SAFETY CHECKS BEFORE USING YOUR GRILL

When you are getting ready to grill, your
first thought should always be safety.
Following are a few safety checks that you
should perform each time you grill.

SLIDE-OUT GREASE TRAY

Your grill was built with a grease collection system,
which funnels grease away from food and into removable
containers.
Check the slide-out grease tray for grease build-up each
time you use your grill. Remove excess grease with a
plastic scraper (1). Wash the grease tray with a soap and
water solution and rinse with water.
m CAUTION: Do not line the slide-out
grease tray with aluminum foil.

CATCH PAN AND DISPOSABLE DRIP PAN

Grease from the slide-out grease tray funnels into a
catch pan. Cleaning the catch pan is just as important as
cleaning the slide-out grease tray.
Check the catch pan for grease build-up each time you
use your grill. Remove excess grease with a plastic
scraper (2). Wash the catch pan with warm, soapy
water and rinse with water. To keep the catch pan
cleaner longer, you can line the catch pan with a Weber
disposable drip pan or with aluminum foil.
m WARNING: Check the slide-out grease
tray and catch 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.

HOSE INSPECTION

The hose should be inspected routinely for any signs of
cracking (3).
m WARNING: Check hose before each use
of grill for nicks, cracking, abrasions
gas grill when or cuts. If the hose is found to be
damaged in any way, do not use the grill.
Replace using only Weber
replacement hose. Contact the Customer
