1. Make leakage solution by mixing 1 part liquid dish soap and 3 parts water.
2. Spoon or brush several drops (or use squirt bottle) of the solution onto hose/regulator/cylinder connection.
3. Turn on gas cylinder. Inspect the connections and look for bubbles.
4. If no bubbles appear, the connection is safe.
5. If bubbles appear, there is leakage. Loosen and re-tighten this connection. If there is still a leak, please call customer service: 1-888-909-3888.

Note:

1. The cylinder supply system must be arranged for vapor withdrawal.
2. The cylinder used must include a collar to protect the cylinder valve.

The hose assembly must be replaced prior to the appliance being put into operation if there is evidence of excessive abrasion or wear, or if the hose is damaged.
At least once a year, a complete inspection of the entire gas path components should be performed. If there is need to replace parts, proceed to leak test after reassembly (These procedures should be performed by a professional technician).
