LEAK TESTING
NEVER USE A NAKED FLAME TO CHECK FOR LEAKS.
NEVER LEAK TEST WHILE SMOKING.
The gas connections on this appliance are leak tested at the
factory prior to shipment.
This appliance needs to be periodically checked for leaks and
an immediate check is required if the smell of gas is
detected.
Make a soap solution using 1 part of liquid dish-washing
soap to 3 parts water. The soap solution can be applied
with a soap bottle, brush, or rag to the leak tested points
shown in the figure above.
The valve of the gas cylinder should be in the OFF position
at this point of the leak test. Once the soapy solution is
applied to the gas connections, the valve of the gas
cylinder needs to be turned to the ON position.
Soap bubbles will begin to form in the soapy solution if a
leak is present.
In case of a leak, turn off the gas supply. Tighten any
leaking fittings, then turn the gas supply on and recheck.
