CONNECTING THE LIQUID PROPANE CYLINDER
Use LP cylinders with a minimum capacity of 5 kg and a maximum capacity of 13 kg.
The regulator illustrations shown in this manual may not be similar to the one you are
using for your barbecue, due to different country or regional regulations.
m WARNING: Make sure that the LP cylinder or regulator valve
is closed.
A) Connect LP cylinder.
Some regulators push ON to connect, and pull OFF to disconnect, others have a
nut that has a left-hand thread that connects to the cylinder valve. Follow one of the
specific regulator connection instructions illustrated based on your regulator type.
a) Screw regulator fitting onto tank turning clockwise (1). Position the regulator so
that the vent hole (2) faces down.
b) Screw regulator fitting onto tank turning anti-clockwise (3) (4).
c) Make sure regulator lever (5) is in the down/off position. Push regulator down on
tank valve until regulator snaps into position (6).
d) Make sure regulator lever is in the off position. Slide the collar of the regulator
up (7) (9). Push the regulator down onto the tank valve and maintain pressure.
Slide collar closed (8) (10). If regulator does not lock, repeat procedure.
m DANGER
Do not store a spare LP cylinder under or near this appliance.

CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS
Check that the burner valves are off. Check by pushing the control knob in and turning
clockwise. Confirm that the knob is set in the OFF indicator position. If the control knob
does turn, continue turning clockwise until it stops. It is now in the OFF position.
mWARNING: You should check for gas leaks every time you
disconnect and reconnect a gas fitting.
mWARNING: Perform these leak checks even if your barbecue
was dealer or store assembled.
mWARNING: Do not ignite burners when leak checking.
m 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 open 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.
A) Mix the soap and water.
B) Turn on the cylinder valve using one of the appropriate options based on your
cylinder and regulator type.
a) Turn cylinder valve anti-clockwise (1) (2) (3).
b) Move regulator lever to the up/on position (4).
c) Move regulator lever to the on position (5) (6).
C) 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.

PREHEATING THE BARBECUE
Light the Weber gas barbecue according to the ignition instructions in this owner’s
manual. Close the lid. Preheat the barbecue for 5-10 minutes (depending on conditions
such as air temperature and wind).
m WARNING: Do not move the Weber
®
gas barbecue when
operating or while the barbecue is hot.
Note: Wind and weather may require adjustment of the burner control knob to obtain
the correct cooking temperature.
If the burner goes out during cooking, open the lid, turn off the burner, and wait five
minutes before relighting.

A light coating of oil will help brown your food evenly and keep it from sticking to the
cooking grate. Always brush or spray oil onto your food, not directly onto the cooking

We suggest that you barbecue with the lid down. Why? Because it reduces the chance
of flare-ups, and cooks your food faster and more evenly.
When using a marinade, sauce or glaze with a high sugar content or other ingredients
that burn easily, only brush it onto the food during the last 10 to 15 minutes of
barbecuing.
Don’t forget to regularly brush off your cooking grate and clean out the drip pan under
the barbecue.
The following cuts, thicknesses, weights, and barbecuing times for food are meant to be
guidelines rather than hard and fast rules. Cooking times are affected by such factors as
wind, outside temperature and how well done the food should be cooked. Barbecue for
the time given on the chart or to the desired degree of doneness, turning once halfway
through the barbecuing time. Cooking times for beef and lamb are for “medium” cooking
time, unless otherwise noted. Let thick chops and steaks rest for 5 to 10 minutes before
carving. The internal temperature of the meat will rise by 5 to 10 degrees during this
time.

TROUBLESHOOTING
PROBLEMCHECKSOLUTION
Burner burns with a yellow or orange flame, in
conjunction with the smell of gas.
Inspect Weber
®
Spider/Insect screen for possible
obstructions (blockage of holes).
Clean Weber
®
Spider/Insect screen. Refer to “ANNUAL
MAINTENANCE.”
Burner does not light, or flame is low in HI position.Is butane/propane cartridge/cylinder fuel low or empty?Replace butane/propane cartridge/cylinder. Refer to
“GAS INSTRUCTIONS.”
Does the burner light with a match?Clean burner. Refer to “MAINTENANCE.”
Burner does not light when you push the igniter
button.
Be sure that there is gas flow to the burners by
attempting to match-light your burners. Refer to
“MANUAL IGNITION”.
If match-lighting is successful, the problem lies in the
ignition system. Refer to “MAINTENANCE.”
Is there is a fresh battery installed?Verify that the battery is in good condition and installed
correctly. Refer to “BEFORE USING THE BARBECUE.”
Are the wires connected properly to the ignition box?Be sure that wires are correctly inserted into terminals on
ignition box. Refer to “MAINTENANCE.”
Is there plastic wrapping around the new battery?Remove plastic wrapping. Do not confuse this with the
battery label.
Is burner tube positioned too far away from the igniter
electrode?
Check that the burner tube is positioned correctly to the
igniter electrode. Refer to “MAINTENANCE.”
Experiencing flare-ups:
mCAUTION: Do not line the cookbox
with aluminium foil.
Are you preheating barbecue in the prescribed manner?All burners on HI for 10 to 15 minutes for preheating.
Is the cooking grate heavily coated with burned-on
grease?
Clean thoroughly. Refer to “CLEANING.”
Is the cookbox dirty and not allowing grease to flow into
catch pan?
Clean cookbox. Refer to “CLEANING.”
Burner flame pattern is erratic. Flame is low when
burner is on HI. Flames do not run the whole length
of the burner tube.
Are burners clean?Clean burner. Refer to “MAINTENANCE.”
Inside of lid appears to be “peeling.” (resembles paint
peeling).
The inside of the lid is Cast Aluminum, and is not painted.
It cannot “peel”. What you are seeing is baked on grease
that has turned to carbon and is flaking off.
THIS IS NOT A DEFECT.
Clean thoroughly. Refer to “CLEANING.”

WEBER

SPIDER/INSECT SCREENS
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 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 in and around the air shutter, causing serious damage to your barbecue.
The burner tube air shutter is fitted with a stainless steel screen (2) to prevent spiders
and other insects from accessing the burner tubes through the air shutter openings.
We recommend that you inspect the Spider/Insect screen at least once a year.
Refer to “ANNUAL MAINTENANCE.” Also inspect and clean the the Spider/Insect
screen if any of the following symptoms should ever occur:
A) The smell of gas in conjunction with the burner flames appearing yellow and lazy.
B) Barbecue does not reach temperature.
C) Barbecue heats unevenly.
D) Burner does not ignite.
