Preserve your stainless steel - Your grill or its cabinet, lid, and control panel may be made from stainless steel.. To keep the stainless steel looking its best is a simple matter.. Clean it with soap and water, rinse with clear water, and wipe dry.. For stubborn particles, a non-metallic brush can be used..

mIMPORTANT: Do not use a wire brush or abrasive cleaners on the stainless steel surfaces of your grill as this will cause scratches.

mIMPORTANT: When cleaning surfaces be sure to rub/wipe in the direction of the grain to preserve the look of your stainless steel. ◆

WEBER® SPIDER/INSECT SCREENS

Your Weber® gas barbecue, as well as any outdoor gas appliance, is a target for spiders and other insects.. They can nest in the venturi section (1) of the burner tubes.. This blocks the normal gas flow, and can cause the gas to flow back out of the combustion air opening.. This could result in a fire in and around the combustion air openings, under the control panel, causing serious damage to your barbecue..

The burner tube combustion air opening is fitted with a stainless steel screen (2) to prevent spiders and other insects access to the burner tubes through the combustion air openings..

We recommend that you inspect the Spider/Insect screens at least once a year. (Refer to “ANNUAL MAINTENANCE”) Also inspect and clean the the Spider/Insect screens if any of the following symptoms should ever occur:

A)The smell of gas in conjunction with the burner flames appearing yellow and lazy..

B)Barbecue does not reach temperature..

C)Barbecue heats unevenly..

D)One or more of the burners do not ignite..

mDANGER

Failure to correct the above mentioned symptoms may result in a fire, which can cause serious bodily injury or death, and cause damage to property. ◆
