3. SAFETY INFORMATION
Hose
Ÿ
The hose must be checked for wear or damage before every use and before connecting to the gas container.
Ÿ
Do not use the appliance if it has a damaged or worn hose. Replace the hose.
Ÿ
Do not use an appliance that is leaking, damaged or which does not operate properly.
Gas Container
Ÿ
Ensure that the gas container is fitted or changed in a well-ventilated location, preferably outdoors, away from any sources of ignition
such as naked flames, pilots, electric fires and away from other people.
Ÿ
Keep gas containers away from heat and flame. Do not place on a stove or any other hot surface.
Ÿ
Gas cartridges/refillable cylinders are to be used only in the upright position so as to ensure proper fuel withdrawal. Failure to adhere to
this may cause liquid discharge from the gas container resulting in a dangerous operating condition.
Ÿ
Do not try to remove the cylinder whilst the unit is in operation.
Ÿ
The gas cylinder must be disconnected from the appliance after use or when in storage.
Ÿ
Not for use with a remote gas supply.
Assembly and use
Ÿ
Use only on a firm level surface.
Ÿ
Do not move the appliance whilst the unit is in operation.
Ÿ
Do not cover up or change the Burner Pan (F) air holes on the Base Plate, as it will influence the flow of air to the Stem Air Holes
located inside the Tripod Housing (J). This, in turn, will affect the performance of the product and may lead to an unstable flame
Ÿ
Ensure the appliance is used away from flammable materials. Minimum safe distances are:
Above the appliance 1.2m. At the rear and sides 600mm. (See Fig.1)
Ÿ
Caution:
Accessible parts may become very hot, the use of protective gloves is recommended.
Ÿ
Keep young children away from the appliance.
Ÿ
Use Outdoors Only
Light back
Ÿ
In the event of light back (where the flame burns back and ignites inside the burner or venturi housing), immediately turn off the gas
supply by firstly closing the control valve on the gas container and then the appliance valve (M). After the flame is extinguished, remove
the regulator and check the condition of the seal; replace the seal if in doubt. Re-light the appliance as described in Section 9 below.
Should the flame persistently light back, return the product to your authorised CADAC repair agent.
Leaks
Ÿ
If there is a leak on your appliance (smell of gas), take it outside immediately into a well-ventilated flame-free location where the leak may
be detected and stopped. If you wish to check for leaks on your appliance, do it outside. Do not try to detect leaks using a flame; use
soapy water.
Ÿ
The correct way is to smear the joints with soapy water. If a bubble or bubbles form then there is a gas leak. Immediately turn off the gas
supply firstly by closing the control valve on the gas container and then the appliance valve. Check that all the connections are properly
fitted. Re-check with soapy water.
Ÿ
If a gas leak persists, return the product to your CADAC dealer for inspection / repair.
