GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
Your Weber Gas Barbecue is a portable outdoor cooking
appliance. With the Weber Gas Barbecue you can grill,
barbecue, roast and bake with results that are difficult to
duplicate with indoor kitchen appliances. The closed lid
and Flavorizer
® Bars produce that “outdoor” flavor in
the food.
The Weber Gas Barbecue is portable so you can easily
change its location in your yard or on your patio.
Portability means you can take your Weber Gas
Barbecue with, if you move.
Liquid Propane (LP) gas supply is easy to use and gives
you more cooking control than charcoal fuel.
• These instructions will give you the minimum
requirements for assembling your Weber Gas
Barbecue. Please read the instructions carefully before
using your Weber Gas Barbecue. Improper assembly
can be dangerous.
• Not for use by children.
• If there are local codes that apply to portable gas grills,
you will have to conform to them. If there are no local
codes, you must conform to the latest edition of the
National Fuel Gas Code: ANSI Z 223.1.
• The pressure regulator supplied with the Weber Gas
Barbecue must be used. This regulator is set for
10.5 inches of water column (pressure).
• This Weber Gas Barbecue is designed for use with
liquid propane (LP) gas only. Do not use with natural
(piped in city) gas. The valves, orifices, hose and
regulator are for LP gas only.
• Do not use with charcoal fuel.
• Check that the area under the control panel and the
bottom tray are free from debris that might obstruct the
flow of combustion or ventilation air.

clear from debris.
