LEAK TESTING THE VALVE, HOSE AND REGULATOR ASSEMBLY
7. Slowly turn “ON” the propane gas supply, 1/4 to 1/2 a turn.
8. Wait approximately 5 seconds for the hose and regulator pressure to stabilize (to prevent the flow
limiting device feature from being re-activated).
9. Turn the selected burner control knob, to the “MAX” ( ) position.
10. Press the Electronic ignition button, or use the match and match holder, or a BBQ lighter to ignite the
selected burner.
Avoid activating the Flow Limiting Feature
by following the proper start up and shut down procedures and
performing a complete leak test and safety check to ensure that there are no leaks in the system, and that a
positive connection has been made between the gas source and manifold assembly.
1.
Turn all grill control knobs to “OFF”.
2. Ensure that the regulator is tightly connected to LP cylinder.
3. Brush soapy solution onto hose and regulator and all connections from
the LP tank to the main and side burner manifold.
4. Completely open LP cylinder valve by turning hand wheel
counterclockwise. If you hear a rushing sound, turn gas off
immediately. There is a leak at the connection.
Correct before
proceeding.

If “growing” bubbles appear
, there is a leak. Close LP cylinder valve
immediately and re-tighten connections.
If leaks cannot be stopped
do not try to repair.

LP Cylinder Leak Test For Your Safety
ATTENTION:
Leak Test must be repeated each time the LP cylinder is
exchanged or refilled.
• Do not smoke during leak test.
• Do not use an open flame to check for gas leaks
• BBQ must be leak tested outdoors in a well ventilated area, away from ignition
sources such as gas fired electrical appliances. During leak test, keep your
BBQ away from open flames or sparks.
• Use a clean paint brush and a 50/50 mild soap and water mixture.
• Brush soapy solution onto areas indicated by arrows in figure A.
ATTENTION
If it is evident there is excessive abrasion or wear, or the hose is cut, it must be replaced prior to
the outdoor cooking gas appliance being put into operation. The replacement hose assembly
shall be that specified by the manufacturer.
WARNING
For all new, at home, natural gas connections please contact a certified gas technician to install
your natural gas barbecue.
