Before Using The Grill; Cooking On Your Electric Grill; Aluminum Foil - Weber Q140 Owner's Manual

CATCH PAN AND DISPOSABLE DRIP PAN
Your grill was built with a grease collection system. Check the catch pan and disposable
drip pan for grease build-up each time you use your grill.
Remove excess grease with a plastic spatula; see illustration. When necessary, wash
the catch pan and drip pan with a soap and water solution, then rinse with clean water.
Replace the disposable drip pan as needed.
m WARNING: Check the catch pan and disposable drip pan for
grease build-up before each use. Remove excess grease to
avoid a grease fire. A grease fire can cause serious bodily
injury or damage to property.
m CAUTION: Do not line the slide-out grease tray with

aluminum foil.

(Q240) - Make sure that disposable drip pan (a) rests flat on catch pan (b). A bent drip
pan may interfere with removal of catch pan.
COOKING
To preheat the grill: Turn on the Weber
instructions in this owners' manual. Close the lid and turn the heating element control
knob to high. Preheat the grill for 15 minutes (Q140) or 20 minutes (Q240); longer
preheating time will depend on conditions such as air temperature and wind. Allow five
more minutes of preheat time in countries where voltage is 220 volts.
Note: Wind and weather may require adjustment of the Temperature Control Knob to
obtain the correct cooking temperature.
Drippings and grease: Excess drippings and grease will collect in the catch pan in the
slide-out bottom tray (located on the underside of the grill). Disposable Weber
are available that fit the catch pan.
m WARNING: Check the catch pan and the bottom of the grill
for grease build-up before each use. Remove excess grease
to avoid a fire in the bottom of the grill.
m WARNING: Do not move the Weber
operating or while the grill is hot.
