WHAT IS A LEAK CHECK?
The fuel system in your
barbecue features connections
and fittings. A leak check is a
reliable way to make sure that
no gas 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.
Safety must be considered when you are
deciding where to place and operate your
barbecue. Be sure to read the following
warnings before installing or using your
barbecue.
WARNINGS:
m Only use this barbecue outdoors in a
well-ventilated area. Do not use in a
garage, building, breezeway or any other
enclosed area.
m Your gas barbecue shall not be used
beneath overhead combustible
construction.
m Your gas barbecue is not intended to be
installed in or on recreational vehicles
and/or boats.
m Do not use the barbecue within 61 cm
(24 in) of combustible materials. This
includes the top, bottom, back or sides of

m Keep the cooking area clear of
flammable vapors and liquids such as
gasoline, alcohol, etc., and combustible
materials.
m The entire cookbox gets hot when in use.
