Disconnecting and changing the gas supply
•
After use, turn the gas cylinder valve off, wait for the flame to go out, then turn the appliance
control valve off.
•
When you need to replace your empty cylinder, make sure that the gas is closed at the cylinder
valve.
•
Do not smoke while changing the cylinder.
•
Remove the regulator from the empty cylinder.
•
Attach the regulator to the full cylinder, refer to the instructions above on how to connect the gas
supply.
•
Apply the same care and checking procedures as if fitting a new gas cylinder.
How to check if your gas cylinder is empty
•
The easiest way to check if you are low on gas is by picking up your gas cylinder.
•
If you think your gas cylinder is feeling a little lighter than you'd like, weighing the bottle is a great
way to see how much gas is left. Most cylinders will have the empty weight stamped on either the
neck or footring, and if the weight indicated on the stamp and the weight of your cylinder are the
same, you're out of gas. You can then approximate the amount of gas you have left by the difference
in weight.
3. Operating the Appliance
• When operating this appliance, please take care to ensure that all parts are in good working order
and that you have checked for any gas leaks before lighting the appliance with every use.
• Items can simply be placed on top of each other.
Legs
• WARNING: The legs are spring loaded. Opening and closing of the legs must be done in a
controlled manner to avoid personal injury or damage to your appliance.
• To open the legs, turn the unit upside-down and hold the legs down while lifting each leg
individually (Fig. 4a). You will hear a "click" if the leg(s) has located correctly.
• To fold the legs back, securely hold the leg and push the leg release clip (Fig. 4b). Then push
the legs in-ward to its closed position (Fig. 4a). This needs to be done sequentially to optimize
space. First the right front leg (1), then the left front leg (2), and lastly the rear leg (3) (as seen in Fig.
4b).
Precautions to observe before lighting.
•
Use this appliance only on a firm horizontal level surface.
•
After prolonged storage, inspect the appliance for any insects and webs, which may affect gas
flow.
•
Open the hood/dome prior to lighting.
Lighting the appliance using the piezo
• It is recommended to remove any cooking surfaces when trying to light the appliance. This way it
will be easy to see the burner when it is lit.
• To light up the appliance using the piezo igniter, push and turn the control knob 90° in an anti
clockwise direction, then press the piezo button to ignite the gas (see Fig. 4). If the gas does not
ignite on the first spark, turn the control knob back to its "OFF" position. Try again, by pushing
and turning the control knob anti-clockwise and push the piezo button to ignite the gas. If the gas
has not ignited in the first two to three seconds you should close the control valve by turning the
control knob back to its "OFF" position.
• Wait approximately thirty seconds to let any accumulated gas within the burner escape. Repeat
the above process if necessary until the flame ignites. The flame should normally light up within
the first one to two seconds.
Lighting up using a BBQ lighter
•
When starting cold, the appliance may be lit from the top prior to fitting the desired cooking
surface onto the fat pan. When lighting up a hot appliance, it is recommended that this be done by
sticking a barbecue lighter through one of the vent holes underneath the burner, until it is in line
with the burner (DO NOT place the BBQ lighter through the large hole directly underneath
the burner). Ignite the BBQ lighter. Whilst the BBQ lighter is lit, push and turn the control knob
anti-clockwise to light the burner.
General
•
Once the appliance is lit, the flame intensity may be adjusted by turning the control knob anti-
clockwise to reduce the flame or clockwise to increase the flame.
•
When cooking food with a high fat content, flaring may occur if the selected heat setting is too high.
Should this happen, turn the heat down until the flaring ceases.
•
Do not move the appliance when in use. It is unsafe practice to move the appliance whilst lit and
may cause flaring.
•
After use, first close the control valve on the gas cylinder (where applicable). When the flame has
extinguished, close the control valve on the appliance.
•
WARNING: Do not use any cooking surfaces on a high flame setting for more than 10 minutes without cooking anything as this can damage
the non-stick coatings.
•
WARNING: Avoid boil over and spillage. Do not use as a heater. Not to be used for any other purpose other than cooking. Avoid using near
combustible materials.
