Danger "Gas displaces oxygen"
Liquid gas is heavier than oxygen. Therefore it settles on the ground and displaces the oxygen
at that level.
Possible consequences:
• Suffocation resulting from a lack of oxygen if the gas concentration is allowed to rise
sufficiently.
Safety measures:
• Only use the barbecue outdoors in a well ventilated area and above ground (i.e. not in
areas that are below ground level).
• Close the valve on the gas cylinder after each use.
• Never leave the barbecue unattended. If the flame extinguishes, relight immediately or
cut off the supply from the gas cylinder.
• Before each use, make sure that all gas connections are sealed and intact.
If necessary, replace the hose in order to comply with the corresponding national requi-
rements.
The barbecue must not be used if the connections for the gas supply are porous or faulty.
• If the barbecue is not being used for a prolonged period, cut off the supply from the gas
cylinder and store properly:
– Fit the gas cylinder valve with a cap nut and safety cap.
– Do not store the gas cylinder in rooms below ground level, in or near stairways,
hallways or passages and thoroughfares between buildings.
– Always store gas cylinders upright, even if they are empty.
