TYPE OF GAS
Your natural gas grill is factory built to operate using natural gas only. Never attempt to
operate your grill on gases other than the type specified on the grill rating plates.
Your grill operates at 7" of water column pressure. If replacement o1 the hose becomes
necessary, factory specified parts are required. See your local dealer.
For safety and design reasons, the conversion of a Weber _ grill from operation using
Natural gas to operation using LP gas is not allowed.
WHAT IS NATURAL GAS?
Natural gas, often called methane, is a safe modern fuel. Natural gas is supplied by your
local utility and should be readily available if your house isalready heated with gas. ®
NATURAL GAS CONNECTION
Uncoil the NG supply hose and route the end out the access hole at the back panel of
the cabinet (1).The 330 unit requires a 1/2" hose as opposed to the 3/8" hose for the
310 & 320. Weber e recommends moving the grill at least 24" from the gas supply and
any combustible surfaces. After the gas supply has been run and checked for leaks in
accordance to the assembly instructions, you are ready to grill. To connect the hose
to the gas supply, pull back the outer fitting, insert the hose fitting all of the way, and
release the outer fitting. This process will produce a gas joint. ®
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 in 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.
Check The Flexible Hose To Manifold Connection
The natural gas hose was attached during the manuafacturing process. We do
recommend that the hose to gas manifold connnection be leak tested, following

SEAR STATION _ BURNER iGNiTiON
The 330 model includes a sear burner. The sear burner also operates as an individual
burner. Therefore, ignition of the sear burner is the same as ignition of the main burner.
To ignite the sear burner refer to "MAIN BURNER iGNiTION'.' ÷
SEAR STATION e BURNER MANUAL IGNiTiON
To manually ignite the sear burner refer to "MAIN BURNER MANUAL IGNITION': ÷
USING THE SEAR STATION ®
Your Weber ¢ gas barbecue 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 OFF, START/HI, and LOW control setting that works
with the Left and Center burners. With the sear and adjacent burners you can effectively
sear meats while using the Right burner cooking area for grilling with moderate heat.
Before searing you should turn all of the main burners on HI for 15 minutes to preheat
the grill. Always grill with the lid closed to allow for maximum heat and to avoid flare ups.
Once the grill is preheated, turn the Right burner off or down. Leave the Left and Center
burners on HI and ignite the Sear Station ®burner.
Place the meat directly over the Sear Station ®. You will sear each side anywhere from
1 to 4 minutes, depending on the type of meat and thickness. 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 you can finish grilling by moving the meat to a more
moderate heat over the Right burner 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. ¢

o Always preheat the grill before cooking. Set all burners on HI heat and close lid; heat
for 10 minutes, or until thermometer registers 5000-550 ° 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, orthe 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 the 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 _Ainch
(6.4mm) 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 "over-
done."
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 individual burners as desired.The control settings (1) are OFF,
START/HI, MEDIUM, or LOW.
FLAVORIZER®SYSTEM
When meat juices drip from the food onto the specially angled Flavorizer ¢ bars,
they create smoke that gives foods an irresistible barbecued 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 barbecue may include a sear burner for searing thin meats and
fish. The Sear Station ®burner has an OFF, START/HI, or LOW 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 (330 MODEL)" section). ®

Note: The temperature inside your cookbox for the first few uses, while surfaces are still

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, turn off all burners and wait five minutes before
reNighting.
PREHEATING
Your Webei _ gas barbecue 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 Manual. 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.
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.
z_ 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.

WEBER ®SPIDER/INSECT SCREENS
Your Weber _ gas barbecue, as well as any outdoor gas appliance, is a target for spiders
and other insects. They can nest in the venturi section (1) of the burner tubes. This
blocks the normal gas flow, and can cause the gas to flow back out of the combustion air
opening. This could result in a fire in and around the combustion air openings, under the
control panel, causing serious damage to your barbecue.
The burner tube combustion air opening is fitted with a stainless steel screen (2) to
prevent spiders and other insects access to the burner tubes through the combustion air
openings.
We recommend that you inspect the Spider/Insect screens at least once a year.
(Refer to "ANNUAL MAINTENANCE") Also inspect and clean the the Spider/Insect
screens if any of the following symptoms should ever occur:
A) The smell of gas in conjunction with the burner flames appearing yellow and lazy.
B) Barbecue does not reach temperature.
C) Barbecue heats unevenly.
D) One or more of the burners do not ignite.
DANGER
Failure to correct the above mentioned symptoms may result
in a fire, which can cause serious bodily injury or death, and
cause damage to property.
