General Instructions

Your Weber Gas Barbecue is a stationary outdoor cooking
appliance. With the Weber Gas Barbecue you can grill,
barbecue, roast and bake with results that are difficult to
duplicate with indoor kitchen appliances. The closed lid and
Flavorizer Bars produce that "outdoor" flavor in the food.

The natural gas supply is easy to use and gives you more
cooking control than charcoal fuel.

■ These instructions will give you the minimum
requirements for assembling your Weber Gas
Barbecue. Please read the instructions carefully
before using your Weber Gas Barbecue. Improper
assembly can be dangerous.

■ Not for use by children.

■

If there are local codes that apply to gas grills, you

will

have to conform to them. If there are no local codes,
you must conform to the latest edition of the National
Fuel Gas Code: ANSI Z 223.1.

■

This Weber Gas Barbecue is designed for natural
(piped in city) gas only. Do not use Liquid Propane
(LP) bottled gas. The valves and orifices are for
natural gas only.

■ Do not use with charcoal fuel.

■ Check that the area under the control panel and the

bottom tray are free from debris that might obstruct
the flow of combustion or ventilation air.

Storage

■ The gas must be turned OFF at the natural gas supply
when the Weber Gas Barbecue is not in use.

Operating area

WARNING: Only use this barbecue outdoors in a
well ventilated area. Do not use in a garage, building,
breezeway or any other enclosed area.

■ Never use your Weber Gas Barbecue under an
unprotected combustible roof or overhang.

■ Your Weber Gas Barbecue is not intended to be
installed in or on recreational vehicles and/or boats.

■ Do not use combustible materials within 24 inches of
the top, bottom, back or sides of the grill.

■ The entire cooking box gets hot when in use. Do not
leave unattended.

■ Keep any electrical supply cord away from any heated
surface.

■ Keep the cooking area clear of flammable vapors and
liquids, such as gasoline, alcohol, etc., and

combustible materials.

Gas supply testing

■ Disconnect your Weber Gas Barbecue when the gas
supply is being tested at high pressures. This
appliance and its individual shutoff valve must be
disconnected from the gas supply piping system
during any pressure testing of that system at test
pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).

■ Turn off your Weber Gas Barbecue when the gas
supply is being tested at low pressures. This appliance
must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by
closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any
pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at the
pressure equal to or less than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).

General Specifications for
Piping

American National Standards Institute (ANSI)
Recommendations for gas supply installations:

Connections:

■ This barbecue is designed to operate at 7 inches of
water column pressure (.2526 psi).

■ A manual shut-off valve must be installed outdoors,
immediately ahead of any connections or change in

pipe material.

■ An additional manual shut-off valve indoors should be
installed in the branch fuel line in an accessible

location near the supply line.

■ The point of tie into the branch line should be carefully
selected to avoid a drip leg or be downstream of a

valve controlling another appliance.

■ Pipe compound should be used which is resistant to
action of natural gas when connections are made.

■ The outdoor connector must be firmly attached to
rigid, permanent construction.

Gas line piping

■ If the length of line required does not exceed 50 feet,
use a 5/8" O.D. tube. One size larger should be used

for lengths greater than 50 feet.

■ Indoor and above ground piping can be steel or copper.

Steel

New standard weight (Schedule 40) steel pipe with
malleable iron fittings.

Copper

New copper tubing type K or L.
Copper tubing must meet requirements of ASTM B88

latest edition.
Use flared fittings. Metallic ball sleeve compression fittings

must not be used.
Copper tube joints may be soldered or brazed with material

having a melting point in excess of 1,000°F.

Outside underground piping

Outside underground piping may be copper tubing, type
K or L (ASTM B88) or polyethylene plastic tube PE3306
(Minimum wall thickness .062") meeting ASTM 2513,
latest specifications.

Steel pipe is not recommended for underground use
unless it is protected with an approved coating, insulated
from hose piping and cathodically protected.

It is recommended that copper tubing be corrosion
protected with a satisfactory material such as TC Mastic.

All buried fittings should be corrosion protected with a
satisfactory material such as TC Mastic.

Underground piping must have a minimum of 10" cover.

Plastic tubing

Plastic tubing is suitable only for outside underground use.

■ The transition from metallic pipe to plastic pipe should
be made outside and at least 10" underground.

■ When compression or crimp type mechanical joints
are used with plastic pipe, it is advisable to use an

internal rigid stiffener in conjunction with the fitting.

■ The stiffener should be assembled flush with the end
of the tube and extend at least to the outside edge of

the compression fitting.

Testing connections

You will need a soap and water solution and a rag or
brush to apply it.

All connections and joints must be thoroughly tested for
leaks after gas has been turned into the line.

Notice Before Installation

Contact your local municipality for any building codes regulating outdoor barbecue installations. In absence of

local codes, you must conform to the latest edition of ANSI Z223.1.

WE RECOMMEND THAT THIS INSTALLATION BE DONE BY A PROFESSIONAL.

