Inserting batteries
You need to insert batteries into the device for automatic burner
activation. One 1.5 V battery size AA (not included!) is used. The
battery compartment is between the regulators 1 and 2. Remove
the battery compartment lid and insert a 1.5 V battery of the type
LR6/R6/AA. Pay attention to the correct polarity (+/-). The plus of
the battery must point outward. Close the battery compartment
by screwing down the battery compartment lid. The battery
compartment lid simultaneously serves as a push button of the
piezo-igniter. It is made operational by inserting the battery.
Connecting the Gas Bottle
regulator and Hose
These accessory parts are supplied with the gas BBQ.
Replacements are available at your BBQ distributor or an
authorised LPG gas supplier. Use only regulators and hoses
that are certified for LP gas with the pressure values mentioned.
The lifespan of the regulator is approximately 2 years. It is
recommended that the regulator be exchanged within 2 years
from the production date.
The use of an incorrect or defective regulator and gas hose is
dangerous. Before each use of the gas BBQ, check that the
correct parts are being used.
The gas hose used must conform to the regulations and provisions
of the country in which the BBQ is being used. The length of the
gas hose must not exceed 1.5 metres. Worn or damaged hoses
must be exchanged immediately.
The hose must be connected
without twists or bends.
Ensure that the gas hose is not bent
or constricted and that it does not come into contact with the gas
BBQ, with the exception of the hose connection.
Storing the BBQ
The gas BBQ must only be stored indoors, once the gas bottle
has been disconnected. If the BBQ is not being used for an
extended period of time, it should be covered with a protective
hood and stored in a dry and dust-free environment.
The Gas Bottle
A gas bottle is not supplied with this BBQ. The gas bottle must be
provided by the end user. Do not drop your gas bottle or handle
it roughly or inappropriately.
When the BBQ is not being used, the gas bottle must be
separated from the BBQ. Fit the gas bottle with its protective cap
once it has been disconnected from the BBQ. The gas bottle
must be stored separate from the BBQ.
The storage of gas bottles is not permitted in underground
spaces, in stair wells, passageways and thoroughfares of
buildings, or in their immediate vicinity. The valves must be fitted
with valve protection caps and lock nuts.
Gas bottles - including empty ones - must be stored upright.
Gas bottles must be stored outdoors in an upright position and
out of reach of children. The gas bottle must not be stored in
areas in which the temperature exceeds 50ºC. Do not store the
gas bottle nears flames or other flammable sources.
Do not
smoke in the vicinity of gas bottles!
Connection to the BBQ
Place the gas bottle next to or behind the BBQ on the floor.
Do not in any case place the gas bottle on the support under the
grill.
Before the gas bottle is connected to the BBQ, you must ensure
that there is no dirt in the heads of the gas bottle, the regulator,
or the burner. Spiders and insects can get in there and thus block
the burner or the venturi tube at the opening. A blocked burner
can cause a fire underneath the BBQ. Clean blocked burner
openings using a sturdy pipe cleaner.
Mounting the gas hose
• Depending on national regulations, there are two ways to
connect the gas hose to the grill. First take the protective cap
off the gas connection if present.
Method 1:
• Firmly screw one end of the gas hose onto the gas connection
(left-hand threading). Do not use an extra gasket!
• Tighten the gas hose union nut securely using a size 17
spanner; at the same time hold the gas connection in place
with pliers or a second size 17 spanner.
Method 2:
• Run a hose clamp of the right size a few centimetres over
the loose end of the gas hose. Then slide this end onto the
gas connection (wet the gas connection somewhat to facilitate
sliding onto the hose). Fix the connection with the hose clamp.
• Connect the other end of the gas hose with the pressure
regulator included.
Separate instruction manuals are included with the gas hose
and the pressure regulator. Follow these instructions very
closely when you connect the pressure regulator to the gas hose
and gas container (the figures may differ for the hose, pressure
regulator and gas container depending on the respective
national standards).
Lay the hose so that it is not kinked or twisted.
Warning!
Prior to use test all connections for gas leaks.
Always perform the test using soapy water. Never use an open
flame to detect leaks.
Checking for Gas leaks
• Mix one part dishwashing liquid with 3 parts water. For testing,
approx. 50 ml of soapy water is needed.
• Ensure that all temperature regulators are set to
(off).
• Connect the regulator with the gas bottle and turn on the
burner using the left temperature regulator. Ensure that the
connections are securely made.
• Turn on the gas intake.
• Apply the soapy water to the hose and to all connections. If
bubbles appear, a leak is present.
• Fix the leak and then start the test again.
• Switch off the gas once the test has been concluded.
• If a leak is found and it cannot be repaired, do not attempt to
repair the leak further. In this case, contact a professional.
• Do not use the BBQ until the leak has been properly repaired.
