component.

General safety instructions
Failure to observe the following basic safety measures can result in severe injury to persons and substantial damage to property:

• Use the barbecue only in line with the intended use.
• Never use the barbecue if it is visibly damaged.
• Never modify the barbecue’s technology. Only Use original spare parts from Landmann.
• Use only accessories that are expressly authorised for this barbecue (see the “Accessories” chapter; if in doubt please contact our customer service department).
• Only use the barbecue outdoors in a well-ventilated area and above ground level (i.e. not in depressions below ground level).
• Never leave the barbecue unattended when in use. Take particular care to ensure that children and persons with physical or mental disabilities are kept away from the barbecue. They may not be able to identify the dangers correctly.
• Always wear barbecue mittens when using the barbecue.
• Small parts may be lethal if swallowed. Note that there is a danger of suffocation if the respiratory tract is covered by packing foil.

Residual risks

Danger: Hot surfaces and parts
During operation some parts of the barbecue can become very hot, particularly those close to the grill unit and the lid..

Possible consequences

• Severe burns from touching parts near the grill unit.
• Fire or smoldering fire if flammable materials or substances are near the barbecue.

Precautions prior to barbecuing:

• When setting it up, make sure that
  • there are not, and will not be, any flammable materials or substances nearby. Minimum distance to flammable materials or substances: 2 m overhead and 1 m to the side. Distance to flame-resistant materials or substances, e.g. walls: at least 0.25 m.
  • that the barbecue is positioned firmly on a sufficiently large area. It must not be moved during operation.

Precautions while barbecuing:

• Wear barbecue mittens.
• Never leave the barbecue unattended. Take particular care to ensure that children and pets are kept away from the barbecue.

Danger: Gas is highly flammable Liquid gas is highly flammable and explosive.

Possible consequences
Serious injury to persons or damage to property if escaping or accumulated gas ignites in an uncontrolled manner.

Precautions

• Exclusively use the barbecue outdoors and ensure that the area is well-ventilated.

• Protect the gas cylinder and the gas hose from direct sunlight and other sources of heat (max. 50°C). Take particular care to ensure that the gas hose does not touch any part of the hot barbecue.

• Close the valve of the gas cylinder immediately after finishing to use the barbecue.

• When connecting the gas cylinder, make sure that there are no sources of ignition within a 5 m radius.
  Important note : to avoid the risk of spark-over, do not to light naked flames, do not smoke and do not actuate the switches of electric devices (appliances, lights, door bells, etc.).

• Before each use, make sure that all gas connections are sealed and intact.

• If necessary, replace the gas hose if required to do so to comply with local legislation.

• The barbecue must not be used if the connections for the gas supply are porous or defective. This also applies, for example, to hoses or fittings that are blocked with insects, as this can result in a dangerous flashback.

• When igniting the gas flame do not bend over the barbecue, as deflagration can occur if gas has accumulated in the fire bowl.
  For the same reason, never re-ignite immediately if the flame goes out, instead:

  • Turn the flame regulators (4 x B and C) to “Off” to interrupt the supply of gas.
  • Wait for 3 minutes to ensure that any accumulated gas has dissipated.
  • Then re-ignite the burners (see chapter “Operation”).

Danger: Gas displaces oxygen
Liquid gas is heavier than oxygen. Therefore it settles on the ground and displaces the oxygen at that level.

Possible consequences:
Suffocation resulting from a lack of oxygen if the concentration of gas is allowed to rise to a certain extent.

Precautions

• Exclusively use the barbecue outdoors in a well ventilated area and above ground (i.e. not in areas that are below ground level).
• Close the valve of the gas cylinder immediately after finishing to use the barbecue.
• If the barbecue is not going to be used for a prolonged period, cut off the supply from the gas cylinder and store properly:
  • Fit the gas cylinder valve with a cap nut and safety cap.
  • Do not store the gas cylinder in rooms below ground level, in or near stairways, hallways or passages and thoroughfares between buildings.
  • Always store gas cylinders upright, even if they are empty!

