Operating Instructions

Before each use, inspect all hoses. If it is evident there is

excessive abrasion or wear, or the hose is cut, it must be

replaced prior to using your Broilmaster grill. Call your local

Broilmaster dealer for a replacement.

proximately 5 seconds).

Using Matches to Light the Grill

Checking for Gas Leaks

Check for gas leaks every time you connect your Broilmaster

pro-

pane gas grill to a Propane gas cylinder, when a connected cylinder

has not been used recently, or when either a natural or propane grill

is being used for the first time.
Caution: Do not use an open flame when checking for leaks.

Checking for leaks with an open flame may lead to a fire or

explosion, resulting in property damage or personal injury.
To check for gas leaks:
1. Use dish washing liquid and a little water to make a soapy

solution.

2. Turn OFF the knob on the control panel.

3. Turn ON the gas at the supply or cylinder. A hissing sound

indicates a leak. Turn OFF the gas and repair the leak.

4. Apply the soapy water solution to all gas connections.

5. Look for bubbles. Bubbles indicate a leak.

6. If there are bubbles turn OFF the gas and repair the leak.

7. Turn the gas back ON and repeat the above procedures until

all leaks are repaired.
