IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT NATURAL GAS

WHAT IS NATURAL GAS?

Natural gas (NG) is often called methane. Natural gas is supplied by your local utility and should be readily available if your house is already heated with gas.

NATURAL GAS — THE BASICS

There are various guidelines and safety factors that you need to keep in mind when using natural gas (NG). Carefully follow these instructions before using your Weber® gas grill.

• 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.

• This Weber Do not use liquid propane (LP) bottled gas. The valves, orifices and hose are for natural gas only.

• Before using an NG grill, you need to make sure that the branch supply line from your house to your grill is properly installed.

• Not for use by children.

PIPING SPECIFICATIONS

Contact your local municipality for building codes regulating outdoor gas grill installations. In the absence of local codes, installation must conform to the latest edition of the National Fuel Gas Code: ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, or CAN/ CGA-B149.1, Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code. WE

RECOMMEND THAT THIS INSTALLATION BE DONE BY A PROFESSIONAL.

Following are some general requirements taken from the code(s).

• This grill is designed to operate at 7" of water column pressure (.2526 psi).

• A manual shutoff valve must be installed outdoors, immediately prior to the quick-disconnect.

• An additional manual shutoff valve should be installed indoors in the branch fuel line, in an accessible location near the supply line.

• The quick-disconnect connects to a 3/8" NPT thread from the gas source. The quick disconnect fitting is a hand-operated device that automatically shuts off the flow of gas from the source when the grill is disconnected.

• The quick-disconnect fitting can be installed horizontally or pointing downward, but never pointing upward. Installing it with the open end pointing upward can result in water and debris collecting in the quick-disconnect fitting.

• The dust covers (plastic plugs supplied with your grill) help keep the open ends of the quick-disconnect fitting clean while disconnected.

• When making connections, only use pipe compound that is resistant to the action of natural gas.

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

m WARNING: Do not route the ten-foot

hose under a deck. The hose must be visible.

• For the correct size and length of gas line piping, refer to the latest edition of the National Fuel Gas Code: ANSI Z 223.1/NFPA 54, or CAN/CGA-B149.1, Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code.

• Gas piping may be copper tubing, type K or L; polyethylene plastic tube, with a minimum wall thickness of .062"; or standard weight (schedule 40) steel or wrought-iron pipe.

gas grill is designed for natural gas only.

• Copper tubing must be tin lined if the gas contains more than 0.3 grams of hydrogen sulfide per 100 cubic feet of gas.

• Plastic tubing is suitable only for outdoor, underground use.

• Gas piping in contact with earth, or any other material which may corrode the piping, must be protected against corrosion in an approved manner.

• Underground piping must have a minimum of 18" cover.

PREPARING TO USE YOUR GRILL

WHAT IS A LEAK CHECK?

The fuel system in your grill features connections and fittings. A leak check is a reliable way to make sure that no gas is escaping from any of the connections or fittings.

Although all factory-made connections have been thoroughly checked for gas leaks, it’s important to perform a leak check before using your grill for the first time, as well as anytime you disconnect and reconnect a fitting and each time you perform routine maintenance.

PARTIAL DISASSEMBLY OF YOUR GRILL FOR A LEAK CHECK

In order to do the leak check, you need to have access to the gas valves, which will require some simple grill disassembly.

Confirm that Grill Is Off

A) Turn gas supply off at source. B) Check that ALL burner control knobs are in the off

) position (1). Control knobs are shipped in the off

( ( ) position, but you should check to be sure that they are turned off. Check by pushing control knobs in and turning them clockwise. If they do not turn, they are off. If they do turn, continue turning them clockwise until they stop; then they are off. If your grill has a side burner, make sure the side burner control knob is turned off.

Remove Control Panel

You will need: A Phillips screwdriver. A) Disconnect the two wires from the igniter button

located on the underside of the control panel (2).

NOTE: Pull from terminals at ends of wires.

B) Remove control knobs (3). C) Remove the screws from the front of the control panel

with a Phillips screwdriver (4).

D) Carefully lift control panel up and then pull forward

away from frame (5).

GRILLING TIPS & HELPFUL HINTS

TIPS & HINTS

• Always preheat the grill before cooking. Set all burners on high heat and close lid; preheat for 10 to 15 minutes, or until thermometer registers 500°–550°F (260° – 290°C).

• The temperature of your gas grill may run hotter than normal for the first few uses.

• Recipe grilling times are based on outside temperatures of 70°F (21°C) and little or no wind. Allow for more cooking time on cold or windy days, or at higher altitudes. Allow for less cooking time in extremely hot weather.

• Grilling conditions may require adjustment of the burner controls to attain the correct cooking temperatures.

