Getting Started
Important Information about LP Gas & Gas Connections
What Is LP Gas?
Liquefied petroleum gas, also called LP, LP gas, liquid
propane, or simply propane or butane, 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 tank, LP is a liquid. As pressure is
A
released from the tank, the liquid readily vaporizes and
becomes gas.
B
Safe Handling Tips For LP Tanks
· A dented or rusty liquid propane tank may be hazardous and should be checked by your liquid propane supplier. Do not use a liquid propane tank with a damaged valve.
· Although your liquid propane tank may appear to be empty, gas may still be present, and the tank should be transported and stored accordingly.
· The LP tank must be installed, transported, and stored in an upright, secure position. LP tanks should not be dropped or handled roughly.
· Never store or transport the LP tank where temperatures can reach 125° F (51.7° C) (the tank will become too hot to hold by hand).
· Place dust cap on cylinder valve outlet whenever the cylinder is not in use. Only install the type of dust cap on the cylinder valve outlet that is provided with the cylinder valve. Other types of caps or plugs may result in leakage of propane.
LP Tank Requirements
· The tank must be approximately 18¼ inches (46.35 cm) high and 12¼ inches (31.1 cm) in diameter with a marked 20 pound (9.07 kg) LPG capacity or 47.6 pound (21.6 kg) water capacity as stated by the manufacturer. Other tanks may be acceptable provided they are compatible with the grill retention means (tank scale).
· The tank used must 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 Canadian Standard for Cylinders, Spheres and Tubes for Transportation of Dangerous Goods and Commission, CAN/CSA-B339, as applicable.
· Tanks must be provided with a listed OPD (Overfilling Prevention Device) and a Type 1 (CGA 791) tank connection. The tank connection must be compatible with the grill connection.
· The tank must include a collar to protect the tank valve.
· Tanks must have a D.O.T. certification (A), and a testing date (B) that is within five years of current use.
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 LP tank.
Regulator Requirements
· The regulator and hose assembly supplied with this grill must be used. This regulator has a flow limiting device built into the unit that will restrict the flow of gas in the event that a leak is detected.
· Replacement regulator and hose assemblies must be as specified by Weber-Stephen Products LLC (UL-listed Type 1 (CGA 791) tank connection device as described in the latest edition of ANSI Z21.81).

Getting Started
What is a Leak Check?
Once the LP tank is properly installed, it is necessary
G
to perform a leak check. A leak check is a reliable way
to verify that gas is not escaping after you connect the
tank. The fuel system in your grill features factory-
made connections that have been thoroughly checked
for gas leaks and the burners have been flame-tested.
WEBER recommends performing a thorough leak
check after assembly, as well as annually. The
following fittings should be tested:
· Where the regulator connects to the tank.
J
· Where the gas hose connects to the bulkhead.
· Where the bulkhead connects to the corrugated gas line.
Checking for Gas Leaks
1) Wet fittings (G) 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
H
hardware store.
2) Slowly open gas supply by turning tank valve counterclockwise while checking for bubbles.
3) If bubbles appear there is a leak:
a) If the leak is at the cylinder (H), turn off the gas. DO NOT OPERATE THE GRILL. Disconnect the tank and return the tank to your local retailer.
b) If the leak is at the regulator (I), turn off the gas. NEVER ATTEMPT TO TIGHTEN THE REGULATOR WITH TANK VALVE OPEN. DO NOT OPERATE THE GRILL. Contact the Customer Service Representative in your area using the contact information on our website.
c) If the leak is at any fittings indicated in
illustration (J), re-tighten fitting with a wrench
and recheck for leaks with soap and water
solution. If leak persists, turn off the gas. DO NOT
OPERATE THE GRILL.
I
K
d) If the leak is at any fittings indicated in
illustration (K), turn off the gas. DO NOT
OPERATE THE GRILL.
If a leak is present, 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 off at the tank and rinse connections with water.
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.
m DANGER: Do not use a flame to check for gas leaks. Be sure 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 liquid propane tank:
1) Move away from liquid propane tank.
2) Do not attempt to correct the problem yourself.
3) Call your fire department.
m DANGER: Always close the tank 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 LP tank under or near this grill. Never fill the tank beyond 80% full. Failure to follow these statements exactly may result in a fire causing death or serious injury.

