9. Connection of gas supply
(The following instructions refer in the main to coolers manufactured for the
United Kingdom. For other countries please refer to your supplier).
Always connect in the following sequence:
GAS BOTTLE
→→
PRESSURE-REGULATOR
→→
APPLIANCE.
To connect the appliance to the pressure-regulator an APPROVED FLEXIBLE
GAS TUBE must be used. This must not be longer than 1,5 m - and should have
an inside dimension of 8 mm. The flexible gas tube must not be twisted!
The pressure-regulator must be compatible for Butan (28mbar) or for Propane
(37mbar).
To connect the pressure-regulator to the gas bottle, the valve of gas bottle must be
closed.After connecting the pressure-regulator to the bottle by screwing,connect
the two ends of the tubing to the nipples and secure them with the two hose clipse.
When fitting the connection to the gas inlet of the appliance, hold counterpart to
avoid straining and possibly damaging.
The gas bottle must only be used in an upright position and particular care must
be taken every time the appliance is connected to the gas bottle to ensure that
there are no leaks, that the gas pipe (rubber hose) is not under tension or
kinked, and that it is not in contact with hot surfaces.
It must be regularly changed if it is determinated in the standard of your country.
The connection pipe and gas bottle should always be located in positions where
they will not be tripped over or otherwise inadvertently disturbed.
Before attempting to light the burner, every time after connection, turn on the gas
at the bottle and check the gas connections for leaks by applying a soap and
water solution over them and watching for bubbles, which would indicate a leak.
After testing dry off traces of detergent.
For your safety
Do not check for leaks with a naked flame!
Do not smoke while checking for leaks!
10. Gas equipment (Fig. 1.)
This consists of a gas/electric thermostat knob (C) with built-in safety pilot, a
burner with igniter plug and a piezo-gas igniter (D), and a flame indicator
(galvanometer)(B).
If, for any reason the gas flame extinguishes the ignition control is working
automatically and shuts off gas supply.
11. Igniting the gas burner (Fig. 5.)
1. Energy selector switch (A) should be in position 'Gas'.
2. Open gas cylinder or pressure regulating valve.
