G. Gas and Regulator
This barbecue can run on butane or propane LPG (liquid petroleum gas) bottled gas. Butane gas is normally supplied in blue bottles. Propane gas is supplied under a number of different names and bottle colours. Butane gas is suitable for your barbecue in normal use but you may notice a decrease in performance when the gas temperature
starts to fall below +10 degrees Celsius. If this happens we recommend propane gas is used. If in doubt, please consult your gas dealer/distributor. The gas bottle should never be stood on the trolley base or placed directly under the barbecue. Do not use or store a gas bottle on its side.
For optimal performance, we suggest the following:
Model | Butane Minimum | Propane Minimum |
| Bottle Size | Bottle Size |

Outback® | 6kg | 3.9kg |

Suitable regulators for butane must have an outlet pressure of 28mbar. For propane, the regulator must
have an outlet pressure of 37mbar. YOU MUST HAVE THE PROPER REGULATOR AND BOTTLE IN ORDER FOR THE BARBECUE TO OPERATE SAFELY AND EFFICIENTLY. USE OF AN INCORRECT OR FAULTY REGULATOR IS DANGEROUS AND WILL INVALIDATE ANY
WARRANTY. If in doubt, please consult your gas dealer/distributor.

H2. Precautions
Do not obstruct any ventilation openings in the barbecue body. Position the gas supply bottle on level ground next to the barbecue and safely away from any source of heat. Should you need to 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. Inspect the gas hose to ensure it is free of any twisting or tension. The hose should hang freely with no bends, folds, or kinks that could obstruct free flow of gas. Apart from the connection point, no part of the hose should touch any hot barbecue parts. Always inspect the hose for cuts, cracks, or excessive wear before use. If the hose is damaged, it must be replaced with hose suitable for use with LPG and meet the national standards for the country of use. The length of the hose shall not exceed 1.5m.