 DANGER

Do not use an open flame to check for
gas leaks. Be sure there are no sparks or
open flames in the area while you check
for gas leaks. This will result in a fire or
explosion which can cause serious bodily
injury or death, and damage to property.

Wet the fitting with a soap and water solution. Any bubbles
that form or grow indicate a leak. If bubbles occur shut off
gas, tighten the fitting, and retest.

WARNING: If a leak persists after tightening the
fitting, turn gas off at the supply. DO NOT OPERATE
YOUR BARBECUE. Contact Weber-Stephen Customer
Service.

Check for gas leaks

 DANGER

Do not use an open flame to check for gas
leaks. Be sure there are no sparks or open
flames in the area while you check for
leaks.This will result in a fire or explosion
which can cause serious bodily injury or
death and damage to property.

WARNING: You should check for gas leaks every
time you disconnect and reconnect a gas fitting.

Note - All factory made connections have been thoroughly
checked for gas leaks.The burners have been flame
tested. As a safety precaution you should recheck all
fittings for leaks before using your Weber Gas Barbecue.
Shipping and handling may have loosened or damaged a
gas fitting.

WARNING: Perform these leak checks even if your
barbecue was dealer or store assembled.

You will need: soap and water solution and a rag or brush
to apply it.

To perform leak checks: Turn ON gas supply at the source.
Figure 21.

WARNING: Do not ignite burners while leak checking.

Check for leaks by wetting the connections with the soap

Cooking

You can adjust the FRONT, CENTER and BACK burners
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 FRONT, CENTER, and BACK burners. For example, to
sear steaks you would use (HHH) (all burners at high).
Then to complete cooking you would use (MOM) (FRONT
at medium, CENTER off, and BACK at medium). See your
Weber cookbook for detailed cooking instructions.

Note: The temperatures inside your cooking box, for the
first few uses, while surfaces are still very reflective, may
be hotter than those shown in your cookbook. Cooking
conditions may require the adjustment of the burner
controls to attain the correct cooking temperatures.

CAUTION: Replace thermometer in lid when not in
use. Do not leave thermometer in food while cooking.

If burners go out during cooking, open lid, turn off all
burners and wait 5 minutes before relighting.

Preheating

Your Weber Gas Barbecue is an energy efficient appliance.
It operates at a low B.T.U. rate for economy. To preheat,
after lighting, close lid and turn all burners to high (HHH).
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 right
amount of drippings for flavorful cooking. Excess drippings
and grease accumulate in the catch pan under the bottom
tray . Disposable foil liners are available that fit the catch pan.

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

Periodic Cleaning

CAUTION: Turn your Weber Gas Barbecue OFF and
wait for it to cool before cleaning.

CAUTION: Do not c lean your Flavorizer Bars or
cooking grates in a self-cleaning oven. Replacement
cooking grates and Flavorizer Bars are a v ailab le
through your retailer or the Weber-Stephen Customer
Service Center.

Outside surfaces - Use a warm soapy water solution.
CAUTION: Do not use o ven cleaner, abrasive

cleansers (kitchen cleansers) cleaners that contain
citrus products or abrasive cleaning pads on barbecue
or cart surfaces.

Bottom tray - Remove excess grease and then wash with

warm soapy water.
Flavorizer Bars and Cooking Grates - Clean with a

suitable brass bristle brush. As needed, remove from grill
and wash with warm soapy water.

Catch pan - Disposable foil trays are available, or you can
line the catch pan with aluminum foil. To clean the catch
pan, wash with warm soapy water.

Thermometer - Wipe with warm soapy water, clean with
plastic scrub ball. Do not put in dishwasher or submerge
in water.

Inside cooking box - Brush any debris off of burners tubes.
DO NOT ENLARGE BURNER PORTS (OPENINGS).

Wash inside of cooking box with warm soapy water.
Inside Lid - While lid is warm, wipe inside with paper towel

to prevent flaking due to grease build-up.
Work tab les and accessory tra ys - Use any household

cleaners on these surfaces except those that contain acid,
mineral spirits or Xylene. Rinse well after cleaning.

After a Period of Nonuse

■ The Weber Gas Barbecue should be checked for gas
leaks and any obstructions in the burner tubes before

using. (See Sections General and Annual Maintenance.)

■ 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 Stopper Guards should also be checked for
any obstructions. (See Section "Annual Maintenance.")

■ Keep the appliance area clear and free from
combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable

vapors and liquids.

the following maintenance procedures for your safety.

WARNING: Check gas supply line before each use
of barbecue for nicks or cracking. If the gas supply
line is found to be damaged in any way, do not use the
barbecue. Replace using only Weber authorized
replacement gas supply line. Order from Weber­Stephen Products Co., Customer Service Center.

CA UTION: If the barbecue gas suppl y line is damaged
in any way or leaking, do not use the barbecue.

■ Inspect the burners for correct flame pattern. Clean if
necessary, following the procedures outlined in the

"General Maintenance" section of this manual.

■ Check all gas fittings for leaks.

