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 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.
Liquid Propane (LP) 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.
If there are local codes that apply to portable gas grills,
you will have to conform to them. If there are no local
codes, you must conform to the latest edition of the
National Fuel Gas Code: ANSI Z 223.1.
The pressure regulator supplied with the Weber
Gas Barbecue must be used. This regulator is set
for 10.5 inches of water column (pressure).
This Weber Gas Barbecue is designed for use with
liquid propane (LP) gas only. Do not use with natural
(piped in city) gas. The valves, orifices, hose and
regulator are for LP gas only.
Do not use with charcoal fuel.
Check that the area under the control panel and the
bottom tray are free from debris that might obstruct
the flow of combustion or ventilation air.
The area around the LP tank must be free and clear
from debris.
For Installation in Canada
These instructions, while generally acceptable, do not
necessarily comply with the Canadian Installation codes,
particularly with piping above and below ground. In
Canada the installation of this appliance must comply with

Code for Propane Burning Appliances and Equipment).
Storage

Weber Gas Barbecue is not in use.
When the Weber Gas Barbecue is stored indoors, the
gas supply must be disconnected and the LP tank
stored outdoors in a well-ventilated space.
LP tanks must be stored outdoors in a well-ventilated
area out of the reach of children. Disconnected LP

other enclosed area.
When the LP tank is not disconnected from the Weber
Gas Barbecue, the appliance and LP tank must be
kept outdoors in a well-ventilated space.
