Assembly

Parts List

Assembly

These instructions will give you the minimum requirements for assembling your WEBER electric grill.
Improper assembly can be dangerous.

WARNING: Do not modify the appliance. Modifications are unsafe and will void your warranty

Remove all packaging materials and protective film before operating your grill.

• Any parts sealed by the manufacturer must not be opened or altered by the user.
• Do not cover any parts of the grill with aluminum foil. It may negatively impact the performance of your grill.

1. Install Grates
   

2. **Install Grease Tray

**

3. Attach Temperature Controller
   Refer to “Getting Started” for proper attachment of the temperature controller.
   

The grills that are illustrated in this Owner’s Manual may vary slightly from the model purchased.

Operation

Getting Started

1. Plug the temperature controller into the grill by pushing it straight onto the mounting bracket (A) until the controller clicks into place and sits flat to the mounting bracket. Ensure that the heating element pins are aligned with temperature controller for proper attachment (B).

2. Route the power cable behind the grill, away from heated surfaces. Wrap excess cord with the cord wrap.

3. Plug the power cable into a grounded socket.

Preheat the Grill

Preheating the grill is critical to successfully using all of the grill’s features, including barbecuing, steaming, smoking, and keeping food warm. Preheating helps to prevent food from sticking to the cooking grate and gets the cooking grate hot enough to sear properly. It also burns off residue of a previously-cooked meal.

1. Preheat the grill with the control knob in the high position (C). The LED light will turn on indicating the grill is on.

2. When the temperature registers 500°F (260°C) the grill is preheated. This will take approximately 15 to 20 minutes depending on ambient conditions.

3. To grill at a lower temperature: Preheat as outlined above. Turn the knob counter-clockwise to the desired setting. Start barbecuing.

Ambient Conditions

Grilling in a colder climate or at a higher altitude will extend your cooking time. Sustained wind will lower the grill’s internal temperature. Place grill so wind blows against the front of the grill.

WARNING

Use heat-resistant grill mitts or gloves when operating grill.
Should a grease fire occur, close the lid, unplug the grill from the socket and leave the lid closed until the fire is extinguished. Do not use liquid to extinguish flames.
Do not throw open the lid or push open the lid beyond normal operation.
Temperature controller is not a handle. Do not lift the grill from the temperature controller.
Do not set or store items on the temperature controller.

Perform an Initial Burn-Off

Heat the grill on the highest setting, with the lid closed, for at least twenty minutes prior to grilling for the very first time.

Meal-to-Meal Upkeep

Keep it Clean

Accumulated dirt and grease may reduce grill performance. Factors such as altitude, wind and outside temperature can affect cooking times.

Check for Grease Before Every Cook

Your grill was built with a grease management system that funnels grease away from food and into a disposable container. As you cook, grease is channeled down to the slide-out catch pan and into a disposable drip pan that lines the catch pan. This system should be cleaned each and every time you grill in order to prevent fires.

1. Confirm that the grill is off and cool.

2. Remove the slide-out catch pan by pulling it forward (A).

3. Check for grease in the disposable drip pan that lines the slide-out catch pan. Discard disposable drip pan when necessary and replace with a new one.

4. Reinstall all components.

Clean the Cooking Grate After Preheating

After preheating, any bits of food or debris left over from previous use will be easier to remove. Clean cooking grates will also prevent your next meal from sticking.

1. Brush the cooking grates with a stainless steel bristle grill brush (sold separately) immediately after preheating (B)

Cleaning and Storing the Temperature Controller

When cooking is complete and the grill is off, allow the temperature controller to cool before wiping it clean.

1. Unplug and remove temperature controller by pulling it side-to-side slightly until it releases from the mounting bracket (C) .

2. Wipe down temperature controller with a microfiber cloth dampened with water and allow to completely dry. Do not use cleaners or brushes as they will scratch the surface. Never use glass cleaners on plastic. It will damage the surface. Do not immerse in water.

3. Store the temperature controller indoors, out of the reach of children.

WARNING

The grill should be thoroughly cleaned on a regular basis.
Do not line the slide-out catch pan or any part of the grill with aluminum foil.
Use caution when removing catch pan and disposing of hot grease.
Check the slide-out catch pan for grease build-up before each use. Remove excess grease to avoid a grease fire.
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.

CAUTION

****Temperature controller should be removed from grill and stored indoors when grill is not in use – out of the reach of children.

5-in-1 Versatility

High-Heat Searing Setup

Using only the porcelain-enameled cooking grates, turn the control knob to the high setting and preheat the grill with the lid closed to at least 500°F (260°C). Higher preheating temperatures will provide the best searing results. Brush the cooking grates clean with a stainless steel bristle grill brush.

