Clean if necessary, following the procedures outlined in the “General Maintenance” section of this manual. ■ Check all gas fittings for leaks. DANGER Do not use an open flame to check for gas leaks. Be sure there are no sparks or open flames in the area while you check for leaks. Sparks or flames will result in a fire or explosion, which can cause serious bodily injury or death, and damage to property. (1) WARNING: You should check for gas leaks every time you disconnect and reconnect a gas fitting. Note - All factory-made connections have been thoroughly checked for gas leaks. The burners have been flame tested. As a safety precaution however, you should recheck all fittings for leaks before using your Weber Gas Barbecue. Shipping and handling may have loosened or damaged a gas fitting. WARNING: Perform these leak checks even if your barbecue was dealer- or store-assembled. You will need: a soap and water solution and a rag or brush to apply it. To perform leak checks: Make sure all Burners are in the off position. Turn on gas supply. WARNING: Do not ignite burners while leak checking. Check for leaks by wetting the connections with the soap and water solution and watching for bubbles. If bubbles form, or if a bubble grows, there is a leak. Note - Since some leak test solutions, including soap and water, may be slightly corrosive, all connections should be rinsed with water after checking for leaks. (2) (3) Inspection and Cleaning of the Weber Spider Stopper™ Guards To inspect the Spider Stopper Guards, remove the control panel and look to see if they have dust or dirt on their outside surfaces. If they are dirty, brush off the outside surface of the Spider Stopper Guards with a soft bristle brush (an old toothbrush for example). Check that there are no gaps in the Spider Stopper Guards’ seams or in the fit around the burners or valves. (See Section “General Maintenance.”) D-4 Main Burner Flame Pattern General Maintenance The Weber Gas Barbecue burners have been factory set for the correct air and gas mixture. The correct flame pattern is shown. 1) Burner tube 2) Tips occasionally flicker yellow 3) Light blue 4) Dark blue Weber Spider Stopper™ Guards Your Weber Gas Barbecue, as well as any outdoor gas appliance, is a target for spiders and other insects. They can nest in the venturi section (Venturi(1), air shutter(2), venturi fin(3) ) of the burner tubes. This blocks the normal gas flow, and can cause the gas to flow back out of the air shutter. This could result in a fire in and around the air shutters, under the control panel, causing serious damage to your barbecue. (1) (1) (2) (3) (4) (2) If the flames do not appear to be uniform throughout the burner tube, follow the burner cleaning procedures. (3) The Weber Spider Stopper™ Guard(1) is factory installed. It fits tightly around the air shutter section of the burner tube and the valve, thereby preventing spiders and other insects access to the burner tubes through the air shutter openings. Main Burner Cleaning Procedure Turn off the gas supply. Remove the manifold. Look inside each burner with a flashlight. (1) Clean the inside of the burners with a wire (a straightened-out coat hanger will work). Check and clean the air shutter opening at the ends of the burners. Check and clean the valve orifices at the base of the valves. Use a brass bristle brush to clean outside of burners. This is to make sure all the burner ports are fully open. CAUTION: Do not enlarge the burner ports when cleaning. We recommend that you inspect the Weber Spider Stopper Guards at least once a year. (See Section “Annual Maintenance”.) Also inspect and clean the Spider Stopper Guards if any of the following symptoms should ever occur: 1) The smell of gas in conjunction with the burner flames appearing yellow and lazy. 2) Barbecue does not reach temperature. 3) Barbecue heats unevenly. 4) One or more of the burners do not ignite. DANGER Failure to correct the above mentioned symptoms may result in a fire, which can cause serious bodily injury or death, and cause damage to property.

Pull the manifold and valve assembly out of the burners and carefully set it down. (2) (1) (1) 6) Slide the burner assembly out from under the guide screw and washer(1) in the corners of the cooking box. (1) D-6 9) Reinstall the Spider Stopper Guards. Slightly rotate the Spider Stopper Guards so that the seams are in line with the Venturi fins(1). There should be no gaps in the seams or in the fit around the burners(2) and valves(3). Crossover® Ignition System Operations If the Crossover Ignition System fails to ignite the Left burner, light the Left burner with a match. If the Left burner lights with a match, then check the Crossover Ignition System. ■ Check that both the white(1) and black(2) ignition wires are attached properly. (1) (3) (1) (2) CAUTION: If the Spider Stopper Guards do not fit tightly, contact the Customer Service Representative in your region using the contact information sheet provided with your manual. WARNING: After reinstalling the gas lines, they should be leak checked with a soap and water solution before using the barbecue. (See Step: “Check for gas leaks.”) (2) ■ Check that the Crossover Ignition button pushes the igniter (button) down, and returns to the up position. ■ Check to see if the igniter is loose in the frame. Tighten if necessary; See Step “Install igniter” for correct procedure. If the Crossover Ignition System still fails to light, Contact the Customer Service Representative in your region using the contact information sheet provided with your manual. D-7 Troubleshooting Problem Check Cure Burners burn with a yellow or orange flame, in conjunction with the smell of gas. Inspect Weber Spider Stopper Guards for possible obstructions. (Blockage of holes.) Clean Weber Spider Stopper Guards. (See Section “Annual Maintenance”) Burner does not light, or flame is low in HIGH position. Is fuel hose bent or kinked? Straighten fuel hose. Does the Front burner light with a match? If you can light the Front burner with a match, then check the Crossover Ignition System. Are you preheating barbecue in the prescribed manner? All burners on high for 10 to 15 minutes for preheating. Are the cooking grates and Flavorizer bars heavily coated with burned-on grease? Clean thoroughly. (See Section “Cleaning”) Is the bottom tray “dirty” and not allowing grease to flow into catch pan? Clean bottom tray Burner flame pattern is erratic. Flame is low when burner is on HIGH. Flames do not run the whole length of the burner tube. Are burners clean? Clean burners. (See Section “General Maintenance”.) Inside of lid appears to be “peeling.” (Resembles paint peeling.) The lid is porcelain-on-steel, not paint. It cannot “peel”. What you are seeing is baked on grease that has turned to carbon and is flaking off. THIS IS NOT A DEFECT. Clean thoroughly. (See Section “Cleaning”.) Experiencing flare-ups: CAUTION: Do not line the bottom tray with aluminum foil. If problems cannot be corrected by using these methods, please contact the Customer Service Representative in your region using the contact information sheet provided with your manual D-8
