Leak Testing

IMPORTANT!
Gas leak testing must be carried out by a qualified technician.
General
Although all gas connections on the grill are leak tested at the factory prior to shipment, a
complete gas tightness check must be performed at the installation site due to possible mishandling
in shipment, or excessive pressure unknowingly being applied to the unit. Periodically check the
whole system for leaks, or immediately check if the smell of gas is detected.
Before Testing
Do not smoke while leak testing. Extinguish all open flames. Never leak test with an open flame.
Make a soap solution of one part liquid detergent and one part water. You will need a spray bottle,
brush, or rag to apply the solution to the fittings. For LP units, check with a full cylinder. The valve
panel must be removed to check the valves and fittings. Remove the knobs and the safety valve
knob, then remove the 2 screws which fasten the valve panel to the unit (you will need a Philips
screw driver for this). Pull the valve panel outward and unplug the wires from the ignition module.
In the back of the unit remove the screws which hold the service panel in place. Remove the service
panel.
To Test
Make sure all control valves are in the "OFF" position. Turn the gas supply "ON". Check all
connections from the supply line, or LP cylinder up to and including the manifold pipe assembly.
Apply the soap solution around the connection, valve, tubing and end of the manifold. Avoid
getting the soap solution on or in the valve switches. Soap bubbles will appear where a leak is
present. If a leak is present, immediately turn off gas supply, tighten any leaking connections, turn
gas on, and recheck. Check all the gas connections at the base of the control valves where they
screw into the manifold pipe.
To check rotisserie burner and safety valve the burner must be lit, then leak test the connections
located behind the service panel. If you cannot stop a gas leak turn off the gas supply and call your
local gas utility, or the dealer you purchased the appliance from. Only those parts recommended by
the manufacturer should be used on the grill. Substitution can void the warranty.
IMPORTANT!
y Do not use the grill until all connections have been checked and do not leak.
y Check all gas supply fittings for leaks before each use. Keep a spray bottle of soapy water near the
gas supply shut-off valve. Spray all the fittings, bubbles indicate leaks.
