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.
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.
ƽ 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.
ƽ 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.

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.

ƽ 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
