TESTING & ADJUSTMENT
LEAK TESTING
GENERAL
A complete gas tightness check must be performed of all gas-carrying components due to possible 
movement during installation, or excessive pressure unknowingly being applied to parts of the unit. 
BEFORE TESTING
•  Do not smoke while leak testing.
•  Never leak test with an open flame.
•  Make a soap solution of one part liquid detergent and one part water for leak testing purposes.
•  Apply the solution to the gas fittings by using a spray bottle or a brush.
•  For LP units, always check with a full LP cylinder.
TO TEST
•  Make sure all control valves are in the “OFF” position.
•  Apply the soap solution liberally to all fittings.
•  Turn the gas supply on.
•  Check all connections from the supply line, or LP cylinder up to and including the manifold pipe 
assembly.
•  Soap bubbles will appear where a leak is present. If a leak is present, immediately turn off gas supply, 
tighten any leaking fittings, turn the gas supply back on, and recheck.
•  If you cannot stop a gas leak, turn off the gas supply and call the dealer where you purchased your 
grill.
•  Do not use the grill until all connections have been checked and do not leak.
IMPORTANT NOTE - ALWAYS CHECK FOR LEAKS AFTER EVERY LP CYLINDER CHANGE.
