Checking for LP gas leaks
Never test for leaks with a flame. Prior to first use, at
the beginning of each season, or every time your LP
gas tank is changed, you must check for gas leaks.
1. Make a 50/50 (soap/water) mild soap solution.
2. Turn the control knobs to full OFF position; then turn
gas ON at supply tank.
3. Apply the soap solution with a clean brush to all gas
connections. See below. If growing bubbles appear
in the solution the connections are not properly
sealed. Check each fitting and tighten or repair as
necessary.
Gas Connection Leak Check
4. If you have a gas connection leak you cannot repair,
turn gas OFF at supply tank, disconnect fuel line
from your grill and call 1-800-913-8999 or your gas
supplier for repair assistance.
5. Also apply soapy solution to the tank seams. See
below. If growing bubbles appear, shut tank OFF
and do not use or move it! Contact an LP gas
supplier or your fire department for assistance.
