To be absolutely certain that the gas connections are in
order, you can check the appliance for gas leaks before
each use. See "7. Checking for gas leaks".
8.2. Before first use (or after a lengthy period out of use)
If you are using the appliance for the first time or after a lengthy
period out of use, you must carry out some additional checks:
• Ensure that you have read all of the instructions in this
guide, understood them, and checked them (before first use
only).
• Check the appliance for gas leaks. See "7. Checking for gas
leaks".
Check that there are no gas leaks if the appliance has
been assembled by the supplier.
• Clean the burners and venturi tubes (only after a lengthy
period out of use). See "11.3 Cleaning the burners and
venturi tubes".
• Allow the appliance to "burn in" before placing any food
on the grill (only before first use). See "8.3 Burning in the
appliance".
8.3. Burning in the appliance
Burning in the appliance before first use helps to remove any
manufacturing greases that may still be present. Proceed as
follows:
1. Ignite the main burners and set the control knobs to HIGH.
See "9.2 Igniting the main burners".
2. Close the lid and allow the appliance to burn for 15 minutes.
Do not put any food on the grill yet.
3. After 15 minutes, open the lid and let the appliance burn for
a further 5 minutes (control knobs still set to HIGH).
4. After these 5 minutes, the appliance is ready for use and you
can place food on the grill.

IGNITING THE BURNERS
To ignite the burners with the electric igniter, you must
insert an AA battery into the igniter. The battery is not
supplied with the appliance. The battery compartment
for the igniter is located on the control panel for the
appliance.
9.1. Safety instructions
• Before igniting the appliance, carry out all checks as
specified in "8. Preparing the appliance for use".
• Ensure that the lid is open whenever you ignite a burner.
• Never bend directly over a burner when igniting it.
9.2. Igniting the main burners
9.2.1 Using the igniter
1. Open the lid and set the control knobs for the main burners
to OFF.
2. If no other burner has yet been ignited, open the gas supply
and wait for ten seconds for the gas to stabilize.
3. Press the control knob for a burner, set it to HIGH, and leave
it in place. The in-built igniter will create sparks, which will
ignite the burner.
Start by igniting one main burner first. Never ignite all
main burners at the same time.
4. If the burner does not ignite after three attempts, set the
control knob for the burner to OFF, close the gas supply, and
wait for 5 minutes to allow the accumulated gas to escape.
5. Attempt to ignite the burner again. If it still does not ignite,
attempt to ignite the burner with a match or consult "14.
Rectifying problems" in order to identify the cause of the
problem.
9.2.2 Using a match
1. Place a match in the match holder.
2. Open the lid and set the control knobs for the main burners
to OFF.
3. If no other burner has yet been ignited, open the gas supply
and wait for ten seconds for the gas to stabilize.
4. Strike the match and hold it around 13 mm away from the
burner.
5. Set the control knob for one burner to HIGH.
Start by igniting one main burner first. Never ignite all
main burners at the same time.
6. If the burner does not ignite within 5 seconds, set the control
knob for the burner to OFF, close the gas supply, and wait
for 5 minutes to allow the accumulated gas to escape.
7. Attempt to ignite the burner again. If this does not work,
consult "14. Rectifying problems" in order to identify the
cause of the problem.
8. If one burner has been ignited, you can ignite the other
burners by setting the relevant control knobs to HIGH.
9.3. Igniting the side burner
The side burner can only hold pans with a maximum
weight of 9 kg and a maximum diameter of 220 mm.
The lid on the side burner must remain open when the
side burner is in use.
9.3.1 Using the igniter
1. Open the lid and set the control knob for the side burner to
OFF.
2. If no other burner has yet been ignited, open the gas supply
and wait for ten seconds for the gas to stabilize.
3. Press the control knob for the side burner, set it to HIGH,
and leave it in place. The in-built igniter will create sparks,
which will ignite the side burner.
4. If the burner does not ignite after three attempts, set the
control knob for the burner to OFF, close the gas supply, and
wait for 5 minutes to allow the accumulated gas to escape.
5. Attempt to ignite the side burner again. If it still does not
ignite, attempt to ignite the burner with a match or consult
"14. Rectifying problems" in order to identify the cause of the
problem.
