A leak test is used to determine the integrity of a seal. Before using your gas griddle, perform a leak test on the con-
nection between the gas regulator and the gas cylinder to reduce the risk of serious bodily injury or death from fire or
explosion. A leak test should be performed a minimum of once a season, as well as:
•
before lighting your griddle for the first time,
•
every time the gas cylinder has been changed,
•
after travel, especially over rough or bumpy roads,
•
after a prolonged period of storage or non-use.
HOW TO PERFORM A LEAK TEST
1.
Position the griddle in a well-ventilated area. Ensure the griddle
is cool to the touch, and not in use. Verify that the gas regulator
value is turned to the OFF position and that the gas cylinder is
tightened securely to the regulator.
NOTE: Ensure there is no open flame or smokers nearby.
2.
Mix a 1:1 solution of water and dish washing liquid in a bowl. The
solution will make bubbles, as it will be concentrated. (A)
3.
Use a paint brush to apply the solution onto the seal between the
regulator and the gas cylinder (B). Visually inspect for streams of
bubbles coming from a defect or break in the seal.
4.
If a leak appears, repeat gas cylinder installation procedure, but
do not over-tighten. Hand-tighten only. Repeat leak test after
re-installation to ensure seal is secure.
IMPORTANT: Do not use the griddle if you detect a gas leak that
cannot be corrected by using the leak test procedure. Contact
your local Fire Department or Customer Care for alternative
measures of testing to ensure proper precaution.
1.
Ensure the valve of the gas cylinder is completely closed. (A)
2.
Turn the quick coupling nut counter-clockwise (by hand) to dis-
connect the gas regulator from the top outlet of the gas cylinder
(B). Replace the protective caps from the gas regulator end and
the top outlet of the gas cylinder.
3.
The gas cylinder is now disconnected.
WARNING: It is important to always disconnect and/or store a
gas cylinder outdoors, even if the unit is put away for storage
or travel. Do not transport the griddle with the gas cylinder
attached. The gas cylinder may become disconnected and cause
a gas leak, possibly resulting in an explosion, fire, or severe
bodily harm.
