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 you if
you move.
The natural 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.

COOKING
ƽ WARNING: Do not move the Weber ® gas barbecue when
operating or while barbecue is hot.
You can adjust the FRONT and BACK 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 FRONT and BACK
burners. For example, to sear steaks, you would set all burners at H (High). Then to
complete cooking, you would set FRONT and BACK at M (Medium). Refer to your
Weber
® cookbook for detailed cooking instructions.
Note: The temperature inside your cooking box for the first few uses, while surfaces
are still very reflective, may be hotter than those shown in your cookbook. Cooking
conditions. Such as wind and weather, may require the adjustment of the burner
controls to obtain the correct cooking temperatures.
Preheating - Your Weber ® gas barbecue is an energy-efficient appliance. It operates at
an economical low BTU rate. To preheat: after lighting, close lid and turn all burners to
high (HH). Preheating to between 500° and 550° F (260° and 290° C) will take 10 to 15
minutes depending on conditions such as air temperature and wind.
Drippings and grease - The Flavorizer
® bars are designed to “smoke” the correct
amount of drippings for flavorful cooking. Excess drippings and grease will accumulate in
the catch pan under the slide out bottom tray. Disposable foil drip pans are available that
fit the catch pan.
