Installation & Leak Checking
Installing the Propane Cartridge
This appliance shall only be used with:
i. a 100% propane fuel, non-refillable gas cylinder
complying to US DOT-39 with a CGA600 connection,
or;
ii. ULPG supplied from a refillable cylinder complying
with AS2030.1, using the supplied high pressure gas
hose with CGA600 connection.
1) Make sure burner control knob is turned off by
pushing it in and turning it clockwise to the off ( )
position.
2) Push propane cartridge into regulator and turn
clockwise until tight (A). Gas flows from the propane
cartridge once it is connected.
With the propane cartridge in place, the release lever of
the cart becomes locked, preventing the barbecue from
being lowered.

Removing the Propane Cartridge

Every time you need to lower the barbecue cart, or your
propane cartridge needs to be replaced, follow these
instructions to remove it.
1) Make sure burner control knob is turned off by
pushing it in and turning it clockwise to the off ( )
position.
2) Unscrew propane cartridge from regulator and
remove it from the barbecue.

Storage and/or Travel

Disconnect the cartridge if: 1) the cartridge is empty;
2) the barbecue is being transported; 3) the barbecue is
being stored in a garage or other enclosed area; 4) the
barbecue is not in use.
• Place dust cap on cartridge valve outlet whenever the
cartridge is not in use. Only install the type of dust cap
on the cartridge valve outlet that is provided with the
cartridge. Other types of caps or plugs may result in
leakage of gas.
• Do not store a disconnected propane cartridge in a
building, garage, or any other enclosed area.
• Do not store or transport a disconnected propane
cartridge inside the barbecue.
For barbecues that have been stored or left unused for a
while, it is important to follow these guidelines:
• The WEBER gas barbecue should be checked for gas
leaks and any obstructions in the burner tube before
it is used. (Refer to “CHECKING FOR GAS LEAKS” and
“ANNUAL MAINTENANCE.”)
• Check that the areas under the cookbox and the
removable catch pan are free from debris that might
obstruct the flow of combustion or ventilation air.
• The spider/insect screen should also be checked for any
obstructions. (Refer to “ANNUAL MAINTENANCE.”)

m WARNING: It may be hazardous to attempt to fit

other types of gas containers.
m This appliance must only be serviced by an
authorized person.

m WARNING: Do not use a wrench to tighten the

connection. Using a wrench could damage the
regulator coupling and could cause a leak.
m CAUTION: Use cartridges that are marked
"Propane" only.

10
 GETTING STARTED
What is a Leak Check?
Once the propane cartridge is properly installed, it is B
necessary to perform a leak check. A leak check is a
reliable way to verify that gas is not escaping after you
connect the cartridge. The fuel system in your barbecue
features factory-made connections that have been
thoroughly checked for gas leaks and the burners have
been flame-tested.
WEBER recommends performing a thorough leak check
after assembly, as well as every time you disconnect
and reconnect a gas fitting. The following fittings should
be tested:
• Where the cartridge connects to the regulator.
• Where the regulator connects to the valve.

Checking for Gas Leaks

If there is a leak from your appliance (smell of gas) and
you cannot stop the gas flow, remove the appliance to a
well-ventilated location away from any ignition source.
Check for leaks using soapy water. Do not try to detect C
leaks using a flame.
1) Make sure burner control knob is turned off by
pushing it in and turning it clockwise to the off ( )
position.
2) Wet fittings (B) with a soap and water solution, using
a spray bottle, brush, or rag. You can make your own
soap and water solution by mixing 20% liquid soap
with 80% water; or, you can purchase leak check
solution in the plumbing section of any hardware
store.
3) If bubbles appear there is a leak:
a) If the leak is at the cartridge (C), remove the
propane cartridge. DO NOT OPERATE THE
Barbecue. Install a different propane cartridge
and recheck for leaks with a soap and water
solution. If the leak persists, remove the propane
cartridge. DO NOT OPERATE THE BARBECUE.
Contact the Customer Service Representative in
your area using the contact information on our
D
website.
b) If the leak is at the regulator (D), remove
the propane cartridge. NEVER ATTEMPT TO
TIGHTEN THE REGULATOR. DO NOT OPERATE
THE BARBECUE. Contact the Customer Service
Representative in your area using the contact
information on our website.
If a leak is present, contact the Customer Service
Representative in your area using the contact
information on our website.
4) If bubbles do not appear, leak checking is complete:
a) Rinse connections with water.
NOTE: Since some leak test solutions, including soap and
water, may be slightly corrosive, all connections should be
rinsed with water after checking for leaks.

