Checking for Gas Leaks
Check for gas leaks every time you connect your Broil-
master ® propane 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 check-
ing 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 connec-
tions.
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 proce-
dures until all leaks are repaired.
