WARRANTY
Thank you for purchasing a WEBER® product. Weber-Stephen Products LLC, 200 East Daniels Road,
Palatine, Illinois 60067-6266 (“Weber”) prides itself on delivering a safe, durable, and reliable product.
This is Weber’s Voluntary Warranty provided to you at no extra charge. It contains the information you
will need to have your WEBER® product repaired in the unlikely event of a failure or defect.
Pursuant to applicable laws, the customer has several rights in case the product is defective. Those
rights include supplementary performance or replacement, abatement of the purchasing price, and
compensation. In the European Union, for example, this would be a two-year statutory warranty
starting on the date of the handover of the product. These and other statutory rights remain
unaffected by this warranty provision. In fact, this warranty grants additional rights to the Owner
that are independent from statutory warranty provisions.
WEBER’S VOLUNTARY WARRANTY
Weber warrants, to the purchaser of the WEBER® product (or in the case of a gift or promotional
situation, the person for whom it was purchased as a gift or promotional item), that the WEBER®
product is free from defects in material and workmanship for the period(s) of time specified below
when assembled and operated in accordance with the accompanying Owner’s Guide. (Note: If you lose

such country-specific website to which Owner may be redirected.) Under normal, private single family
home or apartment use and maintenance, Weber agrees within the framework of this warranty to
repair or replace defective parts within the applicable time periods, limitations and exclusions listed
below. TO THE EXTENT ALLOWABLE BY APPLICABLE LAW, THIS WARRANTY IS EXTENDED ONLY TO
THE ORIGINAL PURCHASER AND IS NOT TRANSFERABLE TO SUBSEQUENT OWNERS, EXCEPT IN THE

need to contact you.
The above warranty only applies if the Owner takes reasonable care of the WEBER® product by
following all assembly instructions, usage instructions, and preventative maintenance as outlined in

of non-compliance with the above mentioned obligations. If you live in a coastal area, or have your
product located near a pool, maintenance includes regular washing and rinsing of the exterior surfaces
as outlined in the accompanying Owner’s Guide.
WARRANTY HANDLING / EXCLUSION OF WARRANTY
If you believe that you have a part which is covered by this Warranty, please contact Weber Customer
Service using the contact information on our website (www.weber.com, or such country-specific
website to which Owner may be redirected). Weber will, upon investigation, repair or replace (at its
option) a defective part that is covered by this Warranty. In the event that repair or replacement are not
possible, Weber may choose (at its option) to replace the grill in question with a new grill of equal or
greater value. Weber may ask you to return parts for inspection, shipping charges to be pre-paid.
This WARRANTY lapses if there are damages, deteriorations, discolorations and/or rust for which
Weber is not responsible caused by:

GAS INSTRUCTIONS
SAFE HANDLING TIPS FOR LIQUID PROPANE GAS TANKS
• 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 tank, 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 fill, take the LP tank to a propane gas dealer, or look up “gas-propane” in the
phone book for other sources of LP gas.
m WARNING: We recommend that your LP tank be filled at an
authorized LP gas dealer, by a qualified attendant, who fills
the tank by weight. IMPROPER FILLING IS DANGEROUS.
• Air must be removed from a new LP tank before the initial filling. Your LP dealer is
equipped to do this.
• The LP tank must be installed, transported, and stored in an upright position. LP
tanks should not be dropped or handled roughly.
• Never store or transport the LP tank where temperatures can reach 125° F (too hot to
hold by hand). For example: do not leave the LP tank in a car on a hot day.
Note: A refill will last about 18–20 hours of cooking time at normal use. The fuel scale, a
feature on some of our grills, will indicate the propane supply so you can refill the tank
before running out. You do not have to run out before you refill.
• Treat “empty” LP tanks with the same care as when full. Even when the LP tank is
empty of liquid, there still may be gas pressure in the tank. Always close the tank
valve before disconnecting.
m CAUTION: Place dust cap on tank valve outlet whenever the
tank is not in use. Only install the type of dust cap on the
tank valve outlet that is provided with the tank valve. Other
types of caps or plugs may result in leakage of propane.
• Do not use a damaged LP tank. A dented or rusty LP tank or an LP tank with
a damaged valve may be hazardous and should be replaced with a new one
immediately.
• The joint where the hose connects to the LP tank must be leak tested each time the
LP tank is reconnected. For example, test each time the LP tank is refilled.
• Be sure the regulator is mounted with the small vent hole pointed downward so that it
will not collect water. This vent should be free of dirt, grease, bugs, etc.
• The gas connections supplied with your Weber® gas appliance have been designed
and tested to meet 100% CSA and ANSI requirements.
m WARNING: Replacement LP tanks must match the regulator
connection supplied with this Weber® gas appliance.
Liquid Propane Tank Requirements
• Check to be sure that tanks have a D.O.T. certification (1), and that they have been
date tested (2) is within five years of use. Your LP gas supplier can do this for you.
• All LP tank supply systems must include a collar to protect the tank valve.
• The LP tank must be a 20-lb. size approximately 18¼ inches high and 12¼ inches in
diameter.
• The tank must be constructed and marked in accordance with the Specifications
for LP - Gas Tanks of the U.S. Department of Transportation (D.O.T.) or the National
Standard of Canada, CAN/CSA-B339, Tanks, Spheres and Tubes or Transportation of
Dangerous Goods; and Commission, as applicable.
Canadian Liquid Propane Tank Requirements
Note: Your retailer can help you match a replacement tank to your grill.
• The LP tank must be constructed and marked in accordance with the specifications
for LP gas tanks, T.C.