• Sear meats and cook with the lid down for perfectly grilled food every time.

• Crowding food onto a cooking grate means more time will be required to cook the food.

• 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.

• Foods in containers, such as baked beans, will require more time if grilled in a deep casserole than in a shallow baking pan.

• 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.

• 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.

PREHEATING

Preheating the grill before grilling is important. To preheat: Light your grill according to the instructions in the Owner’s Guide; then turn all burners to start/high ( ) position, close the lid, and preheat 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. After preheating, you can adjust the individual burners as desired.

m WARNING: Should the burners go out

while grill is in operation, turn all gas valves off. Open the lid and wait five minutes before attempting to relight grill, using the igniting instructions.

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.

FLAVORIZER® SYSTEM

The closed lid and Flavorizer® bars produce that “outdoor” flavor in the food. 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, the Flavorizer® bars, and the flexible temperature controls, uncontrolled flare-ups are virtually eliminated, because YOU control the flames.

DRIPPINGS AND GREASE

Because of the special design of the Flavorizer® bars and burners, excess fats are directed down the slide-out grease tray and into the catch pan. Disposable drip pans that fit the catch pan are available.

For more grilling tips and recipes, visit www.weber.com.

• 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.

• In general, large pieces of meat will require more cooking time per pound (kilo) than small pieces of meat.

14 WWW.WEBER.COM

• 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.

• Using a timer will help to alert you when “well done” is about to become “overdone.”

SAFETY CHECKS BEFORE USING YOUR GRILL

SAFETY FIRST

It’s a good idea to get in the habit of performing a few safety checks before grilling.

Safety must be considered when you are deciding where to place and operate your grill. Be sure to read the following warnings before installing or using your grill.

WARNINGS:

m Only use this grill outdoors in a well-

ventilated area. Do not use in a garage, building, breezeway or any other enclosed area.

m Your Weber® gas grill shall not be

used beneath overhead combustible construction.

m Your Weber® gas grill is not intended

to be installed in or on recreational vehicles and/or boats.

m Do not use the grill within 24 inches of

combustible materials. This includes the top, bottom, back or sides of the grill.

m Keep the cooking area clear of

flammable vapors and liquids such as gasoline, alcohol, etc., and combustible materials.

m The entire cookbox gets hot when in use.

Do not touch.

m Do not move the Weber® gas grill when

operating or while grill is hot.

When you are getting ready to grill, your first thought should always be safety. Following are a few safety checks that you should perform each time you grill.

SLIDE-OUT GREASE TRAY

Your grill was built with a grease collection system, which funnels grease away from food and into removable containers.

Check the slide-out grease tray for grease build-up each time you use your grill. Remove excess grease with a plastic scraper (1). Wash the grease tray with a soap and water solution and rinse with water.

m CAUTION: Do not line the slide-out

grease tray with aluminum foil.

CATCH PAN AND DISPOSABLE DRIP PAN

Grease from the slide-out grease tray funnels into a catch pan. Cleaning the catch pan is just as important as cleaning the slide-out grease tray.

Check the catch pan for grease build-up each time you use your grill. Remove excess grease with a plastic scraper (2). Wash the catch pan with warm, soapy water and rinse with water. To keep the catch pan cleaner longer, you can line the catch pan with a Weber disposable drip pan or with aluminum foil.

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. A grease fire can cause serious bodily injury or damage to property.

HOSE INSPECTION

The hose should be inspected routinely for any signs of cracking (3).

m WARNING: Check hose before each use

of grill for nicks, cracking, abrasions or cuts. If the hose is found to be damaged in any way, do not use the grill. Replace using only Weber

authorized replacement hose. Contact the Customer Service Representative in your area using the contact information on our web site. Log onto www.weber.com.

MEAL-TO-MEAL MAINTENANCE

Cleaning your gas grill each time you grill out is an essential step that will keep your grill in top performance for years to come. Here we will guide you through the step-by-step instructions for cleaning your grill before each meal to ensure your food comes out perfect each time. For a deeper clean, refer to the annual maintenance section.

CLEANING FOR GREAT MEALS

The Meal-To-Meal Maintenance plan includes the following three simple, yet important steps that should be followed prior to every time you grill.

MAINTAINING THE GREASE MANAGEMENTSYSTEM

The first step in our Meal-To-Meal Maintenance plan is to inspect the grease management system. Your grill was built with a grease management system which consists of an angled slide-out grease tray and catch pan. Grease is channeled down the slide-out grease tray and into the catch pan.

