2. Do not use this barbecue before performing a leak test.
3. If you have found a gas leak, turn off the gas cylinder immediately. Dismount the gas pressure regulator from the gas cylinder. Place the gas cylinder in a cool, well ventilated area. Contact your dealer or gas supplier for further assistance.
4. If you can't stop the gas leak contact the fire department or supplier of the gas cylinder.

DISCONNECTING 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.

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.

SAFETY TIPS:

• Always check for leakage every time you replace the gas cylinder.
• Always check all connections for leakage before each use.
• Use long barbecue tools to prevent burns.
• In case grease or hot objects drop from the barbecue on the gas tap, pressure regulator, hose or any other part that contains gas, immediately shut off the gas supply.
• Do not remove the drip tray before the barbecue has not sufficiently cooled down.
• Close all control knobs and the gas tap of the gas cylinder when not using the barbecue
• Push the barbecue forward when moving, never pull it.
• A disconnected gas cylinder being stored or moved must be equipped with a protective cover. Do not store a gas cylinder in confined spaces such as a carport, covered patio, veranda, garage or other structures.
• Never leave a gas cylinder behind in a vehicle or boat that can get overheated by the sun.
• Do not store the gas cylinder in or near a place where children play.

BARBECUE IGNITION INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: IMPORTANT! BEFORE IGNITING

Check the gas supply hose before turning the gas "ON". In case of visible damage or rips, the hose must be replaced before use. The new gas supply hose must be according national regulations.

VERY IMPORTANT: ALWAYS INSPECT THE HOSE BEFORE EACH USE OF THIS BARBECUE.

IGNITING THE MAIN BURNERS OF THE BARBECUE:

1. Read all instructions before igniting the burners.
2. Turn all knobs to "OFF" and open the gas tap of the gas cylinder. Keep your face and body as far as possible from the barbecue when igniting it.
3. Press and turn the control knobs slowly to the ignition. The built-in igniter clicks and simultaneously ignites the pilot flame and burner. If the burner does not ignite within 5 seconds, IMMEDIATELY turn the control knob to "OFF", wait for 5 minutes until all gas has disappeared and repeat the ignition procedure.

• Check whether the characteristics of the flame are in order. Each burner is preset prior to shipment, but due to the many variations in local gas supplies, small adjustments might be required.
• The flames of the burners must be blue and stable, without yellow tips, noise or sudden increases.
• A yellow flame indicates insufficient presence of air. A noisy flame with sudden increases from the burner means there is too much air present.
  NOTE: small yellow tips are ok.

USING THE BARBECUE

Grilling requires a high temperature for the meat to nicely burn and brown. Most dishes are constantly grilled on position, never, when grilling large pieces of meat or chicken, it might be necessary to lower the temperature after the first browning. This ensures the food to get well done, without burning the outside. For food requiring long grill times or containing sugar marinade you might have to lower the temperature nearing the end of the grilling time.

• Make sure the barbecue is checked for leaks and is properly placed.
• Remove all packing materials.
• Ignite the burners according to the instructions in this user manual.
• Turn the control knob to and preheat the barbecue for 15 minutes.
• Put the food on the grill and grill it until it's properly prepared.

TEMPERATURE SETTING

The control knobs can be set to any position between and

NOTE: The hot grill will brown the outside of the meat, keeping the juices inside. The longer the barbecue is preheated, the quicker the meat will brown.
