at this point of the leakage test. Once the soapy solution is
applied to the gas connections, the valve of the LPG cylinder
needs to be turned to the “ON” position.
•
Soap bubbles will begin to form in the soapy solution if any
leakage is present.
•
In the event of gas leakage, the appliance shall not be used
or if alight, the gas supply shall be shut-off and the appliance
