Safety Information

The purpose of this appliance is to be a light weight, compact power source for CADAC | DOMETIC BBQ products when the user does not want to use a large LPG cylinder. The user simply connects two gas cartridges to the Dual Power Pak and then to a suitable CADAC | DOMETIC BBQ appliance, or another compatible unit.

Appliance category: I3B(28-30mbar) All EU, NO, IS, CH, TR, DE, AT and LU
Appliance category: I3B(50mbar) DE, AT and LU
Only to be used with EN417 type disposable cartridges (CADAC CA445,CA500).
The gas cartridge is to be used only in the upright position.
Gas BBQ appliances require ventilation for eﬃ cient performance and to ensure the safety of users and other persons in close proximity.
The Power Pak is ﬁ tted with a regulator with a maximum supply rate of 1.0kg/hour.
Never place the Power Pak on a stove, and always keep it at least 1 meter away from any source of heat, and ensure it is not placed in an environment where the temperature will exceed 50°C.
Always store, transport or use the Power Pak in an upright position.
When not in use, keep the valve closed, even if it is empty.
Check that the seals (Fig. 1) are in place and in good condition before connecting the gas cartridge to the appliance. Do not use the appliance if it has a damaged or worn seal. If in doubt, replace the seal before use.
The appliance should only be used in a well-ventilated location (minimum ventilation requirement 5m3/h) in order to satisfy oﬃ cial ventilation standards for the supply of suﬃ cient combustion air and to avoid the dangerous building up of unburned gases.
Gas cartridges must be ﬁ tted or changed in a well-ventilated location, preferably outside and away from any sources of ignition, such as naked ﬂ ames, pilots, electric ﬁres and away from other people.
Never leave the appliance unattended when in use.
Do not modify the appliance. Do not use it for anything for which it has not been designed.
Do not move the Dual Power Pak during operation.
Do not use the Dual Power Pak in small enclosed spaces without ventilation.
The Power Pak is guaranteed for 2 years against factory defects. Normal wear and tear, valve components and plastic parts are excluded.
The same applies to damage caused by improper handling, misuse or repairs by an unauthorized low-pressure gas dealer. Liability is limited to the replacement of products.
In normal conditions of use, in order to ensure the correct operation of the Power Pak, it is recommended that this regulator is changed within 10 years of the date of manufacture.

Leaks

Do not use an appliance which is leaking, damaged or which does not operate properly (malfunctioning).
If you suspect a gas leak, soapy water must be applied to the joints (the appliance must not be fully immersed in soapy water as this may result in an unsafe operation of the appliance).
To check the gas cartridge for leaks, apply soapy water to the connection area of the gas cartridge and see if any bubbles are visible. Any leakage will be seen as bubbles coming from the leakage point. If you cannot remedy any leakage, return the cartridge to your stockist.
