LEAK TESTING

All factory-made connections have been carefully tested for

gas leaks. However, shipping and handling may have

loosened a gas fitting.

AS A SAFETY PRECAUTION:

• Test all fittings for leaks before using your gas grill

• Test for leaks every time you disconnect and

reconnect a gas fitting, at least once per year or

after any period of nonuse

• Do not smoke while testing

• Never test for leaks with a lit match or open flame.

• Test for leaks outdoors

1. Prepare a soap solution of one part water, one part

liquid detergent.

4. Make sure that cylinder valve or the gas supply valve is

“OFF.”

5. With a full gas cylinder, open cylinder valve slowly. Or

open gas supply valve.

assistance. Do not attempt to operate appliance if a leak
