A leakage test must be performed:
• Before the barbecue is lighted for the
first time
• Each time the cylinder is replaced or
a gas part is changed
• At least once a year, preferably at
the start of the season
The leakage test must be performed
outdoors, in a well-ventilated area and not
in the vicinity of an open flame, heat or
ignition sources. No smoking! Use only a
50/50 mixture of liquid soap and water for
the leakage test. Do not use a match or an
open flame.
1. Once you have connected the cylinder to
the barbecue and all control knobs are
'OFF', slowly open the cylinder 1 turn.
2. Rub the soap solution over all connecti-
ons and components listed below.
Check the following areas for leaks:
• The welded joints of the cylinder (Fig. A)
• All valve connections (Fig. B)
• Regulator coupling and connection of
the cylinder (Fig. B)
• All hose connections (Fig. C)
3. Soap bubbles indicate a leak.
4. Firmly tighten any leaky connection and
repeat the test as long as a leak is indi-
cated (close the cylinder valve when you
are checking the leak).
5. Disconnect the cylinder/control valve and
check that all control knobs are OFF.
6. Do not use the barbecue if you can-
not repair the leak. Close the cylinder
valve, remove the cylinder and contact a
qualified maintenance person for gas ap-
pliances or the gas supplier to carry out
the appropriate repairs.
Note: the regulator may differ from the
version shown here.

PRIOR TO FIRST USE / AFTER
PROLONGED PERIOD OF NON-USE
Do not use the barbecue before you have
read, understood and checked all informa-
tion in this manual.
Ensure that:
• The barbecue is correctly installed
• There is no leak in the gas supply
(see 'Leakage test')
• The burners are correctly installed,
the venturi tubes are properly placed
over the openings of the gas valves
(Fig. D), and there are no obstruc-
tions (see safety information and
cleaning of the burners)
• None of the gas supply hoses can
come into contact with a hot surface
• Your barbecue is installed in a safe
place

SAFETY INFORMATION
Natural hazards - spiders and insects:
very tiny insects may crawl into the ven-
turi tubes of the gas burners and build a
web or nest (Fig. E)

that could block gas flow in whole or in
part. Such a situation is indicated by a
smoky, yellow flame and/or burner that
can only be lighted with difficulty or not
at all. The gas may eventually burn
outside the venturi tube and thus cause
serious damage to your barbecue.
Should this happen, immediately close
the cylinder. Clean the burners as soon
as the barbecue has cooled down.
Remove the burner(s) as shown in Fig.
F. Clean with a pipe cleaner or brush
both venturi tubes. Put the burner
back into place in accordance with the
instructions. (Fig. F) After cleaning, the
venturi tubes must be correctly placed
back over the openings of the gas
valves.
Note: damage arising from a fully or partly
blocked venturi tube in a burner is not cov-
ered by the guarantee and is considered
lack of proper maintenance

LIGHTING THE BURNERS
Prior to lighting the burners, all checks and
procedures detailed in the chapter 'Before
the first use' must have been carried out.
• The lid of the barbecue must always
be open when you light the burner(s)
• Do not bend directly over the barbe-
cue when lighting the burner(s)
• The control knobs of the barbecue
must be 'OFF'. Slowly open the gas
cylinder valve. Before opening the
control knob of one burner, wait ap-
prox. 10 seconds to allow to gas to
stabilize
• Important: first light the left burner
• As soon as one burner has been
lighted, you only need to put the con-
trol knob of the other burner(s) in the
position 'HIGH' to light them.
• Never try to light all burners at once
LIGHTING THE BURNERS WITH THE
IGNITER
• Open the lid of the barbecue
• Open the gas cylinder valve.
• Press the igniter until you hear
sparks
• Holding down the igniter, press the
control knob of the middle burner
and turn to 'HIGH'
• If the burner does not light after 3
attempts, disconnect the gas and
wait 5 minutes before trying again.
This will allow the accumulated gas
to escape. Try again, repeating the
above steps.
• If the burner still does not light, read
the chapter 'Troubleshooting Guide'
to determine the cause and the