Assembly

Here are a few tips to help you assemble your barbecue quickly and successfully:

• Check that no parts are missing by placing all of the individual parts on an empty table (subject to minor technical changes).
• If, despite careful factory checks, a component should be missing, please contact our customer service department (see last page). We will immediately attend to your request.
• To assemble the barbecue, all you need is a medium-sized screwdriver.
• Only use tools that are intact and suitable for the job at hand. Worn or unsuitable tools will not allow you to tighten the bolts sufficiently, but will damage them to the extent that they can no longer be turned.
• Always fit all connecting elements (screws, nuts, bolts, et cetera) as shown in the illustrations. If you misplace a connecting element, replace it with an appropriate part. Only by doing this can you ensu-re that the construction is strong and safe.
• Be sure to follow the instructions in the specified order!
• Even if you are not experienced at DIY, assembly does not generally take longer than one hour.

The illustrations showing the assembly steps are at the end of this manual.

Permitted gas cylinder sizes

Before starting

• Select a suitable, preferably wind-sheltered area to set up the barbecue. Make sure that …
  • there are not, and will not be, any flammable materials or substances in the vicinity. The minimum distance to flammable materials or substances must be 2 m overhead and 1 m to the side of the barbecue; the distance to fla-me-resistant materials or substances must be at least 0.25 m.
  • the barbecue is positioned firmly on a suffici-ently large area. It must not be moved during operation.
• Do not use the gas cylinder in the cabinet, always-beside the barbecue.
  • Never lay the gas cylinder on its side.
  • Do not kink the gas hose or apply a tension to it.
• Make sure that the seal in the pressure regulator (G4) is present and intact. Do not use any additional seals.
• When connecting the gas cylinder ensure that there are no sources of ignition within a 5 m radius. Important note: to avoid the risk of spark-over, do not to light naked flames, do not smoke and do not actuate the switches of electric devices (appliances, lights, door bells, etc.).

Connecting the gas cylinder

1. Press the regulator onto the gas cylinder outlet Do not use any tools for this, as the cylinder valve seal could be damaged in the process, resulting in leaks.

2. Make sure that the pressure regulator (G5) and the gas hose (G6) are securely connected.

3. Check to make sure the connection between the pressure regulator (G3) and gas cylinder (G1) are secure.
   Make sure that the hose is not kinked or twisted in any way and that it is not under tension.

4. Open the cylinder valve (turn G2 anti-clockwise) and use a standard leak detector to make sure that all of the connections are tight.

   • Please observe the instructions for the leak indicator! Never check for leaks using a naked flame. Listening for leaks is not a reliable method of detection.
   • If a leak is detected, close the cylinder valve immediately (turn G2 clockwise) and tighten the loose connection or replace the leaking part. Repeat the leak test.

5. If you do not wish to barbecue immediately, close the cylinder valve (turn G2 clockwise).

Disconnecting the gas cylinder

1. Close the cylinder valve (turn G2 clockwise).

2. Press G2 inwards and pull the regulator upwards.

3. Store the pressure regulator (G3) with the gas hose (G6) under the barbecue. Make sure the gas hose is not kinked or twisted in any way.

4. Store the gas cylinder correctly:
   Do not store the gas cylinder in rooms below ground level, in or near stairways, hallways or passages and thoroughfares between buildings.

   • Always store gas cylinders upright, even if they are empty!

Operation

Caution
Observe the maximum load of the shelves (see Technical Data). Heavier loads can damage the barbecue.

Starting up the barbecue

1. Check to ensure that ….
   • there are not, and will not be, any flammable materials or substances nearby. Minimum distance to flammable materials or substances: 2 m overhead and 1 m to the side; distance to flame-resistant materials or substances: at least 0.25 m.
   • the barbecue is positioned firmly on a sufficiently large area. Do not move it during operation.
   • the barbecue is fully assembled and has no apparent faults.
2. Open the lid of the grill unit; this prevents gas building up underneath it.
3. Open the cylinder valve (turn G1 anti-clockwise).
4. Check to ensure that the gas system does not leak. If it does, close the cylinder valve immediately (turn G2 in clockwise direction).
5. Insert the grease tray (25) into shelf of the grill unit (10).

