The Flame - Direct or Indirect

Tips and Hints

HIGH

DIRECT HEAT

SETUP

Use the direct method for small, tender pieces of food that take less than 20 minutes to cook, suchas: hamburgers, steaks, chops, kabobs, boneless chicken pieces, ﬁsh ﬁllets, shellﬁsh, and slicedvegetables.

With direct heat, the ﬁre is right below the food. It sears the surfaces of the food, developing ﬂavors, texture, and delicious caramelization while cooking the food all the way to thecenter.

OFF

MEDIUM

INDIRECT HEAT

SETUP

Use the indirect method for larger cuts of meat that require 20 minutes or more of grilling time, or for foods so delicate that direct exposure to the heat would dry them out or scorch them, such as: roasts, bone-in poultry pieces, whole ﬁsh, delicate ﬁsh ﬁllets, whole chickens, turkeys, and ribs. Indirect heat can also be used for ﬁnishing thicker foods or bone-in cuts that have been seared or browned ﬁrst over direct heat.

With indirect heat, the heat is on both sides of the grill, or o to one side of the grill. The food sits over the unlit part on the cooking grate.

Tips and Hints

GrillingDo’s andDon’ts

Preheat each and every time.

If the cooking grates aren’t hot enough, food will stick, and you will likely never have a chance of searing properly or developing those handsome grill marks. Even if a recipe calls for medium or low heat, always preheat the grill on the highest setting ﬁrst. Open the lid, turn up the heat, close the lid, and then let the cooking grate heat up for about ten minutes or until the lid thermometer reads 500° F (260° C).

Don't grill on dirty grates.

Tossing food onto the cooking grates before they have been cleaned is never a good idea. Leftover “stu” on the grates acts like glue, binding it to the grates and your new food. To avoid tasting last night’s dinner on today’s lunch, make sure you are grilling on a clean cooking grate. Once the grates are preheated, use a stainless steel bristle grill brush to make a clean, smooth surface.

Be present in the process.

Before ﬁring up your grill, make sure that everything you need is within arm’s reach. Don’t forget your essential grilling tools, already oiled and seasoned food, glazes or sauces, and clean cooking platters for cooked food. Having to run back to your kitchen not only means missing out on the fun, but could also result in burning your food. French chefs call this “mise en place” (meaning, “put in place”). We call it “being present”.

Create a little elbow room.

Packing too much food onto the cooking grates restricts your ﬂexibility. Leave at least one-quarter of the cooking grates clear, with plenty of space between each food item, in order to get your tongs in there and easily move the food around. Sometimes grilling involves split-second decisions and the ability to jockey food from one area to another. Sogive yourself enough room to operate.

Try not to peek.

The lid on your grill is for more than just keeping the rain out. Most importantly, it’s for preventing too much air from getting in, and too much heat and smoke from getting out. When the lid is closed, the cooking grates are hotter, the grilling times are faster, the smoky tastes are stronger, and the ﬂare-ups are fewer. So put a lid on it!

Only flip once.

What’s better than a juicy steak with a deep sear and plenty of beautifully caramelized bits? The key to accomplishing these results is to keep your food in place. Sometimes we have the tendency to ﬂip our food before it reaches the desirable level of color and ﬂavor. In nearly all cases, you should turn food just once. If ﬁddling with it more than that, you are probably also opening the lid too much, which causes its own set of problems. So step back and trust the grill.

Know when to tame the flame.

When grilling, sometimes the most important thing to know is when to stop. The most reliable way to test doneness of your food is to invest in an instant-read thermometer. This slim little gem will help you pinpoint that critical moment when your food is at its best.

Don’t be afraid to experiment.

Back in the 1950s, grilling meant one thing: meat (and only meat) charred over open ﬂames. The modern day backyard chef doesn’t need a kitchen in order to prepare a full course meal. Use your grill to make chargrilled appetizers, sides, and even desserts. Register your grill to receive special content that will inspire you along the way. We’d love to join you on your grilling adventures.

Optimize Grill Space

Using the TUCKAWAY Warming Rack

Use the warming rack up to keep food warm or fold it down when not in use. To fold the warming rack down, lift rack slightly and rotate downward. Use heat-resistant mitts or gloves when adjusting rack.

Important Information about LPGas & Gas Connections

What Is LP Gas?

Liqueﬁed petroleum gas, also called LP, LP gas, liquid propane, or simply propane or butane, is the ﬂammable, petroleum-based product used to fuel your grill. It is a gas at moderate temperatures and pressure when it is not contained. But at moderate pressure inside a container, such as a tank, LP is a liquid. As pressure is released from the tank, the liquid readily vaporizes and becomes gas.

Safe Handling Tips For LP Tanks

Getting Started

• A dented or rusty liquid propane tank may be hazardous and should be checked by your liquid propane supplier. Donot use a liquid propane tank with a damaged valve.

