Connecting the gas cylinder
Make sure that
•the valve of the gas bottle is closed (if necessary, close it by turning it clockwise),
•the existing external thread fits,
•all burner controls on the gas cooker are switched off/set to off.
Check
•the valve connection and regulators for damages and contamination (clean them if necessary),
•the hose for damages and obstructions (replace it if necessary).
1. To connect the pressure reducer to the valve, turn the union nut clockwise. Turn it by hand, for
solid tools can easily damage the union nut.
2. Open the gas cylinder valve (anti-clockwise rotation).
3. Now (before igniting the cooker) apply a soapy solution to the connections to detect any leaks.
Leakage test
Although all gas connections of the gas cooker are checked for leaks before delivery, there may still be
leaks (e.g., due to damage during packaging or transport). Therefore, you must perform a complete
leakage test before commissioning and in regular intervals after the first use. A leakage test must also
be performed when there is gas smell.
DANGER!
•Do not smoke during the leakage test.
•Only carry out the leakage test outdoors and not near sources of ignition, e.g., electrical
appliances, open flames, or sparks.
•Do not carry out the leakage test until all flames have gone out and the burner has been
switched off.
•Fire and explosion hazard! Carry out the leakage test very carefully Overlooked leakages
can lead to fires that are no longer controllable while the gas cooker is in operation.
Serious property damage and serious injuries can result.
1. Prepare a light soapy solution (soap and lukewarm water).
2. Make all connections properly.
3. Open the gas cylinder valve (anti-clockwise rotation). In case you can now hear a whistling
sound, immediately close the valve again, as there is most likely damage to the connections.
When indicated, notify the fire brigade and a gas system technician.
4. Check every point of the entire gas piping system from the cylinder to the burners by applying
a small quantity of soapy solution.
5. With bubbles forming, there is a leak. Close the gas cylinder valve (clockwise rotation) and
check if the leak can be repaired (e.g., a connection is not completely closed and only needs to
be tightened properly).
6. Re-check the spot.
Installation and storage
The product must be set up so that
•neither children nor pets can get into contact with it,
•it is not in or directly next to corridors, paths, or other much-frequented areas,
•it is not exposed to rough weather conditions (e.g., strong winds, snow),
•there is no tripping or falling hazard next to it,
•it is on a fireproof, flat, solid, stable, and anti-slip surface,
•there are no constructions in the vicinity (around 3 m),
•you can observe it during the entire operation.
