SAFETY NOTICES
DANGER – Risks of Injury
■
The device is not intended to be used by children and people
with reduced physical, sensory or mental abilities or a lack of
experience and/or knowledge.
■
Children must not play with the device. Ensure that children
do not have unsupervised access to the device, even when it is
switched off. Incorrect use can be dangerous.
■
During operation some parts of the device will get very hot,
particularly close to the burner. Never leave the device unsuper-
vised when it is in operation or still hot. In particular, make sure
that no children or persons who are not capable of correctly
recognising or reacting to possible dangers or animals come
near the hot device.
■
Do not come into contact with heated parts while or after using
the device! Only ever touch the control knob or ignition button
while the device is in operation or immediately after it has been
switched off. Wait until the device has cooled down before it is
transported, cleaned or stored away.
■
Do not move the device during operation! Before the device is
moved, the valve of the gas cylinder or the pressure regulator
must be closed.
DANGER – Risk of Suffocation, Fire and
Explosion
L
Gas is extremely flammable and burns explosively. Serious
personal injury or damage to property may occur if escap-
ing gas ignites in an uncontrolled fashion.
Liquefied petroleum gas is heavier than oxygen. It therefore
settles at the bottom and displaces the oxygen there. If
a corresponding concentration of gas forms (e.g. if a gas
cylinder is damaged), this may result in suffocation owing
to a lack of oxygen.
■
Never connect the device to the gas network (municipal gas
network)! The valves and nozzles are only designed for liquid
gas cylinders.
■
Using this device indoors is
DANGEROUS and PROHIBITED.
Only use the device outdoors
or in well-ventilated spaces
in which at least 25% of the
surrounding wall area is open.
The surrounding wall area is
the total of all wall surfaces.
■
Do not hang clothing or other combustible materials on the de-
vice. The device must be kept away from combustible materials
during operation. Minimum distance from combustible mate-
rials: 2 m above and 1 m at the sides. Minimum distance from
low-flammability materials, e.g. building walls: 0.25 m.
■
Choose the location for setting up the device so that it cannot
topple over even in strong wind.
■
Always place the device on a horizontal and stable surface.
■
Do not use the device if there are highly flammable or explosive
substances in the air or surrounding space. Do not store fuel or
other flammable vapours or liquids near this device and do not
use such substances with this device. Do not spray any sprays
near the device.
■
Never use the device without a pressure regulator (see the “Re-
quirements Placed on the Gas-Carrying Components” chapter –
“Pressure Regulator”)!
■
Make sure that the pressure regulator is properly locked and in
working order.
■
Components which have been sealed by the manufacturer or its
agent must not be manipulated.
■
When you connect the gas cylinder, make sure that the sur-
rounding area within a radius of 5 m is clear of any ignition
sources.
In particular: Do not ignite any naked flames, do not smoke and
do not switch on any electrical consumers (devices, lamps, bells
etc.) (possible spark discharge).
■
Each time the gas cylinder is connected a leak test must be
performed on all gas-carrying components (see the “Leak Test”
chapter). The device must not be used if there is a gas leak.
■
Do not cover any openings of the device and make sure that
they are not blocked before the device is put into operation.
For example, hoses or fittings which are blocked by insects may
impede the flow of gas, which may reduce performance or even
result in a dangerous flashback. The way the device is cleaned is
described in the “Cleaning and Maintenance” chapter.
■
Never remove the control knob, the gas cylinder or one of the
gas-carrying components while the device is operating.
■
If you smell gas, close the gas supply on the gas cylinder and
extinguish all naked flames. Do not switch on any electrical
equipment and do not operate any (light) switches. Find out the
cause and fix the gas leak before you use the device again.
■
The gas cylinder and the gas hose must not touch any hot parts
of the device.
■
Do not cover the device while it is still hot.
■
In the event of a fire: Close all valves! Do not extinguish with
water! Smother flames with a fireproof blanket or a suitable fire
extinguisher.
■
Never leave the device unattended. If the flame goes out, reig-
nite it immediately or shut off the gas cylinder.
■
Shut off the gas cylinder immediately after use.
■
Always close the valve of the gas cylinder first before the pres-
sure regulator is disconnected.
■
Never transport the device with a gas cylinder connected to it!
The device and gas cylinder must always be transported sepa-
rately from one another.
■
Do not cover the ventilation openings of the base cabinet and
make sure that they are always clear.
■
Only use the device above ground level (i.e. do not use it in
depressions below ground level).
■
Only ever use the gas types, gas cylinders, pressure regulators
and gas hoses which are specified in these assembly and operat-
ing instructions (see the “Requirements Placed on the Gas-Car-
rying Components” chapter).
■
Do not make any modifications to the device! Any modification
to the device may be dangerous.
■
Repairs may only be carried out by the manufacturer or custom-
er service department in order to avoid any hazards. If you no-
tice any damage or there is a fault, it is essential to contact the
customer service department (see the cover of these assembly
and operating instructions). The device must not be used until it
has been repaired as this may lead to the device malfunctioning
and the risk of injury.
■
Use only original accessories from the manufacturer in order to
guarantee that there is no interference that may prevent the
device from working and to avoid possible damage or hazards.
DANGER – Hazards from Gas Cylinders
■
Note the specifications of the manufacturer or lender of
the gas cylinder!
■
The gas cylinder must be kept out of the reach of children!
■
Never use a gas cylinder that is dented or rusty.
■
Never use a gas cylinder with a damaged valve.
■
Never lay a gas cylinder on its side. Always install, transport and
store the gas cylinder (even an empty one) in an upright secure
position.
■
Never drop a gas cylinder, subject it to impacts or damage it.
