F. CHECkING FOR GAS LEAkS
1. Work outside, away from all sources of ignition. Do not
smoke.
2. Make sure the control knobs are in the "off" (O) position.
3. Connect the flexible tubing to the connector and barbecue
as described in part e).
4. Fit the regulator onto the gas cylinder in accordance with
its instructions.
5. Use a gas leak solution to test for leaks. Important: never
use a naked flame to check for gas leaks.
6. (Fig. 4) Apply the solution to the connections cylinder/
regulator/ hose/appliance (the control knobs should remain
closed: off position (O)). Open the gas cylinder valve.
7. Bubbles in the gas leak solution indicate that there are
gas leaks.
8. The leak can be stopped by tightening any hose connection
or replacing any faulty component. The barbecue must not
be used until the leak is stopped.
9. Close the valve on the gas cylinder.

Important:

Check for leaks at least once per year and each time the gas
cylinder is replaced.
Never use a flame to detect a leak.
G. PRIOR TO uSE
Never use the appliance until the instructions have been read
carefully and understood. Additionally, ensure that :
y There are no leaks.
y (Fig.5) the venture tubes are not blocked (example : spider
webs).
y (Fig.1) The hose does not touch any components which
may get hot.
y The lid is not in closed position (depending on models).
y This appliance is equipped with wide holes for air circulation.
Ensure that these holes are not obstructed.
H. IGNITION OF THE BuRNERS
Never light the appliance with the lid closed, only with the
lid opened.
Models with integrated ignition :
1. (Fig. 7-A) Open the lid.
2. (Fig. 7-B) Make sure that the control knobs are in the "OFF"
position (O). Open the gas cylinder valve.
3. (Fig. 8) Push and turn the control knob counter-clockwise to
the ignition position ( ). Keep the control knob pressed and
the electronic ignitor will generate a burst of sparks. When the
burner is lit, turn the control knob to the full flow position(
NOTE: If the burner does not ignite after about 10 seconds,
wait 5 minutes and then repeat the operation.
4. Once the burner is lit, there are two ways of lighting another
burner:
y Repeat the lighting operation described above;
y Light the burner to the right or left of the first lighted
burner, then the other burners in turn by turning the
control knob to the full flow position (
5. If the electronic ignition doesn't work, use the manual
ignition (see section I)
Models with separate ignition button :
Read steps 1 to 6 before beginning with step 1.
1. Make sure the 2 control knobs are in the "off" (O) position.
2. Open the gas cylinder valve.
3. Press one of the 2 control knobs and turn it to the full flame
