STANDARDS AND CODES INFORMATION

Your Weber Gas Barbecue is a portable outdoor cooking
appliance. With the Weber Gas Barbecue you can grill,
barbecue, roast and bake with results that are difficult to
duplicate with indoor kitchen appliances. The closed lid
and Flavorizer Bars produce that "outdoor" flavor in the
food. 

The Weber Gas Barbecue is portable so you can easily
change its location in your yard or on your patio.
Portability means you can take your Weber Gas
Barbecue with you if you move.

The natural gas supply is easy to use and gives you more
cooking control than charcoal fuel.

These instructions will give you the minimum
requirements for operating and maintaining your
Weber Gas Barbecue. Please read the instructions
carefully before using your Weber Gas Barbecue.
Improper assembly can be dangerous.

Not for use by children.

If there are local codes that apply to portable gas
grills, you will have to conform to them. If there are no
local codes, you must conform to the latest edition of
the National Fuel Gas Code:  ANSI Z 223.1.

This Weber Gas Barbecue is designed for natural
(piped in city) gas only. Do not use Liquid Propane
(LP) bottled gas.The valves, orifices and hose are for
natural gas only.

Do not use with charcoal fuel.

The Weber Gas Barbecue should be checked for gas
leaks and any obstructions in the burner tubes before
using. (See Maintenance Section.)

Check that the areas under the control panel and the
bottom tray are free from debris that might obstruct
the flow of combustion or ventilation air. (See
Maintenance Section.)