IMPORTANT LP TANK INFORMATION
m DANGER
NEVER store a spare LP tank under or near Weber® gas
appliances. NEVER fill the tank beyond 80% full. Failure to
follow these statements exactly may result in a fire causing
death or serious injury.
Weber® gas appliances are equipped for a tank supply system designed for vapor
withdrawal.
m WARNING: Only use Weber® gas appliances outdoors in
a well-ventilated area. Do not use in a garage, building,
breezeway or any other enclosed area.
The proper filling methods for the filling of your tank are by weight or volume, as
described in NFPA 58. Please make sure your filling station fills your LP tank by weight
or volume. Ask your filling station to read purging and filling instructions on the LP tank
before attempting to fill.
◆
LEAK CHECK PREPARATION
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.
If they do turn, continue turning them clockwise until they stop, then they are off.
The Liquid Propane Tank
All Weber® liquid propane gas grill regulators are equipped with a UL-Listed tank
connection as per the latest edition of ANSI Z21.58. This will require a liquid propane
tank that is similarly equipped with a Type 1 connection in the tank valve. This Type 1
coupling allows you to make a fast and totally safe hookup between your gas grill and
your liquid propane tank. It eliminates the chance of leaks due to a POL fitting that is
not properly tightened. Gas will not flow from the tank unless the Type 1 coupling is fully
engaged into the coupling.
m WARNING: Make sure that the LP tank valve is closed. Close
by turning valve clockwise.

A) Locate hose retention clip (1) on regulator hose. Secure into slot (2) on underside of
tank scale.
m WARNING: The hose must be secured to the tank scale
with the Hose Retention Clip. Failure to do so could cause
damage to the hose resulting in a fire 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
(3). The other tanks mount with the valve facing away from the fuel scale (4). Weber
recommends the use of tank manufacturer’s Manchester and Worthington, with a 47.6 lb
water capacity. Other tanks may be acceptable for use with the appliance provided they
are compatible with the appliance retention means (see illustrations).
The LP tank is installed inside the base cabinet, on the tank scale (right side).
B) Open base cabinet doors.
C) Loosen tank lock wing nut. Swing tank lock up (5).
D) Turn the LP tank so the opening of the valve is either to the front or side of the
Weber® gas grill.
E) Lift tank up into position on the tank scale (6).
F) Swing the tank lock down. Tighten the wing nut.
Connect The Hose To The Tank
A) Remove the plastic dust cover from the valve.
B) Screw the regulator coupling onto the tank valve, clockwise, or to the right. Hand-
tighten only (7).
Note: This connection tightens clockwise and will not allow gas to flow unless the
connection is tight. The connection requires tightening by hand only.
m WARNING: Do not use a wrench to tighten the connection.
Using a wrench could damage the regulator coupling and
could cause a leak.