• Although your liquid propane tank may appear to be empty, gas may still be present, and the tank should be transported and stored accordingly.

• The LP tank must be installed, transported, and stored in an upright, secure position. LP tanks should not be dropped or handled roughly.

• Never store or transport the LP tank where temperatures can reach 125° F (51.7° C) (the tank will become too hot to hold by hand).

• 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.

LP Tank Requirements

• The tank must be approximately 18¼inches (46.35 cm) high and 12¼ inches (31.1 cm) in diameter with a marked 20 pound (9.07 kg) LPG capacity or 47.6 pound (21.6 kg) water capacity as stated by the manufacturer. Other tanks may be acceptable provided they are compatible with the grill retention means (tank scale).

• The tank used must be constructed and marked in accordance with the Speciﬁcations for LP gas Cylinders of the U.S. Department of Transportation (D.O.T.); or the Canadian Standard for Cylinders, Spheres and Tubes for Transportation of Dangerous Goods and Commission, CAN/CSA-B339, as applicable.

• Tanks must be provided with a listed OPD (Overﬁlling Prevention Device) and a Type 1 (CGA 810) tank connection. The tank connection must be compatible with the grill connection.

• The tank must include a collar to protect the tank valve.

• Tanks must have a D.O.T. certiﬁcation (A), and a testing date (B) that is within ﬁve years of current use.

What is a Regulator?

Your gas grill is equipped with a pressure regulator, which is a device to control and maintain uniform gas pressure as gas is released from the LP tank.

Regulator Requirements

• The regulator and hose assembly supplied with this grill must be used. This regulator has a ﬂow limiting device built into the unit that will restrict the ﬂow of gas in the event that a leak is detected.

• Replacement regulator and hose assemblies must be as speciﬁed by Weber-Stephen Products LLC (UL-listed Type 1 (CGA 810) tank connection device as described in the latest edition of ANSI Z21.81).

LP Tank Installation & LeakChecking

Installation Location

The tank is hung onto the tank scale which is located outside the cabinet base under the right side table. The shape of the collar assembly (the metal protective ring around the tank valve) determines one of two directions in which the tank will correctly hang on the tank scale (A).

Inspect the Tank

1) Conﬁrm that the tank valve is fully closed. Close by turning valve clockwise.

2) Conﬁrm that the tank valve is the proper mating type for the regulator (B).

3) Inspect the tank valve, including the internal rubber seal for damage or debris (C). If damaged, return tank to local retailer.

Install The Tank

1) Check that all burner control knobs are in the o position. Check by pushing in and turning knobs clockwise.

2) Loosen hand nut and rotate tank lock up(D).

3) Lift tank into position on the tank scale (E).

4) Rotate the tank lock down. Tighten the hand nut.

5) Screw the regulator coupling onto the tank valve, turning clockwise (F). Hand-tighten only. Using a wrench could damage the regulator coupling and could cause a leak. Proceed to “CHECKING FOR GASLEAKS.”

Getting Started

What is a Leak Check?

Once the LP tank is properly installed, it is necessary to perform a leak check. A leak check is a reliable way to verify that gas is not escaping after you connect the tank. The fuel system in your grill features factorymade connections that have been thoroughly checked for gas leaks and the burners have been ﬂame-tested. WEBER recommends performing a thorough leak check after assembly, as well as annually. The following ﬁttings should be tested:

• Where the regulator connects to the tank.

• Where the gas hose connects to the bulkhead.

• Where the bulkhead connects to the corrugated gas line.

Getting Started

Checking for Gas Leaks

1) Wet ﬁttings (G) with a soap and water solution,

using a spray bottle, brush, or rag. You can make your own soap and water solution by mixing 20% liquid soap with 80% water; or, you can purchase leak check solution in the plumbing section of any hardware store.

2) Slowly open gas supply by turning tank valve

counterclockwise while checking for bubbles.

3) If bubbles appear there is a leak:

a) If the leak is at the cylinder (H), turn o the gas.

DONOT OPERATE THE GRILL. Disconnect the tank and return the tank to your local retailer.

b) If the leak is at the regulator (I), turn o the

gas. DONOT OPERATE THE GRILL. Contact the Customer Service Representative in your area using the contact information on our website.

c) If the leak is at any ﬁttings indicated in

illustration (J), re-tighten ﬁtting with a wrench and recheck for leaks with soap and water solution. If leak persists, turn o the gas. DO NOT OPERATE THE GRILL.

d) If the leak is at any ﬁttings indicated in

illustration (K), turn o the gas. DO NOT OPERATE THE GRILL.

If a leak is present, contact the Customer Service

Representative in your area using the contact information on our website.

4) If bubbles do not appear, leak checking is complete:

a) Turn gas supply o at the tank and rinse

connections with water.

