Gas Supply Information
Your Sovereign BBQ is intended for connection to a reticulated gas supply (eg a gas system which
supplies other appliances, including gas refrigerators and gas water heaters for example). A reticulated
gas supply system should be supplied, installed and certified only by a qualified gas technician.
In the event that connecting your BBQ to a reticulated gas system is not preferred, please liase with a
qualified gas technician regarding suitable alternatives. If connecting your BBQ to a gas cylinder using a
gas hose and regulator, only Class B or Class D gas hoses are suitable and the connection fitting is to be
compatible with the BBQ gas inlet fitting described under the “Gas Connection” section in these
Installation and Operating Instructions. Additionally, ensure the regulator is the correct type as described
in the “Gas and Regulator Information” section in these Installation and Operating Instructions.
In any instance the gas technician is to complete the installation and test that the BBQ operates correctly
and safely. They are to also confirm the installation is in accordance with these Installation and
Operating Instructions and any governing regulations. The gas technician must also instruct the user on
the correct and safe operation of the BBQ.
General Precautions
Do not obstruct any of the ventilation openings in your Sovereign BBQ body.
Should you need to disconnect the appliance from the gas supply point, confirm that the BBQ is turned
off, and that there are no sources of ignition (cigarettes, open flame, sparks etc.) nearby before
proceeding. Disconnect any hose from the gas supply point only, and not from the appliance itself.
If the appliance is installed using a hose, be sure to inspect the gas supply hose each time the BBQ is used
and ensure it is free of any twisting or tension. The hose should hang freely with no bends, folds, or
kinks, which could obstruct free flow of gas. Apart from the connection point, no part of the hose should
touch any hot BBQ parts. Inspect the hose before each and every use of the appliance.
If the hose is damaged, it must be replaced with an approved hose to AS/NZS 1869 standards for use with
LPG and meet the national standards for the country of use. The length shall not exceed 1.5m.
