Leak Tesng Instrucons
WARNING! A leak test must be performed annually and each me a cylinder is hooked up or if a
part of the gas system is replaced.
WARNING! Never use an open ame to check for gas leaks. Be certain no sparks or open ames
are in the area while you check for leaks. Sparks or open ames will result in a re or explosion,
damage to property, serious bodily injury, or death.

WARNING! Always wear protecve gloves and safety glasses when servicing your grill.
WARNING! To avoid the possibility of burns, maintenance should be done only when the grill is
cool. Avoid unprotected contact with hot surfaces. Ensure all burners are turned o. Clean grill in an
area where cleaning soluons will not harm decks, lawns, or paos. Do not use oven cleaner to clean
any part of this gas grill. Do not use a self-cleaning oven to clean cooking grids or any other parts of
the gas grill. Barbecue sauce and salt can be corrosive and will cause rapid deterioraon of the gas grill
