LEAK TESTING
5
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.
TO TEST FOR LEAKS:
1. Prepare a soap solution of one part water, one part liquid
detergent.
2. Extinguish any open flame or cigarettes in the area.
3. Make sure that gas grill valves are “OFF.”
4. Make sure that cylinder valve is “OFF.”
5. With a full gas cylinder, open cylinder valve slowly.
6. Brush the soap solution on each connection.
7. A leak is identified by a flow of bubbles from the area of the
leak.
8. If a leak is detected, close the gas cylinder valve or the gas
supply valve, tighten the connection and retest.
9. If the leak persists, contact your gas grill dealer for assistance.
Do not attempt to operate appliance if a leak is present.
If your gas grill is equipped with a side burner or rear
burner:
1. Follow steps 1 - 5 above
2. Place fingertip over the opening in the orifice at the end of
hose.
3. Turn “SIDE”/”REAR” control to “HIGH.”
4. Brush soap solution on each connection between orifice and
control valve.
5. Turn “SIDE”/”REAR” control to “OFF”.
