Important LP Cylinder Information
Failure to follow these DANGER statements exactly may
result in a fire causing death or serious injury.
ƽDANGER
ƽNEVER store a spare LP Cylinder under or near this
barbecue.
ƽNEVER fill the tank beyond 80% full.
Your Weber
®
gas grill is equipped with a cylinder
supply system designed for vapor withdrawal.
ƽWARNING: Only use this grill outdoors in a well-
ventilated area. Do not use in a garage, building,
breezeway or any other enclosed area.
The LP cylinder supplied with your barbecue is
equipped with an OPD (Overfilling Prevention Device)
and a QCC1 or Type 1 (CGA810) cylinder connection.
The cylinder connection is compatible with the
barbecue connection.
This is a secondary device to prevent the overfilling of your
LP cylinder. The proper filling methods for the filling of your
cylinder are by weight or volume, as described in NFPA 58.
Please make sure your filling station fills your LP cylinder
by weight or volume. Ask your filling station to read purging
and filling instructions on the LP cylinder before attempting
to fill.
ƽWARNING: Do not exchange the LP tank provided
with your barbecue, unless the exchange LP tank is
equipped with an OPD. Otherwise you will lose the
OPD (Overfilling Prevention Device) feature. If there
is not an LP tank available for exchange equipped
with an OPD, we recommend that you have your LP
tank filled at an authorized LP gas dealer by a
qualified attendant.

Fill liquid propane cylinder
Note - The liquid propane cylinder manufacturer is
responsible for the materials, workmanship and
performance of the cylinder. If the cylinder has a defect,
malfunctions, or you have a question regarding the
cylinder, call the cylinder manufacturer’s customer service
center. The phone number is on the warning decal, which
is permanently attached to the cylinder. If the cylinder
manufacturer has not resolved the issue to your
satisfaction, then contact the Customer Service
Representative in your region using the contact information
sheet provided with your manual.
To fill, take the liquid propane cylinder and filler adapter to
an RV center or look up gas-propane in the phone book for
other sources of liquid propane gas.
ƽ WARNING: We recommend that your liquid propane
cylinder be filled at an authorized liquid propane
gas dealer by a qualified attendant, who fills the
tank by weight.
IMPROPER FILLING IS DANGEROUS.
Tell your liquid propane dealer that this is a new liquid
propane cylinder. The air must be removed from a new
liquid propane cylinder before the initial filling. Your liquid
propane cylinder dealer is equipped to do this.
The liquid propane cylinder must be installed, transported
and stored in an upright position, and should not be
dropped or handled roughly.
Never store or transport the liquid propane cylinder where
temperatures can reach 125° Fahrenheit (too hot to hold
by hand – for example: do not leave the liquid propane
cylinder in a car on a hot day).
For full instructions on safe handling of liquid propane
cylinders, see Section “Operating”.
