MATADOR INSTRUCTION MANUAL 25
CONNECTION TO LPG
GAS LEAK TESTING
Gas leak testing, mentioned earlier in the manual, must be done the first time you
connect up the BBQ, and whenever the LPG cylinder is re-connected to the BBQ.
Always inspect the hose at regular intervals to check for cracks or abrasion.
CONNECTING THE LPG CYLINDER
Connect the regulator to the LPG cylinder and tighten the connection. The two
types of connections can be seen below.
Turn the gas on at the cylinder, or make sure gas is available to the BBQ, but
do not turn the burners on. This fills the gas lines with gas. Now brush or pour
some soapy water onto all connections. If there is a leak, bubbles should appear
within about 20 seconds. If you find any leaks, tighten the connection and
repeat the leak test. If the leaks persist, contact your place of purchase.
WARNINGS
DO NOT USE NAKED FLAME FOR LOCATING GAS LEAKS
IF A LEAK PERSISTS, CALL AND AUTHORISED PERSON
DO NOT USE THIS BBQ UNLESS ALL CONNECTIONS ARE GASTIGHT
In the case of a problem arising with the hose and regulator please contact your
BBQ supplier for a list of approved replacement parts.
