cleaners on the stainless steel surfaces of your grill as
this will cause scratches.

section of this manual.
ƽ WARNING: Do not move the Weber
®
gas barbecue
when operating or while barbecue is hot.
You can adjust the Left and Right burners in each burner set as desired. The
control settings are High (H), Medium (M), Low (L), or Off (O).
Note: The temperature inside your cooking box for the fi rst few uses, while
surfaces are still very refl ective, 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.
If burners go out during cooking, open lid, turn off all burners and wait
fi ve minutes before relighting.
Preheating - Your Weber
®
gas barbecue is an energy-effi cient 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 designed to “smoke”
the correct amount of drippings for fl avorful cooking. Excess drippings and
grease will accumulate in the catch pan under the slide out bottom tray.
Disposable foil drip pans are available that fi t the catch pan.
ƽ WARNING: Check the bottom tray for grease build-up
before each use. Remove excess grease to avoid a
grease fi re in the slide out bottom tray.
