PERFORM A LEAK TEST

A leak test ensures that there are no gas leaks prior to lighting your grill.
WHEN A LEAK TEST MUST BE PERFORMED:
• Before lighting your grill for the first time.
• Every time the propane cylinder is refilled
• If any gas component is changed
• At a minimum once per season.
• After prolonged period of storage or non-use.
• If the regulator flow-limiting device has been activated.
The leak test should be performed in a well-ventilated area away from any open flame,
heat or ignition sources. DO NOT USE A MATCH, OPEN FLAME OR SMOKE DURING
LEAK TESTING.
WHAT YOU'LL NEED FOR TESTING:
1. A mixture of 50% liquid dish soap and 50% water.
2. A brush or cloth to apply the mixture.
Failure to ensure the above may result in a hazardous fire or
explosion causing serious bodily injury and/or property damage.
