  • The appliance should be operated under well-ventilated conditions. The ventilation system must be of non-flammable character, and the ventilation funnel must be free of any obstruction.
  • When changing the location of the appliance, it must be turned off and cooled down.
  • If the appliance is operated without a motor (for motor on top type of döner-grill machines) use the original skewer turning arm, which can be mounted to the top of the skewer, to rotate the meat.
  • If the gas odor is smelled, turn the gas valves of the appliance and all other gas valves off, and ventilate the room. Call authorized service as soon as possible. * Do never check gas leakage using a match or lighter. Check it using a gas leakage spray or foam.
  • All gas valves, main gas valves, and power supplies must be turned off, after the operation and in cases of emergency.
  • The appliance should not be used beyond its purpose of use.
  • The appliance should not be moved and jolted when operating.
  • Beware spilling of fat, when operating the appliance. Any spilled fat should be cleaned up immediately. Otherwise, accidents and serious injuries might arise from the slippery surface caused by spilled fat.
  • Do not hit and tilt the appliance when carrying it.
  • Do not locate any flammable material near the appliance. Do not operate the appliance near easily flammable materials.
  • If the appliance has to be located near a wall, dividing wall, kitchen furniture, decorative coating, etc., these must definitely be of non-flammable material. Otherwise, these must be coated with non-flammable heat insulation material, and the fire protection instructions must be strictly followed.
  • Leave a 20 cm gap between the location, where the appliance will be operated and the wall.
  • Operational gas pressure values of the appliance are labeled on the appliance. Do not operate the appliance at a gas pressure other than the specified level. * If the appliance is operated with LPG, the distance between the device and the LPG cylinder should be a minimum 50 cm.

During grilling consider that the meat is hot, heavy, and fatty, and do not remove the meat from the appliance until the meat is completely finished!
By opening the main gas valve enable gas to flow to the appliance. Press and hold the gas valve button, and turn it ninety degrees counterclockwise. At this point, gas will flow to the burners. Keep the valve button pressed, and light the burner connected to the gas valve from the front using a match, lighter, etc. (use a long grip lighter or match for this purpose to avoid fire from your fingers). If the burner does not light within 10-15 seconds, turn the valve off, and wait for a short while before retrying. Gas valves are equipped with thermo-elements. Therefore when lighting the burner first, keep the gas valve button pressed until the thermo-element heats up (around 15 seconds). Otherwise, thermo-elements not heated up enough will not allow gas flow, and combustion will not occur. When the thermo-couples are heated up, stop pressing the buttons. By repeating the procedure mentioned above following the same order, all burners of the appliance can be started. If for any external reason, the flame expires, the thermoelements cease the gas flow. Each of the burners is controlled by independent gas valves. Gas valves have two different cooking operation settings – low and full levels. Döner meat can be grilled or kept warm, using these settings as required.
Full Level Setting:
The gas valve button is labeled with a large flame indicator. For operating at full level, set the valve to this position, which will enable meat grilling.
Low-Level Setting:
The gas valve button is labeled with a small flame indicator. For operating at the low level set the valve to this position, which will keep the meat warm.
After the operation is finished always turn all gas valves, main gas valves, and power connections off.
