3. Close the valve on the regulator or gas cylinder.
(Fig. 14-A)
4. Close the adjustment knob on the appliance by turning
it towards "O". (Fig. 14-B)
5. Screw or push the regulator onto the cylinder or onto
the valve on the gas cylinder.
6. Check that the air holes in the burner tube, close to the
injector, are not obstructed by dust or cobwebs.
D-1 CHECKING FOR GAS LEAKS
Do not check for leaks using a lame. Use a gas leak
detecting liquid.
1. Apply gas leak detecting liquid to the cylinder /
regulator / hose / appliance joints. The adjustment
know should remain closed: off position (O).
"O"
2. Open the gas supply (valve on the regulator or cylinder)
(Fig. 15-A).
3. Any gas leaks will be indicated by bubbles.
4. Shut off the gas supply (valve on the regulator or
cylinder) (Fig. 14).
5. The leak can be stopped by tightening any hose
connection or replacing any faulty component. The
appliance must not be used until the leak is stopped.
Important:
An overall inspection and leaks check must be carried
out at least annually and always after changing the gas
cylinder..
E - OPERATION
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Do not use your appliance at a distance closer than
20 cm to a wall or lammable object, nor closer than 1
metre to a ceiling.
WARNING: Accessible parts may be very hot. Keep young
children away.
Never touch the burner during or just after using the
equipment.
Position the equipment on a stable, horizontal surface
and do not move when in use.
Do not use a cooking vessel smaller than 12 cm or larger
than 20 cm in diameter.
In the event of a leak (smell of gas), close all valves.
Wait for the appliance to cool down completely before
handling it for storage.
After use, always close the valve on the regulator or gas
cylinder.
E-1 LIGHTING UP
Piezo Ignition (Fig. 15):
1. Open the gas supply (A) (valve on the regulator or
cylinder) (towards "+").
2. Turn the adjustment knob (B) to maximum (towards
"+").
3. Press the ignition button repeatedly (C) until the burner
is lit.
4. If the burner does not ignite after 4 or 5 attempts, wait
5 minutes and then repeat the operation.
Match Ignition (Fig. 16):
If the piezo ignition doesn't work, or your model isn't
equipped with the piezo ignition system:
1. Open the gas supply (A) (valve on the regulator or
cylinder).
2. Put a lit match (B) near the burner from underside.
3. Turn the adjustment knob (C) to maximum (towards

E-2 OPERATION
• It is recommended protective gloves to be worn to
handle components which may be very hot.
• Preheating: Before grilling, preheat the appliance for
about 10 minutes in full flame. When using the appliance
for the first time, preheat for about 20 minutes in full
flame in order to eliminate the smell of paint from new
components.
• A bluish discolouration of the hot plate is due to the
strong heat development. This is without any impact on
the quality of the used material.
• Note: In case the burner extinguishes whilst grilling,
close the gas valve immediately and wait 5 minutes to let
the gas be evaporated. Re-ignite the appliance after this
waiting time.
E-3 SHUTTING DOWN
