and contained within the box as per the components list.
oGoldair suggests laying out all components on a large flat surface and
removing any plastic or protective material before assembling your BBQ.
oIf your BBQ has lockable castors ensure these are locked before attempting
to assemble otherwise the BBQ may move during assembling resulting in

BBQ
Please refer to your user manual for operating instructions, further information or
trouble shooting before you call the Customer Service number listed within the
user manual.
If your BBQ has any Stainless Steel please note the following:
Note: Stainless Steel will rust.
Failure to store with a BBQ cover, and to clean & maintain your BBQ regularly
will result in Stainless Steel ‘tea staining’ & rusting. Consequently it will not be
covered by the warranty.
Goldair recommends the use of stainless steel protectors & cleaners to also pro-
long the life of your BBQ.
Please refer to your user manual.

GAS LEAK TESTING
It is important that you leak test the BBQ before first use and every time the gas
cylinder is refilled and reconnected to the BBQ.
To complete a Leak Test:
•Make sure all the control knobs are OFF.
•In a small container, mix up a solution of water and detergent/soap.
Mix the solution well (about the same concentration as washing up water).
•Turn the cylinder ON by rotating the knob to the open position.
•Using a brush or spray bottle apply the soap solution to the gas line and each
join in the gas line including:
•The gas connection at the inlet of the BBQ
•The gas hose
•The gas connection at the gas cylinder
•If bubbles appear, there is a gas leak.
•If the leak is at the connection, re-tighten and re-seal.
•If the leak is anywhere else or you cannot resolve the leak by tightening the
connection DO NOT PROCEED.
•Replace gas hose and regulator.
•Replacement hose and regulators can be purchased from your local BBQ
retail specialist

Safety Guide
•Do not operate this BBQ before reading the instruction booklet
•Do not place articles on or against this BBQ
•Do not use or store flammable or combustible materials, chemicals or spray
aerosols near your BBQ
•Do not operate this BBQ indoors; the BBQ is for outdoor use only
•Do not obstruct any ventilation of the BBQ
•Do not light or operate with cover on
•Never store a spare LPG cylinder under or near your BBQ. This could cause
excess pressure to be expelled through the relief valve resulting in fire,
explosion, or severe personal injury including death
•LPG gas is heavier than air and will collect in low areas, proper ventilation is
extremely important
•Keep the ventilation opening of the LPG cylinder enclosure free and clear from
obstruction and debris
•Do not insert any foreign objects into the valve outlet. Damage may result,
causing a leak, possible explosion, fire, severe bodily harm or death
•Children and adults should be alerted to the hazards of high surface
temperature, burns and clothing ignition
•Never leave children unattended in the area where the BBQ is being used.
•Do not store items of interest to children around, below or in the shelf of the
BBQ
•Never allow children to sit or stand on any part of the BBQ
•Some users prefer cooking on Hotplates. You must always have at least 1 Grill
plate to ensure adequate air flow. Fully covering your BBQ will create a safety
hazard.

Safety Guide
A strong gas smell or hissing sound of escaping gas indicates a serious problem with the
BBQ or LPG cylinder. Failure to immediately follow the steps listed below could result in
a fire or explosion that could cause serious injury, death or property damage.
•Shut off gas supply at cylinder
•Turn the control knobs of the BBQ to the off position
•Extinguish any open flame
•Open the BBQ hood
•Get away from the LPG cylinder
•Do not try and fix the problem yourself
•If gas odour continues or you cannot extinguish fire, call fire brigade
To prevent fire and smoke damage, remove all packaging material before operating
BBQ.
HOSE ASSEMBLY AND SAFETY
A leak test (Procedure located on Page 2 of this manual) must be carried out prior to using
the BBQ for the first time and each time the gas cylinder is refilled, or each time the gas
hose and gas regulator have been disconnected. Check all gas hose and line
connections for damage, cuts or cracks each time you use the BBQ.
If the hose shows signs of deterioration or damage, complete a leak test to identify any
leaks and if required replace the hose.
The hose must remain free of kinks and sharp bends. Never puncture or put stress on
the hose or fittings. Hose connection is located at the lower front area on the right side
wall of the main body of the BBQ.
Replacement hose and regulators can be purchased from your local BBQ retail
specialist. Leak Test procedure is located on Page 2 of this manual.
BURNERS
The location of the tube burner to the jet is vital for safe operation. Check to assure the
jets are inside the burner tubes before using the gas BBQ
SPIDER AND INSECT WEBS
Some times spiders, ants and other insects
climb into the tube burners, gas lines and
other areas of the BBQ. The insects can spin
webs, build nests and lay eggs. The webs or
nests can be very small, but they are very
strong and can block the flow of gas.
NOTE: Complications arising from spider and insect webs built up inside gas
lines are expressly excluded from Warranty
To avoid this occurring, clean burners prior to use, after storing, at the beginning of
your BBQ season or after a period of one month with out use. Guards are on the air
intakes in an effort to reduce this problem, but it will not eliminate it.An obstruction
can result in a “flashback” (a fire in the burner tubes). The burner may still light, but
the obstruction does not allow full gas flow to the burners.

Step 16.
The BBQ is intended to be used with a standard 9kg LPG cylinder. This is the type of cylinder that
can be refilled at petrol station or swapped for similar cylinder.
Place the cylinder in position under the left hand side burner, so that the cylinder sits level on the
ground. Take the hose that came with the BBQ, check that it has a rubber seal on the regulator end
of the hose and connect this end to the gas cylinder, ensuring that the hose is not twisted. You
won’t need a spanner here. Just turn the fitting in an anti clockwise direction and hand tighten as
much as you can. This should seal it sufficiently.
It is important to conduct a leak test prior to use. Follow leak test procedure. (Procedure
located on Page 2 of this manual)
