1. NEVER store an extra gas cylinder underneath or close to the barbecue
or in confined spaces.
2. NEVER fill the gas cylinder over 80%. Overfilling a gas cylinder is
dangerous, because excess gas can leak out of the safety valve. Gas
can escape from the safety valve causing a fire.
3. The connection openings of the gas cylinder must be provided with
protective covers.
4. In case you discover a gas leak in the extra gas cylinder, immediately
keep your distance and call the fire department.
VERY IMPORTANT: DISCONNECT THE GAS CYLINDER WHEN
THE BARBECUE IS NOT IN USE.
DISCONNECTING THE GAS CYLINDER:
• Turn off all knobs.
• Completely close the gas tap of the gas cylinder (turn clockwise until
the knob stops).
• Remove the pressure regulator from the gas tap by turning the quick-
connect nut counterclockwise.
• Replace the protective cover on the gas tap of the gas cylinder.
LEAK TEST
GENERAL
All gas connections of the barbecue are tested for leaks in the factory prior
to shipment. Nevertheless, when mounting the device it must be checked
entirely for gas leaks, because of possible damages during transportation
or due to exposure to extreme pressure. Regularly check the device for
leakage, or check whether you can smell any gas.

!!!DANGER!!!
BEFORE CHECKING:
• Make sure to remove all packing materials from the barbecue, including
the straps keeping the burner in its place.
• Do not smoke while checking for leakage.
• Never check for leakage with open fire.
• Prepare a solution of water and soap of one part detergent and one
part water. Use a spray can, brush or cloth to apply the solution to the
connections. Make sure the gas cylinder is full before the first leak test.
• Checking for leaks must be performed outdoors on a well-ventilated
spot, away from ignition sources such as gas or electrical devices and
combustible materials.
• Keep the barbecue away from open fire and/or sparks during the test.
CHECKING:
• Make sure all control knobs are set to position "OFF".
• Make sure the pressure regulator is properly connected to the gas cylinder.
• Completely open the gas tap of the gas cylinder by turning the knob
counter-clockwise. In case you hear a hissing sound, IMMEDIATELY turn
off the gas; this indicates a serious leak in the connection. Contact your
gas supplier or fire department.
• Check each connection of the gas cylinder all the way through to the
taps part (the hose leading to the burner) by spraying or brushing the
soap solution on the connections.
• There is a leak when soap bubbles appear. IMMEDIATELY close the gas
tap of the gas cylinder and carefully check all connections. Open the gas
tap again and perform a new check.
• Always close the gas tap of the gas cylinder after the leak test by turning
the knob clockwise.
• Only use the parts recommended by the manufacturer for this
barbeque. The warranty will become void when using other parts. Do
not use the barbeque until all connections are inspected and you are
certain these show no signs of leakage.
