Testing For Gas Leaks
Before attempting to operate this Grill:
•Always confirm that all burner control knobs are in the OFF position.
•Always connect the gas supply hose first, open lid and then open the gas shutoff valve.
ºAlways use a brush or spray bottle to apply a 50/50 solution of liquid soap and water to all connection points, to test for gas leaks. Never use a match or open flame for that purpose.
ºAlways look for bubbles to appear, as the appearance of bubbles will indicate a gas leak.
º Always turn off the gas immediately and tighten the connection, if you find that a leak has been detected.
ºBefore lighting the grill, always repeat this procedure until no further gas leaks are found.
ºIf a leak cannot be stopped, do not attempt to light the grill. Always contact a certified Natural Gas technician for assistance or the Centro Customer Care Hotline for assistance.
