CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS
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.
WARNING: You should check for gas leaks every time you
disconnect and reconnect a gas fitting.

burners have been flame-tested. As a safety precaution however, you should recheck
all fittings for leaks before using your Weber
