General Instructions

Your Weber® gas barbecue is a portable outdoor cooking appliance. With the Weber® gas barbecue you can grill, barbecue, roast and bake with results that are difficult to duplicate with indoor kitchen appliances. The closed lid and Flavorizer® Bars produce that “outdoor” flavor in the food.

The Weber® gas barbecue is portable so you can easily change its location in your yard or on your patio. Portability means you can take your Weber® gas barbecue with, if you move.

Liquid Propane (LP) gas supply is easy to use and gives you more cooking control than charcoal fuel.

These instructions will give you the minimum requirements for assembling your Weber® gas barbecue. Please read the instructions carefully before using your Weber® gas barbecue. Improper assembly can be dangerous.

Not for use by children.

If there are local codes that apply to portable gas grills, you will have to conform to them. If there are no local codes, you must conform to the latest edition of the National Fuel Gas Code: ANSI Z 223.1.

The pressure regulator supplied with the Weber® gas barbecue must be used. This regulator is set for 10.5 inches of water column (pressure).

This Weber® gas barbecue is designed for use with liquid propane (LP) gas only. Do not use with natural (piped in city) gas. The valves, orifices, hose and regulator are for LP gas only.

Do not use with charcoal fuel.

Check that the area under the control panel and the bottom tray are free from debris that might obstruct the flow of combustion or ventilation air.

The areas around the LP cylinder must be free and clear from debris.

For Installation in Canada

These instructions, while generally acceptable, do not necessarily comply with the Canadian Installation codes, particularly with piping above and below ground. In Canada the installation of this appliance must comply with local codes and/or Standard CAN/CGA-B149.2 (Installation Code for Propane Burning Appliances and Equipment).

Storage and/or Nonuse

The gas must be turned off at the liquid propane cylinder when the Weber® gas barbecue is not in use.

When the Weber® gas barbecue is stored indoors, the gas supply must be DISCONNECTED and the LP cylinder stored outdoors in a well-ventilated space.

LP cylinder must be stored outdoors in a well - ventilated area out of reach of children. Disconnected LP cylinder must not be stored in a building, garage or any other enclosed area.

When the LP cylinder is not disconnected from the Weber® gas barbecue, the appliance and LP tank must be kept outdoors in a well-ventilated space.

The Weber® gas barbecue should be checked for gas leaks and any obstructions in the burner tubes before using. (See Sections: “General Maintenance and Annual Maintenance.”)

Check that the areas under the control panel and the slide out bottom tray are free from debris that might obstruct the flow of combustion or ventilation air.

The Spider /Insect Screens should also be checked for any obstructions. (See Section: “Annual Maintenance.”)

General Instructions

Cooking

WARNING: Do not move the Weber® gas barbecue when operating or while barbecue is hot.

You can adjust the FRONT and BACK burners as desired. The control settings: High (H), Medium (M), Low (L), or Off

(O) are described in your Weber® cookbook. The cookbook uses these notations to describe the settings of the FRONT and BACK burners. For example, to sear steaks, you would set all burners at H (high). Then to complete cooking, you would set FRONT and BACK at M (medium). Refer to your Weber® cookbook for detailed cooking instructions.

Note: The temperature inside your cooking box for the first few uses, while surfaces are still very reflective, may be hotter than those shown in your cookbook. Cooking conditions. Such as wind and weather, may require the adjustment of the burner controls to obtain the correct cooking temperatures.

CAUTION: Replace thermometer in lid when not in use. Do not leave thermometer in food while cooking.

If burners go out during cooking, open lid, turn off all burners and wait five minutes before relighting. Preheating - Your Weber® gas barbecue is an energyefficient appliance. It operates at an economical low BTU rate. To preheat: after lighting, close lid and turn all burners to high (HH). Preheating to between 500° and 550° F (260° and 290° C) will take 10 to 15 minutes depending on conditions such as air temperature and wind.

Drippings and grease - The Flavorizer® bars are designed to “smoke” the correct amount of drippings for flavorful cooking. Excess drippings and grease will accumulate in the catch pan under the slide out bottom tray. Disposable foil drip pans are available that fit the catch pan.

