WARNING: Your Weber® gas barbecue shall not be used under an unprotected combustible roof or overhang. WARNING: Your Weber® gas barbecue is not intended to be installed in or on recreational vehicles and/or boats.
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS 5 If burners go out during cooking, open lid, turn off all burners and wait five minutes before relighting. Preheating - Your Weber® gas barbecue is an energy-efficient appliance. It operates at an economical low BTU rate. To preheat: after lighting, close lid and turn all burners to high (HH). Preheating to between 500° and 550° F (260° and 290° C) will take 10 to 15 minutes depending on conditions such as air temperature and wind.
GAS INSTRUCTIONS 6 CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS REMOVE CONTROL PANEL 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 open flames will result in a fire or explosion which can cause serious bodily injury or death and damage to property. WARNING: You should check for gas leaks every time you disconnect and reconnect a gas fitting. Part required: Phillips Screwdriver. Remove the burner control knobs (1).
GAS INSTRUCTIONS Put your fingers under the front edge of the control panel and lift off. Completely remove the control panel (4) from the cooking box assembly exposing the valves, burners, igniter, and manifold. Remove the Front Panel by sliding the panel up and out of the slots.
GAS INSTRUCTIONS 8 Check: 1) Gas line-to-manifold connections. WARNING: If there is a leak at connection (1), retighten the fitting with a wrench and recheck for leaks with soap and water solution. If a leak persists after re-tightening the fitting, turn OFF the gas. DO NOT OPERATE THE GRILL. Contact the Customer Service Representative in your area using the contact information on our web site.

GAS INSTRUCTIONS 9 REINSTALL CONTROL PANEL Parts required: control panel, screws, and burner control knobs. Place the control panel back onto the control panel brackets on either side of the front of the cooking box. Line up screws with screw holes on both the control panel and control panel brackets. Tighten screws. Reinstall burner control knobs & igniter wires (if necessary). Place corresponding control knobs down onto the valve stems.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS GRILLING METHODS NOTE: If grill looses heat while cooking refer to the troubleshooting section of this manual. You can adjust the Left and Right burners in each burner set as desired. The control settings are High (H), Medium (M), Low (L), or Off (O). If burners go out during cooking, turn off all burners and wait 5 minutes before relighting. WARNING: Check the bottom tray and catch pan for grease build-up before each use.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 11 INDIRECT COOKING GRILLING TIPS & HELPFUL HINTS The Indirect Method is similar to roasting, but with the added benefits of that grilled texture, flavor, and appearance you can’t get from an oven. To set up for Indirect cooking, gas burners are lit on either side of the food but not directly beneath it.

Open the lid. Make sure all burner control knobs are turned OFF. (Push each burner control knob down and turn clockwise to ensure they are in the OFF position.) Turn the gas supply valve on.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS USING THE SMOKER The smoker uses presoaked wood chips. For best results with faster cooking foods like steaks, burgers and chops, etc., we recommend using finer wood chips because they ignite and create smoke faster. For longer cooking foods such as roasts, chicken and turkeys, etc., we recommend using larger wood chunks because they ignite slowly and provide smoke for a longer period of time.

MAINTENANCE WEBER® SPIDER /INSECT SCREENS 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(1) of the burner tubes. This blocks the normal gas flow, and can cause the gas to flow back out of the combustion air opening. This could result in a fire in and around the combustion air openings, under the control panel, causing serious damage to your barbecue.
MAINTENANCE 24 REPLACE MAIN BURNERS 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. Your Summit® gas grill must be OFF and cool. Turn gas OFF at source. Disconnect regulator. Remove cooking grates. Remove Smoker box. Remove Flavorizer® bars. To remove control panel refer to “Remove the control panel” under “Check for Gas Leaks.” Disconnect all ignition wires from the Ignition Module.
