THE GS4™ GRILLING SYSTEM
1 E2i™ Electronic Ignition
The E2i™ Electronic Ignition is ensured to ignite
every time. Backed by a generous warranty, rest
assured that you’ll be up-and-grilling the first
time, every time.
2 High Performance Burners
The unique, tapered shape delivers a consistent
gas flow from front to back. This provides
ultimate heat distribution, ensuring that food
grills evenly and consistently anywhere on the
cooking grate.
3 Flavorizer™ Bars
The classic Weber® Flavorizer™ bars are angled
just right to catch drippings that smoke and
sizzle, adding that irresistible smoky flavor that
we all know and love to your food. Any drippings
not vaporised follow the slope and are funneled
away from the burners, down into the grease
management system.
4 Grease Management System
The grease management system helps with
the removal of grease while reducing the risk
of flare-ups. Drippings that are not vaporised
by the Flavorizer™ bars are funneled away
from the burners into the disposable drip tray,
located within the catch pan under the cookbox.
Simply remove the catch pan and replace the
drip tray as needed.
The GS4™ High Performance Grilling System sets a new standard in the world of backyard cuisine, and lands the Genesis®II
and Genesis II® LX series of gas grills in a class of their own. Thisinnovative grilling system is based on over 30 years of
grilling experience, culinary expertise, and most importantly, avidly considering the wants and needs of the people who
matter most – thegrilling community.
Each component of GS4™ was uniquely designed for ease-of-use and to provide an unequaled satisfaction to your backyard
grilling experience. Promising burners that are ensured to ignite every time, smoke infused food that grills evenly and
consistently regardless of where it’s placed on the cooking grate, and hassle free cleanup; you are able to focus on what it’s
is all about – bringing people together around the grill.
The GS4™ grilling system is composed of four key components: The E2i™ Electronic Ignition, HighPerformance Burners,
Flavorizer™ Bars, and Grease Management System. These components ensure that every aspect of your grilling experience
is easy and reliable; from the moment the burners are lit to the general maintenance of your grill. Andtogether, create the
strongest grilling engine within every Genesis® II and Genesis® II LX grill.

tools on the hooks for easy access and organisation of
your backyard workspace. The side table folds down in
models equipped with two and three burners.
B High+ Setting
All burners can be turned up to the highest setting for
an added boost of heat anywhere on the cooking grate.
The High+ setting provides a quicker preheat and
higher grilling temperatures.

of the grill so that you see the true colour of your food.
To save energy, the light will automatically turn o
when the lid is closed.

BBQ sauce or boil potatoes while the main course
grills under the lid.

throwing a dinner party, or a daytime BBQ, you’ll never
have to sacrifice convenience or usability due to the
time of day.

makes the cylinder easy to access and remove; while
also increasing storage space within the cabinet.
J Grill Cabinet

of your essential grilling tools. Everything you need at
your fingertips, when you need it.

Tips and Hints
The Flame-
Direct or Indirect
Use the indirect method for larger cuts of meat that require 20
minutes or more of grilling time, or for foods so delicate that
direct exposure to the heat would dry them out or scorch them,
such as: roasts, bone-in poultry pieces, whole fish, delicate fish
fillets, whole chickens, turkeys, and ribs. Indirect heat can also
be used for finishing thicker foods or bone-in cuts that have been
seared or browned first over direct heat.
With indirect heat, the heat is on both sides of the grill, or o
to one side of the grill. The food sits over the unlit part on the
cooking grate.
INDIRECT HEAT
SETUP
Use the direct method for small, tender pieces of food that take
less than 20 minutes to cook, suchas: hamburgers, steaks, chops,
kebab sticks, boneless chicken pieces, fish fillets, shellfish, and
slicedvegetables.
With direct heat, the fire is right below the food. It sears the
surfaces of the food, developing flavours, texture, and delicious
caramelisation while cooking the food all the way to thecentre.
DIRECT HEAT