 DANGER

Do not use an open flame to check for gas
leaks. Be sure there are no sparks or open
flames in the area while you check for
leaks. This will result in a fire or explosion
which can cause serious bodily injury or
death, and damage to property.

WARNING: You should check for gas leaks every
time you disconnect and reconnect a gas fitting.

You will need: a soap and water solution and a rag or
brush to apply it.

To perform leak checks: Make sure all burners are in the
OFF position. Turn on gas supply.

Refer to the steps “Add side panels” and “Add base panel”
to remove the panels to expose the gas supply line for
leak checking.

WARNING: Do not ignite burners while leak checking.

Check for leaks by wetting the connections with the soap
and water solution and watching for bubbles. If bubbles
form or if a bubble grows there is a leak.

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.

Check:
a) Gas supply line to manifold connection. Figure 3 (a).

WARNING: If there is a leak at connection (a),
retighten the fitting with a wrench and recheck for
leaks with soap and water solution.

If a leak persists after retightening the fitting, turn OFF
the gas. DO NOT OPERATE THE BARBECUE. Contact
Weber-Stephen Customer Service.

b) Valves to manifold connections. Figure 3 (b).
c) Barbecue gas supply line to natural gas supply

connection. Figure 3 (c).

WARNING: If there is a leak at connections (b) or (c),
turn OFF the gas. DO NOT OPERATE THE BARBECUE.
Contact Weber-Stephen Customer Service.

When leak checks are complete, see steps “Add side
panels” and “Add base panel” to reinstall. Turn gas supply
OFF at the source and rinse connections with water.

Inspection and Cleaning of the Weber Spider
Stopper Guards

To inspect the Spider Stopper Guards, remove the control
panel and look to see if they have dust or dirt on their outside
surfaces. If they are dirty, brush off the outside surface of the
Spider Stopper Guards with a soft bristle brush (an old
toothbrush for example). Check that there are no gaps in the
Spider Stopper Guards’ seams or in the fit around the
burners or valves. (See Section "General Maintenance".)

General Maintenance

Weber Spider Stopper Guards

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 of the burner tubes. This
blocks the normal gas flow, and can cause the gas to flow
back out of the air shutter. Figure 4. This could result in a
fire in and around the air shutters, under the control panel,
causing serious damage to your barbecue.

The Weber Spider Stopper Guard is factory installed. It fits
tightly around the air shutter section of the burner tube and
the valve, thereby preventing spiders and other insects
access to the burner tubes through the air shutter openings.
Figure 5.

We recommend that you inspect the Weber Spider
Stopper Guards at least once a year. (See section
“Annual Maintenance”.) Also inspect and clean the
Spider Stopper Guards 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.

Main Burner Flame Pattern

The Weber Gas Barbecue burners have been factory set
for the correct air and gas mixture. The correct flame
pattern is shown in Figure 6.

If the flames do not appear to be uniform the length of the
burner tube, follow the burner cleaning procedures.

Main Burner Cleaning Procedure

Turn off the gas supply. Remove the manifold. (See

Section “Replacing the main burners”.)
Look inside each burner with a flashlight. Figure 7.

Clean the inside of the burners with a wire (a straightened
out coat hanger will work). Figure 8. Check and clean the
air shutter opening at the ends of the burners. Check and
clean the valve orifices at the base of the valves. Use a
brass bristle brush to clean outside of burners. This is to
make sure all the burner ports are fully open.

CAUTION: Do not enlarge the burner ports when
cleaning.

Replacing Main Burners

a) Your Weber Gas Barbecue must be OFF and cool.
b) Turn gas OFF at source.
c) Remove control panel: take off the burner control

knobs. Remove the screws holding the control panel
in place. Lift off the control panel.

Crossover Ignition System Operations

If the Crossover Ignition System fails to ignite the Front
burner, light the Front burner with a match. If the Front
burner lights with a match, then check the Crossover
Ignition System.

■ Check that both the white and black ignition wires are
attached properly. Figure 15.

■ Check that the Crossover Ignition button pushes the
igniter (button) down, and returns to the up position.

■ Check to see if the igniter is loose in the frame.
Tighten if necessary; see Step “Install igniter” for

correct procedure.

If the Crossover Ignition System still fails to light, See
Section "Manual Lighting", and contact Weber-Stephen
Customer Service.

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 Weber Spider Stopper
Guards for possible obstructions.
(Blockage of holes.)

Is natural gas supply on ?
Does the Front burner light with a

match?

Were natural gas lines purged?
(Air removed)

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 Weber Spider Stopper
Guards. (See Section "Annual
Maintenance".)

Turn on natural gas supply.
If you can light the Front

burner with a match, then
check the Crossover Ignition
System.

Purge the natural gas lines.
See Step “Purge air from gas
lines.”

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

Clean thoroughly. (See
Section "Periodic Cleaning".)

Clean bottom tray.

Clean burners. (See Section
"General Maintenance".)

Clean thoroughly. (See
Section "Periodic Cleaning".)
