C) Turn the gas supply valve on (3).
D) Push down and turn the side burner control valve to “HI” (4).
E) Press the igniter button several times so it clicks each time (5).
m CAUTION: Side burner flame may be difficult to see on a
bright sunny day.
m WARNING: If the side burner does not light in five (5)
seconds:
a) Turn off the side burner control valve, main burners
and gas supply at source.
b) Wait 5 minutes to let the gas clear before you try
again, or try lighting with a match (see “Manually
Lighting the Side Burner”).
LIGHTING THE SIDE BURNER
m DANGER
Failure to open the lid while igniting the side burner, or not
waiting 5 minutes to allow the gas to clear if the side burner
does not light, may result in an explosive flame-up which can
cause serious bodily injury or death.
m 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 hose. Contact the Customer Service
Representative in your area using the contact information on
our web site. Log onto www.weber.com

.
A) Open the side burner lid (1).
B) Check that the side burner valve is turned off (2) (Push control knob in and turn
clockwise to ensure that it is in the “OFF” position), turn all burners not being used
to the “OFF” position (push in and turn clockwise).
m WARNING: The burner control knobs must be in the OFF
position before turning on the liquid propane cylinder valve.
If they are not in the OFF position, when you turn on the
LP cylinder valve, the “excess gas flow control” feature will
activate, limiting the flow of gas from the LP cylinder. If this
should occur, turn OFF the LP tank valve and burner control
knobs. Start over.
m DANGER
When the “excess gas flow control” feature is activated,
a small amount of gas is still flowing to the burners. After
turning OFF the cylinder 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.
GRILLING TIPS & HELPFUL HINTS
• Alwayspreheatthegrillbeforecooking.Setallburnerson“HI”heatandcloselid;
heat for 10 minutes, or until thermometer registers 500˚-550˚F (260˚-288˚C).

• Grillingtimesinrecipesarebasedon70˚F(20˚C)weatherandlittleornowind.
Allow more cooking time on cold or windy days, or at higher altitudes. Allow less
cooking time in extremely hot weather.
• Grillingtimescanvarybecauseoftheweather,ortheamount,sizeandshapeof
the food being grilled.
• ThetemperatureofyourSummit

gas grill may run hotter than normal for the first
few uses.
• Grillingconditionsmayrequiretheadjustmentoftheburnercontrolstoattainthe
correct cooking temperatures.
• Ingeneral,largepiecesofmeatwillrequiremorecookingtimeperpoundthan
small pieces of meat. Foods on a crowded cooking grate will require more cooking
time than just a few foods. Foods grilled in containers, such as baked beans, will
require more time if grilled in a deep casserole rather than a shallow baking pan.
• Trimexcessfatfromsteaks,chopsandroasts,leavingnomorethanascant¼
inch (6.4mm) of fat. Less fat makes cleanup easier, and is a virtual guarantee
against unwanted flare-ups.
• Foodsplacedonthecookinggratedirectlyaboveburnersmayrequireturningor
moving to a less hot area.
• Usetongsratherthanaforkforturningandhandlingmeatstoavoidlosingnatural
juices. Use two spatulas for handling large whole fish.
• Ifanunwantedflare-upshouldoccur,turnallburnersoffandmovefoodto
another area of the cooking grate. Any flames will quickly subside. After flames
subside, relight the grill. NEVER USE WATER TO EXTINGUISH FLAMES ON A
GAS GRILL.
• Somefoods,suchasacasseroleorthinfishfillets,willrequireacontainer
for grilling. Disposable foil pans are very convenient, but any metal pan with
ovenproof handles can also be used.
• Alwaysbesurethebottomtrayandgreasecatchpanarecleanandfreefrom

• Donotlinethefunnel-shapedbottomtraywithfoil.Thiscouldpreventthegrease
