Check for gas leaks
ƽWARNING: 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 you should recheck all
fittings for leaks before using your Weber Gas Barbecue.
Shipping and handling may have loosened or damaged a
gas fitting.
ƽWARNING: 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: open tank valve by turning the
tank valve handwheel counterclockwise. Figure 19.
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. This will result in a fire or explosion
which can cause serious bodily injury or
death and damage to property.
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.
ƽWARNING: Do not ignite burners when leak checking.
