IMPORTANT NEW FEATURES:
FEATURES:
Your Weber Gas Barbecue is equipped with a new and
improved LP tank connection, that has additional
safety features. They are:
a) Convenient tables and racks.
b) Heavy gauge porcelain-on-steel lid seals in heat.
c) Rapid read thermometer for precision cooking
measures grill temperature, and can be removed and
inserted into the food.
1. The connection of the barbecue to the LP tank can be
made without the use of tools.
2. The new connection will not permit the flow of gas
until a positive gas connection is made.
d) Heavy gauge steel Flavorizer Bars distribute heat
within the grill. Flavorizer Bars heat just the right
amount of drippings for flavoring, letting excess fat
drip past to help prevent flare-ups.
3. If an accidental fire occurs at the LP tank connection,
the flow of gas is stopped by a temperature activated
shutoff.
e) Separate burners for temperature control.
4. If the LP supply hose becomes damaged, cut,
punctured, or accidentally fire damaged, the barbecue
connection is equipped with an excess flow control
that will limit the flow of gas if leakage or a fire occurs.
f) Crossover Ignition System with Gas Catcher Ignition
Chamber.
g) Fuel scale indicates LP gas supply.
h) Catch pan catches excess grease.

General Instructions
Storage
Your Weber Gas Barbecue is a portable outdoor cooking
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 LP tank 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 tank
stored outdoors in a well-ventilated space.
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.
■ LP tanks must be stored outdoors in a well-ventilated
area out of the reach of children. Disconnected LP
tanks must not be stored in a building, garage or any
other enclosed area.
Liquid Propane (LP) gas supply is easy to use and gives
you more cooking control than charcoal fuel.
■ When the LP tank 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
Barbecue. Please read the instructions carefully
before using your Weber Gas Barbecue. Improper
assembly can be dangerous.

ƽWARNING: Only use this barbecue outdoors in a
well ventilated area. Do not use in a garage, building,
breezeway or any other enclosed area.
■ 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.
■ Never use your Weber Gas Barbecue under an
unprotected combustible roof or overhang.
■ The pressure regulator supplied with the Weber
Gas Barbecue must be used. This regulator is set
for 10.5 inches of water column (pressure).
■ Your Weber Gas Barbecue is not intended to be
installed in or on recreational vehicles and/or boats.
■ This Weber Gas Barbecue is designed for use with
liquid propane (LP) gas only. Do not use with natural
(piped in city) gas. The valves, orifices, hose and
regulator are for LP gas only.
■ Do not use combustible materials within 24 inches of
the top, bottom, back or sides of the grill.
■ The entire cooking box gets hot when in use. Do not
leave unattended.
■ Do not use with charcoal fuel.
■ Keep any electrical supply cord and the fuel supply
■ 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.
hose away from any heated surface.
■ Keep the cooking area clear of flammable vapors
and liquids, such as gasoline, alcohol, etc., and
combustible materials.
■ The area around the LP tank must be free and clear
from debris.
■ Never store an extra (spare) LP tank under or near
the Weber Gas Barbecue.
For Installation in Canada
These instructions, while generally acceptable, do not

