5. Setup and Installation

Follow these steps to install your new control knobs:

1. Ensure Safety: Before beginning, ensure your grill is completely off and the gas supply is turned off at the propane tank or natural gas line. Allow the grill to cool down if it has been in use.
2. Remove Old Knobs: Gently pull the existing control knobs straight off the valve stems. They are typically held in place by friction.
3. Inspect Valve Stems: Check the valve stems for any debris or damage. Clean them if necessary. The valve stems should be D-shaped to match the opening in the new knobs.
4. Install New Knobs: Align the D-shaped opening on the back of the new Weber control knob with the D-shaped valve stem on your grill. Push the knob firmly onto the stem until it is seated securely. Ensure the red indicator line on the knob points to the 'OFF' position when the valve is closed.
5. Test Functionality: Once all knobs are installed, turn on the gas supply. Carefully test each knob by pushing it in and turning it to the 'IGNITE' position to ensure it engages correctly and the burner ignites. Then turn it back to 'OFF'.

6. Operating Instructions

The control knobs regulate the gas flow to the grill burners. To operate:

• Ignition: Push the knob in and turn it to the 'IGNITE' position (usually indicated by a lightning bolt or flame symbol) to light the corresponding burner.
• Adjust Flame: Once lit, adjust the flame intensity by turning the knob between the 'HIGH' and 'LOW' settings.
• Turn Off: To turn off a burner, push the knob in and rotate it to the 'OFF' position.

7. Maintenance

To keep your control knobs in good condition:

• Cleaning: Clean the knobs regularly with a soft cloth and mild soap and water. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the finish.
• Inspection: Periodically check the knobs for any signs of wear, cracking, or looseness. Replace them if they are damaged or no longer fit securely.

8. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your control knobs:

• Knob is Loose: Ensure the knob is fully pushed onto the D-shaped valve stem. If it continues to be loose, the internal mechanism may be worn, and replacement is recommended.
• Knob Does Not Turn: Do not force the knob. Ensure it is pushed in completely before attempting to turn. If the issue persists, the valve stem or internal valve mechanism may be obstructed or damaged. Consult a qualified technician or Weber support.