NOTE: Since some leak test solutions, including soap and water, may be slightly corrosive, all connections should be rinsed with water after checking for leaks.

m DANGER: Do not use a ﬂame to check for gas

leaks. Besure there are no sparks or open ﬂames in the area while you check for leaks.

m DANGER: Leaking gas may cause a ﬁre or

explosion.

m DANGER: Do not operate the grill if there is a

gas leak present.

m DANGER: If you see, smell, or hear the hiss of

gas escaping from the liquid propane tank:

1) Move away from liquid propane tank.

2) Do not attempt to correct the problem yourself.

3) Call your ﬁre department.

m DANGER: Always close the tank valve before

disconnecting the regulator. Do not attempt to disconnect the gas regulator and hose assembly or any gas ﬁtting while this grill is in operation.

m DANGER: Do not store a spare LP tank under

or near this grill. Never ﬁll the tank beyond 80% full. Failure to follow these statements exactly may result in a ﬁre causing death or serious injury.

Refilling or Replacing an LPTank

Getting Started

How Much Fuel is in the Tank?

The tank scale indicates the amount of fuel in a standard 20 pound (9.07 kg) tank once the tank is hung from the scale. The fuel level is checked by viewing the red level indicator line, located on scale. When the indicator line is at the top, the tank is full (L). When it is at the bottom, the tank is empty(M) and needs to be removed to replace or reﬁll.

Removal of the LP Tank

1) Conﬁrm that the tank valve is fully closed. Close by

turning valve clockwise (N).

2) Unscrew regulator coupling by turning

counterclockwise by hand (O).

3) Loosen tank hand nut and turn tank lock up out of the way.

4) Lift tank o tank scale.

Additional Leak Check Precautions

The following ﬁttings should be tested for gas leaks each time a tank is reﬁlled and reinstalled:

• Where the regulator connects to the tank (H) and at

the regulator (I).

Follow the instructions for "Checking for Gas Leaks".

•

Look for a basting brush with heat-

The Very First Time You Grill

Perform an Initial Burn-Off

Heat the grill on the highest setting, with the lid closed, for at least 20 minutes prior to grilling for the ﬁrsttime.

Every Time You Grill

Operation

Meal-to-Meal Maintenance

The Meal-To-Meal Maintenance plan includes the following simple, yet important, steps that should always be performed prior to grilling.

Check for Grease

Your grill was built with a grease management system that funnels grease away from food and into a disposable container. As you cook, grease is channeled down the slide-out grease tray and into a disposable drip tray that lines the catch pan. This system should be cleaned each and every time you grill to preventﬁres.

1. Conﬁrm that the grill is o and cool.

2. Remove the slide-out grease tray by pulling the tray

out of the cabinet (A). Remove excess grease with a plastic scraper.

3. Remove the catch pan (B). Check for excessive

amounts of grease in the disposable drip pan that lines the catch pan. Discard disposable drip pan when necessary and replace with a new one.

4. Reinstall all components.

Inspect the Hose

Routine inspection of the hose is necessary.

1. Conﬁrm that the grill is o and cool.

2. Check hose for any signs of cracking, abrasions, or

cuts(C). If the hose is found to be damaged in any way, do not use the grill.

Preheat the Grill

Preheating the grill is critical to successful grilling. Preheating helps to prevent food from sticking to the grate and gets the grate hot enough to sear properly. Italso burns o residue of a previously cooked meal.

1. Open the grill lid.

2. Ignite your grill according to the ignition instructions

in this Owner's Manual.

3. Close lid.

4. Preheat the grill with all burners on the start/high

position for 10 to 15 minutes or until thermometer registers 500° F (260° C)(D).

Clean the Cooking Grate

After preheating, any bits of food or debris left over from previous use will be easier to remove. Cleaned grates will also prevent your next meal from sticking.

1. Brush the grates with a stainless steel bristle grill

brush immediately after preheating (E).

m DANGER: Do not line the slide-out grease tray

or cookbox with aluminum foil.

m DANGER: Check the slide-out grease tray and

catch pan for grease build-up before each use. Remove excess grease to avoid a grease ﬁre.

m WARNING: Use heat-resistant barbecue mitts

or gloves when operating grill.

m WARNING: Grill brushes should be checked for

loose bristles and excessive wear on a regular basis. Replace brush if any loose bristles are found on cooking grates or brush. WEBER recommends purchasing a new stainless steel bristle grill brush at the beginning of every spring.

m WARNING: If the hose is found to be damaged

in any way, do not use the grill. Replace using only WEBER authorized replacement hose.

m WARNING: Keep ventilation openings around

tank clear and free of debris.

Igniting the Grill

Operation

Using the Electronic Ignition System to Ignite the Grill

Each control knob operates an individual burner, and each burner ignites independently. Ignite the burners starting from left to right. All burners should be lit for preheating, however, all burners do not have to be lit while grilling.

