Gas Cylinder; To Check For Leaks - FERVERD GQ01023 Manual De Instrucciones

The use of the wrong regulator or hose is unsafe; always check that you have the correct items
before operating the barbecue.
The hose used must conform to the relevant standard for the country of use. The length of the hose
must be 1.5 metres (maximum). Worn or damaged hose must be replaced. Ensure that the hose is
not obstructed, kinked, or in contact with any part of the barbecue other than at its connection.
STORAGE OF APPLIANCE
Storage of an appliance indoors is only permissible if the cylinder is disconnected and removed from
the appliance. When the appliance is not to be used for a period of time it should be stored in its
original packaging and stored in a dry dust free environment.

GAS CYLINDER

The gas cylinder should not be dropped or handled roughly! If the appliance is not in use, the
cylinder must be disconnected. Replace the protective cap on the cylinder after disconnecting the
cylinder from the appliance.
Cylinders must be stored outdoors in an upright position and out of the reach of children. The
cylinder must never be stored where temperatures can reach over 50°C. Do not store the cylinder
near flames, pilot lights or other sources of ignition. DO NOT SMOKE.
This barbecue is designed for use outdoors, away from any flammable materials. It is important that
there are no overhead obstructions and that there is a minimum distance of 1 m from the side or
rear of the appliance. It is important that the ventilation openings of the appliance are not
obstructed. The barbecue must be used on a level, stable surface. The appliance should be
protected from direct draughts and shall be positioned or protected against direct penetration by
any trickling water (e.g. rain).
Parts sealed by the manufacturer or his agent must not be altered by the user. No modifications
should be made to any part of this barbecue and repairs and maintenance should only be carried out
by a CORGI registered service engineer.
CONNECTING OF APPLIANCE
Before connection, ensure that there is no debris caught in the head of the gas cylinder, regulator,
burner and burner ports. Spiders and insects can nest within and clog the burner/venturi tube at the
orifice. A clogged burner can lead to a fire beneath the appliance.
Clean burner holes with a heavy-duty pipe cleaner.
Fit the hose to the appliance using a spanner to tighten it onto the connection thread. If the hose is
replaced it must be secured to the appliance and regulator connections with hose clips. Disconnect
the regulator from the cylinder (according to the directions supplied with the regulator) when the
barbecue is not in use.
The Barbecue must be used in a well ventilated area. Do not obstruct the flow of combustion air to
the burner when the barbecue is in use. ONLY USE THIS BARBECUE OUTDOORS.
BEFORE USE CHECK FOR LEAKS Never check for leaks with a naked flame, always use a soapy water
solution

TO CHECK FOR LEAKS

Make 2-3 fluid ounces of leak detecting solution by mixing one part washing up liquid with 3 parts
water.
Ensure the control valve is "OFF". Connect the regulator to the cylinder and ON/OFF valve to the
burner, ensure the connections are secure then turn ON the gas.
Brush the soapy solution onto the hose and all joints. If bubbles appear you have a leak, which must
be rectified before use.
Retest after fixing the fault
Turn OFF the gas at the cylinder after testing.
