Connecting the Gas Bottle
This BBQ is suited only for low-pressure butane/propane gas
and must be equipped with a suitable low-pressure regula-
tor and a flexible hose. This device is designed to operate a
50 mBar regulator with butane / propane gas. Use a suitable
regulator that is certified according to EN 16129: 2013-08. The
gas hose must be connected with suitable hose clamps. This
BBQ is intended to operate a 28-30 mBar regulator with butane/
propane gas. Use a suitable regulator that is certified according
to BSEN 12864:2001. Inquire about suitable regulators for gas
bottles at your LPG gas supplier. For the operation of this BBQ,
you require a commercially available 5 kg bottle of propane/
butane gas.
Please note: The gas bottle and gas hose have a left-hand
thread!
Regulator and Hose
These accessory parts are supplied with the gas BBQ. Replace-
ments 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 cor-
rect parts are being used.
The gas hose used must conform to the regulations and provi-
sions 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 removed. 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 han-
dle it roughly or inappropriately.
When the BBQ is not being used, the gas bottle must be sepa-
rated 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 spac-
es, 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 are-
as 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 in the bottle holder in the base plate.
Caution!
The gas bottle must be placed in the bottle holder.
Never place it on the other side of the base plate. Do not keep
a second gas cylinder in the cupboard. To operate the gas grill,
the gas bottle must be placed in the base cabinet in the bottle
holder in the floor shelf.
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.
Warning!
Attach one hand of the gas hose to the thread of the
pressure regulator and tighten by hand; then, using a 17-mm jaw
spanner, tighten it firmly.
Attention left-hand thread! Do not use any additional seal!
Attach the other end of the gas hose to the thread of the valve
connection on the BBQ, tightening by hand. Then tighten it firm-
ly with the help of a 17-mm jaw spanner.
Attention left-hand thread! Do not use any additional seal!
Connect the pressure regulator to the gas bottle valve, tighten-
ing it by hand.
Follow the instructions included with the regulator.
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 test-
ing, 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,
please
contact
the
customer service of
your contract partner
.
• Do not use the BBQ until the leak has been properly repaired
