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.

brush to apply it.
To perform leak checks: open tank valve by turning
the tank valve handwheel counterclockwise.
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.
