6 GETTING THE APPLIANCE READY
FOR USE
6.1 Prior to first use / after prolonged
period of non use
Do not use the barbecue before you haveread, understood and
checked all informationin this manual. Ensure that:
•
The barbecue is correctly installed
•
There is no leak in the gas supply (see “5)
•
The burners are correctly installed, the venturi tubes are
properly placed over the openings of the gas valves, and
there are no obstructions (see safety information and
cleaning of the burners)
•
None of the gas supply hoses can come into contact with
a hot surface
•
Your barbecue is installed in a safe place
6.2 Lighting the burners
You must have followed all the checks and procedures in the
section headed “Before the first use” before igniting the Plancha.
•
Do not lean directly over the Plancha when lighting the
burners. The control knobs on the Plancha must be in the
OFF position.
•
Open the tap on the gas cylinder slowly. Before turning the
control knob on one burner, wait for about 10 seconds to
allow the gas to stabilise.
•
Never try to light all the burners at once.
6.3 Lighting the burners using the igniter
•
Open the tap on the gas cylinder.
•
Press one of the two knobs in and turn it to HIGH. You will
hear the piezo ignition light once when it clicks.
•
The spark will light the burner.
•
If the burner does not ignite after three attempts, turn off the
gas and wait for five minutes before trying again. This will
allow accumulated gas to disperse. Try again, repeating the
previous steps.
•
If the burner still fails to ignite, read the “Troubleshooting”
section to determine the cause and the solution, or use a
match as explained below.
6.4 Lighting the burners using a match
Remove the griddle from the appliance. Now the burners are
visible and easy to reach. You can now light the burners using a
long match if the piezo ignition does not work.
•
Open the tap on the gas cylinder.
•
Hold the lighted match through the opening about 13 mm
from the burner.
•
Press in the desired knob and turn to ‘High’. The fire should
light within five seconds. If not, turn the knob off and wait
for five minutes to allow the gas to disperse.
•
Repeat steps 1 to 5. If the burner still fails to ignite after
three attempts, read the “Troubleshooting” section.
6.5 Lighting the other burner
The second burner is lit in the same way as the first.
6.6 Visual check of the flames
Each time you light a burner, you have to check its flames. A
perfect flame is almost completely blue, with some yellow at the
