Preparing To Use Your Grill; What Is A Leak Check - Weber GO-ANYWHERE 48988 Guide D'utilisation

WHAT IS A LEAK CHECK?

The fuel system in your grill features
connections and fittings. A leak check
is a reliable way to make sure that
no gas is escaping from any of the
connections or fittings.
Although all factory-made
connections have been thoroughly
checked for gas leaks, it's important
to perform a leak check before
using your grill for the first time, as
well as anytime you disconnect and
reconnect a fitting and each time you
perform routine maintenance.
m 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.
m WARNING: The gas connections of your
gas grill have been factory tested. We do,
however, recommend that you leak check
all gas connections before operating your
gas grill.
m WARNING: Perform these leak checks
even if your grill was dealer or store
assembled.
m 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 and the burner has been flame-tested.
As a safety precaution, however, you should check all fittings
for leaks before using your WEBER gas grill. Shipping and
handling may loosen or damage a gas fitting.
CHECKING FOR GAS LEAKS

PREPARING TO USE YOUR GRILL

Confirm that Grill Is Off
A) Confirm that the cylinder is properly installed. Refer to
"INSTALLING THE LP CYLINDER."
You will need: A spray bottle or brush or rag and a soap-
and-water solution. (You can make your own soap-and-
water solution by mixing 20% liquid soap with 80% water;
or, you can purchase solution in the plumbing section of any
hardware store.)
B) Make sure to turn the large control knob
counterclockwise until the red tab locks in the
LOW position.
C) Make sure the gas supply is turned OFF by turning the
small knob clockwise until it has fully closed.
m WARNING: Do not ignite burner when leak
checking.
D) To check for leaks, wet fittings with the soap-and-water
solution, using a spray bottle, brush or rag. If bubbles
form, or if a bubble grows, there is a leak. Apply the
soap-and-water solution to the following connections:
a) Regulator-to-cylinder connection (1).
m WARNING: If there is a leak at connection
(1), remove the cylinder. DO NOT
OPERATE THE GRILL. Install a different
cylinder and recheck for leaks with soap-
and-water solution. If a leak persists after
installing a different cylinder, turn off the
gas. DO NOT OPERATE THE GRILL. Contact
the Customer Service Representative in
your area using the contact information
on our web site.

E) When leak checking is complete, rinse connections with
water.
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.
m WARNING: Make sure that all parts
are assembled and hardware is fully
tightened before operating the grill. Your
actions, if you fail to follow this product
warning, may cause a fire, an explosion,
or structural failure resulting in serious
personal injury or death as well as
damage to property.
Now you are ready to use your grill.
