The regulator and hose assembly supplied with the
barbecue is suitable for use with bottled gas.
A gas regulator adjusted to have an outlet pressure
of 2.75 kPa is supplied for connection to the gas cylinder.
The regulator and hose assembly supplied with the
appliance must be used. Replacement regulator and hose
assemblies must be those specified by the appliance
manufacturer.
When connecting the hose and regulator assembly to
the gas cylinder, take care to avoid unnecessary twisting
of the flexible hose. After the assembly has been secured,
turn on the gas and check for leaks by brushing a soap
and water solution over all visible and accessible gas line
connections. The presence of bubbles will indicate a gas
escape.
DO NOT TEST FOR GAS ESCAPES WITH AN
OPEN FLAME.
If you are unable to correct the leak by tightening the
connection, turn off the gas and contact your place of
purchase immediately.
Always ensure the appliance is kept away from
flammable materials and the gas cylinder clear of any
heat source.
When changing over from an empty gas cylinder to
a full one, make sure this procedure is carried out in a
flame free atmosphere.
Inspect the gas hose when replacing the gas cylinder,
or once a year whichever is more frequent. If the hose is
cracked, cut, abraded or damaged in any way, the
appliance must not be operated. The hose must be
replaced if damaged or when statutory conditions require
it. Contact your place of purchase if uncertain.
The POL fitting of the hose and regulator should be
disconnected from the gas cylinder valve when the
outdoor appliance is not in use.
Appliance specifications can be found on the data label
attached to the rear panel of the barbecue body.
SPECIFICATIONS
This barbecue is also certified for use on natural gas. It
must be converted and installed by a qualified person if

gas. Contact your place of purchase for advice in relation
to using your barbecue on natural gas, if not already
provided in natural gas specification.
