The minimum hose length is 600mm and it is recommended that the maximum hose length should not exceed 1.5m.
Gas Container
This appliance must only be used with an approved hose and regulator. (A 2.8kPa hose and regulator supplied only in South Africa)
Ensure that the gas container is fitted or changed in a well-ventilated location, preferably outdoors, away from any sources of ignition such as naked flames, pilots, electric fires and away from other people.
Keep gas containers away from heat and flame. Do not place on a stove or any other hot surface.
Refillable cylinders are to be used only in the upright position so as to ensure proper fuel withdrawal. Failure to adhere to this may cause liquid discharge from the gas container resulting in a dangerous operating condition.
Do not try to remove the cylinder whilst the unit is in operation.
The gas cylinder must be disconnected from the appliance after use or when in storage.
Not for use with a remote gas supply.
Assembly and use

WARNING: Accessible parts may be very hot, the use of protective gloves is recommended. Keep young children away.
Use outdoors only!
Light back
In the event of light back (where the flame burns back and ignites inside the burner or venturi housing), immediately turn off the gas supply by firstly closing the control valve on the gas cylinder and then the appliance valve. After the flame is extinguished, remove the regulator and check the condition of the seal; replace the seal if in doubt. Re-light the appliance.
Should the flame persistently light back, return the product to your authorized CADAC repair agent.
Leaks
If there is a leak on your appliance (smell of gas), turn off the cylinder valve and take it outside immediately into a well-ventilated flame-free location where the leak may be detected and stopped. If you wish to check for leaks on your appliance, do it outside. Do not try to detect leaks using a flame; use soapy water.
The correct way is to smear the joints with soapy water. If a bubble o bubbles form then there is a gas leak. Immediately turn off the gas supply firstly by closing the control valve on the gas container and then the appliance valve. Check that all the connections are properly fitted. Re-check with soapy water.
If a gas leak persists, return the product to your CADAC dealer for

Remove the regulator from the empty cylinder.
Avoid twisting the hose whilst connecting the regulator to the new/replacement cylinder.
Blow out any dust from the cylinder opening to prevent possible blockage of the jet.
Place the full cylinder in its allocated space and attach the regulator connection to the cylinder
Ensure that a complete gas seal has been made (check for the smell of gas around the connection joint). Do not check for leaks with a naked flame. Use warm soapy water only, applied to the joints and connections of the appliance. Any leakage will show up as bubbles around the leakage area. If you are in doubt, contact your nearest stockist.

Cleaning

Allow the appliance to cool down before you clean it.
Use a damp cloth wrung out in a solution of soapy water to clean the exterior and cylinder storage area.
The grill plate is coated with a tough durable ceramic non-stick coating that has been used with great success on some of the best cookware in the world. Never the less, taking care of it can help you to enjoy extra years of healthy, easy, non-stick cooking.
Whilst the non-stick coating is very durable, it can easily be damaged by the use of metal cooking utensils. It is therefore recommended that only plastic or wooden utensils be used when cooking.
Always allow the grill plate to cool before immersing it in water.
Make sure that no water gets onto the burners or pilot/light area. Wipe the appliance completely dry before use.
Do not use abrasive cleaners as they may damage the surfaces.
Clean the appliance after each use. After cleaning recondition the surface with a light wipe of oil.
Do not use any high-pressure steam equipment or a water jet to clean the appliance.
Remove the fat from the moat of the Fat Pan.
Note: For stubborn stains, oven cleaner may be used.

Maintenance

If you clean and maintain your appliance on a regular basis, the life of your appliance will extend and possibility of problems will decrease.
In case of a spattering flame or jet blockage:
Clean your burner ports in case of an over spill.
CADAC recommends to clean or replace the jets every six (6) months to ensure continued efficient operation of your appliance.
This may be done by removing the jet using standard tools and blow any dirt from the jet, alternatively, you may purchase new jets
from your local CADAC store. Do not attempt to clean the jet mechanically.
Service intervals and servicing:
CADAC recommends the service of your appliance to be every twelve (12) months by a service agent to ensure continued efficient operation.
Note: Any technical work on the appliance should only be performed by a qualified technician.
Check your gas hose and connections regularly for and signs of leaks and every time the gas cylinder is re-filled. Should the appliance operate abnormally after storage and all checks have not isolated the problem, the venturi may be blocked. A blocked venturi would be indicated by a weaker yellowish flame or no flame at all in extreme cases. Under these circumstances it will be necessary to remove the burner and to check and thoroughly clean out any foreign matter which may have gathered in the venturi.