You will need: A plastic scraper. A) Confirm that grill is off and cool. B) Remove the slide-out grease tray by easily pulling the

tray out of the cabinet. Remove excess grease with a plastic scraper (1).

m CAUTION: Do not line the slide-out

grease tray with aluminum foil.

C) Remove the catch pan. Lift the disposable drip pan out

of the catch pan (2). Check for excessive amount of grease. Discard disposable drip pan when necessary and replace with a new one.

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. A grease fire can cause serious bodily injury or damage to property.

PREHEATING THE GRILL

Preheating your grill is the second step. The heat burns off or loosens the bits and pieces of the previous meal.

A) Open the grill lid (3). B) Light your grill according to the ignition instructions

in this guide or on the inside door or side table of your gas grill.

C) Close lid. D) Turn all burners to start/high for 10 to 15 minutes

or until thermometer registers 500° - 550°F (260°-290°C) to preheat the grill (4).

E) Once grill is preheated, continue with cleaning the

cooking grate as described next.

m WARNING: Use heat-resistant barbecue

mitts or gloves when operating grill.

CLEANING THE COOKING GRATE

Finally, the last step is to brush the debris off the hot cooking grate(s).

You will need: A stainless steel bristle grill brush. A) Immediately after preheating, brush the grates with

a stainless steel bristle grill brush (5). This step is not only for cleanliness. It also prevents food from sticking.

m CAUTION: 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.

If you notice that your grill has hot or cold spots, or the flames are not burning blue, you will need to perform a more thorough cleaning of the burner tubes. Refer to “CLEANING FOR SAFETY” section for more details.

WWW.WEBER.COM

CLEANING THE BURNERTUBES

Over time, with repeated use, your grill may show symptoms that it needs a more thorough cleaning. Some of these symptoms are:

• Grill does not reach desired temperature

• Grill heats unevenly

• One or more of burners fail to ignite

• Smell of gas and improper flame pattern

These symptoms arise because the burner tubes need extra care. It is essential to clean the burner tubes to keep your grill performing as safely and efficiently as on day one.

m DANGER

Failure to correct any problems described on this page may result in a fire, which can cause serious bodily injury or death, and cause damage to property.

CLEANING FOR SAFETY

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

The burner tubes in your Weber grill were factory set for the correct air and gas mixture. When the burner tubes are performing correctly, you will see a specific flame pattern. The tips may occasionally flicker yellow (1), with a descending light blue (2) to dark blue flame (3). If the flames do not match the above flame pattern description, it could be a indication that the burner ports and/or spider/insect screens need cleaning.

Below is important information about the maintenance of these two key components of the burner tubes.

CLEAN THE BURNER TUBE PORTS

Over time, from repeated use of the grill, the burner tube ports (4) may become dirty and blocked. Blocked and dirty ports can restrict full gas flow. This obstruction could result in a fire (5) in and around the gas valves, causing serious damage to your grill

Common symptoms of blocked or dirty ports may include:

• Grill does not reach desired temperature

• Grill heats unevenly

• One or more of the burners fail to ignite

• Gas is smelled in conjunction with some or all of the ports not lighting.

Note: The above symptoms can also be a sign that the “excess gas flow control” feature has activated. Refer back to “MAIN BURNER IGNITION” to reset the excess flow safety device.

You will need: A clean stainless steel bristle grill brush. Do not use a brush that has already been used to clean the cooking grates. A) Confirm that grill is off and cool. B) Remove cooking grates and Flavorizer C) Use the brush to clean the outside of the burner tubes

and the Crossover along the tube, as this will only push debris from one hole to another. Note that the burner tubes will move slightly, as if they are loose, this is normal.

D) When cleaning burner tube 1, avoid damaging the

CLEAN THE SPIDER/INSECT SCREENS

The combustion air openings of the burner tubes (1) are fitted with stainless steel screens to help prevent spiders and other insects from spinning webs and building nests inside the venturi (tapered) section (2) of the burner tubes. These nests can obstruct the normal gas flow, and can cause gas to flow back out of the combustion air openings (3). This obstruction could result in a fire (4) in and around the gas valves, causing serious damage to your grill. Additionally, dust and debris can accumulate on the outside of the spider/insect screen and obstruct the oxygen flow to the burner tube.

Symptoms of spider/insect screen obstruction include:

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

You will need: A Phillips screwdriver, soft bristle brush (toothbrush). A) Disconnect the two wires from the igniter button

located on the underside of the control panel (5).

NOTE: Pull from terminals at ends of wires.

B) Remove control knobs (6). C) Remove the screws from the front of the control panel

with a Phillips screwdriver (7).

D) Carefully lift control panel up and then pull forward

away from frame (8).

