4GENERAL 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 diffi cult to duplicate with indoor kitchen appliances. The closed lid and Flavorizer® bars produce that “outdoor” fl avor 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 you if you move.

The natural 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.

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS	5

GRILLING METHODS

NOTE: If grill looses heat while cooking refer to the troubleshooting section of this manual.

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

You can adjust the Left and Right burners in each burner set as desired. The control settings are High (H), Medium (M), Low (L), or Off (O).

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.

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 energy-effi cient 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 fl avorful cooking. Excess drippings and grease will accumulate in the catch pan under the slide out bottom tray.

Disposable foil drip pans are available that fi t the catch pan.

WARNING: Check the bottom tray for grease build-up 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 area using the contact information on our website. Log onto www.weber.com®

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.

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 fl akes.

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.

Preserve Your Stainless Steel

Your grill or its cabinet, lid, control panel and shelves may be made from stainless steel. To keep the stainless steel looking its best is a simple matter. Clean it with soap and water, rinse with clear water and wipe dry. For stubborn particles, the use of anon-metallic brush can be used.

IMPORTANT: Do not use a wire brush or abrasive cleaners on the stainless steel surfaces of your grill as this will cause scratches.

IMPORTANT: When cleaning surfaces be sure to rub/ wipe in the direction of the grain to preserve the look of your stainless steel.

REINSTALL CONTROL PANEL

Parts required: control panel, screws, and burner control knobs.

Place the control panel back onto the control panel brackets on either side of the front of the cooking box.

Line up screws with screw holes on both the control panel and control panel brackets. Tighten screws.

Reinstall burner control knobs & igniter wires (if necessary).

Place corresponding control knobs down onto the valve stems. From the underside of the control panel, replace the two wires (1,2) of each igniter.

GRILLING METHODS

NOTE: If grill looses heat while cooking refer to the troubleshooting section of this manual.

You can adjust the Left and Right burners in each burner set as desired.

The control settings are High (H), Medium (M), Low (L), or Off (O).

If burners go out during cooking, turn off all burners and wait 5 minutes before relighting.

WARNING: Check the bottom tray and catch pan for grease build-up before each use. Remove excess grease to avoid a grease fire in the bottom tray.

Preheating

Preheating the grill before grilling is important. Light your Summit® gas grill according to the instructions in this Owner’s Manual. Turn both burners in each burner set to High (HH), close the lid, and preheat grill with the lid down until grill thermometer reaches 550ºF (260˚-288˚C).This is the recommended broiling temperature. This will take approximately 10 to

15 minutes, depending on outside temperatures.

Covered cooking

All grilling is done with the lid down to provide uniform, evenly circulated heat. With the lid closed, the Summit® gas grill cooks much like a convection oven. The thermometer in the lid indicates the cooking temperature inside the grill. All preheating and grilling is done with the lid down. No peeking — heat is lost every time you lift the lid.

Flavorizer® system

When meat juices drip from the food onto the specially angled Flavorizer® bars, they create smoke that gives foods an irresistible barbecued fl avor.

Thanks to the unique design of the burners, Flavorizer® bars and the fl exible temperature controls, uncontrolled fl are-ups are virtually eliminated, because YOU control the fl ames. Because of the special design of the Flavorizer® bars and burners, excess fats are directed through the funnel-shaped bottom tray into the grease catch pan.
