Make sure your grill is assembled properly. Detailed assembly instructions are packed with each grill giving specific assembly procedures for each model. Follow these instructi- ons carefully to ensure the correct and safe assembly of the grill. Caution: Although we take every effort to ensure that the assembly process is as easy as possible, it is inherent with fabricated steel parts that corners and edged can cause cuts if improperly handled during assembly procedures. Be careful while handling any parts during assembly. It is strongly recommended that you protect hands with a pair of work gloves.

You will need LPG gas bottle and proper regulators under the gas pressure to operate this gas grill. The regulators should be comply with EN12864 with current version and national regulation. See point Safety Instruction for further instructions. Energy saving tips: a) Reduce the opening time of the lid. b) Turn the grill off as soon as cooking is completed. c) Preheat the gas grill for 10 to 15 minutes only. (Except for the first use) d) Do not preheat longer then recommended. e) Do not use a higher setting than required. f) Connect the hose and regulator to the gas container at the left side of the gas grill Keeping in mind that the gas container must be kept away from heat and in a safe posi- tion .The hose dimension is 8-10mm diameter. The length of hose recommended which shall not exceed 1.5m.

After purchasing your gas cylinder you will then be ready to set it up with your gas grill. a) When changing the gas cylinder which shall be carried out away from any source of ignition. Position the gas cylinder at left side of your gas grill, should not be placed inside BBQ, keeping in mind that the bottle must be kept away from heat and in a safe position. b) When ready to use your gas grill insert the regulator into the gas bottle valve and tigh ten firmly.

Warning: Before attempting to light your gas grill you must refer to your lighting instruc-

tions and warning / safety points. Check the hose before each use, searching for cracking, cuts or any abrasions. If the hose is found to be faulty in any way do not attempt to use your gas grill. When changing your gas bottle ensures that there are no sources of ignition close by i.e. fires, cigarettes, naked flames etc. Make sure that the appliance is switched off. Ensure that the hose is not subjected to twisting which will affect the gas flow when installing your gas grill. Also the hose must not have undue tension and must not touch any part of the gas grill which may be hot. Please choose flexible hose whose heatproof higher than 80

Flexible tube should be changed every 2 years; It’s necessary to change the flexible tube when the national conditions require it. How to change your cylinder Note: Turn off the switch of cylinder (No spanner is required) The height of the gas cylinder is below the 80cm, and the width is within 35cm How to connect a gas bottle a) Turn the orange cap so that the arrow is pointing to the gap in the shroud. b) Remove the orange safety cap by pulling the lanyard out, then out. Do not use tools. Leave the cap hanging. c) Check that the black sealing washer is fitted inside the cylinder valve. Connect the regulator to the valve. d) Turn the switch clockwise on gas bottle-then turn on the gas grill as instructed.

Warning: Always test gas line for leaks at connector with soap water finishing all connec-

tions. How to disconnect a gas bottle a) Except for twin-cylinder installations with a changeover valve, turn off the gas tap if fit ted to the appliance. Wait until the burner and pilot light have gone out. For installati ons with a changeover valve, it is only necessary to switch off the empty cylinder. b) Replace the orange safety cap onto the empty cylinder.

4. Lighting instructions

Caution: The lid must be open when lighting the burner! Do not stand with your face directly over the gas grill when lighting it. Your gas grill will have following method of ignition. Pilot Gas Control Ignition (Main burner or main burner with side burner): With all gas controls on the Gas grill in the “OFF” position“ OFF”, turn the gas cylin- der valve to the on position at the regulator. To create a spark you must press the con- trol knob (A) and hold in this position for 3-5 seconds to allow gas flow and then turn anticlockwise to” HIGH” (B). It can spark to the burner lighting tube (C). You will hear a “snap” from the igniter and you will also see a orange flame coming from the burner lighting tube at the left side of the burner (D). Continue to hold the burner control knob in for two seconds after the “snap”, this will allow gas to flow completely down the burner tube (E) and insure ignition. When the burner is alight, adjacent burners will cross light when their controls are turned to “HIGH” At “High” setting the burner flame should be approximately 12-20mm long with a mini- mum of orange flame. Turn the gas control fully anticlockwise for minimum setting. Should you have any difficulty lighting your gas grill following the above steps, contact your dealer for advice. If the automatic ignition can’t be used, please remove the cooking grill and heat diffuser(hotplate ), and turn the valve anticlockwise to 90°, to light with BBQ lighter in the distance of 5mm to the burner fire hole. Replace the cooking grill and heat diffuser (hot- plate), please wear the fireproof and heat resisting gloves.

Warning: If the burner still does not light ,turn the burner control knob to” OFF” and wait

5 minutes to let the gas clear before lighting again.

STORAGE Your gas bottle must be stored outdoors in a well ventilated area and must be disconnected from your gas grill when not being used. Ensure that you are outdoors and away from any sources of ignition before attempting to disconnect your gas bottle from your gas grill. When you are using your gas grill after a period of storage, please ensure to check for gas leaks and check for any obstructions in the burner etc. before using. Also follow the cleaning instructions to ensure gas grill is safe. If gas grill is stored outdoors ensure to check that all areas under the front panel are free from any obstructions (insects etc.) This area must be kept free as this may affect the flow of combustion or ven- tilation air.
