Lighting
Note - The following are general lighting instructions for
the Weber Gas Barbecue, the illustrations shown may
not be of your model.
Summary lighting instructions are on the control panel.
Crossover Ignition System
Note - The Crossover Ignition System ignites the Front
burner with a spark from the igniter electrode inside the
Gas Catcher Ignition Chamber. You generate the energy
for the spark by pushing the Crossover Ignition Button
until it clicks.
WARNING: Check hose before each use of barbecue
for nicks, cracking, abrasions or cuts. If the hose is
found to be damaged in any way, do not use the
barbecue. Replace using only Weber authorized
replacement manifold assembly. Order from Weber-
Stephen Products Co., Customer Service Center or

Crossover Ignition System
1) Open the lid. Figure 1.
2) Check that the fuel scale reads more than “E”.
Note - E = empty; F = full.
3) Make sure all burner control knobs are turned
OFF. (Push each burner control knob down and turn
clockwise.)
WARNING: The burner control knobs must be in
the OFF position before turning on the LP tank
valve. If they are not in the OFF position, when you
turn on the LP tank valve, the excess flow control
will activate, limiting the flow of gas from the LP
tank. If this should occur, turn OFF the LP tank
valve and burner control knobs and start over.
4) Turn the tank on by turning the tank valve
counterclockwise.
5) Push Front burner control knob down and turn to
START/HI.
WARNING: Do not lean over open barbecue. Keep
your face and body at least one foot away from the
matchlight hole when lighting the barbecue.
6) Push the Crossover Ignition Button several times,
so it clicks each time.
7) Check that the burner is lit by looking through the
matchlight hole on the front of the cooking box.
WARNING: If the burner does not light, turn the
Front burner control knob to OFF and wait 5
minutes to let the gas clear before you try again or
try to light with a match.
8) After the FRONT burner is lit you can turn on the
other burners.
Note - Always light the FRONT burner first. The other
burners ignite from the FRONT burner.
To Extinguish
Turn gas supply OFF at the source, then push down
and turn each burner control knob clockwise to OFF.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
DANGER
Failure to open lid while igniting the
barbecue, or not waiting 5 minutes to
allow the gas to clear if the barbecue
does not light, may result in an explosive
flame-up which can cause serious bodily
injury or death.
DANGER
When the excess flow control is
activated, a small amount of gas is still
flowing to the burners. After turning OFF
the tank and burner control knobs, wait at
least 5 minutes for the gas to clear before
attempting to light the barbecue. Failure
to do so may result in an explosive flame-
up which can cause serious bodily injury
or death.
