Use of your barbecue
4.1 General Information
Even though all gas connections on the barbecue are tested for leakages before transport, a
complete test must be carried out at the assembly site. During transport or assembly, parts of
the barbecue may have been moved. It is also possible that the gas pressure on the equipment
is too high. Regularly inspect the entire system for leaks and check the system immediately in
the event that you smell gas.
4.2 Gas leak test
Always carry out a gas leak test before use of the barbecue and when the barbecue has not
been used for some time.
Extinguish any open fires (DO NOT SMOKE when testing for leaks).
•
Never carry out this gas leak test near open flames.
•
Make a soapy solution made up from equal parts of water and liquid soap or gentle
•
washing-up liquid
•
Follow the steps below:
1. Turn the control knobs of the burners to off.
2. Remove the battery from the electronic ignition.
3. Open the gas bottle.
4. Apply the soapy solution to all connections of the gas supply. If no soap bubbles
are formed, there is no gas leak. If soap bubbles start to form on a connection,
this indicates a leak. In the event that you detect a leak, turn the gas supply off
immediately, tighten the leaking connections firmly, open the gas bottle again and
repeat steps 1 through to 4.
5. Turn the gas supply off.
6. Turn the control knobs of the burners on for 10 seconds to let the pressure escape
from the hose and then turn the control knobs to off again.
7. Remove the soapy solution from the connections of the equipment with cold water
and rub dry with a cloth. Check all gas supply connections before every use and do
the same when the gas bottle is being connected to the gas pressure regulator.
It is recommended that you check the gas hose for leaks every year, even if the gas bottle has
never been disconnected from the equipment.
Note: Ensure that you test all loose connections (including the side burner) and, if
•
required, tighten them again when you are testing the equipment for leaks. Even a small
leak in the system can result in a dangerous situation.
Note: These days, most gas bottles are fitted with a mechanism that detects leaks inside
•
the container. When the gas is being released too quickly, this mechanism cuts off the
gas supply. A leak can severely restrict the gas supply which will make it difficult to light
the barbecue.
