Grilling Methods

troubleshooting section of this manual.
WARNING: Do not move the Weber
when operating or while barbecue is hot.
You can adjust the Left and Right burners in each burner
set as desired. The control settings are High (H), Medium
(M), Low (L), or Off (O).
Note: The temperature inside your cooking box for the fi rst
few uses, while surfaces are still very refl ective, may be
hotter than those shown in your cookbook. Cooking condi-
tions. Such as wind and weather, may require the adjust-
ment of the burner controls to obtain the correct cooking
temperatures.
If burners go out during cooking, open lid, turn off all
burners and wait fi ve minutes before relighting.
Preheating - Your Weber
fi cient 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 condi-
tions such as air temperature and wind.
Drippings and grease - The Flavorizer
to "smoke" the correct amount of drippings for fl avorful
cooking. Excess drippings and grease will accumulate in
the catch pan under the slide out bottom tray. Disposable

up before each use. Remove excess grease to avoid
a grease fi re in the slide out bottom tray.