Refilling or Replacing an LP Tank
L
How Much Fuel is in the Tank?
The tank scale indicates the amount of fuel in a
M
standard 20 pound (9.07 kg) tank once the tank is hung
from the scale. The fuel level is checked by viewing
the red level indicator line, located on scale. When the
indicator line is at the top, the tank is full (L). When it
is at the bottom, the tank is empty (M) and needs to be
removed to replace or refill.
Removal of the LP Tank
1) Confirm that the tank valve is fully closed. Close by turning valve clockwise (N).
2) Unscrew regulator coupling by turning counterclockwise by hand (O).
3) Loosen tank hand nut and turn tank lock up out of
the way.
N
4) Lift tank off tank scale.
Additional Leak Check Precautions
The following fittings should be tested for gas leaks each time a tank is refilled and reinstalled:
· Where the regulator connects to the tank (H) and at the regulator (I).
Follow the instructions for "Checking for Gas Leaks".
Notification on the WEBER CONNECT Module
The WEBER CONNECT module will display a fuel level notification when an LP tank is installed to your fuel scale. Refer to "Using the WEBER CONNECT Module" section in this manual.

Getting Started
Operation
The Very First Time You Grill
A
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 first time.
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
B
drip tray that lines the catch pan. This system should be
cleaned each and every time you grill to prevent fires.
1. Confirm that the grill is off 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 pan 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 off 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.
C
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. It also burns off 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 start/high
position for 15 minutes (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).
10
D
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 caution when removing catch pan and disposing of hot grease.
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 authorized replacement hose.
m WARNING: Keep ventilation openings around tank clear and free of debris.
Operation
Igniting the Grill
Using the Electronic Ignition System to Ignite the Grill
Each control knob operates an individual burner, and each burner ignites independently. Ignite the burners starting from left to right. All burners should be lit for preheating, however, all burners do not have to be lit while grilling.
1) Open the grill lid (A).
2) Check that all burner control knobs are in the off position. Check by pushing in and turning knobs
clockwise (B). Note: It is important that all burner control knobs are in the off position before turning on the LP tank. If they are not, the flow limiting device built into the regulator will activate, limiting the flow of gas from the LP tank.
3) Turn the LP tank on by slowly turning the tank valve counterclockwise; wait 60 seconds (C). Note: It is important that the LP tank is turned on slowly. If it is opened too quickly, the flow limiting device built into the regulator will activate, limiting the flow of gas from the LP tank.
4) Begin with the burner furthest to the left. Push the burner control knob in and turn it counterclockwise to the start/high position (D).
5) Push and hold the electronic ignition button (E).
You will hear it ticking.
A
6) Check that the burner is lit by looking through the

Operation
Using the Sear Zone
Searing is a direct grilling technique used on meats, such as steak, poultry parts, fish and chops. Searing browns the surface of the food at a high temperature. By searing both sides of the meat, you caramelize the food surface, creating a more desirable flavor.
Ignition of the sear burner is the same as ignition of a main burner, each burner ignites independently.
1) Open the lid and ignite all of the burners, including the sear burner . Refer to USING THE ELECTRONIC IGNITION SYSTEM TO IGNITE THE GRILL.
2) Preheat the grill with the lid closed and with all burners on the start/high position for 15 minutes.
3) After preheating, leave the sear burner control
knob and the adjacent burner control knobs in
the start/high position (A). The sear burner works
in tandem with adjacent burners (B). The remaining
burner(s) can be turned to off or low.
B
4) Place meat directly over the sear zone and close lid.
Sear each side anywhere from one to four minutes
(C), depending on the type and thickness of meat.
Once searing is complete, the meat can be moved
to moderate heat over and cooked to your desired
doneness.
Note: Always cook with the lid closed to achieve maximum
1
heat and to avoid flare-ups.
As you gain experience using the sear zone we encourage you to experiment with different searing times to find the results that work best for your taste.
To Extinguish Burners
1) Push each burner control knob in and then turn clockwise all the way to the off position.
2) Turn gas supply off.