1) Open the grill lid (A).

2) Check that all burner control knobs are in the o position. Check by pushing in and turning knobs

clockwise (B).

Note: It is important that all burner control knobs are in the o position before turning on the LP tank. If they are not, the ﬂow limiting device built into the regulator will activate, limiting the ﬂow of gas from the LP tank.

3) Turn the LP tank on by slowly turning the tank valve

counterclockwise; wait 60 seconds (C).

Note: It is important that the LP tank is turned on slowly. Ifit is opened too quickly, the ﬂow limiting device built into the regulator will activate, limiting the ﬂow of gas from the LP tank.

4) Begin with the burner furthest to the left. Push the

burner control knob in and turn it counterclockwise to the start/high

5) Push and hold the electronic ignition button (E).

Youwill hear it ticking.

6) Check that the burner is lit by looking through the

cooking grates and through the half-circle cutout in the FLAVORIZER bar.

7) If the burner does not ignite, turn burner control

knob to the o allow the gas to clear before attempting to light the burner again.

8) If the burner ignites, repeat steps 4 through 6 to

light the remaining burners.

Should the burners fail to ignite using the electronic ignition, refer to the TROUBLESHOOTING section. Thereyou will ﬁnd instructions on igniting the grill with a match to help determine the exact problem.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Cleaning the Inside of the Grill

Over time, the per formance of your grill can diminish if it has not been maintained properly. Low temperatures, uneven heat, and food sticking to cooking grates are all signs that cleaning and maintenance are overdue. When your grill is o and cool, start by cleaning the inside, from the top down. A thorough cleaning is recommended at least twice a year. Consistent use may require quarterly cleanings.

Product Care

Cleaning the Lid

From time to time you may notice “paint-like” ﬂakes on the inside of the lid. During use, grease and smoke vapors slowly change into carbon and deposit on the inside of your lid. These deposits will eventually peel, and looks very similar to paint. These deposits are non-toxic, but the ﬂakes could fall onto your food if you do not clean the lid regularly.

1) Brush the carbonized grease from the inside of the

lid with a stainless steel bristle grill brush (A). To minimize further build-up, the inside of the lid can be wiped with a paper towel after grilling while the grill is still warm (nothot).

Cleaning the Cooking Grates

If you have been cleaning your cooking grates as recommended, the debris on your grates should be minimal.

1) With grates installed, brush the debris o your cooking grate with a stainless steel bristle grill brush(B).

2) Take the grates out and set aside.

Cleaning the FLAVORIZERBARS

FLAVORIZER BARS catch drippings that smoke and sizzle, adding ﬂavor to your food. Any drippings that are not vaporized by the FLAVORIZER BARS are funneled away from the burners. This helps prevent ﬂare-ups inside of your grill, and protects the burners from getting clogged.

1) Scrape the FLAVORIZER BARS with a plastic scraper(C).

2) If necessary, brush the FL AVORIZER BARS with a stainless steel bristle grill brush.

3) Remove FLAVORIZER BARS and set aside.

Cleaning the Burners

Two areas on the burners that are key to optimum performance are the ports (small raised openings running along the length of the burners) and the spider/insect screens on the ends of the burner. Keeping these areas clean is essential for safe operation.

Cleaning the Burner Ports

1) Use a clean stainless steel bristle grill brush to clean the outside of the burners by brushing across the top of the burner ports (D).

2) When cleaning the burners, avoid damaging the ignition electrode by carefully brushing around it(E).

Cleaning the Spider Screens

1) Locate the ends of the burners on the underside of the control panel where they meet the valves.

2) Clean the spider/insect screens on each of the burners using a sof t bristle brush (F).

REPLACEMENT

PARTS

To obtain replacement parts,

contact the local retailer

in your area or log onto

weber.com.

m WARNING: Turn your grill o and wait for it to

cool before thoroughly cleaning.

m WARNING: Over time, the development of

rough surfaces can form on the FLAVORIZER BARS. Wearing gloves is recommended when handling. Do not clean FLAVORIZER BARS or cooking grates in a sink, dishwasher, or selfcleaning oven.

m WARNING: When cleaning the burners, never

use a brush that has already been used to clean the cooking grates. Never put sharp objects into the burner port holes.

m CAUTION: Do not place any grill components

onto the side tables as they may scratch the paint or stainless steel surfaces.

m CAUTION: Do not use any of the following

to clean your grill: abrasive stainless steel polishes or paints, cleaners that contain acid, mineral spirits or xylene, oven cleaner, abrasive cleansers (kitchen cleansers), or abrasive cleaning pads.

Cleaning the Heat Deflectors

Located under the burners, the heat deﬂectors distribute heat evenly throughout the cookbox while cooking. Keeping heat deﬂectors clean will enhance the cooking performance of your grill.

1) Scrape the heat deﬂectors with a plastic

scraper(G).

