Do not ignite burners or use an open flame to check for gas leaks. Be sure there are no sparks or 
open flames in the area while you check for gas leaks.  

Flames and sparks will result in a fire or explosion which can cause serious bodily injury or death and 
damage to property. 

Note: All factory-made connections have been thoroughly checked for gas leaks. The burners and 
ignition system has been flame tested. As a safety precaution, we recommend you recheck all fittings 
for leaks before using your AUPA Plancha grill. Shipping and handling may loosen or damage a gas 
fitting. 

To perform a leak check you will need a solution of soap and water and a brush or rag to wet all gas 
connections.  

1. Turn all control knobs to the OFF position. 

2. Turn on gas supply and check for leaks by wetting the connections with the soap and water 
solution and watching for bubbles. If bubbles appear, or if a bubble grows, there is a leak, and in that 
case, please call AUPA Plancha to replace the defective part.  

Note: Since some leak test solutions, including soap and water, may be slightly corrosive, all 
connections should be rinsed with water after checking for leaks.