Place food on cooking grates and close the lid. Turn your food only once during the grilling time. Lift the lid only to turn the food or check for the doneness at the end of the recommended grilling time.

Steaming Setup

Powerful and ready to steam in 10 minutes.
With the grill OFF and cool, remove one cooking grate. Place reservoir in the cookbox and fill with water up to the shelf line.
Place the reversible steam pan onto the water reservoir making sure the walls of the steam pan extend upwards to act as a basket for veggies or other small foods.

Close the lid. Turn the control knob to the high setting and preheat the grill for 10-15 minutes. Brush the cooking grates clean with a stainless steel bristle grill brush.

Reduce heat by turning control knob to Steam setting.
Place delicate foods into the steam pan.
Close the lid and cook your food to the desired doneness. For best results, keep the lid closed as much as possible while steaming.
Note: If cooking on the grill side and steam side at once, set the grill to the temperature that is best for your grilled food.
Note: For the best performance, use the steam reservoir on the right-hand side of the grill.
Note: Lid thermometer will not show accurate temperatures with the steam system in place.

Smoke Infusion Setup

With the grill OFF and cool, remove one cooking grate. Place the dry reservoir in the cookbox and fill with a handful of wood chips. Do not add water. Place the reversible steam pan onto the reservoir making sure the walls of the steam pan extend downwards allowing the top surface of the pan to be flat.

Turn the control knob to the high setting and preheat the grill for 5-10 minutes until smoke noticeably begins to form. Brush the cooking grates clean with a stainless steel bristle grill brush.

Reduce heat by turning control knob to Smoke setting.

Food can be placed either on the cooking grate, or directly on the surface of the pan to infuse the food with smoke flavor. Do not cover all of the holes of the pan.

Always grill with the lid closed to allow the smoke to fully penetrate the food.

When you’re finished smoking, turn control knob off and close the grill lid until the wood chips have extinguished.

Note: For the best performance of smoke infusion, use the dry reservoir with wood chips on the left-hand side of the grill. The wood chips may be pre- soaked according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Firespice Smoking Chart

Enhance the flavor of your food with authentic wood fired taste. Experimenting with adding flavored wood chips to the recipe makes smoking and grilling even more delicious. Firespice wood chips sold separately

DANGER

Do not use any flammable fluid or combustible products in the smoker to ignite the wood chips. This will cause serious bodily injury.

WARNING

Never use wood pellets or smoking dust in the smoker.
Never use wood that has been treated or exposed to chemicals.
Always avoid soft, resinous woods like pine, cedar, and aspen.

Food Warming Setup

With the grill OFF and cool, remove one cooking grate. Place reservoir in the cookbox and fill with water up to the shelf line. Place steam pan onto the water reservoir making sure the walls of the steam pan extend downwards allowing the top surface of the pan to be flat.
Turn the control knob to the Low setting.
Place an oven-safe dish, maximum size 9.6″ x 7.0″ x 1.5″ (24 cm x 17.75 cm x 3.8 cm) (sold separately), on the steam pan. The water in the reservoir will keep the food warm and maintain moisture without allowing it to burn.
Monitor the water level in the reservoir every 30-60 minutes and add water if necessary.
To grill while keeping food warm, adjust temperature controller to high while food cooks, then turn the control knob to Food Warming while serving.

Grill from Frozen Setup

With the grill OFF and cool, remove one cooking grate. Place reservoir in the cookbox and fill with 1 cup (250 ml) of water. Place steam pan onto the water reservoir with either side up, and place the frozen food on the steam pan in the COLD grill.

Turn the control knob to the high setting and preheat the grill for 15 minutes. Brush the cooking grates clean with a stainless steel bristle grill brush.

Check if the food has defrosted after 15 minutes, or add more time if necessary.

After the food has defrosted, move the food to the cooking grate to grill to desired doneness.

Cleaning the Steaming/Smoking Reservoir

After each use allow components to cool, then empty the reservoir of water and ash to allow proper air flow. Wash the reservoir and steam pan with warm soapy water. Then, thoroughly rinse

Note: Smoking will leave a “smoke” residue on the surface of the steamer/smoker. This residue cannot be removed and will not affect the function of the steamer/ smoker. To a lesser degree, a “smoke” residue will accumulate on the inside of your grill. This residue need not be removed and will not adversely affect the function of your grill. Do not submerge grill.

Note: Remove steaming/smoking reservoir from the grill if not in use.

Tips and Hints

Grilling Do’s and Don’ts

Preheat grill each and every time.

If the cooking grates are not hot enough, the food will stick and you will likely never have a chance of searing your food properly or developing those handsome sear marks. Even if a recipe calls for medium or low heat, always preheat the grill on highest setting first.

Don’t grill on dirty grates.

