Leak Testing Procedure

Perform a leak test at least once a year whether the gas supply cylinder
has been disconnected or not. In addition, whenever the gas cylinder
is connected to the regulator or whenever any part of the gas system
is disconnected or replaced, perform a leak test.
As a safety precaution, remember to always leak test your grill out-
doors in a well-ventilated area. Never smoke or permit sources of igni-
tion in the area while doing a leak test. Do not use a flame, such as a
lighted match to test for leaks. Use a solution of soapy water.
1.
Prepare a leak testing solution of soapy water by mixing in a spray
bottle one part liquid soap to one part water.
2.
Make sure all the control knobs are in the OFF position.
3.
Turn on the gas.
4.
Apply the leak-testing solution by spraying it on joints of the gas
delivery system. Blowing bubbles in the soap solution indicates
that a leak is present.
5.
Stop a leak by tightening the loose joint or by replacing the faulty
part with a replacement part recommended by the manufacturer.
Do not attempt to repair the cylinder valve if it is damaged. The
cylinder must be replaced.
6.
Turn all control knobs back to the full OFF position.
If you are unable to stop a leak:
1.
Turn all control knobs back to the full OFF position.
2.
Shut off the gas supply to the grill and release pressure in the hose
and manifold by pushing in and turning any of the control valves
one quarter turn counter-clockwise.
3.
On LP systems, remove the cylinder from the grill.
4.
Call an authorized gas appliance service technician or an LP gas
dealer.
Do not use the appliance until the leak is corrected.
