Leak Test Procedure:
• Create a soapy solution of 1 part soap and 3 parts water.
• Confirm that all control knobs are in the off position.
• turn on the fuel supply. for natural gas, turn the valve
handle 1/4 turn to align with the gas flow.
• for l.p., turn the cylinder valve knob counter clockwise
one full rotation.
• apply the soap solution generously by paint brush or
squirt bottle on all connections and fittings.
• if bubbles appear to “grow” on any of the connections,
you have a gas leak. immediately turn off the gas supply.
Fixing a Gas Leak:
• shut off the gas supply
• turn all grill controls to the “on” position to purge the grill
of any gas build-up, then turn the controls back “off”.
• Wash off the soapy solution with cold water and dry.
• tighten the loose joint, or replace the faulty part with
manufacturer-recommended replacement parts.
• do not attempt to repair the l.p. cylinder valve if it is
damaged. the only way to safely resolve a damaged
cylinder is to replaCe it.
• repeat the leak test to ensure that no leaks are present.
note: the prosear™ 2 does not have an air shutter.
• the appearance of the prosear™ 2 burner should be
visually checked. the ceramic tiles should be uniformly
red to orange in appearance. there should be no lifting,
fluttering or lazy blue flames. some food particles will
show as yellow flames but should burn off.
