Preparing To Use Your Grill; What Is A Leak Check - Weber GO-ANYWHERE 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 regulator control knob is turned off by
pushing it in and turning it clockwise to the OFF
position.
m WARNING: Do not ignite burner when
leak checking.
C) 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.

D) When leak checking is complete, turn gas supply off
at the source and 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.
REMOVING THE LP CYLINDER

instructions to remove it.
A) Make sure the regulator control knob is turned off
by pushing it in and turning it clockwise to the OFF
