due to carbon monoxide buildup and fire risk.
Is assembly required?
Minimal assembly is required, primarily involving unfolding the legs, attaching the grill plates, and connecting the gas supply. The design prioritizes quick setup for portability.
How compact is it when stored?
Thanks to its collapsible legs and folding side shelf, the Tower Tourer BBQ folds down to a highly compact size, specifically designed to fit neatly into a car boot or small storage space. (Info needed: Specific folded dimensions are not provided, but it's designed for easy transport and storage).
Troubleshooting
BBQ won't ignite or burners won't light.
Check the gas supply. Ensure the gas cylinder is not empty and is properly connected and turned on. Verify the igniter is working by listening for a click and checking for a spark. If manual ignition is possible, try using a long lighter. Clean any clogged burner ports.
Uneven heating across the grill surface.
Ensure the BBQ is placed on a level surface. Check if burner ports are clear of debris or food particles, which can obstruct gas flow. Clean burner tubes if necessary. Ensure the gas pressure is consistent (if using a regulator, check its function).
Difficulty moving the BBQ despite castor wheels.
Check if the castor wheels are locked; unlock them for free movement. Ensure the path is clear of obstacles and the ground is relatively even. Clean any debris or dirt that might be jamming the wheels.
Food sticking to the grill plates.
Preheat the BBQ to the correct temperature before placing food on the grill. Ensure grill plates are clean and lightly oiled before cooking. Avoid flipping food too early; allow it to cook long enough to release naturally.
