is tight. The connection requires tightening by
hand only.
WARNING: Do not use a wrench to tighten
the connection. Using a wrench could damage the
regulator coupling and could cause a gas leak. The
regulator vent holes should be at 3 o’clock (facing
forward). They should not be pointed up.

WARNING —A complete gas tightness
check must be performed at the final use site.
DO NOT use grill until all connections have been
leak tested.
5. Wet each connection with the soap solution.
6. A leak is identified by a flow of bubbles from the
area of the leak.
7. If a leak is detected, close the LP tank valve, tighten
the connection, and retest (Steps 4–6).
8. If you smell gas, read and follow the complete Leak
Test section in the Owner's Manual.
9. If the leak persists, contact your grill dealer for
assistance. Do not attempt to operate the grill
if a leak is present.
