IGNITION & USAGE

MANUAL IGNITION

mDANGER

Failure to open the lid while igniting the barbecue’s burners, or not waiting 5 minutes to allow the gas to clear if the barbecue does not light, may result in an explosive flare-up which can cause serious bodily injury or death.

mWARNING: Check hose before each use of barbecue for nicks, cracking, abrasions or cuts. If the hose is found to be damaged in any way, do not use the barbecue. Replace using only Weber® authorized replacement hose. Contact the Customer Service Representative in your area using the contact information on our web site.

Note - The ignition system ignites the burners with a spark from the igniter electrode inside the ignition chamber.You generate the energy for the spark by pushing the ignition button until it clicks.

A)Open the lid (1).

B)Make sure all burner control knobs are turned OFF (2). (Push each knob in and turn clockwise to ensure they are in the off position.)

mWARNING: The burner control knobs must be in the OFF position before turning on the liquid propane cylinder valve. If they are not in the OFF position, when you turn on the LP cylinder valve, the “excess gas flow control” feature will activate, limiting the flow of gas from the LP cylinder. If this should occur, turn OFF the LP tank valve and burner control knobs. Start over.

mDANGER

When the “excess gas flow control” feature is activated, a small amount of gas is still flowing to the burners. After turning OFF the cylinder and burner control knobs, wait at least 5 minutes for the gas to clear before attempting to light the barbecue. Failure to do so may result in an explosive flame-up, which can cause serious bodily injury or death.

C)Turn the gas on by turning the cylinder valve counterclockwise (3).

D)Strike a match and put the flame into the matchlight hole under the igniter (4).

mWARNING: Do not lean over the open barbecue when igniting the barbecue.

E)Select outside burner, push control knob in and turn to START/HI (5).

F)Check that the burner is lit by looking down through the cooking grate. You should see a flame (6).

mWARNING: If the burner does not light, turn the burner control knob to OFF and wait 5 minutes to let the gas clear before you try again.
