IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT LPG CONNECTIONS
FUELING YOUR BARBECUE
Before using your barbecue
for the first time, you need to
obtain an LPG cylinder. New
LPG cylinders can be purchased
full; empty LPG cylinders can
be refilled or exchanged. You
may choose to purchase a spare
LPG cylinder so that you don't
run out of fuel in the middle of
cooking a meal.
m
DANGER
NEVER store a spare LPG cylinder under
or near WEBER gas appliances. NEVER fill
the LPG cylinder beyond 80% full. Failure to
follow these statements exactly may result
in a fire causing death or serious injury.
INSTALLING THE LPG CYLINDER
The LPG cylinder is installed on the LPG cylinder rest or
on the ground . A LPG cylinder that is taller than 465 mm
will not fit on the cart and needs to be set upright in a
stable position on the ground . The minimum LPG cylinder
capacity for this barbecue is 9 kg .
Prepare Barbecue for LPG Cylinder Installation
A) Check that all burner control knobs are in the off
( ) position . Your barbecue was shipped with burner
control knobs in the off ( ) position, but you should
check to be sure that they are turned off . Check by
pushing in and turning knobs clockwise . If they do
not turn, they are off . If they do turn, continue turning
them clockwise until they stop; then they are off .
WHAT IS A REGULATOR?
Your WEBER gas barbecue
is equipped with a pressure
regulator, which is a device
to control and maintain
uniform gas pressure as gas is
released from the LPG cylinder.

IMPORTANT NOTICE:
We recommend that you replace the
gas hose assembly on your WEBER
gas barbecue every five years. Some
countries may have requirements that
the gas hose be replaced within less
than five years, in which case that
country’s requirement would take
precedence.
For replacement hose, regulator, and
valve assemblies, contact the Customer
Service Representative in your area
using the contact information on our
web site.

REGULATOR CONNECTIONS
Your WEBER gas barbecue is equipped with a pressure
regulator, which is a device to control and maintain uniform

Each WEBER pressure regulator is designed for vapor
withdrawal.
• The pressure regulator supplied with the WEBER
gas barbecue must be used. This regulator is set for
2.75 kPa.
• Replacement pressure regulator and hose
assemblies must be those specified by Weber-Stephen
Products LLC.
• Be sure the small vent hole on the regulator does not
collect water. This vent should be kept free of dirt,
grease, bugs, etc.
