6. Important Information
Please read these instructions carefully before
assembly and use of your barbecue.
Retain these instructions for future reference.
This product is for outdoors use only. Do not use
indoors.
Do not use the barbecue or store gas bottles below
ground level. LP gas is heavier than air so if a leak
occurs the gas will collect at a low level and could
ignite in the presence of a flame or spark.
For use with LPG bottled gas only. A suitable
regulator must be used for butane, propane or mixes.
Remove plastic wrap from any part before lighting.
Do not use within 1m of any flammable structure or
surface. Do not use under any combustible surface.
LP gas bottles should never be placed directly
underneath the barbecue.
LP gas bottles should never be stored or used laid
on their side, in the horizontal position. A leak would
be very serious and liquid could enter the gas line
with serious result.
Never store gas bottles indoors.
Open the barbecue hood or lid before lighting.
Once lit, do not move the barbecue until it has
completely cooled, after use.
This barbecue must not be left unattended when lit.
The hood or lid handle can become very hot. Grip
only the centre of the handle. Always use oven
gloves when cooking or carrying out any adjustments
to the barbecue.
Use purpose designed barbecue tools with long, heat
resistant handles.
Use caution when opening the hood or lid, as hot
steam inside is released upon opening.
Parts of this barbecue become very hot – care must
be taken, especially when children, elderly people,
and animals are present.
Turn off the gas supply at the gas bottle after use.
Never cover a barbecue until it has completely
cooled.
Use this barbecue only on a stable, flat surface.
Before you use your barbecue, perform a leak test.
This is the only safe and sure way to detect any gas
leaking from joints and connections of the barbecue
after assembly.
Leak test annually, and whenever the gas bottle is
removed or replaced.

7. Gas, Regulator and Hose

This barbecue can use either propane or butane or
propane / butane mixed LPG (liquid petroleum gas)
bottled gas. Propane bottles, will supply gas all year
round, even on cold winter days. Butane bottles will
supply sufficient gas in summer, but it may affect the
performance of the barbecue and restrict the heat output
available from the burners, particularly once the gas
temperature starts to fall below +10°C. A spanner may
be required to change gas bottles. Check that you have
the correct gas bottle and regulator for your barbecue.
Ensure that the gas bottle is placed correctly in the gas
bottle holder provided.
• The hose should hang freely with no bends, twisting,
tension, folds, or kinks that could obstruct free flow of
gas. Always inspect the hose for cuts, cracks, or
excessive wear before use.
• Apart from the connection point, no part of the hose
should touch any hot barbecue parts. If the hose
shows any sign of damage it must be replaced with a
hose suitable for use with LP gas which meets the
national standards for the country of use.
• The length of hose should not exceed 1.5 metres.
N.B.-The date on the orange hose (if supplied) is the
date of manufacture, not the expiry date.
YOU MUST HAVE THE PROPER REGULATOR AND
BOTTLE IN ORDER FOR THE BARBECUE TO
OPERATE SAFELY AND EFFICIENTLY. USE OF AN
INCORRECT
OR
FAULTY
DANGEROUS
AND
WARRANTY. Please consult your local gas dealer for
the most suitable gas bottles and regulators.
