Safety Information - Barbecook IMPULS 3.0 BLACK Instrucciones De Instalación

• Change the flexible tube if required
by national regulations
REPLACING THE CYLINDER
When replacing the cylinder, ensure that
the control knob on the barbecue is in the
OFF position and the cylinder is closed.
Never replace a cylinder in the vicinity of
potential ignition sources.
TRANSPORT AND STORAGE OF THE
GAS CYLINDER
Although perfectly safe when handled
correctly, lack of caution may result in fire
and/or explosion.
To minimise the risks:
• Never store the cylinder in a buil-
ding, garage or other enclosed area,
but always in a well-ventilated area
• Never store the cylinder in the
vicinity of another gas operated ap-
pliance, or in a very warm area, such
as a car or boat
• Always keep the cylinder out of
reach for children
• Always transport and store the cylin-
der in an upright position
• Do not smoke in the vicinity of the
cylinder, especially during transport
with a vehicle
HOSE AND REGULATOR
The hose and regulator are not supplied by
the manufacturer. Only use a hose / regula-
tor combination that complies with all local
and national provisions and standards, and
that is compatible with the couplings of the
gas cylinder used and the gas type/nomi-
nal pressure stated on the barbecue. Keep
the hose as short as possible.
• Never connect the barbecue to a
non-regulated gas supply. Never try
to alter the hose or regulator in any
way whatsoever.
• Prior to each use of the barbecue,
check the hose over its full length
for any damage (cracks, tears, burnt
sections) or excessive wear. When
you notice any damage or wear,
replace the hose before using the
barbecue, in accordance with the
national standards
• Fat (or any other hot substance)
must never fall onto the hose, and
the hose must never come into
contact with any hot points on the
barbecue
• The connector of the regulator must
be protected when it is not connec-
ted to the cylinder
• Make sure it is not dragged along
the ground as this could compro-
mise the tightness of the connector

• Do not distort the hose when con-
necting or disconnecting the cylin-
der
• The maximum permissible length of
the hose is 1.5m
LEAKAGE TEST
A
B
C
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
appliances 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)
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 the
venturi tubes. Put the burner back into
place in accordance with the instructi-
ons. (Fig. F) After cleaning, the venturi
tubes must be correctly placed back
over the openings of the gas valves.
