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.

CLEANING

■ When storing the Weber Gas Barbecue, make sure
that the inside shut off valve and/or locking outdoor
shut off valve is secured in the OFF position. When
the Weber Gas Barbecue is stored indoors, the gas
supply MUST BE DISCONNECTED.

■ After a period of storage and/or nonuse the Weber
Gas Grill should be checked for gas leaks and any
obstructions in the burner tubes before using. (See
Maintenance Section.)

■ Check that the areas under the control panel and the
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 Maintenance Section.)

STORAGE

You can adjust the LEFT and RIGHT bur ners 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 LEFT

Note: Cooking conditions may require the adjustment of
the burner controls.

If burners go out during cooking, turn off all burners

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

The Steam-N-Chips Smoker cooks with both Weber
FireSpice Wood Chips and Chunks. For best results with
faster cooking foods like steaks, burgers and chops, etc.,
we recommend using the FireSpice Chips because they
ignite and create smoke faster.For longer cooking foods
such as roasts, chicken and turkeys, etc., we recommend
using FireSpice Chunks because they ignite slowly and
provide smoke for a longer period of time.As you gain
experience in using your Steam-N-Chips Smoker, we
encourage you to experiment with different combinations of
FireSpice Chips and Chunks to find the smoke flavor that
best suits your taste.

To use the Steam-N-Chips Smoker

As a starting point, place a handful of FireSpice Chips or a
few FireSpice Chunks in the bottom of the smoker body.
Figure 4. Since the chunks vary in size, place as many as
you can in the smoker allowing room for the water pan.As
you gain experience in smoking, increase or decrease the
amount of wood to suit your taste.Fill water pan, place it in
the smoker and close the smoker lid.

Cleaning the Steam-N-Chips Smoker

Before each use, empty the Steam-N-Chips 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 Steam-N-Chips
Smoker.To a lesser degree a "smoke" residue will
accumulate on the inside of your Weber Gas Barbecue.
This residue need not be removed and will not adversely
affect the function of your Weber Gas Barbecue.

Note - Remove the Steam-N-Chips Smoker when it
is not in use. If it is left in the barbecue, grease and
cooking debris can accumulate on the cover.

 DANGER

Do not use any flammable fluid in the
Steam-N-Chips Smoker to ignite the wood.
This will cause serious bodily injury.

Place wood in here

Figure 4

Water Pan

Steam-N-Chips Body

USING THE STEAM-N-CHIPS SMOKER

Light the barbecue and preheat with all burners on HIGH,
lid down, for 10 minutes or until the thermometer registers
500°F - 550°F. Adjust the burners for cooking; MM or LL will
be your best settings for long duration smoking.Smoke will
start in approximately 10 minutes and last as long as 45
minutes.If you require more smoke flavor, refill the smoker
with FireSpice Chips and/or Chunks and refill the water pan
with water.The Steam-N-Chips Smoker may be used to
enhance any of the meat, poultry and fish recipes in the
gas barbecue cookbook. Cook with the lid down according
to the times indicated in charts or recipes.

Note - After refilling smoker, smoke will take about 10 to
15 minutes to start again.

Spider/Insect screens

Your Gas Barbecue, as well as any outdoor gas
appliance, is a target for spiders and other insects.They
can nest in the venturi section of the burner tubes.This
blocks the normal gas flow, and can cause the gas to flow
back out of the air shutter. Figure 5.This could result in a
fire in and around the air shutters, under the control
panel, causing serious damage to your barbecue.

Figure 5

Venturi

We recommend that you inspect the Spider/Insect
screens at least once a year. Also inspect and clean
the Spider/Insect screens if any of the following
symptoms should ever occur.

1. The smell of gas in conjunction with the burner
flames appearing yellow and lazy.

2. Barbecue does not reach temperature.

3. Barbecue heats unevenly.

4. One or more of the burners do not ignite.

 DANGER

Failure to correct these symptoms may
result in a fire which can cause serious
bodily injury or death and cause damage
to property.

MAINTENANCE

Inspection and cleaning of the Spider/Insect screens

To inspect the spider/insect screens, remove the control
panel. If there is dust or dirt on the screens, remove the
burners for cleaning the screens.Refer to Maintenance,
Replacing Main Burners. Brush the spider/inspect
screens, lightly, with a soft bristle brush (i.e. an old
toothbrush).

Caution: Do not clean the spider/insect screens

with hard or sharp tools. Do not dislodge the
spider/insect screens or enlarge the screen openings.

Lightly tap the burner to get debris and dirt out of the
burner tube. Once the spider/insect screens and burners
are clean replace the burners.

If the spider/insect screen becomes damaged or cannot
be cleaned, call Weber-Stephen Products Customer
Service for replacement parts.

The burner tube air shutter is fitted with a stainless steel
screen to prevent spiders and other insects access to the
burner tubes through the air shutter openings. Figure 6.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Problem

Burners burn with a yellow or orange flame, in
conjunction with the smell of gas.

Burner does not light, or flame is low
in HIGH position.

Experiencing flare-ups:

CAUTION: Do not line the bottom tray with
aluminum foil.

Burner flame pattern is erratic. Flame is low
when burner is on HIGH. Flames do not run
the whole length of the burner tube.

Inside of lid appears to be “peeling.”
(Resembles paint peeling.)

Check

Inspect Spider/Insect Screens for
possible obstructions. (Blockage of
holes.)

Is fuel hose bent or kinked?

Does the Left burner light with a
match?

Are you preheating barbecue in the
prescribed manner?

Are the cooking grates and
Flavorizer Bars heavily coated with
burned-on grease?

Is the bottom tray "dirty" and not
allowing grease to flow into catch pan?

Are burners clean?

The lid is porcelain-on-steel, not
paint. It cannot “peel.”What you are
seeing is baked on grease that has
turned to carbon and is flaking off.

THIS IS NOT A DEFECT.

Cure

Clean Spider/Insect Screens.
(See Maintenance Section.)

Straighten fuel hose.

If you can light the Left burner
with a match, then check the
Crossover Ignition System.
(See Maintenance Section.)

All burners on high for 10 to 15
minutes for preheating.

Clean thoroughly. (See
Cleaning Section.)

Clean bottom tray.

Clean burners. (See
Maintenance Section.)

Clean thoroughly. (See
Cleaning Section.)

If the problem cannot be corrected using these methods, please contact your Weber-Stephen Customer Service.