m DANGER: Do not use a flame to check for gas

leaks. Be sure there are no sparks or open
flames in the area while you check for leaks.
m DANGER: Leaking gas may cause a fire or
explosion.
m DANGER: Do not operate the barbecue if there
is a gas leak present.
m DANGER: If you see, smell, or hear the hiss of
gas escaping from the propane cartridge:
1) Move away from propane cartridge.
2) Do not attempt to correct the problem
yourself.
3) Call your fire department.
m DANGER: Do not store a spare cartridge under
or near this barbecue.

ULPG Cylinder Installation & A E
Leak Checking
The Traveler includes the accessories required to connect
to a standard refillable ULPG cylinder. To prepare the
barbecue for use with a ULPG cylinder, you will first need
to connect the gas hose and install the cylinder holder.

Connecting and Routing the Gas Hose

1) Attach the male fitting of the gas hose to the
regulator with the CGA600 connection. Tighten by
turning the fitting clockwise (A). Hand tighten only.
While using the gas hose, use care to route the gas hose
away from the cookbox and other hot surfaces (B).
Only use the hose assembly as supplied with this
appliance for connection to the cylinder - DO NOT USE
ADAPTORS.

Installing the Cylinder Holder

1) Place the cylinder holder within the cart, with the top
hooks resting around the upper frame legs (C).
2) Insert the two bottom wire supports into the holes at
the bottom of the frame legs (D).
NOTE: Once installed, the cylinder holder can remain
attached to the cart. It automatically folds flat as the
barbucue is lowered for transportation and storage.
F
B
Inspect the Cylinder
Check the ULPG cylinder before use to ensure a proper
gas connection.
• Confirm that the ULPG cylinder valve is fully closed.
Close by turning valve clockwise.
• Confirm that the ULPG cylinder valve is the proper
mating type for the gas hose.
• Inspect the ULPG cylinder valve for damage or debris. If
damaged, return ULPG cylinder to local retailer.

Cylinder Installation
1) Place the ULPG cylinder on the cylinder holder
2) Turn the ULPG cylinder so the opening of the valve C
faces the side or back of the barbecue.
3) Secure the cylinder with the cylinder strap (E).

Connect the Gas Hose to the Cylinder

1) Check that the burner control knob is in the
off position. Check by pushing in and turning knob
clockwise.
2) Connect the gas hose coupling to the ULPG cylinder,
Hand tighten only.
a) Tighten by turning the fitting clockwise (F).

m IMPORTANT: We recommend that you replace

the gas hose assembly on your 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.

performing a thorough leak check after assembly, as
well as annually. The following fittings should be tested:
• Where the cylinder connects to the gas hose.
• Where the gas hose connects to the regulator.
• Where the regulator connects to the burner valve.

Checking for Gas Leaks

If there is a leak from your appliance (smell of gas)
immediately attempt to turn off the cylinder valve.
Remove the appliance to a well-ventilated location away
from any ignition source. Check for leaks using soapy
water. Do not try to detect leaks using a flame.
1) Wet fittings (H) with a soap and water solution, using
a spray bottle, brush, or rag. You can make your own
soap and water solution by mixing 20% liquid soap
with 80% water; or, you can purchase leak check
solution in the plumbing section of any hardware
store. I
2) Slowly open gas supply by turning cylinder valve
anti-clockwise while checking for bubbles.
3) If bubbles appear there is a leak:
a) If the leak is at the cylinder (I), turn off the gas.
DO NOT OPERATE THE BARBECUE. Disconnect the
ULPG cylinder and return the ULPG cylinder to
your local retailer.
b) If the leak is at the fitting indicated in illustration
(J), re-tighten the fitting and recheck for leaks
with soap and water solution. If leak persists, turn
off the gas. DO NOT OPERATE THE BARBECUE.
c) If the leak is at the regulator (K), turn off the gas.
J
DO NOT OPERATE THE BARBECUE. Contact the
Customer Service Representative in your area
using the contact information on our website.
If a leak is present, contact the Customer Service
Representative in your area using the contact
information on our website.
4) If bubbles do not appear, leak checking is complete:
a) Turn gas supply off at the ULPG cylinder and rinse
connections with water.
NOTE: Since some leak test solutions, including soap and
water, may be slightly corrosive, all connections should be
rinsed with water after checking for leaks.

