IMPORTANT: CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS. Test
all gas piping and connections for leaks after
installation or servicing. Never use an open
flame to check for a leak. Apply a noncorrosive
leak detection fluid to all joints (available at lo-
cal plumbing supply stores). Bubbles forming
show a leak. Correct all leaks at once.
