When the gas is on its way to the burners, it passes through the
venturis. Thanks to the holes at the sides, the gas is then mixed
with air and - as a result - with oxygen. This is necessary for a
good ignition in the burners: only the correct mixture of gas and
oxygen will ignite properly and will result in nice flames.
4.2 Burner hoods
The burner hoods are the hoods that you mount above the
burners of your appliance. They protect the burners from
dripping fat. The holes at the sides of the hoods also distribute
the heat over the grill, so it is heated much faster and more
evenly.
4.3 Enamel
Some parts of the appliance are covered in a layer of melted
glass, called enamel. This enamel protects the underlying metal
from corrosion. Enamel is a high-quality material: it is resistant to
rust, does not fade under the influence of high temperatures and
is very easy to maintain.
1
Because the enamel is less flexible than the metal which
it covers, pieces of enamel can chip off when you handle
the appliance incorrectly. To avoid problems, be careful
when assembling enamelled parts and always maintain
the enamel as described further in this manual.
4.4 Flare-ups
Flare-ups are sudden flames that spark from the bowl when you
are grilling. They are usually caused by dripping fat or marinade.
5 ASSEMBLING THE APPLIANCE
5.1 Safety instructions
• Do not modify the appliance when assembling it. It is very
dangerous and not allowed to alter parts that are
pre-assembled and/or sealed by the manufacturer.
• Always follow the assembly instructions carefully.
• The user is responsible for the correct assembly of the
appliance. Damages caused by improper assembly are not
covered by the warranty.
5.2 To assemble the appliance
You need a cross-slotted screwdriver, a flat-slotted screwdriver
and an AA battery (electrical igniter). There are no batteries
supplied with the appliance.
1 Put the appliance on a flat and clean surface.
2 Assemble the appliance as shown on the assembly
drawings. You find them in the second part of this manual,
after the exploded view of your appliance.
0
To make the assembly easier, some screws are
premounted in the correct screw hole. You have to loosen
these screws a few millimeters before assembling the
appliance. This allows you to slide parts over the screws
and tighten them very easily.
1
Be careful when assembling enamelled parts. The tools
and screws may damage the enamel. Use the provided
fiber washers to protect the enamel around the screws.
0
The blister packs can contain more screws than
necessary. Screws can be left over after the assembly.
6 CONNECTING GAS TO THE
APPLIANCE
6.1 Which cylinder, hose and regulator?
To connect gas to the appliance, you need a gas cylinder, hose
and pressure regulator. The hose and regulator are supplied with
the appliance, the cylinder is not.
Which cylinder, hose and regulator you have to use, depends on
the country you live in. In Austria (AT), Switzerland (CH) and
Germany (DE), you have to use a propane cylinder and a hose
and regulator for 50 mbar.
1
If you have to replace the hose or pressure regulator, buy
materials with the same properties as the ones supplied
with the appliance.
2
Take your pressure regulator with you when buying a gas
cylinder. Not all pressure regulators fit all cylinders.
6.2 Safety instructions
• Never connect the cylinder directly to the appliance. Always
mount a pressure regulator on the cylinder first.
• Never modify pre-assembled or sealed parts of the cylinder,
the hose or the pressure regulator.
• Keep the hose as short as possible (1,5 m maximum) to
prevent it from dragging on the ground.
• While connecting the cylinder, hose and pressure regulator:
• Never distort the hose.
• Always keep the cylinder in an upright position.
• Never open the gas supply.
• Check for leaks each time you make changes to the gas
connection. See “7 Checking for gas leaks”.
