Check that the hose is in good condition and replace it if it appears cracked or damaged.
The hose must lie naturally with no twists or pulling. Ensure it does not come into
contact with any hot parts of the appliance. After connecting the hose to the appliance,
connect the pressure regulator to the hose and gas cylinder as per the instructions
supplied with the pressure regulator and hose. Then, perform a leak-tightness test as
follows:
− Check leak-tightness by using soapy water away from any heat source (cigarettes,
electrical appliances, etc.).
− Never test leak-tightness using a flame.
− Put soapy water on all connections, open the gas inlet and then check for the
formation of bubbles.
− If any bubbles form, then there is a leak. Close the gas cylinder and tighten the
connections, then perform another leak-tightness test.
− If the leak persists or comes from a different part, stop using your plancha and
contact your dealer.
Never use an appliance that leaks gas.
CHANGING THE GAS CYLINDER
Always turn off the control knobs and gas cylinder valve before changing the gas
cylinder.
Change the gas cylinder in a well-ventilated location away from any heat source
(cigarettes, electrical appliance, etc.).
Whenever you change the gas cylinder, perform a leak-tightness test.
