TO TEST

• Make sure all control valves are in the “OFF” position.

• Apply the soap solution described above 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.

If a leak is present, or if there is evidence of excessive abrasion or wear, or the hose is cut, it must be

replaced before using the grill. The hose and LP regulator are supplied as a complete assembly and must

be replaced together. Do not attempt to repair or replace the hose itself. Contact your Hestan dealer for

genuine replacement P/N 014309.

Check all gas supply fittings for leaks before each use. It is handy to keep a spray bottle of soapy water

near the shut-off valve of the gas supply line. Spray all the fittings. Bubbles indicate leaks.

BURNER ADJUSTMENTS

Aspire grills feature U-burners, and infrared Rotisserie and Sear Burners. The following instructions apply

only to the U-burner.

U-BURNER FLAME ADJUSTMENT

Each grill burner is tested and adjusted at the factory prior to shipment. The proper orifice for the gas

type, and the air-fuel (air shutter) adjustment was made at this time. However, variations in the local gas

supply, the elevation where you live, converting from one gas type to another, and other factors might

make it necessary to adjust the burner flames.

The flames of the burners should be visually checked and compared with the figures below.

GAS CONNECTIONS

(continued)

Flames should be blue and stable

with no yellow tips (LP units will

have some yellow tipping). There

should be no excessive noise or

flame lifting. If any of these

conditions exist, remove the burners

and check if dirt, debris, spider webs,

etc., are blocking the air shutter

or burner ports. Proceed with air

shutter adjustment if necessary.
