Getting Started
Important Information about LP Gas & 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. Do not 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 18¼ inches (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.
LP Tank Installation
Installation Location
The tank is hung onto the tank hook which is located inside the cabinet. The
shape of the collar assembly (the metal protective ring around the tank valve)
determines one of two directions in which the tank will correctly hang on the
tank hook (A).
Inspect the Tank
- Confirm that the tank valve is fully closed. Close by turning valve clockwise.
- Inspect the tank valve, including the internal rubber seal for damage or debris (B). If damaged, return tank to local retailer.
- Confirm that the tank valve is the proper mating type for the regulator
(C).
Install The Tank
Check that all burner control knobs are in the off position. Check by pushing in and turning knobs clockwise. The LP tank will hang on the tank hook mounted on the inside panel. 1) Locate the metal hose retention clip on the regulator
hose. Secure the clip into the slot on the underside of the tank hook bracket (D). 2) Lift tank into position onto the tank hook. 3) Screw the regulator coupling onto the tank valve, turning clockwise. Hand-tighten only. Using a wrench could damage the regulator coupling and could cause a leak. Proceed to “CHECKING FOR GAS LEAKS.”
A
B
Refilling or Replacing an LP Tank
Removal of the LP Tank
- Make sure the grill is off and cool. 2) Confirm that the tank valve is
fully closed. Close by
turning valve clockwise. 3) Unscrew regulator coupling by turning
counterclockwise by hand. 4) Lift tank off tank hook.
A B
C 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
D
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).
m DANGER: Do not line the slide-out grease tray or cookbox with aluminum foil.
m DANGER: Check the slide-out grease tray and catch pan for grease build-up
before each use. Remove excess grease to avoid a grease fire.
m WARNING: Use caution when removing catch pan and disposing of hot grease.
m WARNING: Use heat-resistant barbecue mitts or gloves when operating grill.
m WARNING: 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.
m WARNING: Keep ventilation openings around tank clear and free of debris.
m WARNING: The hose must be secured with the Hose Retention Clip. Failure to
do so could cause damage to the hose resulting in a fire or explosion which
can cause serious bodily injury or death, and damage to property.
m WARNING: Keep any electrical supply cord and the fuel supply hose away from
heated surfaces.

Getting Started
Leak Checking
A What is 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
tank. The fuel system in your grill features factory-made
connections that have been thoroughly checked for gas
leaks and the burners have been flame-tested.
WEBER recommends performing a thorough leak check
after assembly, as well as annually. The following fittings
should be tested:
D
· Where the regulator connects to the tank.
· Where the gas hose connects to the bulkhead.
· Where the bulkhead connects to the corrugated gas line.
Checking for Gas Leaks
- 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
B
the plumbing section of any hardware store.
-
Slowly open gas supply by turning tank valve counterclockwise while checking for bubbles.
-
If bubbles appear there is a leak:
a) If the leak is at the cylinder (B), turn off the gas. DO NOT OPERATE THE GRILL. Disconnect the tank and return the tank to your local retailer.
b) If the leak is at the regulator (C), turn off the gas. NEVER ATTEMPT TO TIGHTEN THE REGULATOR WITH TANK VALVE OPEN. DO NOT OPERATE THE GRILL. Contact the Customer Service Representative in your area using the contact information on our website.
c) If the leak is at any fittings indicated in illustration (D), re-tighten fitting with a wrench and recheck for leaks with soap and water solution. If leak persists, turn off the gas. DO NOT OPERATE THE GRILL.
d) If the leak is at any fittings indicated in illustration
(E), turn off the gas. DO NOT OPERATE THE GRILL.
If a leak is present, contact the Customer Service
C
E
Representative in your area using the contact
information on our website.
- If bubbles do not appear, leak checking is complete:
a) Turn gas supply off at the tank and 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.
Additional Leak Check Precautions
The following fittings should be tested for gas leaks each time a tank is
refilled and reinstalled:
· At the cylinder (B) and at the regulator (C). Follow the instructions for
“Checking for Gas Leaks”.
m DANGER: Do not use a flame to check for gas leaks. Be sure there are no
sparks or open flames in the area while you check for leaks.
m DANGER: Leaking gas may cause a fire or explosion.
m DANGER: Do not operate the grill if there is a gas leak present.
m DANGER: 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.
m DANGER: 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.
m DANGER: 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.
Inspect the Hose
A
Routine inspection of the hose is necessary.
-
Confirm that the grill is off and cool.
-
Check hose for any signs of cracking, abrasions, or cuts (A). If the hose is found to be damaged in any way, do not use the grill.
m WARNING: If the hose is found to be damaged in any way, do not use the grill. Replace using only WEBER authorized replacement hose.

