You may check for gas leaks with the following methods only:
  •  Soap and water solution
  •  An approved leak testing spray

NOTE:  Remove  any  excessive  pipe 
compound  from  the  connections. 
Excessive pipe compound can set off 
electronic sniffers. 
The control has an interlock device that does not allow the lighting of the fireplace up 
to the moment the safety device of the flame has not  interrupted the gas flow. After 
that period of time (when the magnet is closed), it is possible to start the lighting 
operation. 
The gas control knob is designed to be operated by hand. DO NOT use any tools 
during this operation. Damaged knobs may result in serious injury.
