OVERALL DIMENSIONS

Appliance specifications can be found on the data label attached to the side panel of the barbecue body.

SPECIFICATIONS

This appliance is certified to AS 4557 by the Australian Gas Association.

Barbecues must be used in accordance with the installation requirements of your local gas supply authority, and the appropriate installation standard AS5601.

GAS INSTALLATION CODES

Barbecues for use with bottled gas are labelled ‘Universal LPG’ or ‘Propane’. Barbecues for use with natural gas are labelled ‘Natural Gas’ and must be installed by an authorised person. Check the gas type sticker attached to the barbecue. Check that the label matches the gas type to be used.

Your barbecue is preset at the factory to operate on bottled

gas only, unless specified otherwise.

The regulator and hose assembly supplied with the barbecue are suitable for use with bottled gas.

This regulator is adjusted to have an outlet pressure of

2.75 kPa for connection to a gas cylinder only. 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. Also, take care to avoid a loose connection with the gas cylinder. After the assembly has been secured, turn on the gas and check for leaks by brushing a liquid detergent and water solution over all visible and accessible gas line connections. Include checking those connections which were made by your supplier. 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 connections, 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 assembly when exchanging the gas cylinder, or at least once a year, whichever is more frequent. If the ‘O-Ring’ or PVC hose is cracked, cut, abraded or damaged in any way, the appliance must not be operated. The complete assembly must be replaced if damaged and when statutory conditions require it. Contact your place of purchase if uncertain.
