Weber 42376 manual Check For Gas Leaks, Gas Instructions, Danger

10 GAS INSTRUCTIONS

To Connect the hose to the cylinder:

3)Remove the plastic dust cover from the valve.

4)Screw the regulator coupling onto the tank valve, clockwise, or to the right. Hand-tighten only.

Note: This connection tightens clockwise and will not allow gas to flow unless

the connection is tight. The connection requires tightening by hand only.

WARNING: Do not use a wrench to tighten the connection. Using a wrench could damage the regulator coupling and could cause a leak.

5)Mix soap and water.

6)Turn on the cylinder valve.

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

If there is a leak, turn off the gas and tighten the fi tting. Turn the gas back

on and recheck with the soap and water solution.

If leak does not stop, contact the Summit® Built-In Customer Service at 1-800-446-1071. Do not use the barbecue.

8)When leak checking is complete, turn gas supply OFF at the source and rinse connections with water.

CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS

After a period of nonuse, we recommend that you perform the following

maintenance procedures for your safety.

WARNING: Check the hose before each use of the grill for nicks, cracking, abrasions or cuts. If the hose is found to be damaged in any way, do not use the grill. Replace using only Summit® authorized replacement hose. Contact the Summit® Built-In Customer Service at 1-800-446-1071.

•Inspect the burner for correct fl ame pattern. Clean if necessary, following the procedures outlined in the “General Maintenance” section of this manual.

•Check all gas fi ttings for 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 Barbe- cue. 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)Corregated gas line-to-Accessory “T” Connection

2)Regulator-to-Cylinder 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 GRILL. Contact Customer Service 1-800-446-1071.
