Smeg BQ91S [13/19] Fitting and changing the battery

Instructions for the User

9. USING THE BARBECUE

9.1 Fitting and changing the battery

Some models in this product range have a compartment to take one 1.5 V AA

PENCIL battery to supply the burner ignition plugs.

To fit or change the battery, follow the instructions provided below, referring to

the diagram:

• remove the dripping pan;

• access the battery compartment through the opening in the front panel

(see diagram);

• unscrew the cap A and remove the seal B;

• replace the battery C with another of the same type;

• take care that the battery poles correspond (see diagram on the right);

• replace the seal B and screw the cap A back on.

If no spark appears when any burner control knob is pressed, the battery may need changing.

Caution: flat batteries must not be dumped at random or disposed of with other waste. They must be

collected separately and consigned to your local waste disposal company, or disposed of in the special

containers provided for old batteries.

If the battery is new and still no spark is produced, do not attempt to use the appliance and contact your

nearest authorised service centre.

If the barbecue is to be out of use for a long time, the battery must be removed to prevent possible

oxidation of its compartment.

9.2 Positioning the grids

On the rear of the barbecue, the grids can be set

at two different heights. These two levels allow

them to be set at different gradients to increase or

reduce the drainage of fats or liquids.

Level 2 is recommended when cooking

particularly fatty foods and level 1 for other foods.

Cooking can only be carried out with all the grids

fitted correctly. Any other configuration is a source

of hazard to the user and can compromise the

operation of the appliance as well as damaging its

exterior.

Before starting to cook, always check that the grids are correctly positioned.
