General Instructions  
Your Weber® gas barbecue is a portable outdoor cooking  
Storage and/or Nonuse  
appliance. With the Weber® gas barbecue you can grill,  
barbecue, roast and bake with results that are difficult to  
duplicate with indoor kitchen appliances. The closed lid  
and Flavorizer® Bars produce that “outdoor” flavor in the  
food.  
The gas must be turned off at the liquid propane cylinder  
when the Weber® gas barbecue is not in use.  
When the Weber® gas barbecue is stored indoors, the  
gas supply must be DISCONNECTED and the LP  
cylinder stored outdoors in a well-ventilated space.  
LP cylinder must be stored outdoors in a well -ventilated  
area out of reach of children. Disconnected LP cylinder  
must not be stored in a building, garage or any other  
enclosed area.  
The Weber® gas barbecue is portable so you can easily  
change its location in your yard or on your patio. Portability  
means you can take your Weber® gas barbecue with, if you  
move.  
Liquid Propane (LP) gas supply is easy to use and gives  
you more cooking control than charcoal fuel.  
When the LP cylinder is not disconnected from the  
Weber® gas barbecue, the appliance and LP tank must  
be kept outdoors in a well-ventilated space.  
These instructions will give you the minimum  
requirements for assembling your Weber® gas

leaks and any obstructions in the burner tubes before  
using. (See Sections: “General Maintenance and Annual  
Maintenance.)

slide out bottom tray are free from debris that might  
obstruct the flow of combustion or ventilation air.  
The Spider /Insect Screens should also be checked for  
any obstructions. (See Section: “Annual Maintenance.)  
Not for use by children.  
If there are local codes that apply to portable gas grills,  
you will have to conform to them. If there are no local  
codes, you must conform to the latest edition of the

set as desired. The control settings are High (H), Medium  
(M), Low (L), or Off (O).  
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.  
Customer Service Representative in your region using  
the contact information sheet  
provided with your manual.  
Outside surfaces - Use a warm soapy water solution to  
clean, then rinse with water.  
CAUTION: Do not use oven cleaner, abrasive  
cleansers (kitchen cleansers) cleaners that contain  
citrus products, or abrasive cleaning pads on  
barbecue or cart surfaces.  
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 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.  
Slide out Bottom tray - Remove excess grease, then  
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.  
Thermometer - Wipe with warm soapy water; clean with  
plastic scrub ball.  
Inside cooking module - Brush any debris off of burner  
tubes. DO NOT ENLARGE BURNER PORTS  
(OPENINGS). Wash inside of cooking box with warm  
soapy water and a water rinse.  
Inside Lid - While lid is warm, wipe inside with paper towel  
to prevent grease build-up. Flaking built-up grease  
resembles paint flakes.  
Stainless steel surfaces - Wash with a soft cloth and a  
soap and water solution. Be careful to scrub with the grain  
direction of the stainless steel.  
Thermoset surfaces - Wash with a soft cloth and a soap  
and water solution.  
Do not use cleaners that contain acid, mineral spirits  
or xylene. Rinse well after cleaning.  
Thermoset work surfaces are not to be used as cutting  
boards.

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-propanein the phone book for other sources of  
LP gas.  
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.  
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.  
If you have questions about spare LP cylinders

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.

Grilling Tips & Helpful Hints  
Indirect cooking  
• 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.  
The Indirect Method is similar to roasting, but with the  
added benefits of that grilled texture, flavor, and  
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.  
• 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.  
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 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.”

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  
the burner tubes through the air shutter openings.

If the flames do not appear to be uniform throughout the  
burner tube, follow the burner cleaning procedures.  
Main Burner Cleaning Procedure  
Turn off the gas supply. Remove the manifold.  
Look inside each burner with a flashlight.  
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  
opening at the ends of the burners. Check and clean the  
valve orifices at the base of the valves. Use a Steel bristle  
brush to clean outside of burners. This is to make sure all  
the burner ports are fully open.  
ƽ 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.  
Annual Maintenance  
ƽCAUTION: Do not enlarge the burner ports when  
cleaning.  
Inspection and cleaning of the Spider/Insect screens  
To inspect the spider/insect screens, remove the control  
panel. If there is dust or dirt on the screens, remove the  
burners for cleaning the screens.  
Brush the spider/inspect screens, lightly, with a soft bristle  
brush (i.e. an old toothbrush).  
ƽ CAUTION: Do not clean the spider/insect screens  
with hard or sharp tools. Do not dislodge the spider/  
insect screens or enlarge the screen openings.