WARNING: Check the bottom tray for grease buildup before each use. Remove excess grease to avoid a grease fire in the slide out bottom tray.

Cleaning

WARNING: Turn your Weber® gas barbecue OFF and wait for it to cool before cleaning.

CAUTION: Do not clean your Flavorizer® bars or cooking grates in a self-cleaning oven.

For availability of replacement cooking grates and Flavorizer® bars contact the

Customer Service Representative in your region using the contact information sheet

provided with your manual.

Outside surfaces - Use a warm soapy water solution to clean, then rinse with water.

CAUTION: Do not use oven cleaner, abrasive cleansers (kitchen cleansers) cleaners that contain citrus products, or abrasive cleaning pads on barbecue or cart surfaces.

Slide out Bottom tray - Remove excess grease, then wash with warm soapy water, then rinse

Flavorizer® bars and Cooking grates - Clean with a suitable brass bristle brush. As needed, remove from grill and wash with warm soapy water, then rinse with water.

Catch pan - Disposable foil trays are available, or you can line the catch pan with aluminum foil. To clean the catch pan, wash with warm soapy water, then rinse.

Thermometer - Wipe with warm soapy water; clean with plastic scrub ball. Do not put in dishwasher or submerge in water.

Inside cooking module - Brush any debris off of burner tubes. DO NOT ENLARGE BURNER PORTS (OPENINGS). Wash inside of cooking box with warm soapy water and a water rinse.

Inside Lid - While lid is warm, wipe inside with paper towel to prevent grease build-up. Flaking built-up grease resembles paint flakes.

Stainless steel surfaces - Wash with a soft cloth and a soap and water solution. Be careful to scrub with the grain direction of the stainless steel.

Thermoset surfaces - Wash with a soft cloth and a soap and water solution.

Do not use cleaners that contain acid, mineral spirits or xylene. Rinse well after cleaning.

Thermoset work surfaces are not to be used as cutting boards.

Cast Iron Cooking Grates Care Instructions

WARNING: Follow all safety instructions provided with your barbecue. Do not drop cast iron grates, they will break.

First Time Use - Wash thoroughly with a mild dishwashing liquid to remove the wax coating used for protection in shipping. Rinse with warm water and dry completely with a soft cloth or paper towel. NEVER ALLOW TO DRAIN DRY, OR WASH IN A DISHWASHER. You must season the grates before first use to prevent rust and keep foods from sticking.

Seasoning Cast Iron Grates - A SOLID vegetable shortening is recommended for the initial seasoning. Spread a thin coating of solid vegetable shortening over entire surface of the cast iron grates with a paper towel. Be certain the entire surface, including all corners, has been coated thoroughly. (Do not use salted fat such as margarine or butter.)

Turn burners to M-O-M with lid closed (M = Medium, O = Off, H = High, L = Low. Turn burners to M-M if you have a two burner Silver A model). Preheat grill for 10 minutes.

Place cast iron grates back in grill. Allow grill to heat for 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Turn all burners to OFF. Leave grates in barbecue until they are cool. Your cast iron grates are now ready to use.

Maintenance - Brush debris off with a steel bristled wire brush.

Reseasoning - After each use the grates may be reseasoned by coating with a solid vegetable shortening, closing the lid and leaving the cast iron grates in grill until it is cool.

Tips - The cast iron grates will turn black with use. The pores of the iron will be sealed, providing a durable coating that helps to prevent foods from sticking. The grates will further season with use. REGULAR APPLICATIONS OF SOLID VEGETABLE SHORTENING WILL IMPROVE ITS RESISTANCE TO RUST.

Rust, a metallic taste or discolored foods are signs of improper or inadequate seasoning or may result from cooking acidic foods If rust occurs you can remove the rust with a steel brush. Then re-season the grates.

Caution

To prevent rusting the cast iron cooking grates should be re-seasoned frequently, particularly when new. Rusting is not a manufacturers defect.

Since cast iron holds heat well, you will not need to use extremely high cooking temperatures. Best results are obtained with medium to medium-high heat. Do not overheat.

As with all cast iron, the more the use, the easier the maintenance.

Note: Prior to storing, grease very lightly with solid vegetable shortening, then wipe dry with a paper towel. Store in a dry place.
