Before using the product

DANGER! Fire and explosion hazard!

• Regularly check the pressure reducer and the gas hose for leaks!
• You must replace a worn gas hose before each further use of the device!

The gas cooker may only be put into operation when

• a faultless/non-worn flexible gas hose is connected,
• the gas hose has no kinks and does not touch other components.

In case one of these issues is not complied with, you may not use the gas cooker. Gas pressure reducers and gas hoses are available from specialist dealers or from a gas cylinder supplier.

Note:

• Propane/butane cylinders should be installed at least 5 to 10 cm away from the stove.
• Only use cylinders with a flat bottom.
• Gas hose: according to national guidelines and standards (max. 1.5 m)
• Gas regulator: according to national guidelines and standards (max. flow rate 1.5 ㎏⁄h). The controller must conform to EN12864 or EN16129 if manufactured before December 31, 2015. The controller must conform to EN16129 if manufactured after December 31, 2015.

DANGER! Fire and explosion hazard!

• Do not store the gas cylinder at temperatures above 50 ℃.
• Do not store the gas cylinder near fire or flammable substances!

In addition, the product may only be put into operation when

• the gas cylinder used with it is undamaged,
• the gas cylinder complies with the prescribed specifications (5, 8, or 11 kg capacity),
• and the gas cylinder is equipped with a protective valve.

Connecting the gas cylinder

Make sure that

• the valve of the gas bottle is closed (if necessary, close it by turning it clockwise),
• the existing external thread fits,
• all burner controls on the gas cooker are switched off/set to off.

Check

• the valve connection and regulators for damages and contamination (clean them if necessary),
• the hose for damages and obstructions (replace it if necessary).

1. To connect the pressure reducer to the valve, turn the union nut clockwise. Turn it by hand, for solid tools can easily damage the union nut.
2. Open the gas cylinder valve (anti-clockwise rotation).
3. Now (before igniting the cooker) apply a soapy solution to the connections to detect any leaks.

Leakage test
Although all gas connections of the gas cooker are checked for leaks before delivery, there may still be leaks (e.g., due to damage during packaging or transport). Therefore, you must perform a complete leakage test before commissioning and in regular intervals after the first use. A leakage test must also be performed when there is a gas smell.

DANGER

• Do not smoke during the leakage test.
• Only carry out the leakage test outdoors and not near sources of ignition, e.g., electrical appliances, open flames, or sparks.
• Do not carry out the leakage test until all flames have gone out and the burner has been switched off.
• Fire and explosion hazard! Carry out the leakage test very carefully Overlooked leakages can lead to fires that are no longer controllable while the gas cooker is in operation. Serious property damage and serious injuries can result.

1. Prepare a light soapy solution (soap and lukewarm water).
2. Make all connections properly.
3. Open the gas cylinder valve (anti-clockwise rotation). In case you can now hear a whistling sound, immediately close the valve again, as there is most likely damage to the connections. When indicated, notify the fire brigade and a gas system technician.
4. Check every point of the entire gas piping system from the cylinder to the burners by applying a small quantity of soapy solution.
5. With bubbles forming, there is a leak. Close the gas cylinder valve (clockwise rotation) and check if the leak can be repaired (e.g., a connection is not completely closed and only needs to be tightened properly).
6. Re-check the spot.

Installation and storage

The product must be set up so that

• neither children nor pets can get into contact with it,
• it is not in or directly next to corridors, paths, or other much-frequented areas,
• it is not exposed to rough weather conditions (e.g., strong winds, snow),
• there is no tripping or falling hazard next to it,
• it is on a fireproof, flat, solid, stable, and anti-slip surface,
• there are no constructions in the vicinity (around 3 m),
• you can observe it during the entire operation.

The gas cooker may only be stored if it

• entirely cooling down and drying off (if necessary).
• has been cleaned,
• has been disconnected from the gas cylinder/can be stored separately.

CAUTION: Note that storing the device in (totally) closed rooms or outside areas is not permitted.

Igniting the burner
Before commissioning, ensure that a leak test has been carried out.

1. Open the main gas valve.
2. Push the knob in and turn it counter-clockwise to the “ON” position until you hear the ignition click. The large and small burners ignite.
3. To use only the small burner, turn the control further to the right.
4. To control the burning power, set the control to the desired position between “ON” and “OFF.” Gently move the knob towards the “OFF” position. The flame may go out in this area and gas may escape.
5. If the burner does not ignite as desired, there may be air in the system.
6. Turn the control back to OFF and wait at least 5 min to ensure that gas fumes have dissipated before attempting to light the burner again.

Observe the height and color of the flame as the burners are used. The flame should be blue on the inside and yellow on the tip.

ATTENTION: Material damage hazard! Clogged or blocked burners result in poor gas flow and poor combustion with higher gas consumption. This can also accelerate the wear and tear of the device.

Security after operation

• Always allow the stove to cool completely before touching it.
• Always remove the gas cylinder from the stove when not in use – a safety cap should be fitted on the gas cylinder.
• Remove the regulator connection and store it under the grill inside the cooker.
• Never store gas cylinders in an enclosed space (house, garage, etc.). Store outdoors in a well-ventilated, shaded area and away from heat sources or open flames.

Caring and maintaining

• Clean the cooker with hot, soapy water, rinse thoroughly, and dry before storing. Wipe the remaining exposed parts of the stove with a damp cloth. Do not use abrasives.
• To protect the stove, the device must be kept clean and covered at all times when not in use.
• Cover and store in a sheltered place and out of the reach of children and pets.
• After storing the product, before using it again, make sure that the burners are free of leaves, dirt, insects, cobwebs, etc., as these can obstruct the flow of combustion air.
• Before each use, the burner flame should be visually inspected for proper operation. DO NOT use burner/flame if not working properly.
• This stove requires unrestricted airflow to operate properly.
• The stove should always be kept away from combustible materials, fuel, or other combustible vapors or liquids during operation or storage.

NOTES

• Due to the intense heat of the burner, it is normal for the stove to become discolored during the first few uses.
• Avoid spilling oil or grease as they may accidentally ignite and cause a fire.

Food safety

• Do not thaw meat/fish at room temperature or in the microwave, but in the refrigerator overnight.
• The food must not stand in the defrosting water – you can wrap it with kitchen paper.
• Always wash your hands, use dishes/tools, and the work area with soap and hot water after contact with raw meat/fish.
• Strictly separate raw meat/fish from other foods (contamination hazard!).
• Always cook food at least up to the core temperature generally recommended or, if different, up to the seller’s recommendation. Use the higher value as a guide.
• Guide values for safe core temperatures of various meat/fish products are as follows:

Gas pressure (mbar)

| Butane (G30)| 28–30, 50
Propane (G31)| 37, 50
Injector size (㎜)| 1.38
Gas type| Butane (G30), propane (G31)

Gas category

| 3+ // G30/31- 28–30 / 37 mbar B/P // G30 – 30 mbar

B/P // G30 – 37 mbar B/P // G30 – 50 mbar

CAUTION: Disobeying the principles of proper kitchen hygiene can lead to food poisoning or other diseases. Infection with harmful pathogens from food may occur as well in case the cooking time is insufficient.

Troubleshooting