 OPERATION
The Very First Time You Barbecue A B
Perform an Initial Burn-Off
Heat the barbecue on the highest setting, with the lid
closed, for at least 20 minutes prior to barbecuing for
the first time.

Every Time You Barbecue

Meal-to-Meal Maintenance
The Meal-To-Meal Maintenance plan includes the
following simple, yet important, steps that should
always be performed prior to barbecuing.

Check for Grease C

Your barbecue was built with a grease management
system that funnels grease away from food and into a
disposable container. As you cook, grease is channeled
down the cookbox and into a disposable drip tray that
lines the slide-out catch pan. This system should
be cleaned each and every time you barbecue to
prevent fires.
1) Confirm that the barbecue is off and cool.
2) Remove the slide-out catch pan (A). Check for
excessive amounts of grease in the disposable drip
pan that lines the catch pan. Discard disposable drip
pan when necessary and replace with a new one.
3) Reinstall all components.

Preheat the Barbecue

Preheating the barbecue is critical to successful
barbecuing. Preheating helps to prevent food from
sticking to the grills and gets the grills hot enough to
sear properly. It also burns off residue of a previously
cooked meal.
1) Open the barbecue lid.
2) Ignite your barbecue according to the ignition
instructions in this Owner's Manual.
3) Close lid.
4) Preheat the barbecue with the burner on the
start/high position for 10 to 15 minutes or until
thermometer registers 260° C (500° F) (B).

Clean the Cooking Grills

After preheating, any bits of food or debris left over
from previous use will be easier to remove. Cleaned
grills will also prevent your next meal from sticking.
1) Brush the grills with a stainless steel bristle
barbecue brush immediately after preheating (C).

m DANGER: Do not line the slide-out catch pan or

cookbox with aluminum foil.
m DANGER: Check the slide-out catch pan for
grease build-up before each use. Remove
excess grease to avoid a grease fire.
m WARNING: Use caution when removing slide-out
catch pan and disposing of hot grease.
m WARNING: Use heat-resistant barbecue mitts or
gloves when operating barbecue.
m WARNING: Barbecue brushes should be
checked for loose bristles and excessive
wear on a regular basis. Replace brush if any
loose bristles are found on cooking grills or
brush. WEBER recommends purchasing a new
stainless steel bristle barbecue brush at the
beginning of every spring.
m WARNING: Keep ventilation openings around
cylinder clear and free of debris.

 OPERATION
Igniting the Barbecue A
Using the Ignition System to Ignite the
Barbecue
The ignition system ignites the burner with a spark from
the igniter electrode. You generate the energy for the
spark by pushing the igniter button. You will hear the
igniter ticking. After preheating on high is complete,
you may adjust the burner control knob to your desired
setting for barbecuing.
1) Open the barbecue lid (A).
2) Check that the burner control knob is in the off
position. Check by pushing in and turning knob
clockwise (B).
3) Confirm that the cartridge/cylinder is properly
installed and gas is on. Refer to “Installing the
B
Propane Cartridge/Cylinder Installation."
4) Push the burner control knob in and turn it
counterclockwise to the start/high position (C).
5) Push the red igniter button several times, so it clicks
each time (D).
6) Check that the burner is lit by looking through the
cooking grills. You should see a flame.
7) If the burner does not ignite, turn burner control
knob to the off position and wait five minutes to
allow the gas to clear before attempting to light the
burner again.
Should the burner fail to ignite using the ignition
system, refer to the TROUBLESHOOTING section.
There you will find instructions on igniting the barbecue C
with a match to help determine the exact problem.

