You can adjust the LEFT and RIGHT burners as desired. The control settings High (H), Medium (M), Low (L), or Off (O) are described in your Weber cookbook. The cookbook uses these notations to describe the settings of the LEFT and RIGHT burners.

Note: Cooking conditions may require the adjustment of the burner controls.

If burners go out during cooking, turn off all burners and wait 5 minutes before relighting.

mCAUTION: Check the bottom tray for grease build- up before each use. Remove excess grease to avoid a grease fire in the bottom tray.

Using the Cooking Grates

To preheat, after lighting, turn both burners to high (HH). Preheating will take 10 to 15 minutes depending on conditions such as air temperature and wind.

See your Weber cookbook for detailed cooking instructions.

Drippings and grease - The Flavorizer Bars are designed to "smoke" the right amount of drippings for flavorful cooking. Excess drippings and grease accumulate in the catch pan under the bottom tray. Disposable foil liners are available that fit the catch pan.

Using the Cast Iron Griddle

WARNINGS:

mUse heat-resistant barbecue mitts or gloves when handling or cooking on the griddle.

mDo not wear clothing with loose flowing sleeves while using the griddle.

mDo not remove the griddle until it is cold.

mUse caution when cooking foods with high fat content, such as chops, bacon or sausage.

mFollow all safety instructions provided with your barbecue.

mDo not drop cast iron griddle, it will break.

mPrior to storing, grease very lightly with solid vegetable oil or vegetable cooking spray, then wipe dry with a paper towel. Store in a dry place.

First Time Use

Wash thoroughly with a mild dishwashing liquid to remove the wax coating used for protection in shipping. Rinse with hot water and dry completely with a soft cloth or paper towel. NEVER ALLOW TO DRAIN DRY, OR WASH IN A DISHWASHER. You must season the griddle before first use to prevent rust and keep foods from sticking.

Seasoning The Griddle

Spread a thin coating of solid vegetable oil over entire surface of the cast iron griddle with a paper towel. Be certain the entire surface, including all corners, has been coated thoroughly. (Do not use salted fat such as margarine or butter.)

Season the cast iron griddle in your oven. Put griddle on top oven rack. Place aluminum foil on lower oven rack to catch any drippings. Bake in a moderate oven for 112 hours. If you are not planning to use the oven for several hours — you can turn oven off after seasoning and leave griddle in oven to cool to room temperature.

Note: If oven is to be used immediately after seasoning use heat-resistant barbecue mitts or gloves to remove griddle from oven while HOT. Place griddle on a heat- resistant surface and allow it to cool to room temperature.

Important Note: To prevent rusting the cast iron griddle should be reseasoned frequently. If rust occurs, clean with a steel wool scouring pad, rinse with hot water and dry. Coat with a solid vegetable oil or a vegetable cooking spray and heat in grill or oven as indicated above.
