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. This will result in a fire
or explosion which can cause serious
bodily injury or death and damage to
property.
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: soap and water solution and a rag or
brush to apply it.
To perform leak checks: Turn ON gas supply at the
source. Figure 19.
ƽWARNING: Do
not ignite burners 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.

a) Gas supply line to manifold connection.