Preheat each and every time.
If the cooking grates aren’t hot enough, food will
stick, and you will likely never have a chance of
searing properly or developing those handsome
grill marks. Even if a recipe calls for medium or
low heat, always preheat the grill on the highest
setting first. Open the lid, turn up the heat, close
the lid, and then let the cooking grate heat up for
about ten minutes or until the lid thermometer
reads 260°C (500°F) .
Don't grill on dirty grates.
Tossing food onto the cooking grates before they
have been cleaned is never a good idea. Leftover
“stu” on the grates acts like glue, binding it to
the grates and your new food. To avoid tasting last
night’s dinner on today’s lunch, make sure that
you are grilling on a clean coking grate. Once the
grates are preheated, use a stainless steel bristle
grill brush to make a clean, smooth surface.
Be present in the process.
Before firing up your grill, make sure that
everything you need is within arm’s reach. Don’t
forget your essential grilling tools, already oiled
and seasoned food, glazes or sauces, and clean
cooking platters for cooked food. Having to run
back to your kitchen not only means missing out on
the fun, but could also result in burning your food.
French chefs call this "mise en place" (meaning,
“put in place”). We call it "being present".
Create a little elbow room.
Packing too much food onto the cooking grates
restricts your flexibility. Leave at least one-quarter
of the cooking grates clear, with plenty of space
between each food item, in order to get your
tongs in there and easily move the food around.
Sometimes grilling involves split-second decisions
and the ability to jockey food from one area to
another. So give yourself enough room to operate.
Try not to peak.
The lid on your grill is for more than just keeping
the rain out. Most importantly, it’s for preventing
too much air from getting in, and too much heat
and smoke from getting out. When the lid is closed,
the cooking grates are hotter, the grilling times
are faster, the smoky tastes are stronger, and the
flare-ups are fewer. So put a lid on it!
Only flip once.
What’s better than a juicy steak with a deep sear
and plenty of beautifully caramelised bits? The
key to accomplishing these results is to keep your
food in place. Sometimes we have the tendency
to flip our food before it reaches the desirable
level of colour and flavour. In nearly all cases, you
should turn food just once. If fiddling with it more
than that, you are probably also opening the lid too
much, which causes its own set of problems. So
step back and trust the grill.
Know when to tame the flame.
When grilling, sometimes the most important
thing to know is when to stop. The most reliable
way to test doneness of your food is to invest in an
instant-read thermometer. This slim little gem will
help you pinpoint that critical moment when your
food is at its best.
Don’t be afraid to experiment.
Back in the 1950s, grilling meant one thing: meat
(and only meat) charred over open flames. The
modern day backyard chef doesn’t need a kitchen
in order to prepare a full course meal. Use your
grill to make char-grilled appetisers, sides, and
even desserts. Register your grill to receive special
content that will inspire you along the way. We’d
love to join you on your grilling adventures.

Tips and Hints
SPATULA
Look for a long-handled spatula
designed with a bent (oset) neck
so that the blade is set lower
than the handle. This makes it
easier to lift food o the
cookinggrates.

delivering a safe, durable, and reliable product.
This is Weber’s Voluntary Warranty provided to you
at no extra charge. It contains the information you
will need to have your Weber product repaired in the
unlikely event of a failure or defect.
Pursuant to applicable laws, the customer has
several rights in case the product is defective.
Those rights include supplementary performance or
replacement, abatement of the purchasing price, and
compensation. In the European Union, for example,
this would be a two-year statutory warranty starting
on the date of the handover of the product. These
and other statutory rights remain unaected by this
warranty provision. In fact, this warranty grants
additional rights to the Owner that are independent
from statutory warranty provisions.
Weber’s Voluntary Warranty
Weber warrants, to the purchaser of the Weber
product (or in the case of a gift or promotional
situation, the person for whom it was purchased as
a gift or promotional item), that the Weber product is
free from defects in material and workmanship for
the period(s) of time specified below when assembled
and operated in accordance with the accompanying
Owner’s Manual. (Note: If you lose or misplace your
Weber Owner’s Manual, a replacement is available
online at www.weber.com, or such country-specific
website to which Owner may be redirected.) Under
normal, private single family home or apartment use
and maintenance, Weber agrees within the framework
of this warranty to repair or replace defective parts

direct link between you and Weber in case we need to
contact you.
The above warranty only applies if the Owner takes
reasonable care of the Weber product by following
all assembly instructions, usage instructions,
and preventative maintenance as outlined in the
accompanying Owner’s Manual, unless the Owner can
prove that the defect or failure is independent of non-
compliance with the above mentioned obligations. If
you live in a coastal area, or have your product located
near a pool, maintenance includes regular washing
and rinsing of the exterior surfaces as outlined in the
accompanying Owner’sManual.

