CONNECTING THE LIQUID PROPANE CYLINDER
ƽ WARNING: Make sure that the LP cylinder valve is
closed. Close by turning valve clockwise.
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 leaks. Sparks or flames will result
in a fire or explosion which can cause serious bodily
injury or death, and damage to property.
Some LP tanks have differing top collar assembles. (The top collar is the
metal protective ring around the valve.) One series of tanks mount with the
valve facing front. The other tanks mount with the valve facing away from
the fuel scale. These types of tanks are illustrated below.
You will need: LP cylinder, a soap and water solution and a rag or brush to
apply it.
1) Make sure hose and regulator are in retaining clip.
ƽ DANGER
Failure to use retaining clip could result in gas leaks,
fire or explosion which can cause serious bodily injury
or death, and damage to property.
2) Turn the LP cylinder so the opening of the valve is either to the front,
side or rear of the Weber® gas fireplace. Lift and hook the cylinder onto
the fuel gauge.
3) Loosen the cylinder lock wing nut. Swing the cylinder lock down.
Tighten the wing nut.
To Connect the hose to the cylinder:
4) Remove the plastic dust cover from the valve.
5) 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.
ƽ WARNING: Do not use a wrench to tighten the
connection. Using a wrench could damage the
regulator coupling and could cause a leak.
6) Mix soap and water.
7) Turn on the cylinder valve.
8) 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
Do not use the fireplace.

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.
•
•
•
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.
•
•
•
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 cylin-
der in a car on a hot day).
Note - A refill will last about 6-7 hours of burning 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 cylin-
der. Always close the cylinder valve before disconnecting.
(1)
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.
DOT 4BA240
00/05
•
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)
•
•
•
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.
(2)
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 gas connections supplied with your Weber® gas fireplace have been
designed and tested to meet 100% CSA and ANSI requirements.
ƽ WARNING: Replacement LP tanks must match the
regulator connection supplied with this fireplace.
Liquid Propane Cylinder requirements
•
•
•
•
Check to be sure 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.
All LP tank supply systems must include a collar to protect the cylinder
valve.
The LP cylinder must be a 20-lb. size approximately (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 Trans-
portation (D.O.T.) or the National Standard of Canada, CAN/CSA-B339,

WEBER® SPIDER / INSECT SCREEN
Your Weber® gas fireplace, 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 tube. 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, causing serious damage
to your fireplace.
The burner tube air shutter is fitted with a stainless steel screen (1) to
prevent spiders and other insects access to the burner tube through the air
shutter openings.
We recommend that you inspect the Spider/Insect screen at least once
a year. (See Section “Annual Maintenance”.) Also inspect and clean
the Spider/Insect screen if any of the following symptoms should ever
occur:
1) The smell of gas in conjunction with the burner flame appearing yellow
and lazy.
2) Burner does not ignite.
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.

MAIN BURNER FLAME PATTERN
The Weber® gas fireplace burner has been factory set for the correct air and
gas mixture. A correct flame pattern is:
• A yellow to light-orange flame
An incorrect flame pattern is:
• A dark orange flame
• Smoke-producing flame
If the flames appear to be darker orange throughout the burner, sooting
occurs, or smoke is produced; follow the burner and spider screen cleaning
procedures.
IGNITION SYSTEM
If the Ignition System fails to ignite the burner, light manually. If Manual igni-
tion is successful, then check the Ignition System.
(3)
•
Check that both the white (2) and black (3) ignition wires are attached
properly.
•
•
Check that the igniter button pushes in completely and returns.
Check to see if the igniter is loose in the frame. Tighten if necessary.
If the Ignition System still fails to ignite the burner, see Manual Lighting pro-
cedure and contact your dealer.
