OPERATION
m WARNING: The burner control knobs must be
in the OFF position before turning on the liquid
propane tank valve. If they are not in the OFF
position, when you turn on the LP tank valve, the
“excess gas flow control” feature will activate,
limiting the flow of gas from the LP tank. If this
should occur, turn o the LP tank valve and
burner control knobs. Start over.
m DANGER: When the “excess gas flow control”
feature is activated, a small amount of gas is
still flowing to the burners. After turning o the
tank and burner control knobs, wait at least five
minutes for the gas to clear before attempting to
light the grill. Failure to do so may result in an
explosive flare-up, which can cause serious bodily
injury or death.
m WARNING: Do not operate the grill with the
protective hard cover closed. The protective hard
cover is to be used for storage purposes only to
protect the griddle.
m WARNING: Open protective hard cover during
ignition. Failure to open the protective hard cover
while igniting the grill’s burners, or not waiting
five minutes to allow the gas to clear if the grill
does not light, may result in an explosive flare-up
which can cause serious bodily injury or death.
m WARNING: Do not lean over open grill while
igniting or cooking.
m WARNING: Each burner must be ignited
individually using the snap ignition.
m WARNING: If ignition does not occur within four
seconds of attempting to light the first burner,
turn the burner control knob to the o position
and repeat the lighting procedure a second time.
If the burner still does not light, turn the burner
control knob to OFF and wait five minutes to let
the gas clear before you try again or try to light
with a match.
Igniting the Grill
Using the Snap Ignition System to Ignite Burners
Each control knob snap igniter creates a spark from the
igniter electrode to the burner lighting tube. You generate
the energy for the spark by pushing in the control knob
and turning it to the start/high position. Each control knob
operates an individual burner, and each burner ignites
independently. Ignite the burners starting from left to
right. All burners should be lit for preheating, however, all
burners do not have to be lit while cooking.
1) Open the protective hard cover (A).
m WARNING: Do not operate the grill with the hard cover
closed. The hard cover is to be used for storage purposes
only to protect the griddle.
2) Check that all burner control knobs are in the o
position. Check by pushing in and turning knobs
clockwise (B).
Note: It is important that all burner control knobs are in the
o position before turning on the LP tank. If they are not,
the flow limiting device built into the regulator will activate,
limiting the flow of gas from the LP tank.
3) Turn the LP tank on by slowly turning the tank valve
counterclockwise; wait 60 seconds (C).
Note: It is important that the LP tank is turned on slowly.
Ifit is opened too quickly, the flow limiting device built into
the regulator will activate, limiting the flow of gas from the
LP tank.
4) Begin with the burner furthest to the left. Push the
burner control knob in (D) and turn it counterclockwise
to the start/high
position until you hear it snap (E).
Continue to hold the control knob in for two seconds
after you hear the snap. This action will spark the igniter
and light the burner.
5) Check that the burner is lit by looking through the space
in between the cooking surface and the control panel.
6) If the burner does not ignite, turn burner control knob
to the o
position and repeat the lighting procedure
a second time. If the burner still does not light, turn the
burner control knob to OFF and wait five minutes to let the
gas clear before you try again or try to light with a match.
7) If the burner ignites, repeat steps 4 through 6 to light the
remaining burners.
Should the burners fail to ignite using the electronic ignition,
refer to the TROUBLESHOOTING section in this Owner's
Guide. Thereyou will find instructions on igniting the grill
with a match to help determine the exact problem.
Preheat the Griddle
Preheating the griddle is critical to successful cooking. It
helps prevent food from sticking, and ensures the griddle is
hot enough to properly cook your food. Italso helps burn o
any residue of a previously cooked meal.
1. Open the protective hard cover.
2. Ignite your griddle according to the ignition instruc-
tions in this Owner's Manual.
3. Preheat the griddle for10 minutes. WEBER
recommends preheating the griddle to the
temperature you want to cook at (i.e. if you’re cooking
pancakes, preheat on LOW. If you’re cooking smash
burgers, preheat on HIGH).
To Extinguish Burners
1) Push each burner control knob in and then turn
clockwise all the way to the o position.
2) Turn gas supply o at the LP tank.
