1. Introduction
This manual provides essential information for the installation, operation, and maintenance of your Weber 67692 Summit 660/670 Control Knob Kit. This genuine Weber replacement set is designed for Summit 660/670 series gas grills manufactured from 2012 to the present. Please read these instructions carefully before proceeding with installation or use to ensure proper function and longevity of your new control knobs.
2. Product Contents
The Weber 67692 Summit 660/670 Control Knob Kit includes the following components:
- Six (6) Main burner lighted control knobs
- One (1) Infrared (IR) burner control knob
- One (1) Smoker burner control knob
- One (1) Sear burner control knob
This image displays the complete set of replacement control knobs. The larger knobs are for the main burners, while the smaller ones are for the infrared, smoker, and sear burners, each identifiable by their unique symbols.
3. Setup and Installation
Replacing your grill's control knobs is a straightforward process. Follow these steps for proper installation:
- Safety First: Ensure your grill is completely cool and all gas supply lines are turned off and disconnected from the grill before beginning any installation or maintenance.
- Remove Old Knobs: Gently pull the existing control knobs straight off their respective valve stems. They should slide off with moderate force. Avoid twisting or prying, which could damage the valve stems.
- Identify New Knobs: Match each new knob to its corresponding burner function (main, IR, smoker, sear) based on the symbols on the knob face.
- Install New Knobs: Align the D-shaped opening on the back of the new knob with the D-shaped valve stem. Push the knob firmly onto the stem until it is seated securely. Ensure the knob is fully engaged and does not wobble.
- Test Functionality: Once all knobs are installed, reconnect the gas supply and carefully test each knob's ability to turn and engage the burner. Do not ignite the grill during this test unless you are ready to operate it.
These replacement parts are designed for easy installation and should perfectly match the original components of your Weber Summit grill.
4. Operating Instructions
The control knobs allow you to regulate the gas flow to your grill's burners. Each knob is designed for a specific burner type:
- Main Burner Knobs: Used to control the primary cooking burners. Turn to the 'Ignite' position to light, then adjust to desired heat setting (low to high).
- Infrared (IR) Burner Knob: Controls the infrared burner, typically used for searing.
- Smoker Burner Knob: Activates the dedicated smoker burner for low-and-slow cooking.
- Sear Burner Knob: Controls the high-heat sear station burner.
Always refer to your grill's main instruction manual for detailed ignition procedures and safe operating practices.
5. Maintenance
Proper maintenance will help extend the life of your control knobs:
- Cleaning: Wipe the knobs regularly with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn grime, use a mild soap solution. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the finish or the symbols on the knobs.
- Inspection: Periodically inspect the knobs for any signs of wear, cracking, or looseness. Ensure they turn smoothly and securely engage the valve stems.
- Storage: If storing your grill for an extended period, ensure the knobs are clean and dry.
While these are genuine replacement parts, some users have noted that plastic components, especially in outdoor environments, may require replacement over time due to wear. Regular inspection can help identify when replacement might be necessary.
6. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your new control knobs, consider the following:
- Knob is Loose or Wobbly: Ensure the knob is fully pushed onto the D-shaped valve stem. If it continues to be loose, the internal D-shaped opening of the knob may be worn.
- Knob Does Not Turn Smoothly: Check for any debris or obstruction around the base of the knob or on the valve stem. Ensure the knob is correctly aligned with the stem.
- Knob Breaks or Cracks: This typically indicates material fatigue or excessive force during operation. The knob will need to be replaced.
If problems persist after troubleshooting, it may indicate an issue with the grill's internal valve mechanism, which should be inspected by a qualified technician.
