Ensure that when the LPG stove is on, avoid contact of
materials to the open flame. Never leave craft unattended
when open flame LPG consuming appliances are in use.
System Leak Test
Prior to the boat leaving the factory, the LPG system is tested for any potential leaks. However,
Quicksilver® recommends that you test the system regularly. Test all connections for leakage by
means of the following:
1. Before each use, close appliance valves; open LPG cylinder valve; allow indicated gauge
pressure to stabilize; close LPG cylinder valve; observe pressure gauge reading near cylinder
valve for three minutes; pressure gauge reading should remain constant if no leak in the
system is present. IF PRESSURE GAUGE READING FALLS, LEAK IS PRESENT. DO NOT USE LPG
APPLIANCES.
2. Routine observation of bubble leak detector (if fitted on the system).
3. Manual leak testing with foam-producing, soapy water or detergent solutions (with appliance
burner valves closed and cylinder and system valves open); foam-producing solutions for leak
detection on gas installations in accordance with EN 14291 meet these requirements.
If a leak is present, close cylinder valve and have the system repaired before further use. Quicksilver®
recommends that any LPG system repairs should be made by your authorized Quicksilver® dealer.
