GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
Your Weber®gas barbecue is a portable 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” flavour in the food.
The Weber®gas barbecue is portable so you can easily change its location in your
garden or on your patio. Portability means you can take your Weber®gas barbecue with
you if you move.
Liquid Propane (LP) gas is quicker 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. We therefore request that you read them carefully before you
use the Weber®gas barbecue.
• Not for use by children.
• Do not connect to natural gas supply (city gas). The valves and orifices are designed
exclusively for LP gas.
• Not to be used with charcoal briquettes or lava rock.
• Use only a 3kg-13kg LP gas cylinder.
• In the United Kingdom, this appliance must be fitted with a regulator complying with
BS 3016, having a nominal output of 37 millibars. (Supplied with barbecue.)
• Avoid kinking the hose.
• The length of hose must not exceed 1.5 metres.
• We recommend that you replace the gas hose on your Weber®gas grill every 5 years.
Some countries may have requirements that the gas hose be replaced within less
than 5 years, in which case that country’s requirement would take precedence.
• Any parts sealed by the manufacturer must not be altered by the user.
• Any modification of the appliance may be dangerous.
• Only a nationally approved low-pressure hose and regulator must be used.
• Replacement pressure regulators and hose assemblies must be those specified by
the outdoor cooking gas appliance manufacturer. ◆
STORAGE

valve.
• When storing the Weber®gas barbecue indoors, disconnect the gas supply line.The
gas cylinder itself is to be stored outdoors in a well-ventilated place.
• If the gas supply cylinder is not removed from the Weber®gas barbecue, the entire
grill and the gas supply cylinder are to be stored in a well-ventilated place outdoors.
• Gas supply cylinders must be stored outdoors in a well-ventilated area out of reach of
children. Disconnected gas supply cylinders must not be stored in a building, garage
or any other enclosed area. ◆

GAS INSTRUCTIONS
SAFE HANDLING TIPS FOR LIQUID PROPANE GAS CYLINDERS
• Liquid Propane (LP) gas is a petroleum product as are petrol and natural gas. LP gas
is a gas at normal temperatures and pressures. Under moderate pressure, inside a
cylinder, LP gas is a liquid. As the pressure is released, the liquid readily vapourises
and becomes gas.
• LP gas has an odour similar to natural gas.You should be aware of this odour.
• LP gas is heavier than air. Leaking LP gas may collect in low areas and prevent
dispersion.
• The LP cylinder must be installed, transported and stored in an upright position. LP
cylinders should not be dropped or handled roughly.
• Never store or transport the LP cylinder where temperatures can reach 51°C (too hot
to hold by hand - for example: do not leave the LP cylinder in a car on a hot day).
• Treat “empty” LP cylinders with the same care as when full. Even when the LP tank
is empty of liquid there still may be gas pressure in the cylinder. Always close the
cylinder valve before disconnecting.
• Do not use a damaged LP cylinder. Dented or rusty LP cylinders or LP cylinders
with a damaged valve may be hazardous and should be replaced with a new one
immediately.
• The joint where the hose connects to the LP cylinder must be leak-tested each time
the LP cylinder is reconnected. For example, test each time the LP cylinder is refilled.
• Be sure the regulator is mounted with the small vent hole pointed downward so that it
will not collect water. This vent should be free of dirt, grease, insects, etc. ◆
REPLACEMENT HOSE, REGULATOR AND VALVE ASSEMBLY
m IMPORTANT NOTICE: We recommend that you replace the
gas hose assembly on your Weber®gas barbecue every
5 years. Some countries may have requirements that the
gas hose be replaced within less than 5 years, in which
case that country’s requirement would take precedence.
For replacement hose, regulator, and valve assemblies,
contact the Customer Service Representative in your area
using the contact information on our web site.

BEFORE USING THE GRILL
SLIDE-OUT GREASE TRAY AND DISPOSABLE DRIP PAN
Your grill was built with a grease collection system. Check the slide-out grease tray and
disposable drip pan for grease build-up each time you use your grill.
Remove excess grease with a plastic spatula; see illustration. When necessary, wash
the grease tray and drip pan with a soap and water solution, then rinse with clean water.
Replace the disposable drip pan as needed.
mWARNING: Always check the slide-out grease tray and
disposable drip pan for grease build-up before using.
Remove excess grease to avoid a grease fire. A grease fire
can cause serious bodily injury or damage to property.
mCAUTION: Do not line the slide-out grease tray with
aluminum foil. ◆
HOSE INSPECTION
The hose should be inspected for any signs of cracking.
mWARNING: Always check hose before using barbecue for
nicks, cracking, abrasions or cuts. If the hose is found to
be damaged in any way, do not use the barbecue. Replace
using only Weber®authorised replacement hose. Contact
the Customer Service Representative in your area using the
contact information on our web site.

