Important Information about LPGas &
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
• A dented or rusty liquid propane tank may be hazardous and
should be checked by your liquid propane supplier. Donot
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 cylinder valve outlet whenever the
cylinder is not in use. Only install the type of dust cap on
the cylinder valve outlet that is provided with the cylinder
valve. Other types of caps or plugs may result in leakage of
propane.
LP Tank Requirements
• The tank must be approximately 18¼inches (46.35 cm) high
and 12¼ inches (31.1 cm) in diameter with a marked 20
pound (9.07 kg) LP 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 791) 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.

B
12” (305 mm)
mWARNING: Avoid tipping hazard. Position the
LP tank behind grill on the right-hand side.
LP Tank Position
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
• Each WEBER pressure regulator is designed for vapor
withdrawal. Cylinder must be upright when grill is in use.
• 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 791) tank connection device as described in the latest
edition of ANSI Z21.81).

GETTING STARTED
Conducting 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 LP tank.
Weber recommends performing a thorough leak check after
assembly, as well as annually. The following fittings should
be tested:
• Where the LP tank connects to the regulator.
• Where the regulator connects to the gas hose.
• Where the gas hose connects to the burner valve.
Checking for Gas Leaks
If there is a leak from your appliance (smell of gas)
immediately attempt to turn o the tank valve. Remove
the appliance to a well-ventilated location away from any
ignition source. Check for leaks using soapy water. Do not
try to detect leaks using a flame.
1) Wet fittings (A) 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 counter-
clockwise while checking for bubbles.
3) If bubbles appear there is a leak:
a) If the leak is at the LP tank (B), turn o the gas.
Disconnect the regulator, then reconnect and test.
If the leak persists DONOT OPERATE THE GRILL.
Disconnect the LP tank. Contact the Customer
Service Representative in your area using the contact
information on our website.
b) If the leak is at regulator (C), or at the fitting indicated
in illustration (D), DO NOT OPERATE THE GRILL.
Contact the Customer Service Representative in your
area using the contact information on our website.
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 LP tankand 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.
Refilling or Replacing an LP Tank
Removing the LP Tank
Every time your LP tank needs to be refilled or replaced,
follow these instructions to remove it.
1) Confirm that the tank valve is fully closed. Close by
turning valve clockwise.
2) Unscrew gas hose coupling from the tank.
Additional Leak Check Precautions
The following fittings should be tested for gas leaks each
time an LP tank is refilled and reinstalled:
• Where the regulator connects to the LP tank (B) and at the
regulator (C).
Follow the instructions for "Checking for Gas Leaks".

mDANGER: Leaking gas may cause a fire or
explosion.
mDANGER: Do not operate the grill if there is a gas
leak present.
mDANGER: 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.
mDANGER: 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.
mDANGER: 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.

Cleaning and Maintenance
Cleaning the Inside of the Grill
Over time, the performance 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.
A thorough cleaning is recommended when the grill is going
to be stored, or at least twice a year. Consistent use may
require quarterly cleanings. When your grill is o and cool,
start by cleaning the inside, from the top down.
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 barbecuing while the grill is still warm
(nothot).
Cleaning the Cooking Grates
If you have been cleaning your cooking grates before every
cook, as recommended, the debris on your grates should
be minimal.
1) With grates installed, brush the debris o your cooking
grates with a stainless steel bristle grill brush(B).
Cleaning the Burner
Two areas on the burner that are key to optimum
performance are the ports (small openings running along
the length of the burner) 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) Take the cooking grates out and set aside.
2) Use a clean stainless steel bristle grill brush to clean the
outside of the burners by brushing across the top of the
burner ports (C). Do not brush lengthwise.along the tube,
as this will only brush debris from one port to another.
3) When cleaning the burner, avoid damaging the ignition
electrode by carefully brushing around it.
Cleaning the Spider Screens
1) Locate the end of the burner behind the control panel
where it meets the valve.
2) Remove the screw from the top of the rain shield, then
remove the rain shield from the burner tube (on select
models only) (D).
3) Clean the spider/insect screen on the burner using a soft
bristle brush (E).
4) Reinstall the rain shield over the end of the burner tube
and secure with screw.

Proper Burner Flame Pattern
The burner in your grill is factory set for the correct
air and gas mixture. When the burner is 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).
m WARNING: Blocked and dirty ports can restrict full
gas flow, resulting in a fire (D) in and around the gas
valves, causing serious damage to your grill.
Spider Screens
The combustion air openings of the burners(E) 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.

Cleaning the Cookbox
Look inside the cookbox for any grease accumulation or
leftover food particles. Excessive accumulation can cause
a fire.
1) Take the cooking grates out and set aside.
2) Use a plastic scraper to scrape debris o the sides and
bottom of the grill into the opening in bottom of the
cookbox(F). This opening leads debris into the slide-out
catch pan.
3) Some models come with a heat deflector which sits
in the bottom of the bowl. This can be cleaned using a
plastic scraper or can be easily removed and washed
with hot soapy water. After cleaning the heat deflector,
make sure it is properly seated over the opening in the
bottom of the cookbox.
Cleaning the Grease ManagementSystem
The grease management system consists of a slide-out
catch pan and a disposable drip tray (G). These components
were designed to be easily removed, cleaned, and replaced;
an essential step every time you prepare to grill.
Cleaning the Outside of theGrill
The outside of your grill may include stainless steel, painted
aluminium, and plastic surfaces. WEBER recommends the
following methods based on the surfacetype.
Cleaning Painted Aluminium Surfaces and
PlasticComponents
Clean painted aluminium 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.
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(H). If the hose is found to be damaged in any way,
do not use the barbecue.
mWARNING: If the hose is found to be damaged in any
way, do not use the grill. Replace using only WEBER
authorized replacement hose.

Using a Match to Determine if there is Gas Flow to
the Burners
1) Open the grill lid.
2) Check that the burner control knob is in the
o position. Check by pushing in and turning knobs
clockwise.
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.
Note: It is important that the LP tank is turned on slowly.
Ifit is opened too quickly, the flow limiting device built into
the regulator will activate, limiting the flow of gas from the
LP tank.
4) Strike a match and put the flame under the matchlight
hole (A).
5) While holding lit match, push the main burner control
knob in and turn it counterclockwise to the start/high
position.
6) Check that the burner is lit by looking through the
cooking grates.
7) If the burner does not ignite within 5 seconds, turn
burner control knob to the o position and wait five
minutes to allow the gas to clear before attempting to
light the burner again.
8) If the burner ignites, the problem lies in the ignition
system. For piezo igniters, check the wire connections of
the IgnitionSystem (B). For electronic ignition systems,
check the condition of the battery and check the wire
connections of the IgnitionSystem (C). Verify that the
AAA battery (alkaline only) is in good condition and
is installed correctly. Some batteries have a plastic
protective wrap around them. This plastic must be
removed before installing battery. Do not confuse this
plastic with the battery label.
