Leak Testing Instructions
WARNING!
A leak test must be performed annually and each time a cylinder is hooked up or if a
part of the gas system is replaced.
WARNING!
Never use an open flame to check for gas leaks. Be certain no sparks or open flames
are in the area while you check for leaks. Sparks or open flames will result in a fire or explosion,
damage to property, serious bodily injury, or death.
Leak testing : This must be done before initial use, annually, and whenever any gas components are
replaced or serviced. Do not smoke while performing this test, and remove all sources of ignition. See
Leak Testing Diagram for areas to check. Turn all burner controls to the off position. Turn gas supply valve
on.
Brush a half-and-half solution of liquid soap and water onto all joints and connections of the regulator,
hose, manifolds and valves.
Bubbles will indicate a gas leak. Either tighten the loose joint or have the part replaced with one
recommended by the Napoleon Customer Solutions department and have the grill inspected by a
certified gas installer.
If the leak cannot be stopped, immediately shut off the gas supply , disconnect it, and have the grill
inspected by a certified gas installer or dealer. Do not use the grill until the leak has been corrected.
