LEAK TESTING OPERATION
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.
WARNING:
DO NOT USE AN OPEN FLAME.
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 your dealer and have the appliance inspected by a certified gas installer.
If the leak cannot be stopped, immediately shut off the gas supply, disconnect it, and have the appliance inspected by a certified gas
installer or dealer. Do not use the appliance until the leaks have been corrected.
