CHECKING FOR GAS LEAKS
7.1 Why check for gas leaks?
Propane and butane are heavier than air. As a result, they do not
float away when leaking from the appliance. Especially on
windless days, a leak can cause the gas to collect in and around
the appliance. That accumulated gas can then ignite and
explode.
7.2 When check for gas leaks?
•
Before the first use or before the first use after a long period
of non-use.
1
Also check for gas leaks if your appliance was assembled
by your dealer.
•
Each time you replace a gas component.
•
At least once a year, preferably at the beginning of the
season.
7.3 Safety instructions
•
Put the appliance outdoors, in a well-ventilated area. Make
sure there are no flames or heat sources near the appliance.
•
Never use a lighter or match to check for gas leaks.
•
Do not smoke and do not light the burners when checking
for gas leaks.
7.4 Which materials do I need?
To check for gas leaks, you need:
•
A testing liquid. You can use a ready-made leak spray or a
mixture of water (50%) and dish-washing soap (50%).
•
The leak test tool that came with your appliance. You use it
to suck up the testing liquid and apply it to the gas
component or connection that you want to check.
