GAS INSTRUCTIONS
Check for gas leaks
DANGER
Do not use an open fl ame to check for gas
leaks. Be sure there are no sparks or open
fl ames in the area while you check for leaks.
Sparks or open fl ames will result in a fi re or
explosion which can cause serious bodily
injury or death and damage to property.
WARNING: You should check for gas leaks every
time you disconnect and reconnect a gas fi tting.
Note - All factory-made connections have been thoroughly
checked for gas leaks. The burners have been fl ame-
tested. As a safety precaution however, you should
recheck all fi ttings for leaks before using your Weber
®
gas
barbecue. Shipping and handling may loosen or damage a
gas fi tting.
WARNING: Perform these leak checks even if your
barbecue was dealer or store assembled.
You will need: a soap and water solution, and a rag or
brush to apply it.
Turn on gas supply.
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.
WARNING: Do not ignite burners when leak
checking.
WARNING : The gas connections of your Summit
®
gas grill have been factory tested. We do however
recommend that you leak check all gas connections
before operating your Summit
®
gas grill.
