Lighting; Crossover Ignition System; To Extinguish - Weber Platinum II 2200 LP Operating Manual

LIGHTING THE MAIN BURNERS
Summary lighting instructions are on the control panel.
DANGER
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.

Crossover Ignition System

Note - The Crossover Ignition System ignites the Front
burner with a spark from the igniter electrode inside the
Gas Catcher Ignition Chamber. You generate the energy
for the spark by pushing the Crossover Ignition Button
until it clicks.
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
authorized replacement manifold assembly. Order
from Weber-Stephen Products Co., Customer
Service Center or authorized dealer.

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.
4) Turn the tank on by turning the tank valve
counterclockwise slowly, and open the valve completely.
WARNING: Do not lean over open barbecue. Keep
your face and body at least one foot away from the
matchlight hole when lighting the barbecue.
5) Push Front burner control knob down and turn to
START/HI.
6) Push the Crossover Ignition Button several times, so it
clicks each time.
7) Check that the burner is lit through the matchlight hole on
the front of the cooking box. (For closed cart models,
open the right door to access the matchlight hole.)
WARNING: If the burner does not light, turn the Front
burner control knob to OFF and wait 5 minutes to let
the gas clear before you try again or try to light with
a match.
8) After the FRONT burner is lit you can turn on the
other burners.
Note - Always light the FRONT burner first. The other
burners ignite from the FRONT burner.

TO EXTINGUISH

Turn gas supply OFF at the source, then push down
and turn each burner control knob clockwise to OFF.