2) If necessary, brush the heat deﬂectors with a stainless steel bristle grill brush.

3) Remove heat deﬂectors and set aside.

Cleaning the Cookbox

Look inside the cookbox for any grease accumulation or leftover food particles. Excessive accumulation can cause a ﬁre.

1) Use a plastic scraper to scrape debris o the sides and bottom of the grill into the opening in bottom of the cookbox(H). This opening leads debris into the slide-out grease tray.

Cleaning the Grease ManagementSystem

The grease management system consists of an angled slide-out grease tray and a catch pan. These components were designed to be easily removed, cleaned, and replaced; an essential step every time you prepare to grill. Instructions on inspecting the grease management system can be found in MEAL-TOMEAL MAINTENANCE.

Cleaning the Outside of theGrill

The outside of your grill may include stainless steel, porcelain-enameled, and plastic surfaces. WEBER recommends the following methods based on the surfacetype.

Cleaning Stainless Steel Surfaces

Clean stainless steel using a non-toxic, non-abrasive stainless steel cleaner or polish designed for use on outdoor products and grills. Use a microﬁber cloth to clean in the direction of the grain of the stainless steel. Donot use paper towels.

Note: Do not risk scratching your stainless steel with abrasive pastes. Pastes do not clean or polish. They will change the color of the metal by removing the top chromium oxide ﬁlm coating.

Cleaning Painted, Porcelain-Enameled Surfaces and PlasticComponents

Clean painted, porcelain-enameled and plastic components with warm soapy water, and paper towels or cloth. After wiping down the surfaces, rinse and dry thoroughly.

Cleaning the Outside of Grills that are in Unique Environments

If your grill is subject to a particularly harsh environment, you will want to clean the outside more often. Acid rain, pool chemicals, and salt water can cause surface rusting to appear. Wipe down the outside of your grill with warm soapy water. Follow up with a rinse and thorough drying. Additionally, you may want to apply a stainless steel cleaner weekly to prevent surface rust.

GRILL WILL NOT IGNITE

SYMPTOM

• Burner does not ignite when following the electronic ignition instructions in the “Operation” section of this Owner's Manual.

CAUSE SOLUTION

There is a problem with gas ﬂow. If the grill will not ignite, the ﬁrst step is to determine if there is gas ﬂowing to the burners. Tocheck this,

There is a problem with the electronic ignition system. If the grill will not ignite, the ﬁrst step is to determine if there is gas ﬂowing to the burners. Tocheck this,

follow the instructions below for “Using a Match to Determine if there is Gas Flow to the Burners.” If match lighting IS NOT successful, follow the gas ﬂow troubleshooting suggestions on the next page.

IgnitionSystem.”

Troubleshooting

Using a Match to Determine if there is Gas Flow to the Burners

1) Open the grill lid.

2) Check that all burner control knobs are in the position. Check by pushing in and turning

o knobs clockwise.

Note: It is important that all burner control knobs be in the o position before you turn on the LP tank. If they are not, the ﬂow limiting device built into the regulator will activate, limiting the ﬂow of gas from the LP tank.

3) Turn the LP tank on by slowly turning the tank valve

counterclockwise; wait 60 seconds.

4) Begin with the burner furthest to the left. Put

match in the matchstick holder and strike match. (Matchstick holder is located under right side table.) Insert lit match down through the cooking grates, past the FLAVORIZER BARS and next to the burner(A).

5) Push the burner control knob in and turn it

counterclockwise to the start/high

6) Check that the burner is lit by looking through the

cooking grates and through the half-circle cutout in the FLAVORIZER BAR.

Checking the Components of the Electronic Ignition System

When pressing the ignition button you should hear a ticking sound. If you cannot hear the ticking sound, check the batter y, then check the wires.

Checking the Battery

There are three potential issues with the battery that supplies the power to your ignition module that need to be checked:

1) Some batteries have a plastic protective wrap around them. (Do not confuse this plastic with the battery label.) Check that this plastic wrap is removed.

2) Conﬁrm that the battery is installed correctly (C).

3) If the battery is old, replace it with a new battery.

Checking the Wires

There are two potential trouble spots that need to be checked:

1) Check that the ignition wires are connected securely to the terminals on the ignition button under the control panel.

2) Make sure the ignition wires are properly attached to the ignition module. The wire terminals are color coded to correspond with the terminals on the ignition module. The number of wires will vary per model.

Checking the Ground Wire

Models 310, 315 and 435 have a ground wire connected to the manifold bracket. This is visible from beneath the control panel (D):

1) Check that the ground wire is properly secured with a screw.

GAS FLOW

SYMPTOM

• Grill does not reach desired temperature or heatsunevenly.

• One or more of the burners fail to ignite.

• Flame is low when burner is on high position.

• Flames do not run the whole length of the burner.

• Burner flame pattern is erratic.

