SAFETY FIRST

It's a good idea to get in
the habit of performing a
few safety checks before
barbecuing.
Safety must be considered when you are
deciding where to place and operate your
barbecue. Be sure to read the following
warnings before installing or using your
barbecue.
WARNINGS:
m Only use this barbecue outdoors in a
well-ventilated area. Do not use in a
garage, building, breezeway or any other
enclosed area.
m Your WEBER gas barbecue shall not be
used beneath overhead combustible
construction.
m Your WEBER gas barbecue is not
intended to be installed in or on
recreational vehicles and/or boats.
m Do not use the barbecue within 61 cm
(24 in) of combustible materials. This
includes the top, bottom, back or sides of
the barbecue.
m Keep the cooking area clear of
flammable vapors and liquids such as
gasoline, alcohol, etc., and combustible
materials.
m The entire cookbox gets hot when in use.
Do not touch.
m Do not move the WEBER gas barbecue
when operating or while barbecue is hot.

SAFETY CHECKS BEFORE USING YOUR BARBECUE

REMOVABLE CATCH PAN AND DISPOSABLE
DRIP PAN
Your barbecue was built with a grease collection system,
which funnels grease away from food and into a removable
catch pan. For your convenience, you can also line the
removable catch pan with a WEBER disposable drip pan,
which will help keep the removable catch pan cleaner
longer.
Cleaning the removable catch pan is just as important
as cleaning the cookbox. Check the removable catch pan
for grease build-up each time you use your barbecue.
Remove excess grease with a plastic scraper (1). Wash the
removable catch pan with warm, soapy water and rinse
with water.
m WARNING: Check the removable catch pan
or 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 cookbox,
removable catch pan or disposable drip
pan with aluminium foil.

HOSE INSPECTION

The hose should be inspected routinely for any signs of
cracking (2).
m WARNING: Check hose before each use of
barbecue for nicks, cracking, abrasions or
cuts. If the hose is found to be damaged
in any way, do not use the barbecue.
Replace using only WEBER authorised
replacement hose. Contact the Customer
Service Representative in your area using
the contact information on our web site.
