A leak test is used to determine the integrity of a seal. Before using your gas grill, perform a leak test on the connection between
the regulator and the gas cylinder to reduce the risk of serious bodily injury or death from fire or explosion. A leak test should be
performed a minimum of once a season, as well as:
• Before lighting your grill for the first time,
• Every time the gas cylinder has been changed,
• After travel, especially over rough or bumpy roads,
• After a prolonged period of storage or non-use.
Supplies Required:
1 x Bowl (
empty, clean
)
1 x Paint Brush (
clean
)
Dish Washing Liquid
Water
Procedure:
1. Position the grill in a well-ventilated area. Ensure the grill is cool to the touch, and not in use. Verify that the regulator
value is turned to the OFF position and that the gas cylinder is tightened securely to the regulator.
IMPORTANT: Ensure there is no open flame or smokers nearby.
2. Mix a solution of one part of water with one part of dish washing liquid in a bowl. The solution will make bubble,
as it will be concentrated.
3. Use a paint brush to apply the solution onto the seal between the regulator and the gas cylinder. Visually inspect for
streams of bubbles coming from a defect or break in the seal.
NOTE: If a leak appears, repeat gas cylinder installation procedure, but do not over-tighten. Hand-tighten
only. Repeat leak test after re-installation to ensure seal is secure.
IMPORTANT: Do not use the gas grill if you detect a gas leak that cannot be corrected by using the leak test
procedure. Contact your local Fire Department or Customer Service for alternative measures of testing to
ensure proper precaution.
1. Ensure the regulator valve on the grill is completely closed by turning the knob clockwise to the OFF position.
2. Turn the cylinder counter-clockwise (by hand) to disconnect from the regulator valve opening. Replace the protective caps
on the regulator valve opening and the top of the gas cylinder for storage (if not empty).
NOTE: If storing the grill indoors, leave the gas cylinder outdoors.
WARNING: Do not fold up or transport grill with gas cylinder attached. The cylinder may loosen off the
valve and cause a gas leak, possibly resulting in an explosion, fire, or severe bodily harm. Disconnect gas
cylinder first before travel or storage.
