Leak Testing Instructions
WARNING!
A leak test must be performed annually and each time a cylinder is hooked up or if a part
of the gas system is replaced.
WARNING!
Never use an open flame to check for gas leaks. Be certain no sparks or open flames are
in the area while you check for leaks. Sparks or open flames will result in a fire or explosion, damage to
property, serious bodily injury, or death.
Leak testing: This must be done before initial use, annually, and whenever any gas components are replaced
or serviced. Do not smoke while performing this test, and remove all sources of ignition. See Leak Testing
Diagram for areas to check. Turn all burner controls to the off position. Turn gas supply valve on.
Brush a half-and-half solution of liquid soap and water onto all joints and connections of the regulator, hose,
manifolds and valves.
Bubbles will indicate a gas leak. Either tighten the loose joint or have the part replaced with one recommended
by the Napoleon Customer Care department and have the grill inspected by a certified gas installer.
If the leak cannot be stopped, immediately shut off the gas supply, disconnect it, and have the grill inspected
by a certified gas installer or dealer. Do not use the grill until the leak has been corrected.
BUILT IN NATURAL GAS HOOK-UP: The piping up to the gas grill is the responsibility of the installer and piping
should be located as shown in the built-in instructions. A flexible metal connector is included to simplify the
installation of the unit. Connect this connector to the flare fitting on the end of the manifold. Connect the
other end of the connector to the gas piping. Ensure that the connector does not pass through a wall, floor,
ceiling or partition, and is protected from damage. Do not use a hose to connect the unit. It must be connected
with rigid pipe, copper tube or an approved flexible metal connector which complies with Z21.4 /CSA 6.10.
The installation must comply with CAN B149.1 Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code in Canada, or to the
National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1 in the United States. The gas supply pipe must be sufficiently sized to
supply the BTU/h specified on the rating plate, based on the length of the piping run. If installing a side burner,
a separate line must be branched off to the side burner unit and enter the side burner opening at the specified
location.
WARNING!
Built in units are supplied with a drip pan which holds only a minimal amount of grease. To
prevent grease fires, the pan must be cleaned after each use.
WARNING!
Access must be provided to the inside of the enclosure to make gas connections.
DANGER!
Read all instructions carefully before operating the grill. Failure to follow these instructions
exactly could result in a fire causing serious injury or death. The entire installation must be leak tested before
operating the grill.
