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 fi rst few uses, while
surfaces are still very refl ective, 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
fi ve 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 fi re 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 cook-
ing grates in a self-cleaning oven.
For availability of replacement cooking grates and Flavorizer® bars
contact the Customer Service.
Outside surfaces - Use a warm soapy water solution to clean, then rinse
with water.
CAUTION: Do not use oven cleaner, abrasive cleans-
ers (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

and fi lling instructions on the LP cylinder before attempting to fi ll.
CHECK THAT ALL BURNER VALVES ARE OFF
Valves are shipped in the OFF position, but you should check to be sure that
they are turned OFF. Check by pushing down and turning clockwise. If they
do not turn, they are off. Proceed to the next step. If they do turn continue
turning them clockwise until they stop, then they are off. Proceed to the next
step.
DANGER
Do not use an open fl ame to check for gas leaks. Be
sure there are no sparks or open fl ames in the area
while you check for leaks. Sparks or fl ames will result
in a fi re or explosion which can cause serious bodily
injury or death, and damage to property.
Some LP tanks have differing top collar assembles. (The top collar is the
metal protective ring around the valve.) One series of tanks mount with the
valve facing front. The other tanks mount with the valve facing away from
the fuel scale. These types of tanks are illustrated below.
You will need: LP cylinder, a soap and water solution and a rag or brush to
apply it.
1) Turn the LP cylinder so the opening of the valve is either to the front,
side or rear of the Weber® gas barbecue. Lift and hook the cylinder onto
the fuel gauge.
2) Loosen the cylinder lock wing nut. Swing the cylinder lock down.
Tighten the wing nut.
To Connect the hose to the cylinder:
3) Remove the plastic dust cover from the valve.
4) Screw the regulator coupling onto the tank valve, clockwise, or to the
right. Hand-tighten only.
GAS INSTRUCTIONS
Note: This connection tightens clockwise and will not allow gas to fl ow unless
the connection is tight. The connection requires tightening by hand only.
WARNING: Do not use a wrench to tighten the

SAFE HANDLING TIPS FOR LIQUID PROPANE GAS
CYLINDERS
• Liquid Propane (LP) gas is a petroleum product as are gasoline and
natural gas. LP gas is a gas at regular temperatures and pressures.
Under moderate pressure, inside a cylinder, LP gas is a liquid. As the
pressure is released, the liquid readily vaporizes and becomes gas.
• LP gas has an odor similar to natural gas. You should be aware of this
odor.
• LP gas is heavier than air. Leaking LP gas may collect in low areas and
prevent dispersion.
• To fi ll, take the LP cylinder to an RV center, or look up “gas-propane” in
the phone book for other sources of LP gas.
WARNING: We recommend that your LP cylinder be
fi lled at an authorized LP gas dealer, by a qualifi ed
attendant, who fi lls the tank by weight. IMPROPER
FILLING IS DANGEROUS.
