X Always close the gas isolator tap when the external gas connection is not
being used.
X Only gas appliances with a suitable adapter should be connected to the
external gas connection.
X Connect only external gas appliances which are designed for an operation
pressure of 30 mbar.
X Ensure that gas does not escape at the connection point after connecting
and after the gas isolator tap has been opened. If there is a leak in the
external gas connection, gas will escape into the open air. Immediately close
the gas isolator tap and the main regulator tap on the gas bottle. Have the
external gas connection checked by an authorised specialist workshop.
X When connecting an external gas appliance, make sure that there is nothing
near the external gas connection that could cause a spark.
X Do not use the external gas connection to fill gas bottles. Observe the infor-
mation stickers on the external gas connection.
