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 Care 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.
