ƽ WARNING: An LP (propane) tank is overfilled if it contains
more than 80% by weight of its total capacity of propane (LP).
An incorrectly filled or an overfilled LP (propane) tank can be
dangerous. If this information is not followed exactly, a fire causing
death or serious injury may occur. If a tank is overfilled and the
weather causes the warming of the LP tank, (a hot day, tank left
in sun or stored indoors) internal pressure is created due to
expansion of the propane which in turn causes the LP gas to be
released through the pressure relief valve on the tank. The pressure
relief valve is a safety device required on 20 lb. propane tanks by
the Department of Transportation to prevent a catastrophic tank
failure due to excessive pressure. LP gas released from the tank is
flammable and can be explosive.
Gas Leak Checks
Remove Control Panel for Leak Testing
1. Remove control knobs.
2. Remove the two (2) screws and washers holding each valve to the control panel and
control knob bezel.
3. Loosen the control panel by removing two (2) screws from each side of the front
control panel.
4. Pull control panel away from grill.
Never use a match or fl ame for leak detection. Use soapy water or testing solution.
Brush the solution onto connection points and look closely for bubbles indicating
escaping gas. If leaks are detected, shut off the main gas supply valve and securely
retighten connections, then repeat the leak test.
On cabinet models, perform this operation before placing the tank into its storage
compartment. After placing the tank in the compartment, recheck the tank to see if any
connections were disturbed.
ƽ WARNING: Never use an open flame when testing for gas
leaks. Use of an open flame may result in serious bodily
injury or death, or in a fire or an explosion causing damage
to property.
