Cooking

• WARNING : Do not move the Weber Gas Barbecue when operating or while barbecue is hot.
• You can adjust the FRONT and BACK burners as desired. The control settings: High (H), Medium (M),
• Low (L), or Off (O) are described in your Weber cookbook. The cookbook uses these notations to describe the settings of the FRONT and BACK burners.
• For example, to sear steaks, you would set all burners at H (high). Then to complete cooking, you would set FRONT and BACK at M (medium). Refer to your Weber cookbook for detailed cooking instructions.
• Note : The temperature inside your cooking box for the first few uses, while surfaces are still very reflective, may be hotter than those shown in your cookbook.
• Cooking conditions. Such as wind and weather, may require the adjustment of the burner controls to obtain the correct cooking temperatures.
• CAUTION : Replace thermometer in lid when not in use. Do not leave thermometer in food while cooking.
• If burners go out during cooking, open lid, turn off all burners and wait five minutes before relighting.
• Preheating – Your Weber Gas Barbecue is an energyefficient appliance. It operates at an economical low BTU rate. To preheat: after lighting, close lid and turn all burners to high (HH). Preheating to between 500° and 550° F (260° and 290° C) will take 10 to 15 minutes depending on conditions such as air temperature and wind.
• Drippings and grease – The Flavorizer® Bars are designed to “smoke” the correct amount of drippings for flavorful cooking. Excess drippings and grease will accumulate in the catch pan under the slide out bottom tray. Disposable foil drip pans are available that fit the catch pan.
• WARNING : Check the bottom tray for grease build-up before each use. Remove excess grease to avoid a grease fire in the slide out bottom try

• Cast Iron Cooking Grates Care Instructions
• WARNING: Follow all safety instructions provided with your barbecue. Do not drop cast iron grates, they will break
• First Time Use – Wash thoroughly with a mild dishwashing liquid to remove the wax coating used for protection in shipping. Rinse with warm water and dry completely with a soft cloth or paper towel. NEVER
• ALLOW TO DRAIN DRY, OR WASH IN A DISHWASHER.
• You must season the grates before first use to prevent rust and keep foods from sticking.
• Seasoning Cast Iron Grates – A SOLID vegetable shortening is recommended for the initial seasoning.
• Spread a thin coating of solid vegetable shortening over entire surface of the cast iron grates with a paper towel. Be certain the entire surface, including all corners, has been coated thoroughly. (Do not use salted fat such as margarine or butter.)
• Turn burners to MOM with lid closed. Preheat grill for 10 minutes. Place cast iron grate back in grill.Allow grill to heat for 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Turn all burners to OFF. Leave cooking grates in barbecue until they are cool. Your cast iron cooking grates are now ready to use.
• Maintenance – Brush debris off with a steel bristled wire brush.
• Reseasoning – After each use the grates may be reseasoned by coating with a solid vegetable shortening, closing the lid and leaving the cast iron grates in grill until it is cool.
• Tips – The cast iron grates will turn black with use. The pores of the iron will be sealed, providing a durable coating that helps to prevent foods from sticking. The grates will further season with use. REGULAR APPLICATIONS OF SOLID VEGETABLE SHORTENING WILL IMPROVE ITS RESISTANCE TO RUST. Rust, a metallic taste or discolored foods are signs of improper or inadequate seasoning or may result from cooking acidic foods. If this occurs, wash thoroughly and reseason.
• Since cast iron holds heat well, you will not need to use extremely high cooking temperatures. Best results are obtained with medium to medium-high heat. Do not overheat.
• As with all cast iron, the more the use, the easier the maintenance.
• Note: Prior to storing, grease very lightly with solid vegetable shortening, then wipe dry with a paper towel. Store in a dry place

Refilling the Liquid Propane Cylinder
We recommend that you refill the LP cylinder before it is completely empty.