Step 12
Step 13
Set LP fuel scale
You will need: LP tank (empty).
Fill LP tank
Note - The LP tank manufacturer is responsible for the
materials, workmanship and performance of the tank. If
the tank has a defect, malfunctions, or you have a
question regarding the tank, call the tank manufacturer's
customer service center. The phone number is on the
warning decal which is permanently attached to the tank.
If the tank manufacturer has not resolved the issue to your
satisfaction, then call Weber-Stephen Products Co.,
Customer Service Center.
Note - For accuracy, the fuel scale must be set with an
empty tank.
We utilize various LP tank manufacturers. Some of the
tanks we receive have differing top collar assemblies.
(The top collar is the metal protective ring around the
valve.) One series of tanks mounts with the valve facing
front. The other tanks mount with the valve facing away
from the fuel scale. These types of tanks are illustrated in
Figure 14.
To fill, take the LP tank and filler adapter to an RV center
or look up gas-propane in the phone book for other
sources of LP gas.
Loosen the tank lock wing nut. Tighten so the lock is held
up out of the way. Figure 14 (a). Lift and hook the tank onto
the fuel scale. With an empty LP tank, adjust the fuel scale
setting to E with scale setting (top) wing nut. Figure 14 (b).
ƽWARNING: We recommend that your LP tank be
filled at an authorized LP gas dealer by a qualified
attendant, who fills the tank by weight.
ƽCAUTION: Do not remove adjustment wing nut from
tank scale.
IMPROPER FILLING IS DANGEROUS.
Tell your LP dealer that this is a new LP tank. The air must
be removed from a new LP tank before the initial filling.
Your LP tank dealer is equipped to do this.
After adjusting tank scale, push tank down a couple of
times to check that the tank scale is set on “E”.
ƽWARNING: If you exchange your LP tank, make
sure you get a similar tank in return. Your LP tank is
equipped with a quick-disconnect valve and an OPD
(Overfilling Prevention Device). Other LP tanks are not
compatible with your barbecue connection.
The LP tank must be installed, transported and stored in
an upright position. LP tank should not be dropped or
handled roughly.

ƽWARNING: If there is a leak at connection (a)
retighten the fitting with a wrench and recheck for
leaks with soap and water solution.
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. This will result in a fire or explosion
which can cause serious bodily injury or
death and damage to property.
If a leak persists after retightening the fitting, turn OFF
the gas. DO NOT OPERATE THE BARBECUE. Contact
Weber-Stephen Customer Service.
c) Valves to manifold connections. Figure 19 (c).

ƽWARNING: You should check for gas leaks every
time you disconnect and reconnect a gas fitting.
ƽWARNING: If there is a leak at connections (b), (c) or
(d), turn OFF the gas. DO NOT OPERATE THE
BARBECUE. Contact Weber-Stephen Customer
Service.
Note - All factory made connections have been thoroughly
checked for gas leaks. The burners have been flame
tested. As a safety precaution you should recheck all
fittings for leaks before using your Weber Gas Barbecue.
Shipping and handling may have loosened or damaged a
gas fitting.
When leak checks are complete, turn gas supply OFF
and rinse connections with water.
ƽWARNING: Perform these leak checks even if your
barbecue was dealer or store assembled.
(a)
You will need: a soap and water solution and a rag or
brush to apply it.

(c)
Figure 19
Figure 18
Check for leaks by wetting the connections with the soap
and water solution and watching for bubbles. If bubbles
form or if a bubble grows there is a leak.
Note - Since some leak test solutions, including soap and
water, may be slightly corrosive, all connections should be
rinsed with water after checking for leaks.
(d)
ƽWARNING: Do not ignite burners when leak checking.

Cooking
■ When the LP tank is not disconnected from the Weber
Gas Barbecue, the appliance and LP tank must be
kept outdoors in a well-ventilated space.
ƽWARNING: Do not move the Weber Gas Barbecue
when operating or hot.
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
use (HH) (all burners at high). Then to complete cooking you
would use (MM) (FRONT at medium, and BACK at medium).
See your Weber cookbook for detailed cooking instructions.
■ The Weber Gas Barbecue should be checked for
gas leaks and any obstructions in the burner tubes
before using. (See Sections "General and Annual
Maintenance.")
■ Check that the areas under the control panel and the
bottom tray are free from debris that might obstruct
the flow of combustion or ventilation air.
■ The Spider Stopper Guards should also be checked for
Note: The temperatures 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 may require the adjustment of the burner
controls to attain the correct cooking temperatures.
any obstructions. (See Section "Annual Maintenance.")
Periodic Cleaning
ƽCAUTION: Replace thermometer in lid when not in
use. Do not leave thermometer in food while cooking.
ƽWARNING: Turn your Weber Gas Barbecue OFF and
wait for it to cool before cleaning.
If burners go out during cooking, open lid, turn off all

