Check all connections for LP Gas Leaks

Never test for leaks with a flame. Prior to first use, at the beginning of each season, or every time your LP Gas tank is changed, you must check for gas leaks. Follow these three steps:

[] Make a soap solution by mixing one part liquid

detergent and one part water.

[] Turn the grill Control Knobs to the full OFF position, then turn the gas ON at source.

[] Apply the soap solution to all gas connections

indicated by the arrows. See diagram. If bubbles appear in the soap solution the

connections are not properly sealed. Check each fitting and tighten or repair as necessary.

Never disconnect the gas regulator or any gas fitting while your grill is lit. A lit grill can ignite leaking gas and cause a fire or explosion which

could result in property damage, personal injury or death.