To Extinguish Burners
1) Push the burner control knob in and then turn
clockwise all the way to the off position.

m WARNING: Open lid during ignition.

m WARNING: Do not lean over open barbecue while

igniting or cooking.
m WARNING: If ignition does not occur within five
seconds, turn the burner control knob to the off
position. Wait five minutes to allow accumulated
gas to dissipate, and then repeat the lighting
procedure.

 PRODUCT CARE
Cleaning and Maintenance A C
Cleaning the Inside of the Barbecue
Over time, the performance of your barbecue can
diminish if it has not been maintained properly. Low
temperatures, uneven heat, and food sticking to cooking
grills are all signs that cleaning and maintenance are
overdue.
A thorough cleaning is recommended when the
barbecue is going to be folded and stored vertically,
or at least twice a year. Consistent use may require
quarterly cleanings. When your barbecue is off and cool,
start by cleaning the inside, from the top down.

Cleaning the Lid

From time to time you may notice “paint-like” flakes B
on the inside of the lid. During use, grease and smoke
vapors slowly change into carbon and deposit on the
inside of your lid. These deposits will eventually peel,
and looks very similar to paint. These deposits are non-
toxic, but the flakes could fall onto your food if you do
D
not clean the lid regularly.
1) Brush the carbonized grease from the inside of the
lid with a stainless steel bristle barbecue brush (A).
To minimize further build-up, the inside of the lid can
be wiped with a paper towel after barbecuing while
the barbecue is still warm (not hot).

Cleaning the Cooking Grills

If you have been cleaning your cooking grills as
recommended, the debris on your grills should be
minimal.
1) With grills installed, brush the debris off your
cooking grills with a stainless steel bristle barbecue
brush (B).
2) Take the grills out and set aside.
E

Cleaning the Burner

Two areas on the burner that are key to optimum
performance are the ports (small openings running
along the length of the burner) and the spider/insect
screens on the ends of the burner. Keeping these areas
clean is essential for safe operation.
Cleaning the Burner Ports
1) Use a clean stainless steel bristle barbecue brush
to clean the outside of the burners by brushing
across the top of the burner ports (C). Do not brush
lengthwise.along the tube, as this will only brush
debris from one port to another.
2) When cleaning the burner, avoid damaging the
ignition electrode by carefully brushing around it.
Cleaning the Spider Screens
1) Locate the end of the burner behind the control panel
where it meets the valve (D).
2) Clean the spider/insect screen on the burner using a
soft bristle brush (E).

m WARNING: Turn your barbecue off and wait for it

to cool before thoroughly cleaning.
m WARNING: When cleaning the burners, never
use a brush that has already been used to clean
the cooking grills. Never put sharp objects into
the burner port holes.
m CAUTION: Do not place any barbecue
components onto the side tables as they may
scratch the paint or stainless steel surfaces.
m CAUTION: Do not use any of the following to
clean your barbecue: abrasive stainless steel
polishes or paints, cleaners that contain acid,
mineral spirits or xylene, oven cleaner, abrasive
cleansers (kitchen cleansers), or abrasive
cleaning pads.

16
 PRODUCT CARE
Cleaning the Cookbox
Look inside the cookbox for any grease accumulation
F
or leftover food particles. Excessive accumulation can
cause a fire.
1) Use a plastic scraper to scrape debris off the sides
and bottom of the barbecue into the opening in
bottom of the cookbox (F). This opening leads debris
into the slide-out catch pan.

Cleaning the Grease Management System

The grease management system consists of a slide-
out catch pan and a disposable drip tray(G). These
components were designed to be easily removed,
cleaned, and replaced; an essential step every time you
prepare to barbecue. Instructions on inspecting the
grease management system can be found in MEAL-TO- G
MEAL MAINTENANCE.

Cleaning the Outside of the Barbecue

The outside of your barbecue may include stainless
steel, porcelain-enameled, and plastic surfaces. WEBER
recommends the following methods based on the
surface type.

Cleaning Stainless Steel Surfaces

Clean stainless steel using a non-toxic, non-abrasive
stainless steel cleaner or polish designed for use on
outdoor products and barbecues. Use a microfiber cloth
to clean in the direction of the grain of the stainless
steel. Do not use paper towels.
Note: Do not risk scratching your stainless steel with
abrasive pastes. Pastes do not clean or polish. They
