4. Use of your barbecue
4.1 General information
Even though all gas connections on the barbecue
are tested for leakages before transport, a complete
test must be carried out at the assembly site. During
transport or assembly, parts of the barbecue may have
been moved. It is also possible that the gas pressure
on the equipment is too high. Regularly inspect
the entire system for leaks and check the system
immediately in the event that you smell gas.
4.2 Gas leak test
Always carry out a gas leak test before use of the barbecue and when the barbecue
has not been used for some time.
* Extinguish any open fires (DO NOT SMOKE when testing for leaks).
* Never carry out this gas leak test near open flames.
* Make a soapy solution made up from equal parts of water and liquid soap or
gentle washingup liquid
* Follow the steps below:
1. Turn the control knobs of the burners to off.
2. Remove the battery from the electronic ignition.
3. Open the gas bottle.
4. Apply the soapy solution to all connections of the gas supply. If no soap
bubbles are formed, there is no gas leak. If soap bubbles start to form on a
connection, this indicates a leak. In the event that you detect a leak, turn the
gas supply off immediately, tighten the leaking connections firmly, open the
gas bottle again and repeat steps 1 through to 4.
5. Turn the gas supply off.
6. Turn the control knobs of the burners on for 10 seconds to let the pressure
escape from the hose and then turn the control knobs to off again.
7. Remove the soapy solution from the connections of the equipment with
cold water and rub dry with a cloth. Check all gas supply connections before
every use and do the same when the gas bottle is being connected to the
gas pressure regulator.
It is recommended that you check the gas hose for leaks every year, even if the
gas bottle has never been disconnected from the equipment.