GRILLING TIPS & HELPFUL HINTS
APAGADO
• Always preheat the grill before cooking. Set all burners on HI heat and close lid; heat
for 10 minutes, or until thermometer registers 500° – 550° F (260° – 288°C).
• Sear meats and cook with the lid down for perfectly grilled food every time.
• Grilling times in recipes are based on 70°F (20°C) weather and little or no wind. Allow
more cooking time on cold or windy days, or at higher altitudes. Allow less cooking
time in extremely hot weather.
• Grilling times can vary because of the weather, or the amount, size, and shape of the
food being grilled.
• The temperature of your gas grill may run hotter than normal for the first few uses.
• Grilling conditions may require adjustment of the burner controls to attain the correct
cooking temperatures.
• In general, large pieces of meat will require more cooking time per pound than small
pieces of meat. Foods on a crowded cooking grate will require more cooking time
than just a few foods. Foods grilled in containers, such as baked beans, will require
more time if grilled in a deep casserole rather than a shallow baking pan.
• Trim excess fat from steaks, chops, and roasts, leaving no more than a scant ¼ inch
(6.4 mm) of fat. Less fat makes cleanup easier, and is a virtual guarantee against
unwanted flare-ups.
• Foods placed on the cooking grate directly above burners may require turning or
moving to a less hot area.
• Use tongs rather than a fork for turning and handling meats to avoid losing natural
juices. Use two spatulas for handling large whole fish.
• If an unwanted flare-up should occur, turn all burners off and move food to another
area of the cooking grate. Any flames will quickly subside. After flames subside, relight
the grill. NEVER USE WATER TO EXTINGUISH FLAMES ON A GAS GRILL.
• Some foods, such as a casserole or thin fish fillets, will require a container for grilling.
Disposable foil pans are very convenient, but any metal pan with ovenproof handles
can also be used.
• Always be sure the slide-out grease tray and catch pan are clean and free from
debris.
• Do not line the slide-out grease tray with foil. This could prevent the grease from
flowing into the catch pan.
• Using a timer will help to alert you when “well done” is about to become “overdone.”
PREHEATING
Your Weber® gas grill is an energy-efficient appliance. It operates at an economical low
BTU rate. Preheating the grill before grilling is important. Light your grill according to the
instructions in this Owner’s Guide. To preheat: after lighting, turn all burners to START/
HI, close the lid, and heat until the temperature reaches between 500° and 550° F (260°
and 290° C), the recommended broiling temperature. This will take 10 to 15 minutes
depending on conditions such as air temperature and wind.
You can adjust the individual burners as desired. The control settings are OFF,
START/HI, MEDIUM, or LOW (1).
FLAVORIZER® SYSTEM
When meat juices drip from the food onto the specially angled Flavorizer® bars, they
create smoke that gives foods an irresistible grilled flavor. Thanks to the unique design of
the burners, Flavorizer® bars and the flexible temperature controls, uncontrolled flare-ups
are virtually eliminated, because YOU control the flames. Because of the special design
of the Flavorizer® bars and burners, excess fats are directed through the slide-out grease
tray into the grease catch pan.
SEAR STATION
Your Weber® gas grill may include a sear burner for searing thin meats and fish. The
Sear Station® burner has an ON or OFF control setting (2) that works with the two
adjacent main burners. With the sear and adjacent burners, you can effectively sear
meats while using other cooking areas for cooking with moderate heat (refer to “SEAR
STATION® IGNITION & USAGE”).

Note: For the first few uses of your grill, the temperature inside the cookbox may be
hotter than shown in your cookbook because the surfaces of the cookbox are still
reflective. Cooking conditions, such as wind and weather, may require adjustment of
burner controls to obtain the correct cooking temperatures.
Note: If grill loses heat while cooking, refer to the troubleshooting section of this manual.
m WARNING: Do not move the Weber® gas grill when operating
or while grill is hot.
If burners go out during cooking, turn all burner knobs off and wait five minutes
before relighting.
◆
COVERED COOKING
All grilling is done with the lid down to provide uniform, evenly circulated heat. With the
lid closed, the 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.
◆
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 grease tray. Disposable foil drip pans are available that fit the catch pan.
m WARNING: Check the slide-out grease tray and catch pan
for grease build-up before each use. Remove excess grease
to avoid a grease fire in the slide-out grease tray.
◆

