4. Use of your barbecue
4.1 General information
Even though all gas connections on the barbecue
are tested for leakages before transport, a complete
test must be carried out at the assembly site. During
transport or assembly, parts of the barbecue may have
been moved. It is also possible that the gas pressure
on the equipment is too high. Regularly inspect
the entire system for leaks and check the system
immediately in the event that you smell gas.
4.2 Gas leak test
Always carry out a gas leak test before use of the barbecue and when the barbecue
has not been used for some time.
*Extinguish any open fires (DO NOT SMOKE when testing for leaks).
*Never carry out this gas leak test near open flames.
*Make a soapy solution made up from equal parts of water and liquid soap or
gentle washingup liquid
*Follow the steps below:
1. Turn the control knobs of the burners to off.
2. Remove the battery from the electronic ignition.
3. Open the gas bottle.
4. Apply the soapy solution to all connections of the gas supply. If no soap
bubbles are formed, there is no gas leak. If soap bubbles start to form on a
connection, this indicates a leak. In the event that you detect a leak, turn the
gas supply off immediately, tighten the leaking connections firmly, open the
gas bottle again and repeat steps 1 through to 4.
5. Turn the gas supply off.
6. Turn the control knobs of the burners on for 10 seconds to let the pressure
escape from the hose and then turn the control knobs to off again.
7. Remove the soapy solution from the connections of the equipment with
cold water and rub dry with a cloth. Check all gas supply connections before
every use and do the same when the gas bottle is being connected to the
gas pressure regulator.
It is recommended that you check the gas hose for leaks every year, even if the
gas bottle has never been disconnected from the equipment.

ENBoretti Maggiore / User guide - Installation advice
Note:
Ensure that you test all loose connections (including the side burner) and,
ifrequired, tighten them again when you are testing the equipment for leaks.
Even a small leak in the system can result in a dangerous situation.
Note:
These days, most gas bottles are fitted with a mechanism that detects
leaks inside the container. When the gas is being released too quickly, this
mechanism cuts off the gas supply. A leak can severely restrict the gas
supply which will make it difficult to light the barbecue.
Note:
If you are unable to close off a gas leak, then turn off the gas supply and
contact your sales outlet. Even a small leak can cause a fire.
Note:
If, after several attempts, you are unable to light the barbecue, then contact
your sales outlet.
Note:
Ensure that the control knobs are in the “OFF” position when you are not
using the equipment.
4.3 Lighting the barbecue
*Check the general conditions of the burners (see 0). If you are in doubt about
the condition of the burners, then contact your sales outlet.
*Ensure that the barbecue is placed on a level surface.
*This appliance must be kept away from flammable materials during use.
Keep the cooking area clean and free from petrol and/or other flammable and/
or inflammable substances, flammable gasses or flammable fumes.
*Ensure that nothing is blocking the burners and ventilation.
*Do not use aluminium foil in the enamel burner tray or around the flame
distributors.
*Ensure there is sufficient ventilation for the gas bottle.
Warning:
*Do not light the barbecue if you can smell gas!
*Check the gas hose for cracks or wear and tear (see: GAS LEAK TEST).
*Keep your face and body as far away from the barbecue as possible when
lighting it.

ENBoretti Maggiore / User guide - Installation advice
4.4 Lighting the burners with an electronic igniter
*Ensure that all knobs are in the “OFF” position.
*Always open the lid before you light the barbecue.
*Open the gas supply.
Note:
When opening the gas bottle, turn the valve SLOWLY two (2) whole turns to
get the right gas supply.
*Press and turn one of the control knobs to the “HIGH” setting. You will hear
acrackling noise. It may be necessary to keep the igniter depressed for about
10 seconds.
Note:
if the burner does not light after 10 seconds, turn the knob back to the “OFF”
position and wait 1 minute before you try again.
*Repeat the above steps also for the other burners.
Note:
On some models, as well as the control knob, a separate ignition knob also
needs to be pressed.
4.5 Lighting the burners with a match extender (if provided)
If the electronic igniter does not manage to light the burners, it is also possible to
light the burners with the aid of a match.
*Put the match in the extension piece, if the barbecue is supplied with a match
extender.
*Keep your face as far away as possible from the barbecue and point the
extended match through the openings in the grille toward the burner.
*Place the match close to the burner openings and turn the control knob to the
“HIGH” position.
Note:
If, after several attempts, you are still not able to light the barbecue, please
contact your sales outlet.
