• Do not smoke while performing the leak test.
• Always carry out the leak test outdoors in a well-ventilated area away from ignition
sources such as gasoline, open flames, sparks, or electrical equipment.
• The appliance must be checked regularly for gas leaks. If a smell of gas is
perceptible, the leak test must be carried out immediately.
• Do not try to detect leaks using a flame; use soapy water (1:3 ratio of soap and
water). The correct way is to smear the joints e.g. where the stem fits into the
cylinder, with soapy water. If bubbles form, then there is a gas leak. Immediately
turn off the gas supply by closing the control valve on the gas container and then
the appliance valve. Check that all the connections are properly fitted. Re-check
with soapy water. If a gas leak persists, return the product to where you purchased
Leakage testing in detail
1. Turn all control knob(s) to "OFF" position.
2. Be sure that the regulator is tightly
connected to the gas tank.
3. Completely open the tank valve by turning
the manual valve to the "ON" position. If
you hear a rushing sound, turn the gas off
immediately. There is a major leak at the
connection. Correct before proceeding.
4. Brush the soapy solution onto the
connections.
5. If growing bubbles appear, there is a leak.
Turn off the gas supply in event of gas
leak. If leaks cannot be stopped, do not
try to repair. Replace with a new one.
6. Always close the tank valve after performing a tank leak test by turning manual
valve.
7. Before each use, check to see if hoses are cut or worn. Replace a damaged hose
assembly before using the appliance. Use only valve/hose/regulator specified by
the manufacturer or seller.
