IMPORTANT LP CYLINDER INFORMATION Failure to follow these DANGER statements exactly may result in a fire causing death or serious injury. DANGER NEVER store a spare LP Cylinder near this fireplace. NEVER fill the tank beyond 80% full. Your Weber® gas fireplace is equipped for a cylinder supply system designed for vapor withdrawal. WARNING: Only use this fireplace outdoors in a wellventilated area. Do not use in a garage, building, breezeway or any other enclosed area. The proper filling methods for the filling of your cylinder are by weight or volume. 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. DANGER Do not operate fireplace until ALL rain shields have been removed. Failure to do so could result in a fire or explosion which can cause serious bodily injury or death, and damage to property. CHECK THAT THE BURNER VALVE IS OFF Valve is shipped in the OFF position, but you should check to be sure that it is turned OFF. Check by pushing down and turning clockwise. If it does not turn, it is off. Proceed to the next step. If it does turn continue turning it clockwise until it stops, then it is off. Proceed to the next step. 12 GAS INSTRUCTIONS CONNECTING THE LIQUID PROPANE CYLINDER WARNING: Make sure that the LP cylinder valve is closed. Close by turning valve clockwise. 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 flames will result in a fire or explosion which can cause serious bodily injury or death, and damage to property. Some LP tanks have differing top collar assembles. (The top collar is the metal protective ring around the valve.) One series of tanks mount with the valve facing front. The other tanks mount with the valve facing away from the fuel scale. These types of tanks are illustrated below. You will need: LP cylinder, a soap and water solution and a rag or brush to apply it. 1) Make sure hose and regulator are in retaining clip. DANGER Failure to use retaining clip could result in gas leaks, fire or explosion which can cause serious bodily injury or death, and damage to property. 2) Turn the LP cylinder so the opening of the valve is either to the front, side or rear of the Weber® gas fireplace. Lift and hook the cylinder onto the fuel gauge. 3) Loosen the cylinder lock wing nut. Swing the cylinder lock down. Tighten the wing nut. To Connect the hose to the cylinder: 4) 5) Remove the plastic dust cover from the valve. Screw the regulator coupling onto the tank valve, clockwise, or to the right. Hand-tighten only. Note: This is a new type of connection. It tightens clockwise and will not allow gas to flow unless the connection is tight. The connection requires tightening by hand only. WARNING: Do not use a wrench to tighten the connection. Using a wrench could damage the regulator coupling and could cause a leak. 6) 7) 8) Mix soap and water. Turn on the cylinder valve. Check for leaks by wetting the fitting with the soap and water solution and watching for bubbles. If bubbles form, or if a bubble grows, there is a leak. If there is a leak, turn off the gas and tighten the fitting. Turn the gas back on and recheck with the soap and water solution. If leak does not stop, contact the Customer Service Representative in your area using the contact information on our web site. Log onto www.weber.com®. Do not use the fireplace. Installation and repair should be done by a qualified service person. The fireplace should be inspected before use and at least annually by a qualified service person. More frequent cleaning may be required as necessary. It is imperative that control compartment, burners and circulating air passageways of the fireplace be kept clean. 9) When leak checking is complete, turn gas supply OFF at the source and rinse connections with water. GAS INSTRUCTIONS CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS 13 (1) 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. (2) WARNING: You should check for gas leaks every time you disconnect and reconnect a gas fitting. Note - All factory-made connections have been thoroughly checked for gas leaks. The burner has been flame-tested. As a safety precaution however, you should recheck all fittings for leaks before using your Weber® Gas Fireplace. Shipping and handling may loosen or damage a gas fitting. WARNING: Perform these leak checks even if your fireplace was dealer or store assembled. You will need: a soap and water solution, and a rag or brush to apply it. 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. To perform leak checks: open cylinder valve by turning the cylinder valve hand-wheel counterclockwise. (3) WARNING: Do not ignite burner when leak checking. Check for leaks by wetting the connections with the soap and water solution and watching for bubbles. If bubbles form or if a bubble grows, there is a leak. Check: 1) Regulator-to-Cylinder connection. WARNING: If there is a leak at connection (1) or (2), retighten the fitting by hand only, and recheck for leaks with soap and water solution. If a leak persists after retightening the fitting, turn OFF the gas. DO NOT OPERATE THE FIREPLACE. Contact the Customer Service Representative in your area using the contact information on our web site. Log onto www.weber.com®. Check: 2) Hose-to-regulator. 