CAUSE SOLUTION

The “ﬂow limiting device” has been activated. Thissafety feature built into the regulator restricts the gas ﬂow in the event of a gas leak. You can inadvertently activate this safety feature without having a gas leak. This typically occurs when you turn on the gas at the LP tank and one or more of the control knobs are not in the o position. It may also occur if you turn on the LP tank too quickly.

The LP tank is low or empty. Reﬁll LP tank.

Fuel hose is bent or kinked. Straighten fuel hose.

Burner ports are dirty. Clean burner ports. Refer to “Cleaning the

Reset the “ﬂow limiting device” by closing the LP tank valve and turning all the burner control knobs to the o position. Wait ﬁve minutes to allow accumulated gas to dissipate, then ignite the grill again following the instructions in the “Operation” section.

BurnerPorts.”

Troubleshooting

Proper Burner Flame Pattern

The burners in your grill were factor y set for the correct air and gas mixture. When the burners are performing correctly, you will see a speciﬁc ﬂame pattern. The tips may occasionally ﬂicker yellow (A), with a descending light blue (B) to dark blue ﬂame (C).

SYMPTOM

• Gas is smelled in conjunction with burner flames that appear yellow andlazy.

CAUSE SOLUTION

Spider screens on the burners are obstructed. Clean spider screens. Refer to “Cleaning the Spider

Screens” in the Product Care section. Also refer to the illustrations and information in this section about proper ﬂame pattern and spiderscreens.

SYMPTOM

• The smell of gas and/or a light hissing sound.

CAUSE SOLUTION

The internal rubber seal in the LP tank valve could be damaged.

Inspect the rubber seal for damage. If damaged, return tank to local retailer.

GREASY GRILL (Peeling Paint & Flare-Ups)

SYMPTOM

• Inside of lid appears to have the appearance of peelingpaint.

CAUSE SOLUTION

The ﬂakes you see are accumulated cooking vapors that have turned into carbon.

This happens over time after repeated use of your grill. This is not a defect. Clean the lid. Refer to the “Product Care” section.

Spider Screens

The combustion air openings of the burners(D) are ﬁtted with stainless steel screens to prevent spiders and other insects from spinning webs and building nests inside the burners. Additionally, dust and debris can accumulate on the outside of the spider/insect screen and obstruct the oxygen ﬂow to the burners.

SYMPTOM

• Experiencing flare-ups when grilling or preheating.

CAUSE SOLUTION

There is leftover food from the previous meal. Always preheat the grill on the highest setting for 10

to 15 minutes.

The inside of the grill needs to be cleaned thoroughly. Follow the steps in the "Cleaning and Maintenance"

section to clean the grill inside from the top down.

m WARNING: Do not attempt to make any repair to gas carrying, gas burning, ignition components or

structural components without contacting Weber-Stephen Products LLC, Customer Service Department.

m WARNING: Failure to use genuine Weber-Stephen parts for any repair or replacement will void all

warranty protection.

The cuts, thicknesses, weights, and grilling times above are meant to be guidelines. Factors such as altitude, wind, and outside temperature can aect cooking times. Two rules of thumb: Grill steaks, ﬁsh ﬁllets, boneless chicken pieces, and vegetables using the direct method for the time given on the chart (or to the desired doneness), turning food once halfway through grilling time. Grill roasts, whole poultry, bone-in poultry pieces, whole ﬁsh, and thicker cuts using the indirect method for the time given on the chart (or until an instant-read thermometer registers the desired internal temperature). Cooking times for beef and lamb use the USDA’s deﬁnition of medium doneness unless otherwise noted. Before carving, let roasts, larger cuts of meat, and thick chops and steaks rest for 5 to 10 minutes after cooking. The internal temperature of the meat will rise by 5 to 10 degrees during this time.

La llama: directa o indirecta

Consejos y sugerencias

CONFIGURACIÓN PARA

CALOR DIRECTO

ALT O

Usa el método directo para cocinar alimentos tiernos de pequeño tamaño que requieran menos de 20 minutos de cocción, como hamburguesas, ﬁletes, chuletas, kebabs, piezas de pollo sin hueso, pescado en ﬁletes, marisco y verduras en rodajas.

Con calor directo, el fuego se sitúa justo bajo el alimento. La superﬁcie se dora, se desarrollan los sabores y texturas, ytiene lugar una deliciosa caramelización, mientras que el alimento se cocina hasta el centro.

CONFIGURACIÓN PARA

CALOR INDIRECTO

APAGADO

MEDIO

Usa el método indirecto para cortes de carne más gruesos que requieran un tiempo de cocción superior a 20 minutos o alimentos tan delicados que la exposición directa al calor pudiera secarlos o quemarlos, como asados, piezas de pollo con hueso, pescados enteros, ﬁletes de pescado delicados, pollos enteros, pavos o costillas. El calor indirecto se puede usar también para acabar alimentos muy gruesos o cortes con hueso previamente dorados o tostados con calor directo.

