Check for gas leaks

DANGER

Do not 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 leaks. Sparks or open flames will result in a fire or explosion, which can cause serious bodily injury or death and damage to property.

WARNING: You should check for gas leaks every time you disconnect and reconnect a gas fitting. Note - All factory-made connections have been thoroughly checked for gas leaks. The burners have been flame-tested. As a safety precaution however, you should recheck all fittings for leaks before using your Weber Gas Barbecue. Shipping and handling may loosen or damage a gas fitting.

WARNING: Perform these leak checks even if your barbecue was dealer or store assembled. You will need: a soap and water solution, and a rag or brush to apply it.

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. Make sure side burner is OFF.

To perform leak checks: open cylinder valve by turning the cylinder valve hand-wheel counterclockwise.

WARNING: Do not ignite burners when leak checking.

Check for leaks by wetting the connections with the soap and water solution and watching for bubbles. If bubbles form or if a bubble grows, there is a leak.

Check:

1) Hose to manifold connection.

WARNING: If there is a leak at connection (1), retighten the fitting with a wrench and recheck for leaks with soap and water solution.

If a leak persists after re-tightening the fitting, turn OFF the gas. DO NOT OPERATE THE BARBECUE. Contact the Customer Service Representative in your region using the contact information sheet provided with your manual.

2)Regulator to cylinder connection.

3)Manifold to side burner hose connection.

4)Side burner hose to side burner connection.

5)Valves to manifold connections.

6)Hose to regulator connection.

WARNING: If there is a leak at connections (2,3,4,5 or 6), turn OFF the gas. DO NOT OPERATE THE BARBECUE. Contact the Customer Service Representative in your region using the contact information sheet provided with your manual. When leak checks are complete, turn gas supply OFF at the source and rinse connections with water.
