To change the gas bottle (11 kg), several steps must be followed to ensure safe handling:
- Set the shut-off valves in the drawer in the kitchen vertically to close them.
- Go to the boot and open the gas compartment on the left-hand side:
-
If the bottle is empty, close it anyway at the brass-coloured valve.
- Unscrew the connector from the gas bottle by hand (note: left-hand thread).
- Loosen the straps around the gas bottle.
- Take the bottle out of the compartment and replace it with a full one.
- Securely fasten the bottle again with the straps.
- Screw the connector onto the gas bottle by hand (attention: left-hand thread).
Attention
- Do not use any tools to screw the connector onto the gas bottle, otherwise it may not be possible to unscrew it!
-
Be sure to close the shut-off cocks and the gas bottles while driving!
-
Please also note that for safety reasons the gas compartment must not be used as a storage space.
Please note that bottles purchased outside Germany may require an adapter. Here you will find all possible adapters and information about gas suppliers abroad.
