CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS
Before first use, at the beginning of each season, or every time your propane tank is changed, you must check for gas
leaks.
1) Make a soap solution by mixing one part liquid detergent and one part water.
2) Turn the grill control knobs O
FF.
3) Turn the gas on at the propane tank.
4) Apply the soap solution to all gas connections. If bubbles appear in the soap solution the connections are not
properly sealed. Check each fitting and tighten or repair as necessary.
If you have a gas leak that you cannot repair, turn off the gas at the source, disconnect the fuel line from your grill,
and call the Customer Service Helpline or your gas supplier for repair assistance.
5) Brush soapy solution onto propane tank in the areas indicated by the arrows, and look for growing bubbles on your
propane tank.
WARNING:
• Your grill must be leak tested outdoors in a well-ventilated area, away from ignition
sources such as gas-fired or electrical appliances. During the leak test, keep your grill
away from open flames or sparks.
• Do not smoke when checking for gas leaks. Do not use an open flame to check for gas
leaks.
CAUTION: Do not use household cleaning agents. Damage to gas assembly components can
result.
Note: The normal flow of gas through the regulator and hose assembly can create a humming
noise. A low volume of noise is perfectly normal and will not interfere with operation of the
grill. If the humming noise is loud and excessive you may need to purge air from the gas line or
reset the regulator excess gas flow device. This purging procedure should be done every time
a new propane gas tank is connected to your grill. For help call the Customer Service Helpline
for assistance.
WARNING: A strong gas smell, or the hissing sound of gas indicates a serious problem with
your grill or the propane gas tank. Failure to immediately follow the steps listed below could
result in a fire or explosion that could cause serious bodily injury, death, or property damage.
• Shut off the gas supply to the grill.
• Turn the control knobs to the OFF position.
• Put out any flame with a fire extinguisher.
• Open the grill lid.
• Get away from the LP gas tank.
• Do not try to fix the problem yourself.
• If odor continues or you have a fire you cannot extinguish, call your fire department.
Do not call near the propane tank because your telephone is an electrical device and could
create a spark resulting in fire and/ or explosion.
