Here you can find out how to cook in the Couple Cottage:
- Open the gas bottle in the right compartment of the boot. To turn the gas bottle on or off, turn the brass-coloured regulator at the top to + or -.
- Then also set the grey safety lever (pot symbol) in the kitchen to horizontal. This is located in the top drawer under the hob.
- Open both glass covers, as the heat when cooking could cause the cover at the sink to shatter. To ignite the gas hob, press the desired gas knob down and turn it on at the same time. You will then hear the igniter click.
Warning
After cooking and especially when driving, always close the shut-off valves and the gas bottle!
Please also note that for safety reasons, the gas compartment must not be used as storage space.

Lighting the gas stove can sometimes take several attempts and/or seconds.
This is because when the gas pipe is empty, it must first fill up completely before propane gas can escape from the stove.
It is quite normal to smell a slight odor of propane gas before the stove ignites.
Troubleshooting
You should hear a faint hissing sound from the gas and also be able to smell the gas. If this is not the case, check the gas flow thoroughly from start to finish:
- Is the gas bottle full? Lift or weigh it: a completely full bottle weighs about 23 kg, an empty bottle about 12 kg.
- Is the gas bottle open? Turn it at least 2 turns towards the "+".
- Has the hose rupture protection been vented? Some models have a black button directly on the bottle valve. Press it firmly – you will hear a metallic click and this will release the air from the line.
- Is the grey safety lever in the kitchen open? It should be pointing towards the gas line to be open. There is usually a sticker showing which position is open.
If you still do not hear the click despite working power, the electric igniter may be faulty. In this case, you can carefully ignite the gas at the hob ring with a lighter.