by this Warranty, please contact Weber Customer
Service using the contact information on our website

covered by this Warranty. Any conversion of a gas grill

Liquefied petroleum gas, also called LPG or LP gas, is
the flammable, petroleum-based product used to fuel
your grill. It is a gas at moderate temperatures and
pressure when it is not contained. But at moderate
pressure inside a container, such as a cylinder, LPG is
a liquid. As pressure is released from the cylinder, the
liquid readily vaporises and becomes gas.
Safe Handling Tips for LPG Cylinders
• A dented or rusty LPG cylinder may be hazardous and
should be checked by your LP gas supplier. Donot use
a cylinder with a damaged valve.
• Although your LPG cylinder may appear to be empty,
gas may still be present, and the cylinder should be
transported and stored accordingly.
• The LPG cylinder must be installed, transported, and
stored in an upright, secure position. Cylinders should
not be dropped or handled roughly.
• Never store or transport the LPG cylinder where
temperatures can reach 51.7°C (125°F) (the cylinder
will become too hot to hold by hand).
LPG Cylinder Requirements
• Use cylinders with a minimum capacity of 3 kg and a
maximum capacity of 13 kg.
What is a Regulator?
Your gas grill is equipped with a pressure regulator,
which is a device to control and maintain uniform gas
pressure as gas is released from the LPG cylinder.
Regulator and Hose Requirements
• In the United Kingdom, this grill must be fitted with a
regulator complying with BS 3016, having a nominal
output of 37 millibars.
• The length of the hose must not exceed 1,5 metres.
• Avoid kinking the hose.
• Replacement regulator and hose assemblies must be
as specified by Weber-Stephen Products LLC.
m IMPORTANT: We recommend that you replace
the gas hose assembly on your gas grill
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.

What is a Leak Check?
Once the LPG cylinder is properly installed, it is
necessary to perform a leak check. A leak check is a
reliable way to verify that gas is not escaping after you
connect the cylinder. The fitting where the regulator
connects to the cylinder should be tested each time a
cylinder is refilled andreinstalled.
Checking for Gas Leaks
1) Wet fittings at cylinder and regulator 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.
2) Identify your regulator type. Turn gas supply on
by turning cylinder valve anti-clockwise (G) or by
moving regulator lever to the on position(H).
3) If bubbles appear (I) at the regulator-to-cylinder
connection or the regulator hose-to-regulator
connection, there is a leak:
a) Turn gas supply o. DO NOT OPERATE
THE GRILL. 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 o and rinse connections
withwater.
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.
Additional Leak Check Precautions
The fuel system in your grill features other
connections and fittings. These factory-made
connections have been thoroughly checked for gas
leaks and the burners have been flame-tested.
However, it is recommended that a thorough leak
check be performed annually. Instructions for this can
be found online at weber.com.
Disconnect the Regulator from
theCylinder
1) Confirm that the LPG cylinder valve or regulator
lever are fully closed.
2) Disconnect the regulator.
m DANGER: Do not use a flame to check for gas
leaks. Besure 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 grill if there is a
gas leak present.
m DANGER: If you see, smell, or hear the hiss of
gas escaping from the LPG cylinder:
1. Move away from LPG cylinder.
2. Do not attempt to correct the problem
yourself.
3. Call the emergency fire services.
m DANGER: Always close the cylinder valve
before disconnecting the regulator. Do not
attempt to disconnect the gas regulator and
hose assembly or any gas fitting while this
grill is in operation.
m DANGER: Do not store a spare LPG cylinder
under or near this grill. Never fill the cylinder
beyond 80% full. Failure to follow these
statements exactly may result in a fire causing
death or serious injury.

