4. Fitting and Changing the Gas Cylinder
• Before connecting the appliance to a gas cylinder, ensure that the rubber seal on the regulator
is in position and in good condition.
• Carry out this check each time you fit the appliance to a gas cylinder.
• Blow out any dust from the cylinder opening to prevent possible blockage of the jet.
• Ensure that the appliance valves are in the off position by turning the knobs fully clockwise to
their stop.
• Ensure that the gas cylinder is fitted or changed in a well-ventilated location, preferably
outdoors, away from any source of ignition, such as naked flames and away from other
people.
• Make sure that the gas cylinder is kept upright at all times. Hand tighten the regulator onto the
cylinder until it is fully engaged.
• If there is a leak on your appliance (smell of gas), extinguish all sources of ignition in the
vicinity of the appliance. If you wish to check for leaks on your appliance, use soapy water which is applied to the suspected area. A
formation of bubbles will indicate a gas leak. Check that all the connections are securely fitted and re-check with soapy water. If you
cannot rectify the gas leak, do not use the appliance. Contact your local CADAC stockist for assistance.
• When changing a gas cylinder, first close the cylinder valve and then the appliance valve, making sure the flame is extinguished and
unscrew the regulator. Re-fit the regulator to a full cylinder following the same precautions as described above.
• After the appliance has been fully assembled, perform a gas leak test before operating the appliance.
• Make sure that the gas cylinder is kept upright at all times. Hand tighten the regulator onto the cylinder until it is fully engaged.

• When changing a gas cylinder, first close the cylinder valve and then the appliance valve, making sure the flame is extinguished and
unscrew the regulator. Re-fit the regulator to a full cylinder following the same precautions as described above.
• After the appliance has been fully assembled, perform a gas leak test before operating the appliance.
• Manual ignition: To light the burners manually, first remove the cast iron grill plate and the
deflector plate directly underneath it. Ignite a match or firelighter and position it next to the
left hand burner. Turn on the gas supply to that burner only by pushing the control valve in and
turning it in an anti-clockwise direction. This will ignite the burner. Once the burner is ignited,
carefully replace the deflector plate and cast iron grill plate. You will now be able to light the
remainder of the burners as described in ‘Cross lighting’ above.
• Use the control knobs to adjust the individual burner flame intensity to the desired level by
turning the knob anti-clockwise to decrease the flame and clockwise to increase it.
• After use, first close the valve on the gas cylinder. When the flame is extinguished, close the
burner control valves on the appliance by turning control knobs fully clockwise.
5. General Maintenance
• There are no predetermined maintenance intervals for this appliance.
• It is dangerous to use an appliance with a cracked or perished seal and/or hose. Inspect both seals and hose regularly and replace if
they are not in order before using the appliance.
• If the appliance was in use it will be hot. Allow to cool sufficiently before attempting any maintenance.
• CADAC Patio BBQ’s are fitted with specific CADAC jets to regulate the correct amount of gas. Should the hole in the jet become
blocked this may result in a small flame or no flame at all. Do not attempt to clean the Jet with a pin or other such device as this may
damage the orifice, which could make the appliance unsafe. Refer to Table 1 for jet sizes.
Replacing a blocked jet
• Ensure that the cylinder valve is closed, then disconnect the appliance from the gas cylinder.
• Remove the grill plates. Remove the flame tamers to expose the burners. Remove the retaining screws of the affected burner.
• Remove the affected burner by lifting it out of its location taking care not to damage the control valve whilst doing so. This will expose
the jet.
• Unscrew the blocked Jet with a suitable spanner and replace it with a new Jet. Do not use pliers on the Jet as they can cause damage,
making the Jet unusable or impossible to remove.
• Do not over tighten as this may damage the Jet. To re-assemble, reverse the above procedure.
