Connecting the gas system
WARNING: RISK OF FIRE AND EXPLOSION
• The gas barbecue should only be operated with a low pressure regulator. The enclosed pressure regulator has been correctly set in the factory for
operation with liquid petroleum gas (LPG). In addition, read and follow the separate assembly and usage instructions which accompany the pressure
regulator
• If necessary, the gas hose has to be exchanged if there are corresponding national requirements.
• Make sure that there are no sources of naked flames (or similar) in the vicinity when you change the gas cylinder.
• When buying or renting the gas cylinder, let the store advise you.
• The appliance must be connected in the way that is described in these instructions.
• Make sure that the gas hose is not buckled or worn
• After assembling the gas system, check all of the connections for tightness with a standard leak detection spray or soapy water. It is strictly prohibited to
test the seal with a naked flame!
Operating the gas barbecue
WARNING: RISK OF FIRE AND EXPLOSIONS
• Do not smoke when handling the gas system. Do not place the gas cylinder in the vicinity of a naked flame.
• Only use the gas barbecue outdoors. Make sure that the gas barbecue is protected from the wind.
• Protect the barbecue from rain, moisture, water splashes, etc
• Place the gas barbecue on a level, stable and fireproof surface.
• Protect the gas cylinder from direct sunlight.
• Before operating the appliance, always check the hose and the pressure regulator for cracks and damage.
• Do not operate the gas barbecue if the pressure regulator, hose or gas cylinder are defective or if they are not sealed.
• Insects often build nests in the pipes of the burner. Before operating the burner, always check it for foreign objects. Remove foreign objects with a brush
(bottle brush, pipe cleaner).
• Do not ignite the gas flame with a naked flame. To ignite, use the electrical ignition that is installed in the appliance.
• In order to protect against gas that flows out by accident, the cylinder valve on the gas cylinder should only be opened when the gas barbecue is opera-
tional. After you shut off the barbecue grill, always make sure that you shut the cylinder valve.
• Whilst operating the appliance, make sure that you maintain a safe distance from combustible and heat sensitive materials. The distance should not be
less than 1 m
• Make sure that there are no objects or parts of the building above the gas barbecue.
• During operation, the surfaces of the gas barbecue are very hot. Warn people who are standing around and keep well away from children.
• During operation, do not leave the gas barbecue unattended.
• In the case of a fault, shut the valve of the gas cylinder.
• Before changing the position of the barbecue it must be switched off, the valve of the gas cylinder must be shut and the gas cylinder must be removed
from the bottom part of the barbecue in order to protect the pressure regulator and the hose
Servicing the gas barbecue
WARNING: RISK OF FIRE AND EXPLOSION
• Repairs and servicing of the gas system should only be carried out by authorised experts. Do not carry out any changes to the gas barbecue or the
pressure regulator
• Replace the pressure regulator after at least 2 years and the hose after 5 years, even if there are no visible external signs of damage. Make sure that
the pressure regulator is approved for the gas that is used and is set to the correct output pressure (see Technical data). A new hose should not be
longer than 1 5 m
• Together with oil, gas forms an explosive mixture. Never attempt to free stiff valves and control knobs with oil or penetrating oil.
Action when fighting fires
• Move persons who are standing around to a safe place! If possible, close the valve of the gas cylinder. Cool the gas cylinder with water. At the same time,
ensure your own safety! Spontaneous and explosive re-ignition is possible.
• Only extinguish leaking, burning gas if you cannot stop gas from escaping. All extinguishers can be used.
First aid measures
- Measures after inhaling gas
• High concentrations can cause suffocation. Symptoms can include loss of mobility and consciousness. The victim does not realise the suffocation are
suffocating. Low concentrations can result in dizziness, headaches, nausea and coordination problems.
• Bring the patient into the open air. Inform a doctor or the emergency services. In the event that the patient stops breathed, perform artificial respiration.
- Measures following major burns or scalding
• There is a risk of hypothermia and shock. Call the emergency services straight away!
• Extinguish any burning clothing with water straight away or smother the flames with a thick blanket.
• In the case of scalding: Remove clothing straight away.