Igniting the burners

Danger: gas deflagration upon ignition If unburned gas accumulates, deflagration can occur when igniting.
Possible consequences:

• This can cause severe injury or damage. Precautions:
• Do not lean over the barbecue when igniting the gas flame.
• Never re-ignite immediately if the flame goes out, instead:
  • Turn the flame regulators (4 x B and C) to “Off” to interrupt the supply of gas.
  • Wait for 3 minutes to ensure that any accumulated gas has dissipated.
  • Then re-ignite the burners.

Igniting the burner on the grill unit

1. Open the lid on the grill unit.
   Maintain the greatest possible distance from the grill unit during the next few steps.

2. Press and turn the respective flame regulator (B) in anti-clockwise direction to HIGH (“large flame”). Keep it pressed in this position. In this process, you will hear a cracking noise caused by the Piezo ignition and the burner ignites.

3. Ignite the other burner on the grill unit. When doing this repeat steps 2 and 3.

4. Close the lid of the grill unit and allow the barbecue to heat up at full power.
   The first time you use the barbecue, heat for some 20 minutes without food so that the food-safe coating is hardened (as with any oven).

5. Once the barbecue is heated up, turn the flame regulator (B) to the desired heat level (flame size).

6. You can now place your food on the grill. We recommend that you wear barbecue mittens or other suitable gloves for protection against the heat.

To switch off the burners (to extinguish the flame) press and turn the flame regulators (B) clockwise to “OFF”.
The gas supply is only disconnected if all the flame regulators have been set to OFF.

Switching off the barbecue

1. Close the cylinder valve (turn G2 clockwise).
2. Press and turn all flame regulators (B+C) clockwise to “OFF”.
3. Wait until all of the parts have cooled down and then clean any soiled components (see chapter “Cleaning”).
4. Close the lid on the grill unit.
5. If the barbecue is not going to be used for a prolonged period:
   • Disconnect the gas cylinder (see chapter “Dis-connecting the gas cylinder”).
   • Store the barbecue in a dry place. The barbecue must be covered with a recommended bbq cover.

Cleaning

Danger: Risk of burns when cleaning the hot barbecue
Some parts of the barbecue can get very hot. Allow the barbecue to cool down sufficiently before cleaning it. Wear protective gloves.

Caution: Spark plug on burner can be bent
The spark plugs on the burner can be bent or snapped off while cleaning the burner areas. In this case, the gas in the burner will not ignite. For this reason, clean the areas around the burners with particular care.

To make sure that you enjoy your barbecue for many years, you should always clean it after use – after making sure that all the parts have cooled down – with detergent, a brush and a cloth. It will be much harder to do this later, once the dirt has dried.

Gas system
The gas outlet nozzles on the adjusters (underneath the front panel) can be cleaned with a pin if necessary.

Warning: Risk of fire and explosion
All other parts through which gas is transferred should only be cleaned by an expert.
Never dismantle the adjusting elements!

Service
The barbecue is maintenance-free. Nevertheless, you should check it at regular intervals. The intervals depend on how often it is used and the environmental conditions to which it is exposed.

Barbecue

• Inspect the burners for dirt and blockage. Particularly make sure that both air inlets at the side of each burner tube are clear. If necessary, clean the inlets, e.g. with a pipe cleaner.
• A contaminated burner can impair the performance of the barbecue and lead to a dangerous ignition of gas outside the burner.
• Make sure that all parts of the barbecue are available and assembled (visual check).
• Check to ensure that all connections are present and securely fastened. Tighten if necessary.

Gas system
The gas system needs to be checked every time a gas cylinder is connected (see chapter “Connecting and disconnecting the gas cylinder“).
If necessary, replace the hose to comply with the national requirements.

Environmental information and waste disposal measures
Pay attention to cleanliness when handling the barbecue.
To dispose of the barbecue properly, disassemble it into its individual parts. Recycle the metal and plastic components.
Observe the local regulations.

Troubleshooting

If there is a fault despite due care, this chapter may help you to resolve the fault.

1. Close the cylinder valve immediately (turn G1 clockwise).
2. Prevent any flame or spark formation (do not switch on any electrical appliances)
