Fixing A Fuel Leak

• If you detect a leak:

1.Turn off the fuel supply. Push in and turn on the control knobs to release pressure in the hose, then turn the control knobs back to off.

2.Wash off soapy solutions with cold water and towel dry.

3.Stop a leak by tightening the loose joint, or by replacing the faulty part with a replacement part recommended by Coleman. DO NOT attempt to repair the cylinder valve if it should become damaged; the cylinder MUST be replaced.

4.If you are unable to stop a leak, shut off the gas supply at the cylinder valve. Remove the cylinder from the grill. Call a gas appliance serviceman or L.P. gas dealer. DO NOT use grill until the leak is corrected.

• When to test for leaks:

1.Perform a leak test each time the gas supply cylinder is connected to the regulator. Leak test anytime a part of the gas system is replaced.

2.Perform a leak test at least once each year whether the L.P. gas supply cylinder has been disconnected or not.

3.Have a dealer check the cylinder for deterioration after 12 years, according to DOT regulations. Immediately replace the cylinder if any deterioration is found.

CAUTION

Inspect the gas supply hoses before each use. Open the door to inspect the hose assembly below the grill. Also inspect the hose assembly below the side burner. If there are cuts, damage, excessive abrasion or wear, replace the hoses prior to operating the appliance. During assembly of the grill and when attaching or replacing the L. P. gas cylinder, insure that all gas supply hoses are free of kinks and/or damage and are at least 3 inches away from hot surfaces such as the grill housing. Use only hose replacements specified in the parts list.
