Test for Gas Leaks

Leak testing is to be conducted by the installer according to
the instructions given in this section.
Note:
Be careful not to apply pressure to warming drawer
element during rigid pipe testing.
1. Turn on gas.
2. Apply a non-corrosive leak detection fluid. Include all
joints and fittings between the shutoff valve and the
range. Include gas fittings and joints in the range if con-
nections may have been disturbed during installation.
3. Inspect for leaks. Bubbles appearing around fit-
tings and connections indicate a leak.
4. If a leak appears, turn off supply line gas shutoff valve
and tighten connections.
5. Retest for leaks. Turn gas back on at supply line shutoff
valve and reapply leak detection fluid.
6. When no bubbles appear, test is complete. Wipe off all
detection fluid residue.

9 WARNING
Never check for gas leaks with a flame.
Do not continue to the next step until all leaks are
eliminated.
