Barbecook NASSAU INOX III Assembly Instructions Manual - page 16

The following must be checked:

•  The tank valve, including the threads into the tank (drawing C).

• Regulator 

fi ttings and tank connections (drawing C).

•  All tank welds (drawing B).

•  All hose connections (drawing D).

1.  With a newly fi lled and tested propane tank attached to the barbecue and all the barbecue controls 

turned OFF, slowly open the cylinder valve one full turn.

2.  Using a brush and soap, soak all the connections and components listed above and shown in draw-

ings B, C, D.

3.  Look carefully for bubbles forming, which is an indication of leaking gas.

4.  Tighten the connections in the areas where the bubbles were visible until re-testing shows no indica-

tion of any leaks (shut off the cylinder while correcting any leaks).

5.  Close the cylinder valve and ensure that all control valves are closed.

6.  Do not use the barbecue if there are any leaks that cannot be stopped. Close the gas cylinder valve, 

remove the gas cylinder and seek assistance from a qualifi ed gas appliance service mechanic or gas 

dealer.

Do not use your barbecue until you have carefully read and fully understand all the information in this manual. 

Please ensure that:

•  Your barbecue is properly assembled.

•  There are no leaks in the system (see “Leak Test”).

•  The burner is properly assembled, with the Venturi tubes seated over the valve outlets (drawing E), and that 

there is nothing blocking the Venturi tubes (drawing F).

•  All the power cords and / or gas supply hoses will not touch or be near the surfaces that will get hot.

•  The barbecue is in a safe location (see installation).

Ensure that the valve outlets (orifi ces) are inserted approximately 6mm (1/4½’) deep into the Venturi tubes, and 

that the valve outlets and Venturi tubes are more or less parallel to the bottom of the lower body.

WARNING

Natural Hazards – insects and spiders

During shipment or storage, small insects such as spiders could 

fi nd their way into the Venturi tubes and nest or make webs. This 

could block the fl ow of gas through the Venturi tube, causing a 

smoky, yellowish fl ame, or prevent a burner from lighting. It could 

even cause the gas to burn outside the Venturi tube, which could 

seriously damage your barbecue. If these occur, turn off the gas 

fl ow and wait for the barbecue to cool down. When the barbecue 

has cooled down, remove the burner and clean out the Venturi 

tubes with a brush or pipe cleaner. Replace the burner and ensure that the Venturi tubes are seated over the 

orifi ces located on the gas valves. The Venturi tubes should be cleaned periodically, especially at the start of the 

season.

Note: Damage resulting from blocked Venturi tubes is not covered by the warranty, and is regarded as inad-

equate maintenance.
