4 RECURRENT CONCEPTS
This part includes definitions of some less familiar concepts.These
conceptsare used in several topics of the manual.
4.1 Venturis
The venturis are the small tubesattached to the entrance of the
burners. At the side of the venturis, there is a hole. This is visible on the
main burners and on the side burner:

www.barbecook.com
7
When the gasison its way to the burners, it passes through the
venturis. Thanks to the holesat the sides, the gasis then mixed with
airand - as a result - with oxygen. This is necessary for a good ignition
in the burners: only the correct mixture of gas and oxygen will ignite
properly and will result in nice flames.
4.2 Burner hoods
The burner hoods are the hoods that you mount above the burners of
your appliance.Theyprotect the burners from dripping fat.The holes
at the sidesof the hoods also distribute the heat over the grill, so it is
heated much faster and more evenly.
4.3 Enamel
Some parts of the appliance are covered in a layer of melted glass,
called enamel.This enamel protects the underlying metal from
corrosion. Enamel isa high-quality material: it is resistant to
rust, does not fade under the influence of high temperatures and is
very easy to maintain.
Because the enamel is less flexible than the metal whichthe
appliance incorrectly. To avoid problems, be careful when
assembling enamelled parts and always maintain the enamel
as described furtherinthis manual.
4.4 Flare-ups
Flare-ups are sudden flames that sparkfrom the bowl when you are
grilling. They are usually caused by dripping fat or marinade.
5 ASSEMBLING THE APPLIANCE
5.1 Safetyinstructions
•Do not modifythe appliance when assembling it. It is very
dangerous and not allowed to alter parts that are
•pre-assembled and/or sealed by the manufacturer.
•Always followthe assemblyinstructions carefully.
•The user is responsible for the correct assembly of the appliance.
Damagescaused by improper assembly are not covered by the
warranty.
5.2 To assemble the appliance
You need a cross-slotted screwdriver, a flat-slotted screwdriver and an
AA battery (electrical igniter). There are no batteries supplied with the
appliance.
1. Put the appliance on a flat and clean surface.
2. Assemble the appliance as shown on the assembly drawings.
You find them in the second part of this manual, after the
exploded view of yourappliance.
Be careful when assembling enamelled parts. The tools and
screws may damage the enamel.Use the provided fiber
washers to protect the enamel around the screws.
The blister packs can contain more screws than necessary.
Screws canbe left over after the assembly.
The package includesan emergency kit with spare assembly
parts (screws, bolts, fiber washers...) You can use them in case
you lost or broke some parts.
6 CONNECTING GAS TO THE
APPLIANCE
6.1 Which cylinder, hose and regulator?
To connect gas to the appliance, you need a gascylinder, hose and
pressure regulator. The hose and regulator are supplied withthe
appliance, the cylinder is not.
Which cylinder, hose and regulator you have to use, dependsonthe
country you live in. In Austria (AT), Switzerland (CH) and Germany (DE),
you have to use a propane cylinder and a hose and regulator for 50
mbar.
Country Cylinder, hose and regulator
AT Propane, 50 mbar
CH Propane, 50 mbar
DE Propane, 50 mbar
If you have to replace the hose or pressure regulator, buy
materials withthe same properties as the ones supplied with
the appliance.
Take your pressure regulator with you when buying a gas
cylinder. Not all pressure regulators fit all cylinders.
6.2 Safety instructions
•Never connect the cylinder directly to the appliance. Always
mount a pressure regulator on the cylinder first.
•Never modify pre-assembled or sealed parts of the cylinder, the
hose or the pressure regulator.
•Keep the hose as short as possible (1,5 m maximum) to prevent it
from dragging on the ground.
•While connecting the cylinder, hose and pressure regulator:
- Never distort the hose.
- Always keep the cylinderinan upright position.
- Never open the gas supply.
•Check for leaks each time you make changes to the gas
connection. See “7 Checking for gas leaks”.
6.3 Connecting the hose to the appliance
1. Locate the gastube of your appliance.

2. Screw the gas hose on the gas tube (A) and tighten it with two
spanners. Hold the tube with one spanner, while turning the hose
with the other spanner (B).
AB
6.4 Connecting the hose and cylinder to
the regulator
You need a 17mm spanner and an adjustable spanner.
1. Screw the hose on the pressure regulator and tighten it witha 17
mm spanner (A).
2. 2 Screw the regulator clockwise on the cylinder and tighten it with
an adjustable spanner (B).
AB
6.5 Replacing the cylinder
1. Close the gas supplyand set all control knobs to OFF.
2. Disconnect the emptycylinder and connect the full cylinder.
3. Check the cylinder, the hose and all gas connections for leaks.
See “7 Checking for gas leaks”.
7 CHECKING FOR GAS LEAKS
7.1 Why check for gas leaks?
Propane and butane are heavierthan air. As a result, they do not float
away when leaking from the appliance. Especially on windless days,
a leak can cause the gas to collect in and around the appliance.That
accumulated gascan then ignite and explode.
7.2 When check for gas leaks?
•Before the first use or before the first use after a long period of
non-use.
Also check forgas leaks if your appliance was assembled by
your dealer.
•Each time you replace a gas component.
•At least once a year, preferably at the beginning of the season.
7.3 Safety instructions
•Put the appliance outdoors, in awell-ventilated area.Make sure
there are no flames or heat sources nearthe appliance.
•Never use a lighter or match to checkfor gasleaks.
•Do not smoke and do not light the burners when checking forgas
leaks.
7.4 Which materials do I need?
To check for gas leaks, you need:
•A testing liquid. You can use a ready-made leak spray or a mixture
of water (50%) and dish-washing soap (50%).
•The leak test tool that came with your appliance. You use it to
suck up the testing liquid and apply it to the gas component or
connectionthat you want to check.
7.5 To check for gas leaks
You check forgas leaks by applying a testing liquid to all gas
components and connections. If the bubbles on a particular
component or connection grow, there is gasleak:

To check forgas leaks, proceed as follows:
1. Put the appliance outside.
2. Get your leak test tool and testing liquid (leak spray or water/
soap mixture).
3. Open the lid and set all control knobs to OFF.
4. Open the gas supply slightly. Turn the valve of the gas cylinder
only once.
5. Suck up some testing liquid with the leak test tool and apply it to
the area that you want to check. You have to check:
•The welds of the gascylinder (A)
•The hose (B)
•The connections between the cylinderand the pressure
regulator and between the pressure regulator and the hose
(C)
•The connection between the hose and the appliance (D)

6. Do one of the following:
•If you detect a leak, continue as described in “ In case of a
gas leak”.
•If there are no leaks, close the gas supply, rinse all
components thoroughly with water and dry themwell.
7.6 In case of a gas leak
1. Close the gas supplyand do one of the following:
•If you detected a leak on one of the connections, tighten that
connection.
•If you detected a leak on the cylinder or hose, replace the
cylinderor hose.
2. Recheckthe connection or component on which you detected
the leak.
3. If the leak is not repaired,contact a Barbecook dealer. Do not use
the appliance until the leakis repaired.