Igniting the Grill
A
Using the Electronic Ignition System to Ignite the
Grill
Each control knob operates an individual burner, and each burner ignites independently. Ignite the burners starting from left to right. All burners should be lit for preheating, however, all burners do not have to be lit while grilling.
-
Open the grill lid (A).
-
Check that all burner control knobs are in the off position. Check by pushing in and turning knobs
clockwise. Note: It is important that all burner control knobs are in the off 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. -
Turn the LP tank on by slowly turning the tank valve
counterclockwise; wait 60 seconds (B).
Note: It is important that the LP tank is turned on slowly.
If it is opened too quickly, the flow limiting device built into
the regulator will activate, limiting the flow of gas from
the LP tank.
B
-
Begin with the burner furthest to the left. Push the burner control knob in and turn it counterclockwise to the start/high position (C).
-
Push and hold the electronic ignition button (D). You will hear it ticking.
-
Check that the burner is lit by looking through the cooking grates and through the half-circle cutout in the FLAVORIZER bar.
-
If the burner does not ignite, turn burner control knob to the off position and wait five minutes to allow the gas to clear before attempting to light the burner again.
-
If the burner ignites, repeat steps 4 through 6 to light the remaining burners.
Should the burners fail to ignite using the electronic ignition, refer to the TROUBLESHOOTING section. There you will find instructions on igniting the grill with a match to help determine the exact problem.
Preheat the Grill
Preheating the grill is critical to successful grilling.
C
Preheating helps to prevent food from sticking to the grate
and gets the grate hot enough to sear properly. It also
burns off residue of a previously cooked meal.
-
Open the grill lid.
-
Ignite your grill according to the ignition instructions in this Owner’s Manual.
-
Close lid.
-
Preheat the grill with all burners on the start/high position for 15 minutes (C).
To Extinguish Burners
- Push each burner control knob in and then turn clockwise all the way to the off position.
- Turn gas supply off at the LP tank.
D
m WARNING: Open lid during ignition.
m WARNING: Do not lean over open grill while igniting or cooking.
m WARNING: Each burner must be ignited individually by pushing the electronic
ignition button.
m WARNING: If ignition does not occur within four seconds of attempting to
light the first burner, turn the burner control knob to the off position. Wait
five minutes to allow accumulated gas to dissipate, and then repeat the
lighting procedure.
Using the sear zone
This feature is only available on select models. Searing is a direct grilling
technique used on meats, such as steak, poultry parts, fish and chops. Searing
browns the surface of the food at a high temperature. By searing both sides of
the meat, you caramelize the food surface, creating a more desirable flavor.
Ignition of the sear burner is the same as ignition of a main burner, each
burner ignites independently. 1) Open the lid and ignite all of the burners,
including
the sear burner. Refer to IGNITING THE GRILL. 2) Preheat the grill with the
lid closed and with all
burners on the start/high position for 15 minutes. 3) After preheating, leave
the sear burner control
knob and the adjacent burner control knobs in the start/high position (E). The
sear burner works in tandem with adjacent burners (F). The remaining burner(s)
can be turned to off or low. 4) Place meat directly over the sear zone and
close lid. Sear each side anywhere from one to four minutes (G), depending on
the type and thickness of meat. Once searing is complete, the meat can be
moved to moderate heat over and cooked to your desired doneness. Note: Always
cook with the lid closed to achieve maximum heat and to avoid flare-ups. As
you gain experience using the sear zone we encourage you to experiment with
different searing times to find the results that work best for your taste.
To Extinguish Burners
- Push each burner control knob in and then turn clockwise all the way to the off position.
- Turn gas supply off.