3) Hose to bulkhead fitting. 4) Bulkhead fitting. WARNING: If there is a leak at connections (2), (3), or (4), turn OFF the gas. DO NOT OPERATE THE FIREPLACE. Contact the Customer Service Representative in your area using the contact information on our web site. Log onto www.weber. com®. When leak checks are complete, turn gas supply OFF at the source and rinse connections with water. (4) 14 GAS INSTRUCTIONS REFILLING THE LIQUID PROPANE CYLINDER We recommend that you refill the LP cylinder before it is completely empty. Removal of the LP cylinder 1) Make sure hose is secured in retainer clip. 2) Close cylinder valve (turn clockwise). 3) Unscrew regulator coupling by turning counterclockwise, by hand only. 4) Loosen cylinder lock wing nut and turn cylinder lock up out of the way. 5) Lift cylinder off. To refill, take LP cylinder to a “Gas Propane” dealer. (1) (4) WARNING: We recommend that your LP cylinder be filled at an authorized LP gas dealer, by a qualified attendant, who fills the cylinder by weight. IMPROPER FILLING IS DANGEROUS. CAUTION: When transporting the LP cylinder make sure the plastic dust cover is in place over the valve. This will keep dust and dirt from the threaded portion of the valve. (3) CHECKING THE FUEL LEVEL IN YOUR TANK Check the fuel level by viewing the color indicator level line on the side of the tank scale. 1) Empty 2) Medium 3) Full SAFE HANDLING TIPS FOR LIQUID PROPANE GAS CYLINDERS • • • • Liquid Propane (LP) gas is a petroleum product as are gasoline and natural gas. LP gas is a gas at regular temperatures and pressures. Under moderate pressure, inside a cylinder, LP gas is a liquid. As the pressure is released, the liquid readily vaporizes and becomes gas. LP gas has an odor similar to natural gas. You should be aware of this odor. LP gas is heavier than air. Leaking LP gas may collect in low areas and prevent dispersion. To fill, take the LP cylinder to an RV center, or look up “gas-propane” in the phone book for other sources of LP gas. WARNING: We recommend that your LP cylinder be filled at an authorized LP gas dealer, by a qualified attendant, who fills the tank by weight. IMPROPER FILLING IS DANGEROUS. • Air must be removed from a new LP cylinder before the initial filling. Your LP dealer is equipped to do this. • The LP cylinder must be installed, transported and stored in an upright position. LP cylinders should not be dropped or handled roughly. • Never store or transport the LP cylinder where temperatures can reach 125° F (too hot to hold by hand - for example: do not leave the LP cylinder in a car on a hot day). Note - A refill will last about 6-7 hours of burning time at normal use. The fuel scale will indicate the propane supply so you can refill before running out. You do not have to run out before you refill. (2) (1) (2) (3) GAS INSTRUCTIONS • 15 Treat “empty” LP cylinders with the same care as when full. Even when the LP tank is empty of liquid there still may be gas pressure in the cylinder. Always close the cylinder valve before disconnecting. CAUTION: When transporting the LP cylinder make sure the plastic dust cover is in place over the valve. This will keep dust and dirt from the threaded portion of the valve. Do not use a damaged LP cylinder. Dented or rusty LP cylinders or LP cylinders with a damaged valve may be hazardous and should be replaced with a new one immediately. Liquid Propane (LP) Cylinder) • The joint where the hose connects to the LP cylinder must be leak tested each time the LP cylinder is reconnected. For example, test each time the LP cylinder is refilled. • Be sure the regulator is mounted with the small vent hole pointed downward so that it will not collect water. This vent should be free of dirt, grease, bugs etc. • The gas connections supplied with your Weber® gas fireplace have been designed and tested to meet 100% CSA and ANSI requirements. (1) DOT 4BA240 00/05 • WARNING: Replacement LP tanks must match the regulator connection supplied with this fireplace. Liquid Propane Cylinder requirements • Check to be sure cylinders have a D.O.T. certification (1), and date tested (2) is within five years. Your LP gas supplier can do this for you. • All LP tank supply systems must include a collar to protect the cylinder valve. • The LP cylinder must be a 20-lb. size approximately (18 1/4 inches high, 12 1/4 inches in diameter). • The cylinder should be constructed and marked in accordance with the Specifications for LP - Gas Cylinders of the U.S. Department of Transportation (D.O.T.) or the National Standard of Canada, CAN/CSA-B339, Cylinders, Spheres and Tubes or Transportation of Dangerous Goods; and Commission, as applicable. In Canada Liquid Propane Cylinder requirements Note: Your retailer can help you match a replacement tank to your fireplace • The LP cylinder must be constructed and marked in accordance with the specifications for LP gas cylinders, T.C.

