LEAK TEST
WARNING:
CHECK ALL GAS SUPPLY FITTINGS FOR LEAKS BEFORE EACH USE. DO NOT USE THE GRILL UNTIL ALL
CONNECTIONS HAVE BEEN CHECKED AND DO NOT LEAK. DO NOT SMOKE WHILE LEAK-TESTING. NEVER
LEAK-TEST WITH AN OPEN FLAME.
GENERAL
Although gas connections on the grill are leak-tested prior to shipment, a complete leak test must be performed at the
installation site. Before each use, check all gas connections for leaks using the procedures listed below. If the smell of gas is
detected at any time, you should immediately check the entire system for leaks.
BEFORE TESTING
Make sure all packing materials have been removed from the grill, including the burner tie-down straps.

STEP 1
CREATE THE SOAPY WATER
Prepare a 50/50 solution of water and ammonia-free dish
detergent, to be applied using a spray bottle or brush.
STEP 2
CONNECTING THE LIQUID PROPANE CYLINDER
The cylinder valve should be in the CLOSED position. If not, turn
the valve clockwise until it stops.
Make sure the cylinder valve has the proper type-1 external
male thread connections per latest ANSI Z21.81 standard.
Make sure the burner valves are in the "OFF" () position.
Inspect the valve connections and regulator assembly.
Remove debris and inspect the hose for damage. When
connecting the regulator assembly to the valve, use your hand
to tighten the nut clockwise until it stops. Use of a wrench could
damage the quick-coupling nut and result in a hazardous
situation. Open the cylinder valve fully by turning the valve
counterclockwise.
