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:
a) Hose to manifold connection. Figure 19 (a).
b) Regulator to tank connection. Figure 19 (b).
ƽWARNING: If there is a leak at connection (a)
retighten the fitting with a wrench and recheck for
leaks with soap and water solution.
If a leak persists after retightening the fitting, turn OFF
the gas. DO NOT OPERATE THE BARBECUE. Contact
Weber-Stephen Customer Service.
c) Valves to manifold connections. Figure 19 (c).
d) The hose to regulator connection. Figure 19 (d).
ƽWARNING: If there is a leak at connections
(b), (c) or (d), turn OFF the gas. DO NOT OPERATE
THE BARBECUE. Contact Weber-Stephen Customer
Service.
When leak checks are complete, turn gas supply OFF and
rinse connections with water.
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.
