Check for gas leaks
After a period of nonuse, we recommend that you
perform the following maintenance procedures for
your safety.
• Inspect the burner for correct flame pattern.
Clean if necessary, following the procedures
outlined in the “General Maintenance” section of
this manual.
• Check all gas fittings for leaks.
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 grill. Shipping and handling may have
loosened or damaged a gas fitting.
ƽ WARNING: Perform these leak checks even
if your grill 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 make
sure the Burner is in the off position and turn on
gas supply.
ƽ WARNING: Do not ignite burner while 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. 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.
Check:
1) Regulator to propane cylinder connection.
ƽ WARNING: If there is a leak at connection
(1), remove propane cylinder. Do not operate
grill. Use a different propane cylinder and
recheck for leaks with soap and water
solution. If a leak persists after retightening
the propane cylinder, turn OFF the gas.