2. Unscrew regulator coupling by turning counterclockwise,  by hand only.
3. Loosen cylinder lock wing nut and turn cylinder lock up out of the way.
4. Lift cylinder off.
5. To refill, take LP cylinder to a “Gas Propane” dealer.
   • WARNING : We recommend that your LP cylinder be filled at an authorized LP gas dealer, by a qualified attendant, who fills the cylinder by weight. IMPROPER FILLING IS DANGEROUS.
   • CAUTION : When transporting the LP cylinder make sure the plastic dust cover is in place over the valve. This will keep dust and dirt from the threaded portion of the valve.

Important LP Cylinder Information
Failure to follow these DANGER statements exactly may result in a fire causing death or serious injury.

DANGER

• NEVER store a spare LP Cylinder under or near this barbecue.
• NEVER fill the tank beyond 80% full.
• Your Weber gas grill is equipped with a cylinder supply system designed for vapor withdrawal.
• WARNING : Only use this grill outdoors in a well ventilated area. Do not use in a garage, building, breezeway or any other enclosed area.
• The LP cylinder supplied with your barbecue is equipped with an OPD (Overfilling Prevention
• Device) and a QCC1 or Type 1 (CGA810) cylinder connection. The cylinder connection is compatible with the barbecue connection.
• This is a secondary device to prevent the overfilling of your LP cylinder. The proper filling methods for the filling of your cylinder are by weight or volume, as described in NFPA 58. Please make sure your filling station fills your LP cylinder by weight or volume. Ask your filling station to read purging and filling instructions on the LP cylinder before attempting to fill.
• WARNING : Do not exchange the LP tank provided with your barbecue, unless the exchange LP tank is equipped with an OPD. Otherwise you will lose the OPD (Overfilling Prevention Device) feature. If there is not an LP tank available for exchange equipped with an OPD, we recommend that you have your LP tank filled at an authorized LP gas dealer by a qualified attendant.

Connecting the Liquid Propane Cylinder

• WARNING: Make sure that the LP cylinder valve is closed. Close by turning valve clockwise.
• DANGER
• Do not use an open flame to check for gas leaks. Be sure there are no sparks or open flames in the area while you check for leaks. Sparks or flames will result in a fire or explosion which can cause serious bodily injury or death, and damage to property.

You will need: LP cylinder, a soap and water solution and a rag or brush to apply it.

1. Turn the LP cylinder so the opening of the valve is either to the front, side or rear of the Weber Gas Barbecue. Lift and hook the cylinder onto the fuel guage

2. Loosen the cylinder lock wing nut. Swing the cylinder lock down. Tighten the wing nut.
   To Connect the hose to the cylinder:

3. Remove the plastic dust cover from the valve.

4. Screw the regulator coupling onto the tank valve, clockwise, or to the right. Hand-tighten only.
   Note : This is a new type of connection. It tightens clockwise and will not allow gas to flow unless the connection is tight. The connection requires tightening by hand only.
   WARNING : Do not use a wrench to tighten the connection. Using a wrench could damage the regulator coupling and could cause a leak.

5. Mix soap and water.

6. Turn on the cylinder valve

7. Check for leaks by wetting the fitting with the soap and water solution and watching for bubbles. If bubbles form, or if a bubble grows, there is a leak.

   • If there is a leak, turn off the gas and tighten the fitting.
   • Turn the gas back on and recheck with the soap and water solution.
   • If leak does not stop, Contact the Customer Service
   • Representative in your region using the contact information sheet provided with your manual. Do not use the barbecue.

8. When leak checking is complete, turn gas supply OFF at the source and rinse connections with water.

Liquid Propane Cylinder
The liquid propane cylinder manufacturer is responsible for the materials, workmanship and performance of the tank. If the tank has a defect malfunctions, or you have a question regarding the tank, call the tank manufacturer’s customer service center. The phone number is on the warning decal, which is permanently attached to the tank. If the tank manufacturer has not resolved the issue to your satisfaction, then contact the Customer Service Representative in your region using the contact information sheet provided with your manual.

