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, 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 areas around the LP cylinder must be free and clear from debris.