The Very First Time You Grill
Perform an Initial Burn-Off
Heat the grill on the highest setting, with the lid
closed, for at least 20 minutes prior to grilling for the
firsttime.
Every Time You Grill
Meal-to-Meal Maintenance
The Meal-To-Meal Maintenance plan includes the
following simple, yet important, steps that should
always be performed prior to grilling.
Check for Grease
Your grill 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 slide-out grease tray and into a disposable
drip tray that lines the catch pan. This system
should be cleaned each and every time you grill to
preventfires.
1) Confirm that the grill is o and cool.
2) Remove the slide-out grease tray by pulling the tray
out of the cabinet (A). Remove excess grease with a
plastic scraper.
3) Remove the catch pan (B). Check for excessive
amounts of grease in the disposable drip tray that
lines the catch pan. Discard disposable drip pan
when necessary and replace with a new one.
4) Reinstall all components.
Inspect the Hose
Routine inspection of the hose is necessary.
1) Confirm that the grill is o and cool.
2) Check hose for any signs of cracking, abrasions, or
cuts(C). If the hose is found to be damaged in any
way, do not use the grill.
Preheat the Grill
Preheating the grill is critical to successful grilling.
Preheating helps to prevent food from sticking to the
grate and gets the grate hot enough to sear properly.
Italso burns o residue of a previously cooked meal.
1) Open the grill lid.
2) Ignite your grill according to the ignition
instructions in this owner's manual.
3) Close lid.
4) Preheat the grill with all burners on the high+
position for 10 to 15 minutes or until thermometer
registers 260°C (500°F)(D).
Clean the Cooking Grate
After preheating, any bits of food or debris left over
from previous use will be easier to remove. Cleaned
grates will also prevent your next meal from sticking.
1) Brush the grates with a stainless steel bristle grill
brush immediately after preheating (E).
m DANGER: Do not line the slide-out grease tray
or cookbox with aluminum foil.
m DANGER: Check the slide-out grease tray and
catch pan for grease build-up before each use.
Remove excess grease to avoid a grease fire.
m WARNING: Use heat-resistant barbecue mitts
or gloves when operating grill.
m WARNING: Grill brushes should be checked for
loose bristles and excessive wear on a regular
basis. Replace brush if any loose bristles
are found on cooking grates or brush. Weber
recommends purchasing a new stainless steel
bristle grill brush at the beginning of every
spring.
m WARNING: If the hose is found to be damaged
in any way, do not use the grill. Replace using
only Weber authorised replacement hose.
m WARNING: Keep ventilation openings around
tank clear and free of debris.

