WHAT IS A LEAK CHECK?

is escaping from any of the
connections or fittings.
Although all factory-made
connections have been
thoroughly checked for
gas leaks, it's important to
perform a leak check before
using your barbecue for the
first time, as well as anytime
you disconnect and reconnect
a fitting and each time you
perform routine maintenance.
