Connecting the gas cylinder
Danger "Ignition of escaping gas"
Liquid gas is highly flammable and explosive.
Possible consequences:
• Severe injury or damage to propety canoccur if the gas ignites in an uncontrolled envi-
ronment.
Safety measures:
• When connecting the gas cylinder ensure that there are no sources of ignition within a
5 m radius.
• Take special care not to light any naked flames, do not smoke or switch on electric appli-
ances (devices, lights, door bells), etc. (sparkover possible).
• If necessary, replace the hose in order to comply with the corresponding national re-
quirements.
1. Select a suitable place to set up the barbecue. Make sure that ...
– there are not, and will not be, any flammable materials or substances nearby. Minimum distance to flammable
materials or substances: 2 m above and 1 m to the side; distance to highly flammable materials or substances:
min 0.25 m.
– Note: The smoke escapes from the grill hood positioned at the rear of the barbecue. It can therefore result in fouling
objects that are located close to the rear of the barbecue.
– the barbecue is positioned firmly on a sufficiently large surface area. It must not be moved during operation. Put
on both fixing brakes on the right castor!
– all flame regulators (A) are set to "OFF".

2. Open the doors, raise the gas cylinder retaining clip on the rear
panel and insert the gas cylinder upright into the recess in the
base of the cart. Place the gas cylinder retaining clip over the
gas cylinder. Never lay the gas cylinder on its side. The
gas hose must not be kinked or under tension.
3. Check to make sure that the seal of the cylinder valve thread
(G2) is present and intact. Do not use any additional seals.
4. Connect the coupling nut (G3) of the pressure regulator to the cylinder valve thread (G2) and tighten the coupling nut
(G3) by turning it anti-clockwise by hand. Do not use any tools for this as they can cause damage to the cylinder valve
seal, which will result in impairing the tightness of the connection and a loss of warranty.
5. Check that the pressure reducer (G4) and the gas hose (G7) are securely connected. To do this turn the coupling nut (G6)
anti-clockwise using a 17mm flat spanne Check the connection between the gas hose (G7) and the adjusting element
(underneath the front panel) in the same way.
6. Open the cylinder valve (turn G1 anti-clockwise) and use a standard leak detector to make sure that all of the connec-
tions are tight.
– Please observe the instructions for the leak detector!
– Never check for leaks using a naked flame. Listening for leaks is not a reliable method of detection.
– If a leak is detected, close the cylinder valve immediately (turn G1 clockwise) and tighten the loose connection or
get the leaking part replaced by a specialist. Repeat the leak test!
7. If you do not wish to barbecue immediately, close the cylinder valve (turn G1 clockwise).
