operating Instructions 21

Cooking

•Meats (except poultry and ground meat) should be brought to room temperature before cooking. (20 to 30 minutes should be adequate for most foods. If frozen defrost completely before cooking.)

•Tie meat or poultry with a string, if necessary, to make the shape as uniform as possible before putting it on the spit.

•Remove cooking grates and warming rack to allow food to turn freely.

•Follow lighting instructions for rotisserie burner on next page.

•Set rotisserie burner on medium-high based on outside air temperatures.

•Place food within area of burner.

•If you wish to save drippings for gravy, place a drip pan directly under the food on top of the Flavorizer® bars.

•Food preparation steps are the same for rotisserie cooking as for regular cooking.

•All cooking is done with the lid closed.

•If foods are too heavy or are irregular shapes, they may not rotate well and should be cooked by the Indirect Method without using the rotisserie.

•Smoker can be used in conjunction with rotisserie for more smoke flavor.

Note: When using the rotisserie burner, grill thermometer will not reflect the temperature inside the cooking box.

Lighting the Rotisserie Burner

Rotisserie Burner Snap Ignition

Note: Each control knob snap igniter creates a spark from the igniter electrode to the burner lighting tube. You generate the energy for the spark by pushing in the control knob and turning to “START/HI”. This will ignite each individual burner.

mATTENTION: READ BEFORE LIGHTING ROTISSERIE BURNER

After a period of non-use, before lighting the Rotisserie Burner, a few seconds must pass for the gas supply line to fill.

When using the snap igniter you will see a flash of flames moving from left to right across the Rotisserie Burner surface, the Rotisserie Burner is not lit until the entire ceramic surface is aflame.

At this point, start a count of 20 seconds before releasing the Rotisserie Burner control knob.

The Rotisserie Burner surface will glow red once the burner is fully ignited.

mDANGER

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

mCAUTION: The Rotisserie Burner flame may be difficult to see on a bright sunny day.

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