2.Always connect the gas supply hose first and then open the gas shutoff valve.

3.Always use a brush or spray bottle to apply a 50/50 solution of liquid soap and water to all connection points (see Fig. 5) to test for gas leaks. Never use a match or open flame for that purpose.

4.Always look for bubbles to appear, as the appearance of bubbles will indicate a gas leak. Always turn off the gas immediately and tighten the connection, if you find that a leak exists.
