MANUALLY LIGHTING THE SIDE BURNER

DANGER

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

1)Open the side burner lid.

2)Check that the side burner valve is turned OFF. (Push the knob down and turn clockwise to ensure that it is in the off position.)

IGNITER

If the Ignition system fails to ignite the side burner, light the burner with a match.

Check that both ignition wires(1,2) are attached properly.

You should hear the igniter sparking.

If the ignition system still fails to light, contact the Customer Service Representative in your area using the contact information on our web site. Log onto www.weber.com®.

REPLACE IGNITER BATTERIES

Parts required: 1 AA alkaline battery per igniter.

WARNING: The burner control knob must be in the OFF position before turning on the liquid propane cylinder valve. If it is 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. Then start over.

3)Turn the LP tank valve on (turn counter-clockwise).

4)Put match in a match holder and strike match.

5)Push down and turn the side burner control valve to START/HI.

6)Hold match holder and lit match by right side of side burner.

7)Push igniter button and hold until burner ignites. You will hear the igniter sparking.

CAUTION: Side burner flame may be difficult to see on a bright sunny day.

WARNING: If the side burner does not light:



 





1)Turn OFF the side burner control valve.

2)Wait 5 minutes to let the gas clear before you try again or try to light with a match.

Unscrew igniter button from front of control panel. Remove igniter button and contact spring. Remove old battery and replace with a new AA

alkaline battery. Positive end (1) of battery faces inward as shown in illustration. Replace spring contact (2) and screw igniter button (3) back onto battery compartment.