UNLOCK A LIFETIME OF GUIDANCE
Cleaning and Maintenance
Cleaning the Inside of the Grill
Over time, the performance of your grill can
diminish if it has not been maintained properly.
Low temperatures, uneven heat, and food sticking
to cooking grates are all signs that cleaning and
maintenance are overdue. When your grill is o and
cool, start by cleaning the inside, from the top down.
A thorough cleaning is recommended at least twice a
year. Consistent use may require quarterly cleanings.
Cleaning the Lid
From time to time you may notice “paint-like” flakes
on the inside of the lid. During use, grease and smoke
vapours 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 not clean the lid regularly.
1) Brush the carbonised grease from the inside of the
lid with a stainless steel bristle grill brush (A). To
minimise further build-up, the inside of the lid can
be wiped with a paper towel after grilling while the
grill is still warm (nothot).
Cleaning the Cooking Grates
If you have been cleaning your cooking grates as
recommended, the debris on your grates should be
minimal.
1) With grates installed, brush the debris o your
cooking grate with a stainless steel bristle grill
brush(B).
2) Take the grates out and set aside.
Cleaning the Flavorizer™Bars
Flavorizer™ bars catch drippings that smoke and
sizzle, adding flavor to your food. Any drippings
that are not vaporised by the Flavorizer™ bars are
funneled away from the burners. This helps prevent
flare-ups inside of your grill, and protects the burners
from getting clogged.
1) Scrape the Flavorizer™ bars with a plastic
scraper(C).
2) If necessary, brush the Flavorizer™ bars with a
stainless steel bristle grill brush.
3) Remove Flavorizer™ bars and set aside.
Cleaning the Burners
Two areas on the burners that are key to optimum
performance are the ports (small raised openings
running along the length of the burners) 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 grill brush to
clean the outside of the burners by brushing across
the top of the burner ports (D).
2) When cleaning the burners, avoid damaging the
ignition electrode by carefully brushing around
it(E).
Cleaning the Spider Screens
1) Locate the ends of the burners on the underside of
the control panel where they meet the valves.
2) Clean the spider/insect screens on each of the
burners using a soft bristle brush (F).
m WARNING: Turn your grill o and wait for it to
cool before thoroughly cleaning.
m WARNING: Over time, the development of
rough surfaces can form on the Flavorizer™
bars. Wearing gloves is recommended when
handling. Do not clean Flavorizer™ bars or
cooking grates in a sink, dishwasher, or self-
cleaning oven.
m WARNING: When cleaning the burners, never
use a brush that has already been used to
clean the cooking grates. Never put sharp
objects into the burner port holes.
m CAUTION: Do not place any grill 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 grill: abrasive stainless steel
polishes or paints, cleaners that contain
acid, mineral spirits or xylene, oven cleaner,
abrasive cleansers (kitchen cleansers), or
abrasive cleaning pads.
17
Product Care
Cleaning the Heat Deflectors
Located under the burners, the heat deflectors
distribute heat evenly throughout the cookbox while
cooking. Keeping heat deflectors clean will enhance
the cooking performance of your grill.
1) Scrape the heat deflectors with a plastic
scraper(G).
2) If necessary, brush the heat deflectors with a
stainless steel bristle grill brush.
3) Remove heat deflectors and set aside.
Cleaning the Cookbox
Look inside the cookbox for any grease accumulation
or leftover food particles. Excessive accumulation can
cause a fire.
1) Use a plastic scraper to scrape debris o the sides
and bottom of the grill into the opening in bottom of
the cookbox(H). This opening leads debris into the
slide-out grease tray.
Cleaning the Grease ManagementSystem
The grease management system consists of an
angled slide-out grease tray and a catch pan. These
components were designed to be easily removed,
cleaned, and replaced; an essential step every time
you prepare to grill. Instructions on inspecting the
grease management system can be found in MEAL-TO-
MEAL MAINTENANCE.
Cleaning the Outside of theGrill
The outside of your grill may include stainless steel,
porcelain-enameled, and plastic surfaces. Weber
recommends the following methods based on the
surfacetype.
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 grills. Use a microfiber cloth to
clean in the direction of the grain of the stainless steel.
Donot use paper towels.
Note: Do not risk scratching your stainless steel with
abrasive pastes. Pastes do not clean or polish. They
will change the colour of the metal by removing the top
chromium oxide film coating.
Cleaning Painted, Porcelain-Enameled
Surfaces and PlasticComponents
Clean painted, porcelain-enameled and plastic
components with warm soapy water, and paper towels
or cloth. After wiping down the surfaces, rinse and dry
thoroughly.
Cleaning the Outside of Grills that are in
Unique Environments
If your grill is subject to a particularly harsh
environment, you will want to clean the outside more
often. Acid rain, pool chemicals, and salt water can
cause surface rusting to appear. Wipe down the
outside of your grill with warm soapy water. Follow
up with a rinse and thorough drying. Additionally, you
may want to apply a stainless steel cleaner weekly to
prevent surface rust.
GRILLBRUSH
A must-use before you even dream
of grilling. A quick once-over on hot
grates prevents the charred remains
of meals past from sticking to
your meals present.

the Flavorizer™ bar.
7) If the burner does not ignite within 4 seconds,
turn burner control knob to the o
position and
wait five minutes to allow the gas to clear before
attempting to light the burner again. If repeated
attempts fail, follow the gas flow troubleshooting
instructions on the next page.

2) Check that the side burner control knob is in the
o position. Check by pushing in and turning knob
clockwise. Also check that all main burner control
knobs are in the o
position.
Note: It is important that all burner control knobs
are in the o
position before turning on the LPG
cylinder.
3) Turn gas supply on by turning cylinder valve
anti-clockwise or by moving regulator lever to the
onposition depending on your regulator/cylinder
connection.
4) Put match in the matchstick holder and strike
match. (Matchstick holder is located under right
side table.) Hold lit match by the side burner(C).
5) Pushthe side burner control knob in and slowly
turn it anti-clockwise toward the ignite
position
until you hear ticking. Once ticking starts, hold
the knob in that position for 1-2 seconds and then
slowly continue turning anti-clockwise. Theburner
should ignite at the high position.
6) Check that the side burner is lit. The side burner
flame may be dicult to see on a bright sunny day.
7) If the side burner does not ignite within 4 seconds,
turn side burner control knob to the o position
and wait five minutes to allow the gas to clear
before attempting to light the burner again.
If repeated attempts fail, follow the gas flow
troubleshooting instructions on the next page.
8) If the burner ignites, follow the instructions for
“Checking the Components of the Electronic Ignition
System”.

