Manual Lighting; To Extinguish - Weber Platinum I 3400 LP Operating Manual

MANUAL LIGHTING THE MAIN BURNERS
Failure to open lid while igniting the
barbecue, or not waiting 5 minutes to allow
the gas to clear if the barbecue does not light,
may result in an explosive flame-up which
can cause serious bodily injury or death.
1) Open the lid. Figure 2.
2) Check that fuel scale reads more than "E".
Note - E = empty; F = full.
3) Make sure all burner control knobs are OFF. (Push each
burner control knob down and turn clockwise.)
For barbecues equipped with a side burner, push the
burner control knob in and turn clockwise to OFF.
WARNING: The burner control knobs must be in
the OFF position before turning on the LP tank valve.
If they are not in the OFF position, when you turn
on the LP tank valve, the excess flow control will
activate, limiting the flow of gas from the LP tank. If
this should occur, turn OFF the LP tank valve and
burner control knobs and start over.
When the excess flow control is activated,
a small amount of gas is still flowing to the
burners. After turning OFF the tank and
burner control knobs, wait at least 5 minutes
for the gas to clear before attempting to light
the barbecue. Failure to do so may result in
an explosive flame-up which can cause
serious bodily injury or death.
