How to perform a leak test

WARNING! Never use an open flame to test for gas leaks.

1)Mix one cup of water with one cup of dish washing liquid.

2)Confirm that all control knobs on the control panel are in the off position.

3)Remove control knobs and the three retaining screws at the bottom of the control panel.

4)Remove front control panel cover.

5)Open valve on LP gas cylinder (Turn counter- clockwise).

6)Check for leaks by brushing the soap solution on all LP gas connections and fittings. Make sure you generously brush the seven locations with the soap solution, completely surrounding the connections and fittings (See diagram below.)

7)If “growing” bubbles appear on any of the connection points, then you have detected a gas leak. Immediately close the LP cylinder valve.

A)If leak appears at either end of hose and regulator assembly, retighten the connection at the leak, but do not overtighten. (Note: Only hand tighten at coupling nut) (See Step 10 of Assembly Instructions) Repeat Leak Test.

B)If the leak is coming from the LP gas cylinder, from the valves at the control knobs, or if the leak cannot be stopped, do not use the grill. Call Customer Service at 1-800-251-7558.

8)Always turn off LP cylinder valve after performing a leak test. (Turn clockwise to a full stop.)

9)If your LP gas grill has been in storage or has not been used for a period of time, the burners should be maintained. See Burner Maintenance in the Care and Maintenance section of this manual.
