Warnings
Before proceeding, make certain that you understand the IMPORTANT INFORMATION section of this
manual.
Your barbecue is not designed to be used with more than 50% of the cooking area as a solid plate — this
includes baking dishes. Full coverage will cause excessive build-up of heat and damage the barbecue.
This is not covered by warranty.
Preparation Before Cooking
To prevent foods from sticking to the cooking surface, please use a long handled brush to apply a light coat of
cooking or vegetable oil before each barbecuing session. (Note: When cooking for the rst time, paint colours
may change slightly as a result. This is normal and should be expected.) During use, the protective coating
Selecting a Location
This barbecue is for outdoor use only and should be placed in a well-ventilated area, and on a safe and even
surface. Never place your barbecue below ground level. Take care to ensure that it is not placed UNDER any
combustible surface. The sides of the barbecue should NEVER be closer than 1 metre from any combustible
surface, including trees and fences and make sure that there are no heat sources near the barbecue (cigarettes,
open flames, spark etc.). Keep this barbecue away from any flammable materials!
Precautions
Do not obstruct any ventilation openings in the barbecue body.
Position the gas bottle on level ground next to the barbecue and safely away from any source of heat.
Should you need to install or change the gas bottle, confirm that the barbecue is switched off, and that there
are no sources of ignition (cigarettes, open flame, sparks, etc.) near before proceeding.
Connecting a Gas Hose to the Barbecue
Connect the gas hose to the gas rail inlet on the left hand side of the barbecue. Do not overtighten. Do not use
any sealing tape, paste or liquid on the connection.
Fixing a Regulator to the Gas Bottle
Confirm all barbecue control knobs are in the off position. Connect the regulator to the gas bottle according to
your regulator and bottle dealer’s instructions.
Leak Testing(Always perform a leak test in a well-ventilated area)
Confirm all control knobs are in the off position. Detach the barbecue control panel located across the front
of the barbecue body by pulling off the control knobs and removing the control panel retaining screws. Turn
the gas on / open the gas control valve on the gas bottle or regulator. Check for leaks by brushing a solution
of ½ water and ½ liquid detergent / soap over all the gas system joints, including all valve connections,
hose connections, and regulator connections. NEVER USE AN OPEN FLAME to test for leaks at any time. If
bubbles form over any of the joints, there is a leak. Turn off the gas supply at the gas bottle. Retighten all joints.
Repeat test. If bubbles form again, do not use the barbecue and contact your local distributor for assistance.
Always wipe the mixed solution (½ water and ½ liquid detergent / soap) from all joints and connections after
leak testing. Install the control panel back. Leak test annually, and whenever the gas bottle is removed or
replaced. Check that the hose connections are tight and leak test each time you reconnect the gas bottle.
WILL INVALIDATE ANY WARRANTY. Please consult your local gas dealer for the most suitable gas bottles
and regulators.
