CONNECTING THE GAS CYLINDER TO THE APPLIANCE
•
This appliance is only suitable for use with propane gas, fitted with the appropriate low-pressure regulator amd a flexible hose. The hose
should be secured to the regulator and the appliance with hose clips. This barbecue is set to operate at 37 mbar for propane gas cylinder. Use a
suitable regulator certified to EN16129:2013. Please consult your LPG dealer for information regarding a suitable regulator for the gas cylinder.
REGULATOR AND HOSE
•
This item is not supplied with the barbecue, you can purchase it from your equipment retailer or an authorised LPG gas stockist. Use only
regulators and hose approved for LP gas at the above pressures. The life expectancy of the regulator is estimated as 2 years. It is recommended
that the regulator is changed within 2 years from the date of manufacture.
•
The use of a wrong regulator or hose is dangerous, always check that you have the correct item before operating the barbecue.
•
The hose used must conform to the relevant standards for the country of use. The length of the hose must be 1.5 metres (maximum). Worn or
damaged hoses must be replaced. Ensure that the hose is not obstructed, kinked or in contact with any part of the barbecue other than at its
connection.
STORAGE OF APPLIANCE
•
Storage of appliance indoors is only recomended if the cylinder is disconnected and removed from the appliance. When the appliance is not in
use it should be stored in its original packaging a dry and dust free environment.
GAS CYLINDER
•
The gas cylinder should not be dropped or handled roughly. If the appliance is not in use, the cylinder should be disconnected. Replace the
protective cap on the cylinder after disconnecting the cylinder from the appliance.
•
Cylinders must be stored outdoors in an upright position and out of the reach of children. The cylinder must never be stored where
temperatures can reach over 50o C. Should the temperature exceed 50 o C it should be cooled with a fire blanket.