Safe handling tips for Liquid Propane Gas Cylinders

• Liquid Propane (LP) gas is a petroleum product as are gasoline and natural gas. LP gas is a gas at regular temperatures and pressures. Under moderate pressure, inside a cylinder, LP gas is a liquid. As the pressure is released, the liquid readily vaporizes and becomes gas.
• LP gas has an odor similar to natural gas. You should be aware of this odor.
• LP gas is heavier than air. Leaking LP gas may collect in low areas and prevent dispersion.
• To fill, take the LP cylinder to an RV center, or look up “gas-propane” in the phone book for other sources of LP gas.
• WARNING: We recommend that your LP cylinder be filled at an authorized LP gas dealer, by a qualified attendant, who fills the tank by weight.
• IMPROPER FILLING IS DANGEROUS.
• WARNING: If you exchange your LP cylinder, make sure you get a similar tank in return. Your LP cylinder is equipped with a quick closing coupling or type 1 valve and an OPD (Overfilling Prevention Device). Other LP cylinders may not be compatible with your barbecue connection.
• Air must be removed from a new LP cylinder before the initial filling. Your LP dealer is equipped to do this.
• 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 125° F (too hot to hold by hand – for example: do not leave the LP cylinder in a car on a hot day).
• Note – A refill will last about 20 hours of cooking time at normal use. The fuel scale will indicate the propane supply so you can refill before running out. You do not have to run out before you refill.
• 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
• CAUTION: When transporting the LP cylinder make sure the plastic dust cover is in place over the valve. This will keep dust and dirt from the threaded portion of the valve.
• 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.

Liquid Propane (LP) Cylinder(s)

• 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, bugs etc.

• The LP cylinder and connections supplied with your

• Weber Gas Barbecue have been designed and tested to meet government, American Gas Association, and Underwriters Laboratories requirements

• Liquid Propane Cylinder requirements

• Replacement LP cylinders supplied by Weber satisfy  the above requirements. Check to be sure other cylinders have a D.O.T. certification(1), and date tested(2) is within five years. Your LP gas supplier can do this for you.

• If you have questions about spare LP cylinders contact the Customer Service Representative in your region using the contact information sheet provided with your manual.

• All LP tank supply systems must include a collar toprotect the cylinder valve.

• The LP cylinder must be a 20-lb. size (18 1/4 inches high, 12 1/4 inches in diameter).

• The LP cylinder must be constructed and marked in accordance with the specifications for LP gas cylinders of the U.S. Department of Transportation (D.O.T.)

Annual Maintenance

Inspection and Cleaning of the Weber Spider Stopper™ Guards

• To inspect the Spider Stopper Guards, remove the control panel and look to see if they have dust or dirt on their outside surfaces. If they are dirty, brush off the outside surface of the Spider Stopper Guards with a soft bristle brush (an old toothbrush for example).
• Check that there are no gaps in the Spider Stopper
• Guards’ seams or in the fit around the burners or valves. (See Section “General Maintenance.”)

General Maintenance

• Weber Spider Stopper™ Guards
• Your Weber Gas Barbecue, as well as any outdoor gas appliance, is a target for spiders and other insects.
• They can nest in the venturi section (Venturi(1), air shutter(2), venturi fin(3) ) of the burner tubes. This blocks the normal gas flow, and can cause the gas to flow back out of the air shutter. This could result in a fire in and around the air shutters, under the control panel, causing serious damage to your barbecue.
• The Weber Spider Stopper™ Guard(1) is factory installed. It fits tightly around the air shutter section of the burner tube and the valve, thereby preventing spiders and other insects access to the burner tubes through the air shutter openings

We recommend that you inspect the Weber Spider Stopper Guards at least once a year. (See Section “Annual Maintenance”.) Also inspect and clean the Spider Stopper Guards if any of the following symptoms should ever occur:

1. The smell of gas in conjunction with the burner flames appearing yellow and lazy.
2. Barbecue does not reach temperature.
3. Barbecue heats unevenly.
4. One or more of the burners do not ignite

DANGER
Failure to correct the above mentioned symptoms may result in a fire, which can cause serious bodily injury or death, and cause damage to property
