COOKING CLEANING

WARNING: Do not move the Weber® gas barbecue when operating or while barbecue is hot.

You can adjust the FRONT and BACK burners as desired. The control settings: High (H), Medium (M), Low (L), or Off (O) are described in your Weber® cookbook. The cookbook uses these notations to describe the settings of the FRONT and BACK burners. For example, to sear steaks, you would set all burners at H (high). Then to complete cooking, you would set FRONT and BACK at M (medium). Refer to your Weber® cookbook for detailed cooking instructions.

Note: The temperature inside your cooking box for the first few uses, while surfaces are still very reflective, may be hotter than those shown in your cookbook. Cooking conditions. Such as wind and weather, may require the adjustment of the burner controls to obtain the correct cooking temperatures.

If burners go out during cooking, open lid, turn off all burners and wait five minutes before relighting.

Preheating - Your Weber® gas barbecue is an energy-effi cient appliance. It operates at an economical low BTU rate. To preheat: after lighting, close lid and turn all burners to high (HH). Preheating to between 500° and 550° F (260° and 290° C) will take 10 to 15 minutes depending on conditions such as air temperature and wind.

Drippings and grease - The Flavorizer® bars are designed to “smoke” the correct amount of drippings for fl avorful cooking. Excess drippings and grease will accumulate in the catch pan under the slide out bottom tray. Disposable foil drip pans are available that fi t the catch pan.

WARNING: Check the bottom tray for grease build-up before each use. Remove excess grease to avoid a grease fire in the slide out bottom tray.

WARNING: Turn your Weber® gas barbecue OFF and wait for it to cool before cleaning.