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 at least twice a year. Consistent use may
require quarterly 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 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.
- 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 grilling while the grill is still
warm (not hot).
Cleaning the Cooking Grates
Cleaned grates will prevent your next meal from sticking. If you are cleaning your cooking grates regularly, the debris on your grates will be minimal. - With grates installed, brush the debris off your cooking grate with a stainless steel bristle grill brush (B).
- Take the grates out and set aside.
Cleaning the FLAVORIZER BARS
FLAVORIZER BARS catch drippings that smoke and sizzle, adding flavor to your food. Any drippings that are not vaporized by the FLAVORIZER BARS are funneled away from the burners. This helps prevent flare-ups inside of your grill, and protects the burners from getting clogged. - Scrape the FLAVORIZER BARS with a plastic scraper (C).
- If necessary, brush the FLAVORIZER BARS with a stainless steel bristle grill brush.
- Remove FLAVORIZER BARS and set aside.
Cleaning the Burners
Two areas on the burners that are key to optimum performance are the ports (small raised openings running along the length of the burners) and the spider/insect screens on the ends of the burner. Keeping these areas clean is essential for safe operation.
Cleaning the Burner Ports - Use a clean stainless steel bristle grill brush to clean the outside of the burners by brushing across the top of the burner ports (D).
- When cleaning the burners, avoid damaging the ignition electrode by
carefully brushing around it.
Cleaning the Spider Screens - Locate the ends of the burners on the underside of the control panel where they meet the valves.
- Clean the spider/insect screens on each of the burners using a soft bristle
brush (E).
Cleaning the Heat Deflectors
Located under the burners, the heat deflectors distribute heat evenly throughout the cookbox while cooking. Keeping heat deflectors clean will enhance the cooking performance of your grill. - Scrape the heat deflectors with a plastic scraper.
- If necessary, brush the heat deflectors with a stainless steel bristle grill brush.
- Remove heat deflectors and set aside.
Cleaning the Cookbox
Look inside the cookbox for any grease accumulation or
A
leftover food particles. Excessive accumulation can cause
a fire.
- Use a plastic scraper to scrape debris off the sides and bottom of the grill into the opening in bottom of the cookbox. This opening leads debris into the slide-out grease tray.
Cleaning the Grease Management System
The grease management system consists of an angled slide-out grease tray and a
catch pan. These components were designed to be easily removed, cleaned, and
replaced; an essential step every time you prepare to grill.
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.
Cleaning Stainless Steel Surfaces B
Clean stainless steel using a non-toxic, non-abrasive stainless steel cleaner
or polish designed for use on outdoor products and grills. Use a microfiber
cloth to clean in the direction of the grain of the stainless steel. Do not
use paper towels.
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, Porcelain-Enameled Surfaces and Plastic Components
Clean painted, porcelain-enameled 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,
C
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.
D
m WARNING: Turn your grill off and wait for it to cool before thoroughly cleaning.
m WARNING: Over time, the development of rough surfaces can form on the FLAVORIZER BARS. Wearing gloves is recommended when handling. Do not clean FLAVORIZER BARS or cooking grates in a sink, dishwasher, or self-cleaning oven.
m WARNING: When cleaning the burners, never use a brush that has already been used to clean the cooking grates. Never put sharp objects into the burner port holes.
m CAUTION: Do not place any grill components onto
the side tables as they may scratch the paint or
E
stainless steel surfaces.
m CAUTION: 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), or abrasive cleaning pads.
Spider Screens
The combustion air openings of the burners (D) 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.

