exceed 150 cm. Both regulator and hose must also comply with national regulations. Replace the hose
according to national regulations. Avoid twisting the hose.
Always read the manual regarding the regulator and hose.
Never leave the regulator attached to the gas cylinder if disconnected from the gas hose.
1. How to connect your gas grill to a gas cylinder depends on which model you have purchased.
Please read the instructions below for your Asado Gas Grill model.
Asado Gas Grill (651065):
To be able to use your gas grill you will need to purchase an LPG gas cylinder, a regulator and a hose.
The type of gas can be butane or propane. The regulator needs to fit the chosen gas cylinder and deliver
a supply pressure of 28-30mbar if the gas is butane. 30 or 37 mbar if the gas is propane. The hose needs
to fit the regulator as well as the gas grill. The gas grill can be used with either ¼” LH thread, 8mm ID or
10/11mm ID.
a) If your hose has an internal diameter of 8 mm, push the hose over the first ribbed half of the
removable hose stud (parts list, item16). Thread the hose and stud onto the gas inlet connection.
b) If your hose has an internal diameter of 10/11 mm, push the hose all the way over the ripped part of
the removable .hose stud (parts list, item 16). Thread the hose and stud onto the gas inlet connection.
c) If your hose is equipped with a ¼“ left hand thread, thread the hose directly onto the gas inlet
connection.
The hose should be threaded hand tight plus a ¼ of a turn.

For Your Safety – If You Smell Gas
• If there is a leak on your appliance (smell of gas), turn off the gas supply and take it outside
immediately into a well-ventilated flame free location where the leak may be detected and stopped.
If you wish to check for leaks on your appliance, do it outside. Do not try to detect leaks using a flame,
use soapy water.
• If odour persists, stop using the appliance immediately and contact your dealer or gas supplier.
3. CHANGING THE GAS CYLINDER
• Turn off the unit completely. Be careful the gas appliance could be hot.
• The gas cylinder shall be changed in a well-ventilated location, preferably outside, away from any
sources of ignition, such as naked flames, pilots, electric fires and away from other people.