Troubleshooting
Proper Burner Flame Pattern
The burners in your grill were factory set for the
correct air and gas mixture. When the burners
are performing correctly, you will see a specific
flame pattern. The tips may occasionally flicker
yellow (A), with a descending light blue (B) to
dark blue flame (C).
Spider Screens
The combustion air openings of the burners(D)
are fitted with stainless steel screens to
prevent spiders and other insects from spinning
webs and building nests inside the burners.
Additionally, dust and debris can accumulate
on the outside of the spider/insect screen and
obstruct the oxygen flow to the burners.
GAS FLOW
SYMPTOM
• Grill does not reach desired temperature or heatsunevenly.
• One or more of the burners fail to ignite.
• Flame is low when burner is on high position.
• Flames do not run the whole length of the burner.
• Burner flame pattern is erratic.
CAUSE SOLUTION
Some countries have regulators with a “flow limiting
device” that has been activated. Thissafety feature
built into the regulator restricts the gas flow in the
event of a gas leak. You can inadvertently activate this
safety feature without having a gas leak. This typically
occurs when you turn on the gas at the LPG cylinder
and one or more of the control knobs are not in the
o position. It may also occur if you turn on the LPG
cylinder too quickly.
Reset the “flow limiting device” by closing the LPG
cylinder valve and turning all the burner control
knobs to the o
position. Wait five minutes to
allow accumulated gas to dissipate, then ignite
the grill again following the instructions in the
“Operation” section.
The LPG cylinder is low or empty. Refill LPG cylinder.
Fuel hose is bent or kinked. Straighten fuel hose.
Burner ports are dirty. Clean burner ports. Refer to “Cleaning the
BurnerPorts.”
SYMPTOM
• Gas is smelled in conjunction with burner flames that appear yellow andlazy.
CAUSE SOLUTION
Spider screens on the burners are obstructed. Clean spider screens. Refer to “Cleaning the Spider
Screens” in the Product Care section. Also refer to
the illustrations and information in this section about
proper flame pattern and spiderscreens.
SYMPTOM
• The smell of gas and/or a light hissing sound.
CAUSE SOLUTION
The internal rubber seal in the LPG cylinder valve
could be damaged.
Inspect the rubber seal for damage. If damaged,
return LPG cylinder to local retailer.
Checking the Components of the Electronic Ignition System
When turning the control knob you should hear a
ticking sound. If you cannot hear the ticking sound,
check the battery, then check the wires.
Checking the Battery
There are three potential issues with the battery that
supplies the power to your ignition module that need
to be checked:
1) Some batteries have a plastic protective wrap
around them. (Do not confuse this plastic with
the battery label.) Check that this plastic wrap is
removed.
2) Confirm that the battery is installed correctly (E).
3) If the battery is old, replace it with a new battery.
Checking the Wires
1) Make sure the ignition wires are properly attached
to the ignition module. The wire terminals are
colour coded to correspond with the terminals on
the ignition module. The number of wires will vary
per model. Refer to Assembly Manual for details on
correct wire installation.

The cuts, thicknesses, weights, and grilling times above are meant to be guidelines. Factors such as altitude, wind, and outside temperature can aect cooking times.
Two rules of thumb: Grill steaks, fish fillets, boneless chicken pieces, and vegetables using the direct method for the time given on the chart (or to the desired doneness),
turning food once halfway through grilling time. Grill roasts, whole poultry, bone-in poultry pieces, whole fish and thicker cuts using the indirect method for the time given
on the chart (or until an instant-read thermometer registers the desired internal temperature). Cooking times for beef and lamb are to medium doneness unless otherwise
noted. Before carving, let roasts, larger cuts of meat, and thick chops and steaks rest for 5 to 10 minutes after cooking. The internal temperature of the meat will rise by
5to 10 degrees during this time.