El método indirecto permite repartir el calor por ambos lados de la parrilla o concentrarlo sólo en uno de ellos. Coloca el alimento en la parte de la parrilla de cocción que no esté encendida.

Consejos y sugerencias

Qué hacer y qué no hacer al cocinar a la parrilla

Precalienta siempre el asador antes decocinar.

Si las parrillas de cocción no están lo suﬁcientemente calientes, los alimentos se pegarán y no podrás dorar tus piezas de carne ni disfrutar de esas atractivas marcas de parrilla. Incluso aunque la receta indique que debes cocinar a fuego medio o bajo, precalienta antes el asador a fuego máximo. Abre la tapa, sube el fuego, cierra la tapa y deja que la parrilla de cocción se caliente durante unos diez minutos o hasta que el termómetro de la tapa indique 260 °C (500 °F).

No cocines en parrillas sucias.

Cocinar alimentos en una parrilla de cocción sucia nunca es una buena idea. Los restos de alimentos adheridos a las parrillas son como pegamento y acaban adhiriéndose también a los alimentos nuevos. Si no quieres saborear la cena de ayer en el almuerzo de hoy, asegúrate de borrar la pizarra antes de empezar. Cuando las parrillas estén calientes, usa un cepillo con cerdas de acero inoxidable para limpiar y suavizar la superﬁcie.

Mantente presente.

Antes de encender el asador, asegúrate de tener todo lo que necesites al alcance del brazo. No olvides tus principales herramientas de parrillada, los alimentos ya engrasados y sazonados, los glaseados o salsas que quieras usar, así como bandejas limpias para la comida cocinada. Tener que volver a la cocina no sólo signiﬁca perderse parte de la diversión, sino que puede ser el principio de una comida quemada. Los chefs franceses llaman a esto mise en place (algo así como “puesta en escena”). Nosotros lo llamamos estar presente.

No cocines demasiados alimentos ala vez.

Poner demasiada comida en las parrillas de cocción limita tu ﬂexibilidad. Mantén despejada, al menos, una cuarta parte de las parrillas de cocción, con espacio suﬁciente entre los alimentos para introducir las pinzas y moverlos con libertad. A veces, cocinar a la parrilla requiere tomar decisiones en pocos segundos, y para eso es fundamental poder mover los alimentos de una zona a otra. Ofrécete espacio suﬁciente para trabajar.

Mantén a raya tu curiosidad.

La tapa del asador no sólo sirve para protegerlo de la lluvia. También, y más importante, impide que entre demasiado aire y que salga demasiado calor y humo. Cuando la tapa está cerrada, las parrillas de cocción están más calientes, los alimentos se asan en menos tiempo, los sabores ahumados son más intensos y se producen menos llamaradas. ¡Así que pon la tapa!

Voltea una sola vez.

¿Hay algo mejor que una jugosa pieza de carne con marcas profundas y preciosos bordes caramelizados? La clave para conseguir esos resultados es no tocar el alimento. A veces sentimos la tentación de voltear los alimentos antes de que alcancen el nivel deseado de color y sabor. En casi todos los casos, no hace falta voltear los alimentos más de una vez. Si lo haces más veces, probablemente también estés abriendo la tapa con demasiada frecuencia, dando lugar a otros problemas. Da un paso atrás y confía en tuasador.

Controla tu fuego interior.

A veces, lo más importante al cocinar a la parrilla es saber cuándo parar. La forma más conﬁable de comprobar si un alimento está hecho es consultar el termómetro. Esta pequeña joya te permitirá determinar el momento justo para servir.

No tengas miedo de experimentar.

En la década de 1950, cocinar a la parrilla signiﬁcaba una única cosa: carne (y sólo carne) carbonizada sobre una llama abierta. Los chefs modernos no necesitan una cocina para preparar una comida completa. Usa tu asador para cocinar aperitivos, guarniciones e incluso postres. Registra tu asador y recibe contenidos especiales e ideas que seguro disfrutarás poniendo en práctica. Nos encantará acompañarte en tus aventuras alaparrilla.

Optimiza el espacio alrededor de tu asador

Uso del soporte para calentar TUCKAWAY

Usa el soporte para calentar para mantener los alimentos calientes y pliégalo cuando termines de usarlo. Para plegar el soporte para calentar, levántalo un poco y gíralo hacia abajo. Usa manoplas o guantes resistentes al calor al ajustar el soporte.

Información importante acercadel gas LP y las conexiones de gas

¿Qué es el gas LP?

