FAQs
What type of gas regulator do I need?
This BBQ typically requires a standard propane regulator (usually 27mm clip-on for UK). Always check the product manual or consult your gas supplier for specific recommendations.
How do I switch between gas and charcoal cooking?
To use charcoal, remove the grates and place the included charcoal basket into the bottom of the BBQ. Fill with charcoal, light, and once the coals are ready, replace the grates. For gas, ensure the charcoal basket is removed and the gas burners are used as normal.
Is the chopping board dishwasher safe?
The removable chopping board is designed for convenience and should be washed by hand with warm, soapy water. Avoid placing it in a dishwasher, as this may damage the material.
What is the warranty period for the Outback Jupiter BBQ?
The Outback Jupiter BBQ comes with a 5-year guarantee.
Can I use this BBQ on a patio or deck?
Yes, the BBQ is designed for outdoor use. Ensure it is placed on a stable, level surface away from flammable materials. The lockable castors help secure it in place.
How often should I clean the burners?
It is recommended to inspect the burners for debris before each use and clean them gently as needed. A more thorough cleaning can be done seasonally or if you notice performance issues.
Troubleshooting
BBQ not igniting
Check gas cylinder connection and ensure the valve is open. Verify the igniter battery is functional (if applicable) or manually light with a long match. Ensure burner ports are clear of debris.
Uneven heat distribution
Ensure the BBQ is level. Check for any obstructions in the gas burners. Clean the burner ports and ensure the heat deflectors are correctly positioned.
Charcoal basket not fitting correctly
Ensure you are using the correct position for the charcoal basket as per the manual. Check for any bent components that might be hindering its placement.
Side burner not lighting
Check the gas supply to the side burner. Ensure the burner cap is seated correctly and the igniter electrode is clean and properly aligned.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Before initial use, assemble the BBQ following the manufacturer's instructions. Ensure all connections are secure, especially for the gas supply. It is recommended to have two people for assembly due to the weight and size.
Compatibility: This BBQ uses standard propane gas cylinders. Ensure your gas hose and regulator are compatible and in good condition. For hybrid cooking, a standard bag of charcoal briquettes or lump charcoal is required.
Care:
- Cleaning the Hood: Wipe the porcelain enamel hood with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could scratch the surface.
- Grates: Clean the grill grates after each use while still warm. Use a stiff wire brush to remove food residue. For deeper cleaning, the grates can be removed and scrubbed.
- Burners: Periodically check the burner ports for blockages and clean them gently with a brush or a pin.
- Exterior: Clean the exterior surfaces with a damp cloth. The storage cabinet can be wiped down as needed.
- Covering: When not in use, it is advisable to cover the BBQ to protect it from the elements and prolong its lifespan. A suitable outdoor cover is recommended.