ƽCAUTION: Do not use oven cleaner, abrasive
cleansers (kitchen cleansers), cleaners that contain
citrus products or abrasive cleaning pads on barbecue
or cart surfaces.
Drippings and grease
The Flavorizer Bars are designed to "smoke" the right
amount of drippings for flavorful cooking. Excess drippings
and grease accumulate in the catch pan under the bottom
tray. Disposable foil liners are available that fit the catch pan.
Bottom tray - Remove excess grease and then wash with
warm soapy water.
Flavorizer Bars and Cooking Grates- Clean with a
suitable brass bristle brush. As needed, remove from grill
and wash with warm soapy water.
ƽWARNING: Check the bottom tray for grease build-
up before each use. Remove excess grease to avoid a
grease fire in the 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.

Liquid Propane (LP) Tank(s)
Safe handling tips for LP Gas
■ The LP tank 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 (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.
■ Replacement LP tanks supplied by Weber satisfy the
requirements. Check to be sure the tank has a D.O.T.
certification, and has been tested within five years.
Your LP gas supplier can do this for you. Figure 7.
■ LP gas has an odor similar to natural gas. You should
know this odor.
If you have questions about spare LP tanks, please
call Weber-Stephen Customer Service.
■ LP gas is heavier than air. Leaking LP gas may collect
in low areas that prevent dispersion.
■ To fill, take the LP tank to an RV center, or look up
gas-propane in the phone book for other sources of
LP gas.
D.O.T. Certification (example)
ƽWARNING: We recommend that your LP tank be
filled at an authorized LP gas dealer, by a qualified
attendant, who fills the tank by weight. IMPROPER
FILLING IS DANGEROUS.

compatible with your barbecue connection.
20 lb LP tank
Date Tested
■ Air must be removed from a new LP tank before the
initial filling. Your LP dealer is equipped to do this.
Figure 7
■ The LP tank must be installed, transported and stored
in an upright position. LP tanks should not be dropped
or handled roughly.
■ All LP tank supply systems must include a collar to
protect the tank valve.
■ The LP tank must be a 20 lb size (18 1/4 inches high,
■ Never store or transport the LP tank where temperatures
can reach 125° F (too hot to hold by hand - for example:
do not leave the LP tank in a car on a hot day).
12 1/4 inches in diameter).
■ The LP tank must be constructed and marked in
accordance with the specifications for LP gas cylinders
of the U.S. Department of Transportation (D.O.T.).
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 tanks 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 tank valve before disconnecting.
■ Do not use a damaged LP tank. Dented or rusty LP
tanks or LP tanks with a damaged valve may be
hazardous and should be replaced with a new one
immediately.
■ The joint where the hose connects to the LP tank must
be leak tested each time the LP tank is reconnected.
For example, test each time the LP tank is refilled.
■ Be sure the regulator is mounted with the small vent
hole pointed downward so it will not collect water. This
vent should be free of dirt, grease, bugs etc.

Main Burner Flame Pattern
General Maintenance
Weber Spider Stopper Guards
The Weber Gas Barbecue burners have been factory set
for the correct air and gas mixture. The correct flame
pattern is shown in Figure 11.
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 of the burner tubes. This
blocks the normal gas flow, and can cause the gas to flow
back out of the air shutter. Figure 9. This could result in a
fire in and around the air shutters, under the control panel,
causing serious damage to your barbecue.

Main Burner Cleaning Procedure
Turn off the gas supply. Remove the manifold.
(See Section “Replacing the main burners”.)
The Weber Spider Stopper Guard is factory installed. It fits
tightly around the air shutter section of the burner tube and
the valve, thereby preventing spiders and other insects
access to the burner tubes through the air shutter openings.
