cartridges.
The circuits opening / closing valves are located in the cupboard under
the oven.
The boat in her U.S. version has an electrovalve located in the locker
where the bottles are stored.
Switch the electrovalve on using its switch on the flat rim by the hot-
plate.

close the gas valve and turn off the regulator tap when the stove and oven
are not used.
GAS LEAK DETECTION
l
The gas circuit is equipped with a leak detection system.
Standard version: a bubble leak detector is placed on the circuit after
the regulator in the cylinder storage container.
When the cylinder is open (system pressurised) and the valve under
the gas appliance is closed, press the red button on the detector.
If nothing happens, the circuit is sealed.
The appearance of bubbles in the detector liquid signals a leak on the
gas circuit.
US version: a pressure gauge is placed on the circuit after the regulator
in the cylinder storage container.
When the cylinder is open (system pressurised) and the valve under
the appliance is closed, the pressure on the manometer must remain
constant.
If the pressure drops then this means that there is a leak on the gas circuit.
DaNGER
In case of a leak, turn off the gas circuit immediately.
call a professional immediately to repair gas system.
