General Instructions

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 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.

Liquid Propane (LP) gas supply is easy to use and gives

you more cooking control than charcoal fuel.

■

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.

■

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.

■

The pressure regulator supplied with the Weber

Gas Barbecue must be used. This regulator is set

for 10.5 inches of water column (pressure).

■

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 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.

■

The area around the LP tank must be free and clear

from debris.

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 Standard CAN/CGA-B149.2 (Installation

Code for Propane Burning Appliances and Equipment).

Storage

■

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.

■

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.

■

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.

Operating area

WARNING: Only use this barbecue outdoors in a

well ventilated area. Do not use in a garage, building,

breezeway or any other enclosed area.

■

Never use your Weber Gas Barbecue under an

unprotected combustible roof or overhang.

■

Your Weber Gas Barbecue is not intended to be

installed in or on recreational vehicles and/or boats.

■

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.

■

Keep any electrical supply cord and the fuel supply

hose away from any heated surface.

■

Keep the cooking area clear of flammable vapors

and liquids, such as gasoline, alcohol, etc., and

combustible materials.

■

Never store an extra (spare) LP tank under or near

the Weber Gas Barbecue.
