Watch for Bubbles
Step 1
Assemble stove per "Assembly Instructions" on page 3 of this manual. Make sure burner control knob is in "OFF" position.
Step 2
Prepare a soapy water solution (one part dishwashing liquid to three parts water) to test for gas leaks in the connection. Apply a generous amount of the soapy mixture to the propane cylinder and stove fitting (located underneath stove).
Step 3
With the burner control knob in the "OFF" position, check for bubbles where propane canister attaches to stove fitting. If soapy mixture starts bubbling, gas is leaking through the connection. Disconnect the propane canister. Retighten the connection that is leaking gas. Repeat procedure with soapy mixture until gas no longer leaks. NEVER USE A FLAME TO CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS.
Step 4
Once all gas leaks have been sealed, WAIT AT LEAST 5 MINUTES FOR GAS FUMES TO DISSIPATE BEFORE LIGHTING THE BURNER.
Carefully follow "Operating Instructions" to light the burner and properly operate this unit.
