General Instructions
Your Weber® gas barbecue is a portable outdoor cooking
Storage
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 natural gas supply
when the Weber® gas barbecue is not in use.
When the Weber® gas barbecue is stored indoors, the
gas supply must be disconnected.
The Weber® gas barbecue should be checked for gas
leaks and any obstructions in the burner tubes before
using. (See Sections: “General Maintenance and
Annual Maintenance.”)
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 you if
you move.
The natural gas supply is easy to use and gives you more
cooking control than charcoal fuel.
■
■
Check that the areas under the control panel and the
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.”)
•
These instructions will give you the minimum require-
ments for assembling your Weber® gas barbecue.
Please read the instructions carefully before using
your Weber® gas barbecue. Improper assembly can be
dangerous.

well-ventilated area. Do not use in a garage, build-
ing, breezeway or any other enclosed area.
ꢀ WARNING:Your Weber® gas barbecue shall not be
used under an unprotected combustible roof or
overhang.
ꢀ WARNING:Your Weber® gas barbecue is not in-
tended to be installed in or on recreational vehicles
and/or boats.
•
•
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 National Fuel Gas Code: ANSI Z 223.1/NFPA54.
This Weber® gas barbecue is designed for natural
(piped in city) gas only. Do not use liquid propane (LP)
bottled gas. The valves, orifices and hose are for
natural gas only.
•
ꢀ WARNING: Do not use the barbecue within 24
inches of combustible materials, top, bottom, back
or sides of the grill.
ꢀ WARNING:The entire cooking box gets hot when in
use. Do not leave unattended.
•
•
Do not use with charcoal fuel.
Check that the area under the control panel and the
bottom tray are free from debris that might obstruct
the flow of combustion or ventilation air.
ꢀ WARNING: Keep any electrical supply cord and the
fuel supply hose away from any heated surface.
ꢀ WARNING: Keep the cooking area clear of flam-
mable vapors and liquids, such as gasoline, alco-
hol, etc., and combustible materials.
For Installation in Canada
These instructions, while generally acceptable, do not
necessarily comply with the Canadian Installation codes,
particularly with piping above and below ground. In
Canada the installation of this appliance must comply with
local codes and/or Standards CAN/CGA-B149.1 (Installa-
tion Code for Natural Gas Burning Appliances and Equip-
ment).
Gas Supply Testing
•
Disconnect your Weber® gas barbecue when the gas
supply is being tested at high pressures. This appli-
ance and its individual shutoff valve must be discon-
nected from the gas supply piping system during any
pressure testing of that system at test pressures in
excess of 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).
•
Turn OFF your Weber® gas barbecue when the gas
supply is being tested at low pressures. This appliance
must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by
closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any
pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at the
pressure equal to or less than 1/2 psig (3.5 kPa).

General Instructions
Cleaning
Cooking
ꢀ WARNING: Do not move the Weber® gas barbecue
when operating or while barbecue is hot.
ꢀ WARNING:Turn your Weber® gas barbecue OFF and
wait for it to cool before cleaning.
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.
ꢀ CAUTION: Do not clean your Flavorizer® bars or
cooking grates in a self-cleaning oven.
For availability of replacement cooking grates and
Flavorizer® bars contact the
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.
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: Do not use oven cleaner, abrasive cleans-
ers (kitchen cleansers) cleaners that contain citrus
products, or abrasive cleaning pads on barbecue or
cart surfaces.
Slide out Bottom tray - Remove excess grease, then
wash with warm soapy water, then rinse
ꢀ CAUTION: Replace thermometer in lid when not in
use. Do not leave thermometer in food while cook-
ing.
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.
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.
Drippings and grease - The Flavorizer® bars are de-
signed to “smoke” the correct amount of drippings for
flavorful cooking. Excess drippings and grease will accu-
mulate in the catch pan under the slide out bottom tray.
Disposable foil drip pans are available that fit the catch
pan.
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. Do not put in dishwasher or submerge in
water.
Inside cooking module - Brush any debris off of burner
tubes. DO NOT ENLARGE BURNER PORTS (OPEN-
INGS). Wash inside of cooking box with warm soapy water
and a water rinse.
ꢀ 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.
Inside Lid - While lid is warm, wipe inside with paper towel
to prevent grease build-up. Flaking built-up grease re-
sembles 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.

Gas Instructions
Gas Line Piping
■ If the length of the line required does not exceed 50
Install Gas Supply
General Specifications for Piping
feet, use a 5/8" O.D. tube. One size larger should be
used for lengths greater than 50 feet.
■ Gas piping may be copper tubing, type K or L; polyeth-
ylene plastic tube, with a minimum wall thickness of
.062 inch; or standard weight (schedule 40) steel or
wrought iron pipe.
■ Copper tubing must be tin-lined if the gas contains
more than 0.3 grams of hydrogen sulfide per 100 cubic
feet of gas.
Note - Contact your local municipality for building
codes regulating outdoor gas barbecue installations.
In absence of Local Codes, you must confirm to the
latest edition of ANSI Z223.1. WE RECOMMEND THAT
THIS INSTALLATION BE DONE BY A PROFESSIONAL.
Some of the following are general requirements taken from
ANISI Z223.1 latest edition for complete specifications.
■ This barbecue is designed to operate at 7 inches of
water column pressure (.2526 psi).
■ Plastic tubing is suitable only for outdoor, underground
use.
■ Gas piping in contact with earth, or any other material
which may corrode the piping, must be protected
against corrosion in an approved manner.
■ Underground piping must have a minimum of 18" cover
■ A manual shut-off valve must be installed outdoors,
immediately ahead of the quick disconnect.
■ An additional manual shut-off valve indoors should be
installed in the branch fuel line in an accessible location
near the supply line
■ The quick disconnect connects to a 3/8 inch NPT
thread from the gas source. The quick disconnect fitting
is a hand-operated device that automatically shuts OFF
the flow of gas from the source when the barbecue is
disconnected
■ The quick disconnect fitting can be installed horizon-
tally, or pointing downward. Installing the fitting with the
open end pointing upward can result in collecting water
and debris.
■ The dust covers (supplied plastic plugs) help keep the
open ends of the quick disconnect fitting clean while
disconnected.
Test Connections
All connections and joints must be thoroughly tested for
leaks in accordance with local codes and all listed proce-
dures in the latest edition of ANSI Z223.1
ƽ 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 gas
leaks.This will result in a fire or explosion
which can cause serious bodily injury or
death and damage to property.
■ Pipe compound should be used which is resistant to the
action of natural gas when connections are made.
■ The outdoor connector must be firmly attached to rigid,
permanent construction.
ƽ WARNING: Do not route the 12 foot hose under a
deck.The hose must be visible.

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.
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:
Look inside each burner with a flashlight.
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.
ƽ DANGER
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.
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
Inspection and cleaning of the Spider/Insect screens

screens, lightly, with a soft bristle brush (i.e. an old
toothbrush).
ƽCAUTION: Do not enlarge the burner ports when