COOKING METHODS
The most important thing to know about grilling is which cooking method to use for a
specific food, direct or indirect. The difference is simple: place the food directly over the
fire, or arrange the fire on either side of it. Using the right method is the shortest route to
great results—and the best way to ensure doneness safety.
◆
DIRECT COOKING
The direct method, similar to broiling, means the food is cooked directly over the heat
source. For even cooking, food should be turned once halfway through the grilling time.
Use the direct method for foods that take less than 25 minutes to cook: steaks, chops,
kabobs, sausages, vegetables, and more.
Direct cooking is also necessary to sear meats. Searing creates that wonderful crisp,
caramelized texture where the food touches the grate. It also adds great color and flavor
to the entire surface. Steaks, chops, chicken breasts, and larger cuts of meat all benefit
from searing.
To sear meats, place them over direct high heat for two to five minutes per side. Smaller
pieces require less searing time. Usually after searing the food, you finish cooking it at a
lower temperature. You can finish cooking fast-cooking foods by the direct method; use
the indirect method for longer-cooking foods.
To set up your gas grill for direct cooking, preheat the grill with all burners on HI. Place
food on the cooking grate, and then adjust all burners to the temperature noted in the
recipe. Close the lid of the grill and lift it only to turn food or to test for doneness at the
end of the recommended cooking time.
◆
INDIRECT COOKING
The indirect method is similar to roasting, but with the added benefits of that grilled
texture, flavor, and appearance you can’t get from cooking with an oven. To set up for
indirect cooking, light gas burners on either side of the food but not directly beneath it.
Heat rises, reflects off the lid and inside surfaces of the grill, and circulates to slowly
cook the food evenly on all sides, much like a convection oven, so there’s no need to
turn the food.
Use the indirect method for foods that require 25 minutes or more of grilling time, or that
are so delicate that direct exposure to the flame would dry them out or scorch them.
Examples include roasts, ribs, whole chickens, turkeys, and other large cuts of meat, as
well as delicate fish fillets.
To set up your gas grill for indirect cooking, preheat the grill with all burners on HI. Then
adjust the burners on each side of the food to the temperature noted in the recipe, and
turn off the burner(s) directly below the food. For best results, place roasts, poultry, or
large cuts of meat on a roasting rack set inside a disposable, heavy-gauge foil pan.
For longer cooking times, add water to the foil pan to keep drippings from burning. The
drippings can be used to make gravies or sauces.

4 BURNER
USING THE SEAR STATION
Your Weber® gas grill includes a sear burner for searing meats such as steak, poultry
parts, fish, and chops.
Searing is a direct grilling technique which browns the surface of the food at a high
temperature. By searing or browning both sides of the meat, you will create a more
desirable flavor by caramelizing the food surface. Searing will also enhance appearance
of the meat with sear marks from the cooking grates. This, along with the contrast of
textures and flavors, can make food more interesting to the palate.
The Sear Station® burner has an on or off control setting that works with the two
adjacent main burners. With the sear and adjacent burners, you can effectively sear
meats while using other cooking areas for grilling with moderate heat.
Before searing food, you should turn all of the main burners on HI for 15 minutes to
preheat the grill. Note: Always grill with the lid closed to allow for maximum heat and to
avoid flare-ups.
Once the grill is preheated, turn the outer burners off or down to low. Leave the center
two burners on HI and ignite the Sear Station® burner.
Place the meat directly over the Sear Station®. You will sear each side anywhere from
one to four minutes, depending on the type and thickness of the meat. You may turn the
food a quarter turn to make crossing sear marks (1) before you sear the other side in the
same manner.
Once you are done searing the meat, you can finish grilling it by moving it to a more
moderate heat over the outside burners to achieve the desired doneness.
As you gain experience in using your Sear Station®, we encourage you to experiment
with different searing times to find results that work best for your taste.

SMOKER BURNER IGNITION & USAGE
USING THE SMOKER
The smoker uses presoaked wood chips. For best results with faster cooking foods like
steaks, burgers, and chops, etc., we recommend using finer wood chips because they
ignite and create smoke faster. For longer cooking foods such as roasts, chicken, and
turkeys, etc., we recommend using larger wood chunks because they ignite slowly and
provide smoke for a longer period of time. As you gain experience in using your smoker,
we encourage you to experiment with different combinations of wood chips and chunks
to find the smoke flavor that best suits your taste.
As a starting point, soak wood chips in water for at least 30 minutes before using. (Wet
wood will produce more smoke flavor.) Place a handful of wood chips or a few larger
chunks in the bottom of the smoker body (1). As you gain experience in smoking,
increase or decrease the amount of wood to suit your taste.
Note: Always grill with the lid closed to allow the smoke to fully penetrate the food.
Light the smoker burner by following the instructions for “SMOKER BURNER
IGNITION.” After wood starts to smolder, turn control knob to LOW.
Smoke will start in approximately 10 minutes and last as long as 45 minutes. If you
require more smoke flavor, refill the smoker with wood chips and/or chunks. Keep the lid
of the grill closed while cooking.
Note: After refilling smoker, smoke will take about 10 to 15 minutes to start again. The
smoker may be used to enhance meat, poultry, and fish recipes. Cook with the lid down
according to the times indicated in charts or recipes.
m DANGER
Do not use any flammable fluid in the smoker to ignite the
wood. This will cause serious bodily injury.
CLEANING THE SMOKER
Before each use, empty the smoker of ash to allow proper air flow.
Note: Smoking will leave a “smoke” residue on the surface of the smoker. This residue
cannot be removed and will not affect the function of the smoker. To a lesser degree, a
“smoke” residue will accumulate on the inside of your gas grill. This residue need not
be removed and will not adversely affect the function of your gas grill.
