GAS CYLINDER
• The gas cylinder must not be dropped or handled carelessly.
• If the gas is not going to be used, the gas cylinder must be disconnected and the safety
cap put on.
• The gas cylinder must never be placed in locations where it is exposed to temperatures
over 50°C.
• You should therefore not put the gas cylinder directly under the barbecue. The gas cylin-
der must not be placed or stored in locations where there is a risk of fire or sparks, for
example. Do not smoke in the immediate vicinity of the gas cylinder.
• It is prohibited to make your own modifications to the gas cylinder. This can be fatal.
CONNECTING THE GAS CYLINDER TO THE BARBECUE
• Make sure that gas cylinder’s valve is turned off.
• Connect the regulator’s wing nut to the thread on the gas cylinder’s valve. Tighten the
wing nut by hand; do not use a tool as this could damage the valve’s seal.
• Connect the hose to the propane burner’s nipple. If the hose is difficult to put on, you can
try putting a little soap on the hose. The hose must be connected to the burner’s nipple
using a hose clamp. Check that the hose is not clogged, knotted or lying against any part
of the barbecue other than the nipple.
• Check for leaks in the gas cylinder, regulator, hose and barbecue before starting to
barbecue. See the section CHECKING FOR LEAKS.
CHECKING FOR LEAKS
• Mix 50% soap with 50% water. Check that the gas valve on the gas cylinder is closed and
that the knob on the grill is in the off position.
• Apply soap solution onto the gas cylinder’s valve, regulator, hose and connector to the
barbecue.
• Open the gas valve on the gas cylinder. If there are small bubbles in any of the parts
mentioned above, there is a leak.
• Close the gas valve and tighten the hose connectors. Perform the test again. If there is
still a leak, contact your Rusta store.
LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
• Before using the propane burner and connecting it to the gas cylinder, make sure you
turn the knob off and that no open fire, smoking, people or flammable material is nearby.
• Place the propane burner in a location that is protected from strong wind, always horizon-
tally, on a stable base. Make sure that you do not place the propane burner close to a wall.
• Check to make sure the holes in the burner rings are open before using the propane burner.
LIGHTING
• Connect the regulator to the gas cylinder. Open the gas cylinder’s valve to release the
liquefied petroleum gas.
• First, fully open/turn the knob for the internal burner ring to HI, light the burner with
a gas lighter and adjust the flame to the height you want using the knob.
