IMPORTANT NEW FEATURES:
Your Weber Gas Barbecue is equipped with a new and
improved LP tank connection, that has additional
safety features. They are:
1. The connection of the barbecue to the LP tank can be
made without the use of tools.
2. The new connection will not permit the flow of gas
until a positive gas connection is made.
3. If an accidental fire occurs at the LP tank connection,
the flow of gas is stopped by a temperature activated
shutoff.
4. If the LP supply hose becomes damaged, cut,
punctured, or accidentally fire damaged, the barbecue
connection is equipped with an excess flow control
that will limit the flow of gas if leakage or a fire occurs.
