Preserve Your Stainless Steel

Your grill or its cabinet, lid, control panel and shelves 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, the use of a non- metallic brush can be used.

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

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

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT LP CYLINDER INFORMATION

Failure to follow these DANGER statements exactly may result in a ﬁ re causing death or serious injury.

DANGER

NEVER store a spare LP Cylinder under or near this barbecue.

NEVER ﬁll the tank beyond 80% full.

Your Weber® gas grill is equipped for a cylinder supply system designed for vapor withdrawal.

WARNING: Only use this grill outdoors in a well-ventilated area. Do not use in a garage, building, breezeway or any other enclosed area.

The proper ﬁ lling methods for the ﬁ lling of your cylinder are by weight or volume, as described in NFPA 58. Please make sure your ﬁ lling station ﬁ lls your LP cylinder by weight or volume. Ask your ﬁ lling station to read purging and ﬁ lling instructions on the LP cylinder before attempting to ﬁll.

LEAK CHECK PREPARATION

CHECK THAT ALL BURNER VALVES ARE OFF

Valves are shipped in the “OFF” position, but you should check to be sure that they are turned off. Check by pushing down and turning clockwise. If they do not turn, they are off. Proceed to the next step. If they do turn continue turning them clockwise until they stop, then they are off. Proceed to the next step.

CONNECTING THE LIQUID PROPANE CYLINDER

All Weber® liquid propane gas grill regulators are equipped with a UL-Listed tank connection as per the latest edition of ANSI Z21.58. This will require a liquid propane tank that is similarly equipped with a Type 1 connection in the tank valve. This Type 1 coupling allows you to make a fast and totally safe hookup between your gas grill and your liquid propane tank. It eliminates the chance of leaks due to a POL ﬁtting that is not properly tightened. Gas will not ﬂ ow from the tank unless the Type 1 coupling is fully engaged into the coupling.

WARNING: Make sure that the LP cylinder valve is closed. Close by turning valve clockwise.

DANGER

Do not use an open ﬂame to check for gas leaks. Be sure there are no sparks or open ﬂames in the area while you check for leaks. Sparks or ﬂames will result in a ﬁre or explosion which can cause serious bodily injury or death, and damage to property.
