Check for gas leaks
• Check for gas leaks after installation and whenever a new or re-filled gas cylinder is used
for the first time.
• Never use a naked flame to check for gas leaks
• Ensure that the control knobs on the hob are in the OFF position.
• Open the valve on the Gas bottle.
• Using a small paint brush, apply some soapy water to all the connections.
• If there is a leak, bubbles will appear.
• If this happens, close the valve on the gas bottle.
• Check and tighten the connections immediately.
• Repeat the procedure to ensure that there are no further leaks.
If you smell gas:
• Turn off the gas supply at the bottle.
• Extinguish all naked flames.
