To be able to cook in the Beach Hostel, you have to open the gas cylinder and the gas safety lever. The gas bottle is located in a compartment behind the driver' seat.
To cook:
- To be able to use the burner, you first have to remove the black cover underneath the kitchen unit behind the driver‘s seat and turn the gas bottle (1.8kg) on the brass-colored control to +.
- In addition, the second valve to the left of the gas bottle (in the storage compartment) must be set vertically positioned.
- Pull the silver bar behind the driver' seat forwards and upwards to bring the kitchen unit into a horizontal position.
- Then push down the black knob on the stove top, turn to a high setting and press the ignition button.
Caution: Make sure to close the gas bottle before driving!
See a brief video here:
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 gas can escape from the stove.
It is quite normal to smell a slight odor of gas before the stove ignites.