The Flame Direct or Indirect

HIGH
MEDIUM
DIRECT HEAT SETUP
Use the direct method for small, tender pieces of food that take less than 20
minutes to cook, such as: hamburgers, steaks, chops, kabobs, boneless chicken
pieces, fish fillets, shellfish, and sliced vegetables.
With direct heat, the fire is right below the food. It sears the surfaces of
the food, developing flavors, texture, and delicious caramelization while
cooking the food all the way to the center.
INDIRECT HEAT SETUP
Use the indirect method for larger cuts of meat that require 20 minutes or
more of grilling time, or for foods so delicate that direct exposure to the
heat would dry them out or scorch them, such as: roasts, bone-in poultry
pieces, whole fish, delicate fish fillets, whole chickens, turkeys, and ribs.
Indirect heat can also be used for finishing thicker foods or bone-in cuts
that have been seared or browned first over direct heat.
With indirect heat, the heat is on both sides of the grill, or off to one side
of the grill. The food sits over the unlit part on the cooking grate.
Grilling Do’s and Don’ts
Preheat each and every time.
If the cooking grates aren’t hot enough, food will stick, and you will likely
never have a chance of searing properly or developing those handsome grill
marks. Even if a recipe calls for medium or low heat, always preheat the grill
on the highest setting first. Open the lid, turn up the heat, close the lid,
and then let the cooking grate heat up for 15 minutes on high.
Don’t grill on dirty grates.
Tossing food onto the cooking grates before they have been cleaned is never a
good idea. Leftover “stuff” on the grates acts like glue, binding it to the
grates and your new food. To avoid tasting last night’s dinner on today’s
lunch, make sure you are grilling on a clean cooking grate. Once the grates
are preheated, use a stainless steel bristle grill brush to make a clean,
smooth surface.
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 grilling times are faster, the smoky tastes are stronger, and
the flare-ups are fewer. So put a lid on it!
Only flip once.
What’s better than a juicy steak with a deep sear and plenty of beautifully
caramelized 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 desirable level of color and flavor. In nearly all cases, you should turn
food just once. If fiddling with it more than that, you are probably also
opening the lid too much, which causes its own set of problems. So step back
and trust the grill.
Be present in the process.
Before firing up your grill, make sure that everything you need is within
arm’s reach. Don’t forget your essential grilling tools, already oiled and
seasoned food, glazes or sauces, and clean cooking platters for cooked food.
Having to run back to your kitchen not only means missing out on the fun, but
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 grilling involves split-second decisions and the
ability to jockey food from one area to another. So give yourself enough room
to operate.
Know when to tame the flame.
When grilling, sometimes the most important thing to know is when to stop. The
most reliable way to test doneness of your food is to invest in an instant-
read thermometer. This slim little gem will help you pinpoint that critical
moment when your food is at its best.
Don’t be afraid to experiment.
Back in the 1950s, grilling meant one thing: meat (and only meat) charred over
open flames. The modern day backyard chef doesn’t need a kitchen in order to
prepare a full course meal. Use your grill to make char-grilled appetizers,
sides, and even desserts. Register your grill to receive special content that
will inspire you along the way. We’d love to join you on your grilling
adventures.

GAS FLOW
SYMPTOM
· Grill does not reach desired temperature or heats unevenly. · One or more of the burners fail to ignite. · Flame is low when burner is on high position. · Flames do not run the whole length of the burner. · Burner flame pattern is erratic.
CAUSE
SOLUTION
The “flow limiting device” has been activated. This safety feature built into the regulator restricts the gas flow in the event of a gas leak. You can inadvertently activate this safety feature without having a gas leak. This typically occurs when you turn on the gas at the LP tank and one or more of the control knobs are not in the off position. It may also occur if you turn on the LP tank too quickly.
Reset the “flow limiting device” by closing the LP tank valve and turning all the burner control knobs to the off position. Wait five minutes to allow accumulated gas to dissipate, then ignite the grill again following the instructions in the “Operation” section.
The LP tank is low or empty. Fuel hose is bent or kinked. Burner ports are dirty.
Refill LP tank. Straighten fuel hose. Clean burner ports. Refer to “Cleaning the Burner Ports.”
SYMPTOM
· Gas is smelled in conjunction with burner flames that appear yellow and lazy.
CAUSE
SOLUTION
Spider screens on the burners are obstructed.
Clean spider screens. Refer to “Cleaning the Spider Screens” in the Product Care section. Also refer to the illustrations and information in this section about proper flame pattern and spider screens.
SYMPTOM
· The smell of gas and/or a light hissing sound.
CAUSE
The internal rubber seal in the LP tank valve could be damaged.
Connection between regulator and LP tank could be incomplete.
SOLUTION
Extinguish any open flame. Shut off gas to the appliance (grill). Inspect the
rubber seal for damage. If damaged, return tank to place of purchase.

SYMPTOM
· Experiencing flare-ups when grilling or preheating.
CAUSE
There is leftover food from the previous meal.
The inside of the grill needs to be cleaned thoroughly.
SOLUTION
Always preheat the grill on the highest setting for 10 to 15 minutes.
