IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT LP GAS & GAS CONNECTIONSSAFE HANDLING TIPS FOR LP GAS
CYLINDERS
There are various guidelines and safety factors that you
need to keep in mind when using LP gas. Carefully follow
these instructions before using your Weber® gas grill.
• Do not use a damaged, dented or rust y LP cylinder.
• Handle “empty” LP cylinders with the same care as
you handle full cylinders. Even when an LP cylinder is
empty of liquid, there may still be gas pressure inside
the cylinder.
• LP cylinders should not be dropped or handled
roughly.
• Never store or transport the LP cylinder where
temperatures can reach 125° F (51.7° C) (the cylinder
will become too hot to hold by hand). For example: do
not leave the LP cylinder in a car on a hot day.
• LP cylinders must be kept out of reach of children.
STORAGE AND/OR NONUSE
For grills that have been stored or left unused for a while,
it is important to follow these guidelines:
• Disconnect the cylinder if: 1) it is empty; 2) the grill
is being stored in a garage or other enclosed area;
3) the grill is being transported.
• Place dust cap on cylinder valve outlet when cylinder
is not in use.
• Do not store a disconnected LP cylinder in a building,
garage, or any other enclosed area.
• The Weber® gas grill should be checked for gas leaks
and any obstructions in the burner tube before it is
used. (Refer to “CHECKING FOR GAS LEAKS” and
“ANNUAL MAINTENANCE.”)
• Check that the areas under the cookbox and the
removable catch pan are free from debris that might
obstruct the flow of combustion or ventilation air.
• The spider/insect screen should also be
checked for any obstructions. (Refer to “ANNUAL
MAINTENANCE.”)
US INSTALLATION CODES
Installation must conform with local codes or, in the
absence of local codes, with the latest edition of the
National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54.
CANADIAN INSTALLATION CODES
These instructions, while generally acceptable, do not
necessarily comply with the Canadian installation codes,
particularly with piping above and below ground. In
Canada, the installation of this appliance must comply
with local codes and/or the latest edition of Standard
CAN/CSA-B149.2 (Propane Storage and Handling Code).
NOTE: Your retailer can help you match a replacement
cylinder to your grill.
REGULATOR CONNECTIONS
Your Weber® gas grill is equipped with a pressure
regulator, which is a device to control and maintain
uniform gas pressure as gas is released from the LP
cylinder. Each Weber® pressure regulator is designed for
vapor withdrawal.
• The pressure regulator supplied with the Weber® gas
grill must be used. This regulator is set for 11 inches of
water column pressure.
FUELING YOUR GRILL
Before using your grill for the first time, you need to
purchase an LP cylinder. You may choose to purchase a
spare LP cylinder so that you don’t run out of fuel in the
middle of cooking a meal.
