Using Your BBQ
LPG Safety Information
You will need to purchase a 9kg LPG cylinder to
operate this gas BBQ which can be obtained from
your nearest LPG dealer.
When ready to use your gas BBQ insert the
regulator into the LPG cylinder and tighten firmly.
Leak Testing
Perform a leak test at least once each year whether
the gas supply cylinder has been disconnected
or not. In addition, anytime the gas cylinder is
connected to the regulator or any part of the gas
system is disconnected or replaced, conduct a
leak test.
As a safety precaution, remember to always leak
test your BBQ outdoor in a well-ventilated area.
Never smoke or permit sources of ignition in the
area while doing a leak test. Do not use a flame,
such as a lighted match to test for leak. Use only
a leak testing solution as specified below.
Leak Testing Procedure
1. Prepare a leak testing solution of sudsy water
by mixing in a spray bottle half liquid soap
and half water.
2. Check and make sure all the control knobs are
in the OFF position
3. Turn cylinder valve knob counter clockwise
one turn to open.
4. Apply leak testing solution by spraying
on joints of the gas delivery system.
5. Blowing bubbles in the soap solution indicates
that a leak is present.
6. Stop a leak by tightening the loose joint or
by replacing the faulty part with a replacement
part recommended by the manufacturer. Do
not attempt to repair the cylinder valve if it
should become damaged. The cylinder must
be replaced.

appliance service technician or LPG dealer.

pressure in the hose and manifold.
9. Turn off the control knob.

Lighting instructions

Caution: The lid must be open when lighting the
burner. Do not stand with your face directly over
the gas grill when lighting it.
Pilot Gas Control Ignition:
With all gas controls on the BBQ in the 'OFF'
position, turn the gas cylinder valve to the on
position at the regulator. Each control knob has
its own igniter electrode built in. To create a spark
you must push the control knob in (A) and hold in
this position for 3-5 seconds to allow gas flow and
then turn anticlockwise to' HIGH' (B). It can spark
to the burner lighting tube (C). You will hear a
'snap' from the igniter and you will also see a
3'-5' orange flame coming from the burner
lighting tube at the left side of the burner (D).
Continue to hold the burner control knob in for
two seconds after the 'snap' , this will allow gas to
flow completely down the burner tube (E) and
insure ignition.
When the burner is alight, adjacent burners will
cross light when their controls are turned to
'HIGH' . At High setting the burner flame should
be approximately 12-20mm long with a minimum
of orange flame. Turn the gas control fully
anticlockwise for minimum setting.
Should you have any difficulty lighting your gas
grill following the above steps, contact your
dealer for advice.
When heating your bbq make sure that the rotisserie rod
is not in the BBQ - heating to such high temperatures can
melt the rod handles.
