General information
The barbecue can be operated with gas cylinders weighing between 5 kg and 11 kg. Low pressure butane, propane and LPG gas mixtures are approved.
Your barbecue works best with propane gas and LPG mixtures. Butane can be used, on account of the power rating of the appliance, the gas cylinder may
however freeze. As a result of this, the gas pressure drops and your barbecue does not provide full power.
Use a regulator which is certified in accordance with DIN EN 12864:2001.
NOTE:
For information concerning the correct regulator for gas cylinders, please consult your LPG dealer.
Regulator and hose
These parts are supplied with the barbecue. You can obtain spare parts from your dealer or an approved LPG supplier. Only use hoses and regulators at the
pressure stated above which are approved for LPG.
Normally, the service life of a regulator is 2 years It is recommended that the regulator is replaced within 2 years of the production date
WARNING:
• The hose that is used must correspond to statutory regulations
• The use of unsuitable hoses and incorrect regulators is dangerous
• Before operation, make sure that you use the correct parts