SNAP IGNITION OPERATION
mAlways open the lid before igniting the burners.
A) Each control knob has its own igniter electrode built in. To create a spark you must
push the control knob in (1) and turn to START/HI (2).
B) This action will generate gas flow and a spark to the burner lighting tube (3).You
will hear a “snap” from the igniter. You will also see a 3" (7 mm) - 5" (12 mm) orange
flame coming from the burner lighting tube at the left side of the burner (4).
C) Continue to hold the burner control knob in for two seconds after the “snap”.
This will allow gas to flow completely down the burner tube (5) and ensure ignition.
D) Check that the burner is lit by looking through the cooking grates. You should see
a flame. If burner does not light on first try, push control knob in and turn to OFF.
Repeat lighting procedure a second time.
mWARNING: If the burner still does not light, turn the burner
control knob to OFF and wait five minutes to let the gas
clear before you try again or try to light with a match. ◆

GRILLING TIPS & HELPFUL HINTS
• Always preheat the grill before cooking. Set all burners on HI heat and close lid; heat
for 10 minutes, or until thermometer registers 500°-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, or the 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 cuts of meat will require more cooking time per pound than small
cuts 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 ¼ inch
(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 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 “overdone.” ◆
PREHEATING
Your Weber®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°F and
550°F (260° and 288° C), the recommended broiling temperature. This will take 10 to 15
minutes depending on conditions such as air temperature and wind.
You can adjust the individual burners as desired. The control settings are OFF, START/
HI, MEDIUM, or LOW.
NOTE: Cooking conditions, such as wind and weather, may require adjustment of
burner controls to obtain the correct cooking temperatures.
NOTE: If grill loses heat while cooking refer to the troubleshooting section of this
manual.
mWARNING: Do not move the Weber®gas barbecue when
operating or while barbecue is hot.
If burners go out during cooking, turn all burner knobs off and wait five minutes
before relighting. ◆
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 flavour
some 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.
mWARNING: 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. ◆
FLAVORIZER®SYSTEM
When meat juices drip from the food onto the specially angled Flavorizer®bars,
they create smoke that gives foods an irresistible barbecued flavour. 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 ON or OFF control setting 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”). ◆

COOKING METHODS
The most important thing to know about grilling is which cooking method to use for a
specific food, Direct or Indirect. The difference is simple: place the food directly over the
fire, or arrange the fire on either side of it. Using the right method is the shortest route to
great results—and the best way to ensure food is safely cooked through. ◆
DIRECT COOKING
The Direct Method, similar to grilling, means the food is cooked directly over the heat
source. For even cooking, food should be turned once halfway through the grilling time.
Use the Direct method for foods that take less than 25 minutes to cook: steaks, chops,
kebabs, sausages, vegetables, and more.
Direct cooking is also necessary to sear meats. Searing creates that wonderful crisp,
caramelized texture where the food hits the grate. It also adds great colour and flavour
to the entire surface. Steaks, chops, chicken breasts, and larger cuts of meat all benefit
from searing.
To sear meats, place them over Direct High heat for 2 to 5 minutes per side. Smaller
pieces require less searing time. Usually after searing you finish cooking the food at a
lower temperature.You can finish cooking fast-cooking foods by the Direct method; use
the Indirect method for longer-cooking foods.
To set up your gas grill for Direct cooking, preheat the grill with all burners on HI. Place
food on the cooking grate, and then adjust all burners to the temperature noted in the
recipe. Close the lid of the grill and lift it only to turn food or to test for doneness at the
end of the recommended cooking time. ◆
INDIRECT COOKING
The Indirect Method is similar to roasting, but with the added benefits of that grilled
texture, flavour, and appearance you can’t get from an oven. To set up for Indirect
cooking, gas burners are lit on either side of the food but not directly beneath it. Heat
rises, reflects off the lid and inside surfaces of the grill, and circulates to slowly cook
the food evenly on all sides, much like a convection oven, so there’s no need to turn the
food.
Use the Indirect method for foods that require 25 minutes or more of grilling time or that
are so delicate that direct exposure to the flame would dry them out or scorch them.
Examples include roasts, ribs, whole chickens, turkeys, and other large cuts of meat, as
well as delicate fish fillets.
To set up your gas grill for Indirect cooking, preheat the grill with all burners on HI. Then
adjust the burners on each side of the food to the temperature noted in the recipe and
turn off the burner(s) directly below the food. For best results, place roasts, poultry,
or large cuts of meat on a roasting rack set inside a disposable heavy-gauge foil pan.
For longer cooking times, add water to the foil pan to keep drippings from burning. The
drippings can be used to make gravies or sauces. ◆
