in a fire or explosion which can cause serious bodily
injury or death, and damage to property.

Do not store a spare LP-gas cylinder under or near this
appliance. Never fill the cylinder beyond 80 percent
full. If the instructions are not followed exactly, a fire
causing death or serious injury may occur.
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.
D
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.
D
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.
D
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.
