IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
In Case of Fire
Do not use water on grease fires. Never pick up a fla-
ming pan. Turn the controls off. Smother a flaming pan on a
cooktop burner by covering the pan completely with a well fit-
ting lid or baking tray. If available use a multipurpose dry chemi-
cal or foam-type fire extinguisher.
Open doors and windows or if a hood is fitted turn it on to remo-
ve smoke and odor.
To Prevent Fire or Smoke Damage
Before using the appliance make sure all the packing materials
have been removed. Always keep the area around the appliance
free from combustible materials, gasoline, and other flammable
vapors and liquids.
If the appliance is installed near a window, proper precautions
should be taken to prevent curtains from blowing over the bur-
ners.
NEVER leave any items on the appliance. The hot air may igni-
te flammable items and may increase pressure in closed contai-
ners, which may cause them to burst. Many aerosol-type spray
cans are EXPLOSIVE when exposed to heat and may be highly
flammable. Avoid their use or storage near an appliance.
Many plastics will burn and most are damaged by heat. Keep
plastic items away from parts of the appliance that may become
warm or hot. Do not leave plastic items on the appliance as they
may burn, melt or soften if left too close to a vent or a lighted
burner.

1.2. Built-in enclosure
The Broche Flamberge is designed for installation in either combustible or non-com-
bustible enclosure. No combustible material should be installed in front of the applian-
ce, at a distance shorter than 5 ft (1.50 m)
The dimensions of the enclosure are as follows:
— Height: 28.7" (730 mm) minimum - 30” (760 mm) maximum
— Width: 30" (760 mm) minimum - 31.5” (800 mm) maximum
— Depth: 18" (457 mm) minimum (to allow free space behind unit)
A frame will cover the outline of the enclosure with a 1.6" (40 mm) overlap at top and
both sides and at the bottom. The Broche Flamberge can be fixed from the front by
means of 4 screws on the frame, in a position to be determined by the installer, depen-
ding on the appearance or configuration of the wall covering.
Voltage: 120 V a.c., Single Phase, 60 Hz
Safety: this appliance when installed must be electrically grounded in
accordance with local codes, or in the absence of local codes, with the latest
edition of the National Electrical Code, ANSI / NFPA 70 in the USA or the
Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.2 - in Canada.
Gas is supplied to this unit by means of a 1/2" diameter pipe.
Use sealing compound on all pipe joints. Compound used must be resistant to the
action of LP Gases.
The gas supply line to the appliance must be at least the same size as the gas inlet. An
easily accessible manual shutoff valve must be installed, keeping in mind the fact
that on the appliance, the gas inlet is located at the back:
NOTE:
Make sure that the supply line is clear of burrs and metal particles in order to
avoid damage to the gas controls once the gas is turned on. The pipe
connections can then be made
When your "La Cornue" appliance is installed between kitchen cabinets, the manual
shutoff valve should be accessible. We recommend it be located at the rear of an adja-
cent cabinet.
According to gas regulations, any opening in the wall or on the floor for gas supply of
the appliance must be properly sealed as well as any circulation of air between the gas
supply room and the kitchen.
When all the work has been carried out on your gas supply network, ensure that no

Electrical CONNECTIONS
metallic burr can enter the supply tube of the stove and block the burners. Then make
sure that all gas connections are properly sealed.
Refer to "Important Safety Information" section, on pages 1 - 8.
After all work has been completed on your gas supply network, an operating test must
be performed before connecting the Broche Flamberge, in order to ensure that no
metallic particles may enter the supply tube and obstruct the burner. The gas supply
piping system must be tested as shown in page 3 of this guide.
The appliance must be electrically installed and grounded in accordance with
local codes or in the absence of such codes with the latest edition of the
"National Electrical Code", ANSI/NFPA 70 in the USA, and CSA C22.2
"Canadian Electrical Code” - in Canada.
Disconnect all power supply circuits before accessing the junction boxes.
The Broche Flamberge is supplied with a connection terminal
block accessible by unscrewing the stainless steel protection plate
on the backside.
This appliance must be supplied with 120 Volt and 60 Hz frequency,
and connected to an individual, properly grounded branch circuit,
protected by a circuit breaker or time-delay fuse. Circuit Breaker
size chosen to meet local codes according to max electrical power of
15.5 Watts (0.13 Amps).
Wiring must conform to National Electric Codes.
If the electric service provided does not meet the above specifications, have a licensed
electrician install an approved outlet.
Because rotisserie terminals are not accessible after appliance is in position, flexible
service conduit or cord must be used. The appliance can then be easily disconnected for
servicing.
REMINDER: connection to the general power supply must be via terminal blocks
(preferably of the self-shearing type), not by means of plugs.
Fix the cable way below the hot air outlets, at the back of the Broche Flamberge, never in
front of them.