E) Check the spider/insect screens at the ends of the

burner tubes and clean them using the soft bristle brush (9).

m 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.

F) Reinstall control panel by aligning valve stems with

holes in control panel. Position top edge of control panel on tabs of frame assembly. Push control panel down into position.

G) Fasten control panel with screws. H) Place control knobs onto valve stems. I) Connect the wires to the igniter button.

m WARNING: Make sure that all parts

are assembled and hardware is fully tightened before operating the grill. Your actions, if you fail to follow this product warning, may cause a fire, an explosion, or structural failure resulting in serious personal injury or death as well as damage to property.

PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE

Over time the performance of your grill can diminish if has not been maintained properly. Low temperatures, uneven heat, and food sticking to cooking grates are all possible side effects of poor grill cleaning and maintenance. Cleaning from the top to the bottom of your grill will ensure you get all of the vital areas thoroughly cleaned each and every time.

To obtain replacement disposable drip pans, cooking grates and Flavorizer® bars,contact thelocal retailerin your areaor log onto www.weber.com. If you need furtherassistance, contact your Customer Service Representative.

CLEANING FOR PERFORMANCE

Preventative Maintenance consists of cleaning several areas on the inside of your grill as well as the outside. When your grill is off and cool, start by cleaning the inside from the top down to keep your grill running at peak performance.

m WARNING: Turn your Weber® gas grill

off and wait for it to cool before giving it a thorough cleaning.

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. This deposit 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.

You will need: A stainless steel bristle grill brush, paper towel. A) Brush the carbonized grease from the inside of the

lid with a stainless steel bristle grill brush (1). To minimize further build-up, the inside of the lid can be wiped with a paper towel after cooking while the grill is still warm (not hot).

CLEANING THE COOKING GRATES

If you have been cleaning your cooking grates as recommended in our Meal-To-Meal Maintenance plan, the debris on your grates should be minimal.

You will need: A stainless steel bristle grill brush. A) With grates installed, brush the debris off your

cooking grate with a stainless steel bristle grill brush (2).

m CAUTION: Grill brushes should be

B) Take the grates out. (Do not place them onto the grill

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

CLEANING THE FLAVORIZER®BARS

Angled just right, the Flavorizer® bars catch drippings that smoke and sizzle adding flavor to your food. Any drippings not vaporized by the Flavorizer® bars follow the slope of their angle and are funneled away from the burner tubes. Not only does this help prevent flare-ups inside your grill, but it also protects the burner tubes from getting clogged.

You will need: A plastic scraper, stainless steel bristle grill brush. A) Scrape the Flavorizer

scraper(3).

B) If necessary, brush the Flavorizer

stainless steel bristle grill brush.

C) Remove Flavorizer® bars and set aside. (Do not place

them onto grill side tables as they may scratch the paint or stainless steel.)

CLEANING FOR PERFORMANCE

CLEANING THE BURNER TUBES

Keeping the burner tubes clean is essential for optimum performance. Refer to the previous pages for how to clean the burner tube ports and spider/insect screens.

CLEANING THE COOKBOX

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

You will need: A plastic scraper. A) Use plastic scraper to scrape debris off the sides and

bottom of grill into the opening in bottom of cookbox (1). This opening leads debris into the slide-out grease tray.

CLEANING THE GREASE MANAGEMENTSYSTEM

Your grill was built with a grease management system, which consists of an angled slide-out grease tray and catch pan. Grease is channeled down the slide-out grease tray and into the catch pan.

You will need: A plastic scraper, paper towel. A) Remove the slide-out grease tray by easily pulling the

tray out of the cabinet. Remove excess grease with a plastic scraper (2). If desired, wipe excess with paper towel.

B) Remove the catch pan. Lift the disposable drip pan out

of the catch pan, and discard (3). Replace with a new disposable drip 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. A grease fire can cause serious bodily injury or damage to property.

m CAUTION: Do not line the slide-out

grease tray with aluminum foil.

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.

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. Do not risk scratching your stainless steel with abrasive pastes that do not clean or polish but change the color of the metal by removing the top chromium oxide film coating. Do not use paper towels.

You will need: A microfiber cloth, stainless steel cleaner. A) Spray cleaner onto stainless steel areas of grill. Using

a microfiber cloth clean in the direction of the grain of the stainless steel.

Painted, Porcelain-Enameled Surfaces and PlasticComponents

Clean painted, porcelain-enameled and plastic surfaces on the outside of your grill with warm soapy water.

You will need: Warm soapy water, paper towels or cloth. A) Wipe down the surfaces with warm soapy water. Rinse

and dry thoroughly.

m IMPORTANT: 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), and abrasive cleaning pads.

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.
