TO TEST
Make sure all control valves are in the “OFF” position.
Apply the soap solution described above to all fittings.
Turn the gas supply on.
Check all connections from the supply line, or LP cylinder up to and including the manifold
pipe assembly.
Soap bubbles will appear where a leak is present. If a leak is present, immediately turn off gas
supply, tighten any leaking fittings, turn the gas supply back on, and recheck.
If you cannot stop a gas leak, turn off the gas supply and call the dealer where you purchased
your grill.
Do not use the grill until all connections have been checked and do not leak.
IMPORTANT NOTE - ALWAYS CHECK FOR LEAKS AFTER EVERY LP CYLINDER CHANGE.
If a leak is present, or if there is evidence of excessive abrasion or wear, or the hose is cut, it must
be replaced before using the grill. The hose and LP regulator are supplied as a complete assembly
and must be replaced together. Do not attempt to repair or replace the hose itself. Contact your
Hestan dealer for genuine replacement P/N 014309.
Check all gas supply fittings for leaks before each use. It is handy to keep a spray bottle of soapy
water near the shut-off valve of the gas supply line. Spray all the fittings. Bubbles indicate leaks.
ELECTRICAL SUPPLY
Important: This appliance must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes, or in the
absence of local codes with the National Electrical Code,
ANSI/NFPA 70-1990
.
Appliances equipped with a flexible electrical supply cord are provided with a three-prong
grounding plug. It is imperative that this plug be connected to a properly grounded three-prong
receptacle. If the receptacle is not the proper grounding type, contact an electrician. Do not
remove the grounding prong from this plug.
The grill is designed for 120 volt AC power and must be plugged into a Ground Fault Circuit
Interrupter (GFCI) protected circuit. Do not connect the grill to the electrical supply until after
gas connections have been made and leak checks have been performed.
KEEP ANY ELECTRICAL CORD AND FUEL SUPPLY HOSE AWAY FROM ANY HEATED
SURFACES.
1. To protect against electric shock, do not immerse cord or plugs in water or other liquid.
2. Unplug from the outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool before putting
on or taking off parts.
3. Do not operate any outdoor cooking gas appliance with a damaged cord or plug, or after the
appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in any manner. Contact the manufacturer for
repair.
4. Do not let the cord hang over the edge of a table or touch hot surfaces.
5. Do not use an outdoor cooking gas appliance for purposes other than intended.
6. Use only a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) protected circuit with this outdoor
cooking gas appliance.
