10 LANDMANNDanger "Gas displaces oxygen"Liquid gas is heavier than oxygen. Therefore it settles on the ground and displaces the oxygenat that level.Possible consequences:• Suffocation resulting from a lack of oxygen if the gas concentration is allowed to increasesufficiently.•Safety measures:• Only use the barbecue outdoors in a well ventilated area and above ground (i.e. not inareas that are below ground level).• Close the valve on the gas cylinder immediately after each use (turn the valve clockwise).• Never leave the barbecue unattended. If the flame extinguishes, relight it immediatelyor cut off the supply from the gas cylinder.• Before each use, make sure that all gas connections are sealed and intact. Even thesmallest of leaks can be dangerous.If necessary, replace the hose in order to comply with the corresponding national re-quirements.The barbecue must not be used if the connections for the gas supply are porous or faulty.If the barbecue is not being used for a prolonged period, cut off the supply from the gascylinder and store properly:– Fit the gas cylinder valve with a cap nut and safety cap.– Do not store the gas cylinder in rooms below ground level, in or near stairways,hallways or passages and thoroughfares between buildings.– Always store gas cylinders upright, even if they are empty!
