TESTING THE INSTALLATION

Before turning the gas supply on, check for proper installa-
tion using the following test:
1. Plug the transformer back into the receptacle.
2. Push in the gas control knob on your accessory and
watch the igniter. It should glow bright and steady.
3. Turn on the light switch on the grill. Both the grill and
the grill accessory lights should operate together. This
indicates a proper assembly.
Turn the gas on to all appliances.
4. Perform a leak test if you have not done so since
plumbing the unit.
5. Check all burners for proper ignition. Refer to the Light-
ing Instructions for Side Burners.

LEAK TESTING

DANGER!
To prevent fi re or explosion hazard, DO NOT smoke
or allow any potential source of ignition (sparks,
electrical arcing, etc) in the area while performing a
leak test. Leak tests should be conducted outdoors
only. Never conduct a leak test using fi re or fl ame.
Leak Test Procedure:
1. Create a soapy solution of 1 part soap and 3 parts
water.
2. Confi rm that all control knobs are in the off position.
3. Turn on the fuel supply. For natural gas, turn the valve
handle 1/4 turn to align with the gas fl ow.
4. For LP, turn the cylinder valve knob counter clockwise
one full rotation.
5. Apply the soap solution generously by paint brush or
squirt bottle on all connections and fi ttings.
6. If bubbles appear to "grow" on any of the connections,
you have a gas leak. IMMEDIATELY turn off the gas
supply.
