Your Weber gas grill is a portable outdoor cooking
®
appliance. With the Weber gas grill you can grill,
®
roast and bake with results that are difficult to
duplicate with indoor kitchen appliances. The
closed lid produces that "outdoor" flavor in the food.
The Weber gas grill is portable so you can easily
®
change its location in your yard or on your patio.
Portability means you can take your Weber
with, if you move. Propane 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
grill. Please read the instructions carefully before
using your Weber gas grill. Improper assembly

can be dangerous.
