3. Fitting and Changing the Gas Cylinder
• Before tting the appliance to a gas cylinder, ensure that the appliance seal (E)(Fig. 2) is in place and in good condition.
Carry out this check each time you t the appliance to a gas cylinder.
• Blow out any dust from the cylinder opening to prevent possible blockage of the jet.
• Screw the appliance onto the gas cylinder opening - screw hand-tight only.
• Ensure that a complete gas seal has been made (check for the smell of gas around the connection joint). If you have to
check for a gas leak, do this outdoors. Do not check for leaks with a naked ame. 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.
• Gas cylinder valves should only be repaired by an authorised CADAC service centre or dealer.
4. Operating the Appliance
• Always operate the appliance on a rm level surface.
• To light the appliance, hold a ame to the burner, turn the gas control valve slowly in the direction of the “+” arrow until
gas ignites.
• After lighting, do not move the appliance around as liquid gas may entre the appliance from the gas cylinder, causing large
yellow ames.
• Adjust the size of the ame by turning the control valve. To increase the size of the ame, turn the control valve in the
direction of “+” and to decrease turn the control valve in the direction of “-”.
• After use, always ensure that the control valve is closed completely.
• In the event of light back (ignition inside the burner (A) or mixing tube), immediately turn off the gas supply by closing
the control valve on the cylinder. After the ame is extinguished, follow the safety instructions given in sections 2, 3 and
6. Re-light the appliance.
