WARNING! Carbon monoxide hazard

Not for indoor use. The process of burning liquid gas produces carbon monoxide which accumulates inside closed areas.
Gas appliances require ventilation for efficient performance and to ensure the safety of users and others in close proximity.
This device and the connected gas appliance should only be used in a well-ventilated location in order to satisfy official ventilation standards for the supply of sufficient combustion air and to avoid the dangerous building up of unburned gases. Minimum ventilation requirement: 5m^3/h .

Do not operate this device in unventilated areas such as indoor premises, tents, awning tents, motor vehicles, motor homes, caravans or inside ships, yachts, boats and truck cabs.
Use outdoors only.

WARNING! Explosion hazard

Do not alter this device in any way. Use only as intended.
This device may only be repaired by qualified personnel. Inadequate repairs may cause serious risk.
Never place this device on, or in close proximity to, a stove or barbecue appliance. Minimum safe distance: 1 m
Do not use in environments where the ambient temperature exceeds 40^ C.
Always store, transport or use this device in a horizontal position.

WARNING! Fire hazard

Do not leave this device unattended when hot or in use.
Keep a fire extinguisher or other means suitable to extinguish a flame in the event of an emergency.
When this device is not in use, ensure to close off the gas by fully turning the control knob clockwise towards the "-" position.
Remove the gas cartridges from this device when it is not in use.

Safety during use

DANGER! Explosion hazard

Gas cartridges must be fitted or exchanged in a well-ventilated location, preferably outside and away from any sources of ignition, and away from other people.
Do not use this device or any gas barbecue appliance which is leaking, damaged or does not operate properly.
If you suspect a gas leak (detected by smell of gas), perform a gas leak test before using this device.
Extinguish any naked flames. Move the appliance to a well-ventilated flame-free location and perform a gas leak test.

This test should be performed outside in a well-ventilated area away from open flames or sources of ignition.

Never use a flame to check for gas leak. Instead, use soapy water applied to all connection points. Small bubbles will form in the presence of a gas leak.
Should a gas leak persist after all attempts to rectify a leak, contact your closest dealer for further assistance.

5 Gas leaks

Gas leaks from damaged hoses or improper connections can create hazardous conditions and must be addressed immediately. It is vital that all gas connections have been correctly fitted to prevent gas leaks.

How to carry out a gas leak test

A gas leak test must be performed with every use, and every time a cartridge is connected or exchanged.

NOTE A leaking gas cartridge can only be detected by the smell of gas. It is still necessary to perform a gas leak test at the hose connection points to confirm secure connection.

DANGER! Failure to identify and control a gas leak may result in potential injury or death.

To carry out a gas leak test, apply soapy water to all connection points.

Make sure that the control knob on the Power Pak is closed, then slowly turn the appliance control knob anti-clockwise to allow the gas to flow.
If bubbles form on any connection point, then there is a gas leak.
Immediately turn the gas off, move to a well ventilated location and disconnect the gas supply from the appliance.
Reconnect the gas supply to the appliance and re-perform the gas leak test.
Should the gas leak persist, return the product to your authorized repair agent for assistance.

6 Assembly and gas cartridge fitment

Important: Ensure that the control knob on the Power Pak and that all control knobs on the gas barbecue appliance are fully closed before use.

Connecting the device to a gas barbecue appliance

Fig. 3 on page 2

The Power Pak must be used with an approved hose assembly.

Ensure that the hose is securely attached to the gas outlet nozzle of the Power Pak. The inclusion of a quick release coupling facilitates the hose connection onto the Power Pak.
Connect the brass nut on the end of the hose to the inlet of the gas barbecue appliance you wish to operate, and use the hand-wheel to tighten the connection. Certain models may include a quick-release (QR) connector for easier connection.
Confirm all hose connections are secure before use.

Connecting the gas cartridges

The Power Pak uses CADAC Dometic 220 g or 227 g bayonet type cartridges (a maximum of 4), or any other locally approved 220 g or 227 g butane-propane mixture cartridges.

Inserting the gas cartridges

Fig. 4 on page 3

Open up the back cover of the Power Pak.
Insert the gas cartridges into the unit, starting with the 2 lower gas cartridges, and then the 2 upper gas cartridges. Keep the gas cartridge in a horizontal position with the notch (A) facing upwards and align this notch with the guide locator (B) on the inside of the Power Pak.
Once aligned, push the gas cartridge inwards and turn it clockwise to lock. Insert a maximum of 4 cartridges.
Once all cartridges are securely inserted, shut the back cover, make sure the clip is engaged. Position the safety lock so as to prevent accidental opening of the back cover.

7 Operating instructions

Fig. 5 on page 4

The Power Pak is fitted with a control knob that helps to regulate the flow of gas to the gas barbecue appliance. It is important that you familiarize yourself with its use and function.

Gas flow to the gas barbecue appliance can be adjusted by turning the control knob clockwise or towards "-" to decrease gas flow, or counterclockwise, or "+" to increase gas flow.
To shut off the gas flow, turn the control knob fully clockwise.
Ensure that the gas flow is shut off when the device is not in use, and each time a gas cartridge is removed or exchanged.

Operating the device

Slightly turn the control knob on the device in a counterclockwise direction towards "+" to allow for gas flow to the gas barbecue appliance.

Fig. 6 on page 4

Important: Ensure that the Power Pak control knob and all control knobs on the gas barbecue appliance are turned to the off position before removing the gas cartridges.
Open the back cover of the Power Pak.
Turn the gas cartridge counterclockwise to allow for removal from the device.
Disconnect the hose from the gas barbecue appliance.

Do not store the device with gas cartridges still in place, and do not keep the device connected to the gas barbecue appliance when it is not in use.