El gas licuado de petróleo, también conocido como LP, gas LP, propano líquido o, simplemente, propano o butano, es un producto inﬂamable con base de petróleo que debes usar como combustible para tu asador. A temperaturas y presiones moderadas, fuera de un contenedor, es un gas. Sin embargo, a presiones moderadas dentro de un contenedor (como un tanque), el LP es un líquido. Conforme se libera la presión del tanque, el líquido se evapora rápidamente,

Primeros pasos

convirtiéndose en gas LP.

Consejos de seguridad para la manipulación de tanques de LP

• Los tanques de propano líquido abollados u oxidados pueden representar un riesgo y deben ser comprobados por tu proveedor de propano líquido. No uses tanques de propano líquido cuya válvula esté dañada.

• Aunque un tanque de propano líquido parezca estar vacío, puede que aún contenga gas, por lo que debe transportarse y almacenarse tomando las precauciones adecuadas.

• Los tanques de LP deben instalarse, transportarse y almacenarse en posición vertical y ﬁja. Evita que puedan caerse y no los manipules con brusquedad.

• No almacenes ni transportes un tanque de LP en lugares en los que la temperatura pudiera alcanzar los125 °F (51.7 °C) (el tanque se calentaría demasiado como para sujetarlo con la mano).

• Coloque una tapa antipolvo a la salida de la válvula del tanque cuando este no se encuentre en uso. En la salida de la válvula del tanque, solamente instale el tipo de tapa antipolvo que viene provisto con la válvula del tanque. Otros tipos de tapas o tapones podrían resultar en fugas de propano.

Requisitos que debe cumplir un tanque de LP

• El tanque debe medir, aproximadamente, 18¼pulgadas (46,35 cm) de altura y 12¼ pulgadas (31,1 cm) de diámetro. Asimismo, debe poseer una capacidad de 20 libra (9,07 kg) de gas LP o 47.6 libra (21,6 kg) de agua, según lo indicado por el fabricante. Puede que sea aceptable también el uso de otros tanques, siempre que sean compatibles con los medios de retención delasador (báscula del tanque).

• El tanque debe haber sido fabricado y estar marcado de acuerdo con las especiﬁcaciones establecidas por las siguientes normas, según corresponda: “Speciﬁcations for LP gas Cylinders of the U.S. Department of Transportation (D.O.T.)”; o “Canadian Standard for Cylinders, Spheres and Tubes for Transportation of Dangerous Goods and Commission, CAN/CSA-B339”.

• Los tanques deben equiparse con un dispositivo homologado de protección de sobrellenado (OPD) y una conexión de tanque de Tipo 1 (CGA 810). La conexión de tanque debe ser compatible con la conexión del asador.

• El tanque debe incluir un collarín que proteja la válvula.

• Los tanques deben poseer certiﬁcación D.O.T. (A) y su fecha de ensayo (B) no debe ser anterior a cinco años desde la fecha de uso.

¿Qué es un regulador?

Tu asador está equipado con un regulador de presión, que es un dispositivo destinado a controlar y mantener uniforme la presión de gas mientras lo libera el tanque de LP.

Requisitos que debe cumplir el regulador

• Usa el conjunto formado por el regulador y la manguera suministrados con el asador. Este regulador posee un dispositivo limitador de caudal integrado en la unidad que restringe el caudal de gas en caso de detección de una fuga de gas.

• La sustitución del conjunto formado por el regulador yla manguera debe realizarse según lo especiﬁcado por Weber-Stephen Products LLC (dispositivo de conexión a tanque de Tipo 1 con homologación UL (CGA 810), según lo descrito en la última edición de lanorma ANSIZ21.81).

Instalación de un tanque de LP y prueba de fugas

Lugar de instalación

Cuelga el tanque de la báscula situada fuera de la base del gabinete, bajo la mesa lateral derecha. La forma del collarín (la placa circular que protege la válvula) determina las dos direcciones en las que se puede colgar el tanque de la báscula (A).

Inspección del tanque

1) Comprueba que la válvula del tanque se encuentre completamente cerrada. Ciérrala girándola en el sentido de las agujas del reloj.

2) Comprueba que la válvula del tanque sea compatible con el regulador (B).

3) Inspecciona la válvula del tanque, incluido el sello de caucho interno, en busca de daños o residuos (C). Si detectas algún daño en el tanque, devuélvelo a tu distribuidor local.

Instalación del tanque

1) Comprueba que los mandos de los quemadores estén todos en la posición de cierre . Asegúrate presionando los mandos y girándolos en el sentido de las agujas del reloj.

2) Aﬂoja la tuerca manual y gira el seguro del tanque (D).

3) Cuelga el tanque de la báscula (E).

4) Gira de nuevo el seguro del tanque. Aprieta la tuerca manual.

5) Enrosca el acoplamiento del regulador en la válvula del tanque girándolo en el sentido de las agujas del reloj (F). Hazlo sólo con la mano. Si usas una llave, podrías dañar el acoplamiento del regulador y provocar una fuga. Pasa a la sección PRUEBA DE FUGAS DE GAS.
