Preheating - Your Weber® gas barbecue is an energy-
efficient 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.

wash with warm soapy water, then rinse
Flavorizer® bars and Cooking grates - Clean with a
suitable brass bristle brush. As needed, remove from grill
and wash with warm soapy water, then rinse with water.
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 tray.
Catch pan - Disposable foil trays are available, or you can
line the catch pan with aluminum foil. To clean the catch
pan, wash with warm soapy water, then rinse.

■ 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.
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.
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.
ƽ 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.
■ All LP tank supply systems must include a collar to
protect the cylinder valve.
ƽ 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.
(1)
DOT 4BA240
00/02
■ 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.
(2)
■ 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.
ƽ 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.
■ The LP cylinder must be a 20-lb. size (18 1/4 inches
high, 12 1/4 inches in diameter).
■ The cylinder should 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 National Standard of Canada, CAN/CSA-

Grilling Methods
Direct cooking
The Direct Method, similar to broiling, 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, kabobs, 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 color and flavor 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
NOTE: If grill looses heat while cooking refer to the
troubleshooting section of this manual.
You can adjust the Left and Right burners in each burner
set as desired. The control settings are High (H), Medium
(M), Low (L), or Off (O).
If burners go out during cooking, turn off all burners
and wait 5 minutes before relighting.
ƽWARNING: Check the bottom tray and catch pan for
grease build-up before each use. Remove excess
grease to avoid a grease fire in the bottom tray.
Preheating the grill before grilling is important. Light your
Summit® gas grill according to the instructions in this
Owner’s Manual. Turn both burners in each burner set
to High (HH), close the lid, and preheat grill with the lid
down until grill thermometer reaches 550ºF. This is the
recommended broiling temperature.
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 High. 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.
Preheating
Preheating the grill before grilling is very important. Light
your Summit® gas grill according to the instructions in your
Owner’s Manual. Close the lid and wait until the
thermometer in your lid reaches 500˚-550˚F (260˚-288˚C).
This will take approximately 10 to 15 minutes, depending
on outside temperatures.
Covered cooking
All grilling is done with the lid down to provide uniform,
evenly circulated heat. With the lid closed, the Summit®
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.
Flavorizer® system
When meat juices drip from the food onto the specially
angled Flavorizer® bars, they create smoke that gives
foods an irresistible barbecued flavor. 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 funnel-shaped bottom
tray into the grease catch pan.
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 doneness safety.

Indirect cooking
Grilling Tips & Helpful Hints
The Indirect Method is similar to roasting, but with the
added benefits of that grilled texture, flavor, and
• Always preheat the grill before cooking. Set all burners
on HIGH 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.
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 High. 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.
• 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 in charts and recipes are approximate.
Times can vary because of the weather, or the amount,
size and shape of the food being grilled.
• The temperature of your Summit® 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 pieces of meat will require more
cooking time per pound than small pieces 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 1⁄4 inch 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 to
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 bottom tray and grease catch pan
are clean and free from debris.
• Do not line the funnel-shaped bottom tray with foil. This
could prevent the grease from flowing into the grease
catch pan.
• Using a timer will help to alert you when “well-done” is
about to become “over-done.”

Using the Smoker
The smoker uses presoaked wood chips. For best results
with faster cooking foods like steaks, burgers and chops,
etc., we recommend using finer wood chips because they
ignite and create smoke faster. For longer cooking foods
such as roasts, chicken and turkeys, etc., we recommend
using larger wood chunks because they ignite slowly and
provide smoke for a longer period of time. As you gain
experience in using your smoker, we encourage you to
experiment with different combinations of wood chips and
chunks to find the smoke flavor that best suits your taste.
To use the smoker
As a starting point, soak wood chips in water for at least
30 minutes before using. (Wet wood will produce more
smoke flavor.) Place a handful of wood chips or a few
larger chunks in the bottom of the smoker body(1). As you
gain experience in smoking, increase or decrease the
amount of wood to suit your taste.
ƽ DANGER
Do not use any flammable fluid in the smoker to
ignite the wood.This will cause serious bodily
injury.
Cleaning the smoker
Before each use, empty the smoker of ash to allow proper
air flow.
Note - Smoking will leave a “smoke” residue on the surface
of the smoker. This residue cannot be removed and will not
affect the function of the smoker. To a lesser degree a
“smoke” residue will accumulate on the inside of your gas
grill. This residue need not be removed and will not
adversely affect the function of your gas grill.
Note - Always grill with the lid closed to allow the smoke to
fully penetrate the food.

ƽWARNING: Setup up the rotisserie with food before
lighting rotisserie burner.
Using the Rotisserie
Note - Before using your rotisserie, measure your food at
the widest point. If it exceeds 9 1/2”, it is too large to fit the
rotisserie. If it is too large, food can be prepared using a
roast holder and the Indirect Cooking Method.
Operating

fork.
2) Push the rotisserie shaft through the center of the
food.
Important safeguards
3) Slide the spit fork onto the shaft. Insert the tines of
both spit forks into the food. The food should be
centered on the shaft. Tighten the spit fork screws
4) Place the motor in the bracket, slide to lock.
5) Insert the pointed end of the rotisserie shaft into the
motor. Place the handle end of the rotisserie onto the
support rollers.
6) The rotisserie shaft should rotate so that the heavy
side of the meat or poultry rotates down to the bottom.

Maintenance
Weber® Spider /Insect screens
Lightly tap the burner to get debris and dirt out of the
burner tube. Once the spider/insect screens and burners
are clean replace the burners.
If the spider/insect screen becomes damaged or cannot be
cleaned, call Weber-Stephen Products Customer Service
for replacement parts.
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(1) 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.
Main Burner Flame Pattern
(1)
The Weber® gas barbecue burners have been factory set
for the correct air and gas mixture. The correct flame
pattern is shown.
1) Burner tube
2) Tips occasionally flicker yellow
3) Light blue
4) Dark blue
The burner tube air shutter is fitted with a stainless steel
screen(1) to prevent spiders and other insects access to
(1)
the burner tubes through the air shutter openings.

Main Burner Cleaning Procedure
Turn off the gas supply. Remove the manifold.

We recommend that you inspect the Spider/Insect
screens at least once a year. (See Section “Annual
Maintenance”.) Also inspect and clean the the Spider/
Insect screens 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.
Clean the inside of the burners with a wire (a straightened-
out coat hanger will work). Check and clean the air shutter
