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 diffi cult to
duplicate with indoor kitchen appliances. The closed lid and Flavorizer
®
Bars produce
that “outdoor” fl avor in the food.

®
gas barbecue is portable so you can easily change its location in your yard

charcoal fuel.
