Gas Instructions
Check for gas leaks
ƽ 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.
ƽ 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.
ƽ 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.
To perform leak checks: Slide back the collar of the quick
disconnect. Push male fitting of the hose into the quick
disconnect, and maintain pressure(1). Slide the collar
closed(2). If it does not engage or lock, repeat procedure.
Gas will not flow unless the quick disconnect is properly
engaged.
Turn on gas supply.
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.
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.
ƽ WARNING: Do not ignite burners when leak
checking.