Placing food onto the cooking grates before they have been cleaned is never a good idea. Left over residue on the grates acts like glue, binding it to the grates and to your food. To avoid tasting last night’s dinner on today’s lunch, make sure that you are barbecuing on a clean cooking grate. Once the grates are preheated, use a stainless steel bristle grill brush to make a clean, smooth surface.

Be present in the process.

Before starting your grill, make sure that everything you need is within arm’s reach. Don’t forget your essential barbecuing tools, such as oiled and seasoned food, glazes or sauces and clean cooking platters for the cooked food. Having to run back to your kitchen not only means missing out on the fun, but it could also result in burning your food. French chefs call this ‘mise en place’ (meaning, ‘put in place’). We call it ‘being present’.

Create a little elbow room.

Packing too much food onto the cooking grates restricts your flexibility. Leave at least one-quarter of the cooking grates clear with plenty of space between each food item in order to get your tongs in there and easily move the food around. Sometimes barbecuing involves split-second decisions and the need to move food from one area of the grill to another. So give yourself enough room to grill.

Try not to peek.

The lid on your grill is for more than just keeping the rain out. Most importantly, it’s for preventing too much air from getting in and too much heat and smoke from getting out. When the lid is closed, the cooking grates are hotter, the cooking times are faster and the smoky tastes are stronger.

Only flip once.

What’s better than a juicy steak with a deep sear and plenty of beautifullycaramelised bits? The key to accomplishing these results is to keep your food in place. Sometimes we have the tendency to flip our food before it reaches the desired level of color and flavour. In nearly all cases, you should turn food just once. If you are moving it more than that, you are probably also opening the lid too often which causes its own set of problems. So step back and trust the grill.

Product Care

Deep 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. When your grill is off and cool, start by cleaning the inside from the top down.

A thorough cleaning is recommended after every five cooks. Consistent use may require more frequent cleanings.

Cleaning the Lid

From time to time you may notice ‘paint-like’ flakes on the inside of the lid. During use, grease and smoke vapours slowly change into carbon and deposit on the inside of your grill’s lid. These deposits will eventually peel and look 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. Use a plastic scraper to remove carbonised grease from inside the lid (A).

Cleaning the Cooking Grates

If you have been cleaning your cooking grates as recommended, the debris on your grates should be minimal.

1. With grates installed, brush the debris off your cooking grate with a stainless steel bristle grill brush (sold separately) (B).

2. Take the grates out and set aside.
   Note: Cooking grates are dishwasher safe.

Cleaning the Bowl Liner and Cookbox

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

It is recommended to use gloves when removing the heating element.

Do not use metal brushes to clean heating elements.

1. Remove the temperature controller.

2. Remove the heating element by removing the two screws on the mounting bracket until the heating element releases (C).

3. Slide the heating element towards the left side of the grill. Taking care not to bend the heating element, tilt it upwards and remove it.

4. Use a plastic scraper to scrape debris off of the sides and bottom of the bowl liner into the opening in the bottom of the cookbox (D). This opening funnels debris into the slide-out catch pan.

5. Remove and clean the slide-out catch pan. Refer to ‘Meal-to-Meal Upkeep’ (E).

The bottom liner of the grill can be removed and washed with warm soapy water. Take care not to bend the bowl liner.

After cleaning, reinstall the bowl liner. Do not operate the grill without the bowl liner.

To reinstall the heating elements, insert the heating elements into the corresponding holes inside the front of the grill. Reattach by turning screws clockwise. Do not over-tighten.

Clean heating elements by allowing food to burn off.

CLEANING THE OUTSIDE OF THE GRILL

The outside of your grill may include aluminum, stainless steel and plastic surfaces.

WEBER recommends the following methods based on the surface type:

Cleaning Stainless Steel Surfaces

Clean stainless steel using a grease-cutting soap. Use a microfibre cloth to clean in the direction of the grain of the stainless steel. Rinse with clear water and dry thoroughly. Do not use paper towels. Do not use bleach or chlorinated cleaning products on stainless steel.
Note: Do not risk scratching your stainless steel with abrasive pastes. Pastes do not clean or polish. They will change the color of the metal by removing the top chromium oxide film coating.

Cleaning Painted Surfaces and Plastic Components

Clean painted and plastic components with greasecutting soap. Rinse with clear water 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. Additionally, for stainless steel parts only, you may want to apply a stainless steel polish cleaner weekly to prevent surface rust.

WARNING

Turn your grill off and wait for it to cool before thoroughly cleaning it.
Do not spray liquid on heating element or controller.
Do not immerse in water when cleaning.

CAUTION

Disconnect the appliance from the supply circuit and remove the temperature controller before performing cleaning and maintenance.
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 cleaners (kitchen cleaners) or abrasive cleaning pads.
Do not use metal brushes to clean heating elements. Allow food to burn off during preheating.
