LEAK TEST
The leak test must be carried out in a well-ventilated area, free
from any flames or other sources of ignition.
•
With the cylinder connected
to the stove, open the cylinder
valve.
•
Brush the connections (stove
to cylinder) with a solution of
equal parts soap and water
(make sure it’s foamy).
•
A stream of bubbles forming
indicates a gas leak. (See
Fig.15)
•
If bubbles appear, turn the
cylinder valve OFF (clockwise)
and disconnect the stove from
the gas cylinder.
•
Tighten the connection and
retry the leak test.
•
If you are unsure or if you
cannot tighten the connection,
place the cylinder outside in a
cool, well-ventilated area and
contact Alva on 086 100 ALVA
(2582).
•
A leak between the stove and
cylinder can lead to a high
pressure fire, which is very
dangerous and can result in
extensive injury or even death.
FITTING AND CHANGING THE GAS CYLINDER
1. Before connecting the appliance to a gas cylinder,
always ensure that the rubber seal on the Regulator is in
position and in good condition, and blow out any dust from
the cylinder opening to prevent possible blockage of the jet.
2. Ensure that the gas cylinder is fitted or changed in a well-
ventilated location, preferably outdoors, away from any
source of ignition, such as naked flames and away from
other people.
3. Make sure that the gas cylinder is kept upright at all times,
screw the regulator onto the cylinder until it is fully engaged.
Hand-tighten only.