CONNECTIONS Gas
The installation of your La Cornue appliance must conform with local codes or,
in the absence of local codes, in the USA with the "National Fuel Gas Code",
ANSI Z223.1, latest edition, and, in Canada, with CAN/CGA - B149.1, and CAN
CGA - B149.2, "Installation Code for Gas Burning Appliances".
All La Cornue appliances are fully assembled and equipped for use with the type of gas
shown on the rating plate of the appliance.
If no special instructions were mentioned upon ordering, the rotisserie is fitted with
orifice for natural gas.
Prior to installation, ensure that the local distribution conditions (type of gas
and gas pressure) are compatible with rating plate supplied on appliance.
The rotisserie is designed to operate at a manifold pressure of 5’’ of Water Column on
natural gas, or a manifold pressure of 11’’ of Water Column on LP gas (Propane).
If the rotisserie is to be used on LP gas, a qualified LP installer must convert it.
We recommend that the rotisserie be converted before installation.
For proper operation, the pressure of natural gas supplied to the regulator must be
between 6’’ and 10’’ of water column.
For LP gas, the pressure supplied must be between 12’’ and 13’’ of water column.
When checking for proper operation of the regulator, the inlet pressure must be at least
1’’ greater than the operating (manifold) pressure as given above.
The pressure regulator located at the inlet of the rotisserie manifold must remain in the
supply line regardless of whether natural or LP gas is being used.
A flexible metal appliance connector used to connect the rotisserie to the gas supply line
should have an I.D. of ½’’ and be 5 feet in length for ease of installation.
The outlet pressure of the gas regulator is factory set and must not be altered.
For the rotisserie the regulator and the pressure tap can be found at the bottom of the
rotisserie, behind the front cover.
Connect the Rotisserie to the Gas Supply
Shut off the main gas supply valve before disconnecting the old appliance and leave it
off until the new hook-up has been completed. Don’t forget to relight the pilot on
other gas appliances when you turn the gas back on (i.e. gas water heater).
Because hard piping restricts movement of the appliance, the use of a CSA International
certified flexible metal appliance connector is recommended unless local codes require
a hard piped connection.

Gas CONNECTIONS
Never use an old connector when installing a new appliance. If the hard piping method
is used, you must carefully align the pipe; the rotisserie cannot be moved after the
connection is made. To prevent gas leaks, put pipe joint compound on, or wrap pipe
thread tape with yellow Teflon* around, all male (external) pipe threads.
*Teflon: Registered trademark of DuPont
NOTE: if joint compound is used compound must be neutral to the action of LP gas.
Install a manual gas line shut-off valve in the gas line in an easily accessed location
outside of the appliance. Make sure everyone operating the appliance knows where and
how to shut off the gas supply to the appliance.
Connect flexible metal appliance connector to the gas inlet of the rotisserie. Position
rotisserie to permit connection at the shut-off valve.
When all connections have been made, make sure all rotisserie controls are in the off
position and then turn on the main gas supply valve.
Use a liquid leak detector at all joints and connections to check for leaks in the system.
Use a product specifically manufactured for leak detection. Leak testing of the appliance
shall be conducted in accordance to the manufacturer’s instructions.
NOTE: do not use open flame to check for gas leaks.
Do not route the hose, at the back, in front of or near a hot air outlet from the
rotisserie or any other heat source.
The hose must not be pinched or kinked.
LLAACCOORRNNUUEE IInnssttaallllaattiioonngguuiiddeeBBrroocchheeFFllaammbbeerrggeePage 1177
The appliance must be connected to the type of gas shown on the rating plate of the
appliance.
The gas supply line must be at least a 1/2 inch pipe.
On all pipe joints use sealing compound that does not react to LP gas.
Check gas leaks by using a liquid leak detector.
Do not use an open flame
INSTALLER
Leave this manual with the appliance and advise
the customer to keep it for future reference.
Inform the consumer of the location of the
gas shut-off valve.
NOTE : Propane gas cylinders must never be

FUNCTIONING Ignition, Operation
The gas model of the Broche Flamberge includes a safety valve with a thermocouple: if
the burner goes off accidentally, gas supply will be cut off automatically after a few
seconds.
To ignite the gas burner: press the control knob (left side) and rotate it counter
clockwise, to the "big flame" position. The gas at the burner ignites automatically. Keep
the knob pressed in for 10 to 15 seconds, or longer if necessary (up to 30 seconds on
new equipment); then release the knob burner should stay on.
The sparking noise means that the ignition system is operating normally.
- Low setting: this is achieved by rotating the knob fully counter clockwise (small
flame).
- Shutoff: bring the knob back to its vertical position by rotating it to the right.
If the burner flame goes out, wait 1 - 2 minutes and repeat the above procedure but
keep the knob pressed down for a few more seconds (when the system is new, it takes
a little longer for safety devices to function normally).
Release the knob.
Rotate knob to the "HIGH" position. You will need to preheat 5 to 10 minutes before
you place the food to be cooked.
Lift the switch on the right-hand side (position 1
“ON”) of the rotisserie to start driving the motor.
Position 0 - “OFF”.
The Flamberge is equipped with three rod holders.
Insert tip of the rod into one of rod holders depen-
ding on type of food to be broiled.
It is recommended to center the roasts on the rod.
You can use the 3 cooking levels independently and
vary the cooking temperature by more or less dis-
tancing the roast from the heat source.

The rods position can be adjusted in order to increase/reduce the distance between the
burner/radiant cast-iron back and the rods:
In order to increase the distance between the burner/radiant cast-iron back and the
rods: pull the rod support - this position is generally adequate for large joints of meat
or poultry on one main rod.
In order to reduce the distance between the burner/radiant cast-iron back and the
rods: push the rod support toward the burner/radiant cast-iron back.
Warning: the rod supports are very hot - always use oven gloves or oven mitts.
Rod should not be loaded with more than 22 lbs (10 kg)
All types of meat that can be put on a spit, such as chicken, turkey, duck, hare, etc…
should be supported by flat rod. Secure the meat with the forks supplied to that end.
For red meat, or sides that are difficult to balance on the rod, use the English rod.
White meat, such as poultry, veal, pork, can be placed in the rotisserie without prehea-
ting it.
For red meat, such as joints of beef or lamb, it is recommended to preheat the
rotisserie for about 5 - 10 minutes, before placing the roast. This will ensure that the
outside of the meat will be properly sealed.
