General Instructions 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, if you move. Liquid Propane (LP) gas supply is easy to use and gives you more cooking control than charcoal fuel. • These instructions will give you the minimum requirements for assembling your Weber® gas barbecue.
