Gas Installation Codes
• Barbecues must be used in accordance with the
installation requirements of your gas supply
authority, or the Australian Standard AS 5601.
• Barbecues for use with bottled gas are labelled
‘propane gas’.
• 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.
Clearances
Minimum Clearances from combustible materials
must be:
Rear - 600mm & Sides - 600mm
Hose & Regulator Safety
The regulator and hose assembly supplied with
the barbecue are suitable for propane gas only. A
gas regulator adjusted to have an outlet pressure
of 2.75kPA is supplied for connection to the
propane gas cylinder. The pressure regulator and
hose assembly supplied with the barbecue must
be used. Replacement pressure regulators and
hose assemblies must be those specified by the
barbecue manufacturer.
When connecting the hose and regulator assembly
to the gas cylinder, take care to avoid unnecessary
twisting or kinking 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 connections.
If you are unable to correct the leak by tightening
the connections, turn off the gas and contact the
supplier immediately.
Always ensure the barbecue 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.
Specifications
Barbecue specifications can be found on the
data label attached to the door panel or the
barbecue body. Hose connection thread at gas
inlet is 1/4” - BSP.

used with the hose and regulator supplied. Your
