GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
GRILLING METHODS
Note: If grill loses heat while cooking refer to the troubleshooting section of this manual.
ƽ WARNING: Do not move the Weber
®
gas barbecue when
operating or while barbecue is hot.
You can adjust the individual main burners as desired. The control settings are START/
HI, MEDIUM, LOW, or OFF.
Note: The temperature 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, 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 five
minutes before relighting.
Preheating - Your Weber
®
gas barbecue is an energy-efficient appliance. It operates at
an economical low BTU rate. To preheat: after lighting, close lid and turn all burners to
“START/HI”. 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 flavorful cooking. Excess drippings and grease will accumulate
in the catch pan under the slide out bottom tray. Disposable foil drip pans are available
that fit the catch pan.
ƽ WARNING: Check the bottom tray for grease build-up before
each use. Remove excess grease to avoid a grease fire in
the slide out bottom tray.
CLEANING
ƽ WARNING: Turn your Weber
®
gas barbecue off and wait for it
to cool before cleaning.
ƽ CAUTION: Do not clean your Flavorizer
®
bars or cooking
grates in a self-cleaning oven.
For availability of replacement cooking grates and Flavorizer
®
bars contact the
Customer Service Representative in your area using the contact information on
our website. Log onto www.weber.com
®
Outside surfaces - Use a warm soapy water solution to clean, then rinse with water.
ƽ CAUTION: Do not use oven cleaner, abrasive cleansers
(kitchen cleansers), cleaners that contain citrus products, or
abrasive cleaning pads on barbecue or cart surfaces.
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.
The natural 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.