Inspect Spider / Insect Screen for possible obstructions. (Blockage of holes.) Clean Spider / Insect Screen. (See Section “Annual Maintenance”) Burner does not light. -or - Burner has a small flickering flame in the HIGH position. The excess flow safety device, which is part of the fireplace to cylinder connection, may have activated. To reset the excess flow safety device turn all burner control knobs and the cylinder valve OFF. Disconnect the regulator from the cylinder. Turn burner control knobs to HIGH. Wait at least 1 minute. Turn burner control knobs OFF. Reconnect the regulator to the cylinder. Turn cylinder valve on slowly. Refer to “Lighting Instructions”. Burner does not light, or flame is low in HIGH position. Is LP fuel low or empty? Refill LP cylinder. Is fuel hose bent or kinked? Straighten fuel hose. Is igniter functioning properly? Replace igniter (see contact info. below). Is the igniter box blocked? Remove obstructions from igniter box (see pg. 10, Step 11 of “Assembly” Section). Is there frost/ice on the outside of the LP cylinder? Turn off burner control knobs and the LP cylinder. Replace with a spare LP cylinder and resume burning. WARNING: The spare or disconnected LP cylinder must be stored outdoors in a well ventilated area out of the reach of children. Flame seems to lose heat when burning in cold weather temperatures 50° F or colder. (The liquid propane in the cylinder turns to vapor too slowly to supply the burners with gas. This is due to the air temperature cooling the LP cylinder which slows the vaporization process.) Burner flame pattern is erratic. Flame Are burner holes blocked? is low when burner is on HIGH. Flames do not ignite all burner holes. Clean burner holes. (See Maintenance Section.) If problems cannot be corrected by using these methods, please contact the Customer Service Representative in your area using the contact information on our web site. Log onto www.weber.com®. 19 MAINTENANCE WEBER® SPIDER / INSECT SCREEN Your Weber® gas fireplace, 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 tube. This blocks the normal gas flow, and can cause the gas to flow back out of the air shutter. This could result in a fire, causing serious damage to your fireplace. Thus, it is imperative that control compartment, burners and air vents of the appliance be kept clean. The burner tube air shutter is fitted with a stainless steel screen (1) to prevent spiders and other insects access to the burner tube through the air shutter openings. We recommend that you inspect the Spider/Insect screen at least once a year. (See Section “Annual Maintenance”.) Also inspect and clean the Spider/Insect screen if any of the following symptoms should ever occur: 1) The smell of gas in conjunction with the burner flame appearing yellow and lazy. 2) Burner does not ignite. DANGER Failure to correct the above mentioned symptoms may result in a fire, which can cause serious bodily injury or death, and cause damage to property. (1) (1) ANNUAL MAINTENANCE Inspection and cleaning of the Spider/Insect screen Brush the spider/insect screen, lightly, with a soft bristle brush (i.e. an old toothbrush). CAUTION: Do not clean the spider/insect screen with hard or sharp tools. Do not dislodge the spider/insect screen or enlarge the screen opening. If the spider/insect screen becomes damaged or cannot be cleaned, call Weber-Stephen Products Customer Service for replacement parts. MAIN BURNER CLEANING PROCEDURE Turn off the gas supply. 1) Remove rain shields. 2) Remove logs and lava rocks. 3) Examine burner holes for blockage. 4) Use a soft bristle brush to remove leaves or other debris. CAUTION: Do not enlarge the burner holes when cleaning. 20 MAINTENANCE MAIN BURNER FLAME PATTERN The Weber® gas fireplace burner has been factory set for the correct air and gas mixture. A correct flame pattern is: • A yellow to light-orange flame An incorrect flame pattern is: • A dark orange flame • Smoke-producing flame If the flames appear to be darker orange throughout the burner, sooting occurs, or smoke is produced; follow the burner and spider screen cleaning procedures. IGNITION SYSTEM If the Ignition System fails to ignite the burner, light manually. If Manual ignition is successful, then check the Ignition System. • Check that both the white (2) and black (3) ignition wires are attached properly. • Check that the igniter button pushes in completely and returns. • Check to see if the igniter is loose in the frame. Tighten if necessary. If the Ignition System still fails to ignite the burner, see Manual Lighting procedure and contact your dealer. (3) (2) Printed in U.S.A.
