Danger: Gas is highly flammable
Liquid gas is highly flammable and explosive.
Possible consequences:
• Serious injury to persons or damage to proper-
ty if escaping or accumulated gas ignites in an
uncontrolled manner.
Precautions:
• Exclusively use the barbecue outdoors and
ensure that the area is well-ventilated.
• Protect the gas cylinder and the gas hose from
direct sunlight and other sources of heat (max.
50°C). Take particular care to ensure that the
gas hose does not touch any part of the hot
barbecue.
• Close the valve of the gas cylinder immediately
after finishing to use the barbecue.
• When connecting the gas cylinder, make sure
that there are no sources of ignition within a
5 m radius.
Important note: to avoid the risk of spark-over,
do not to light naked flames, do not smoke
and do not actuate the switches of electric
devices (appliances, lights, door bells, etc.).
• Before each use, make sure that all gas con-
nections are sealed and intact.
If necessary, replace the gas hose if required to
do so to comply with local legislation.
The barbecue must not be used if the connec-
tions for the gas supply are porous or defec-
tive. This also applies, for example, to hoses or
fittings that are blocked with insects, as this
can result in a dangerous flashback.
• When igniting the gas flame do not bend over
the barbecue, as deflagration can occur if gas
has accumulated in the fire bowl.
For the same reason,
never re-ignite immedia-
tely if the flame goes out, instead:
– Turn the flame regulators (4 x B and C) to
"Off" to interrupt the supply of gas.
– Wait for 3 minutes to ensure that any accu-
mulated gas has dissipated.
– Then re-ignite the burners (see chapter
"Operation").
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 concentration of gas is allowed to rise to a
certain extent.
Precautions:
• Exclusively 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 of the gas cylinder immediately
after finishing to use the barbecue.
• If the barbecue is not going to be 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!
