What is a Leak Check?
Once the LP tank is properly installed, it is necessary
to perform a leak check. A leak check is a reliable way
to verify that gas is not escaping after you connect the
tank. The fuel system in your grill features factory-
made connections that have been thoroughly checked
for gas leaks and the burners have been flame-tested.
WEBER recommends performing a thorough leak check
after assembly, as well as every time you disconnect
and reconnect a gas fitting. The following fittings should
be tested:
• Where the cylinder connects to the regulator.
• Where the regulator connects to the valve.
Checking for Gas Leaks
1) Make sure burner control knob is turned o by
pushing it in and turning it clockwise to the o (
)
position.
2) Wet fittings (B) with a soap and water solution, using
a spray bottle, brush, or rag. You can make your own
soap and water solution by mixing 20% liquid soap
with 80% water; or, you can purchase leak check
solution in the plumbing section of any hardware
store.
3) If bubbles appear there is a leak:
a) If the leak is at the cylinder (C), remove the
propane cylinder. DONOT OPERATE THE GRILL.
Install a dierent propane cylinder and recheck
for leaks with a soap and water solution. If the
leak persists, remove the propane cylinder. DO

water, may be slightly corrosive, all connections should be
rinsed with water after checking for leaks.