Igniting the Side Burner
Using the Electronic Ignition to Ignite the Side Burner
If one or more of the main burners on your grill are already lit and you would like to ignite the side burner, skip to step 3. If none of the main burners are lit and you are only using the side burner, start with step 1.
1) Check that the side burner control knob is in the off position. Check by pushing in and turning knob clockwise (A). Also check that all main burner control knobs are in the off position. Note: It is important that all burner control knobs are in the off position before turning on the LP tank. If they are not, the flow limiting device built into the regulator will activate, limiting the flow of gas from the LP tank.
2) Turn the LP tank on by slowly turning the tank valve
counterclockwise; wait 60 seconds.
Note: It is important that the LP tank is turned on

MEDIUM
DIRECT HEAT SETUP
Use the direct method for small, tender pieces of food that take less than 20 minutes to cook, such as: hamburgers, steaks, chops, kabobs, boneless chicken pieces, fish fillets, shellfish, and sliced vegetables. With direct heat, the fire is right below the food. It sears the surfaces of the food, developing flavors, texture, and delicious caramelization while cooking the food all the way to the center.
OFF
INDIRECT HEAT SETUP
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 off to one side of the grill. The food sits over the unlit part on the cooking grate.

Tips and Hints
Grilling Do's and Don'ts
Optimize Grill Space
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 15 minutes on high.
Try not to peek.
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!
Don't grill on dirty grates.
Only flip once.
Tossing food onto the cooking grates before they have been cleaned is never a good idea. Leftover "stuff" 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 you are grilling on a clean cooking 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".
What's better than a juicy steak with a deep sear and plenty of beautifully caramelized 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 color and flavor. 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.
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.
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 chargrilled appetizers, 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.
Using the TUCK-AWAY Warming Rack
Use the warming rack up to keep food warm or fold it down when not in use. To fold the warming rack down, lift rack slightly and rotate downward. Use heat-resistant mitts or gloves when adjusting rack.

Product Care
Cleaning and Maintenance
A
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 off 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
vapors 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 carbonized grease from the inside of the
B
lid with a stainless steel bristle grill brush (A). To
minimize further build-up, the inside of the lid can
be wiped with a paper towel after grilling while the
grill is still warm (not hot).
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 off 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 vaporized by the FLAVORIZER BARS are funneled away from the burners. This helps prevent
C
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 off 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 selfcleaning 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.
Cleaning the Heat Deflectors
Located under the burners, the heat deflectors
G
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 off 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 Management System H
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-TOMEAL MAINTENANCE.
Cleaning the Outside of the Grill
The outside of your grill may include stainless steel, porcelain-enameled, and plastic surfaces. WEBER recommends the following methods based on the surface type.
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. Do not use paper towels.
Note: Do not risk scratching your stainless steel with abrasive pastes. Pastes do not clean or polish. They will change the color of the metal by removing the top chromium oxide film coating.
Cleaning Painted, Porcelain-Enameled Surfaces and Plastic Components
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.
Cleaning the Inside of the Cabinet
Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe the interior of the cabinet. Be careful not to pull any of the wire connections when cleaning around the electronic components.
CAUTION: NEVER SPRAY THE GRILL WITH A STEADY WATER STREAM SUCH AS FROM A GARDEN HOSE OR POWER WASHER. ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS COULD BECOME DAMAGED.

WEBER CONNECT IS EXPERIENCING CONNECTIVITY ISSUES
SYMPTOM
· Bluetooth® is having trouble maintaining connectivity or pairing with a smart device.
CAUSE
SOLUTION
Bluetooth® is a short range signal only.
When the WEBER CONNECT module is on, it is ready to pair. Make sure that Bluetooth® on the smart device is turned on and that the device is near the grill.
Bluetooth® has already paired to another smart device.
If the Bluetooth® indicator light is on but is not flashing, it means that it is already paired to a smart device. Turn off Bluetooth® on any smart device that you do not wish to have paired to the grill.
SYMPTOM
· Wi-Fi is having trouble maintaining connectivity with a Wi-Fi network.
CAUSE
SOLUTION
Grill is out of range of the Wi-Fi network signal.
In order to successfully connect your smart device to your local Wi-Fi network, your grill must be within range of your Wi-Fi router. If your attempts to connect have been unsuccessful, try moving the grill within range of the Wi-Fi router or adding a signal extender for a stronger signal.
ERROR CODE APPEARS ON DISPLAY
SYMPTOM
· During start-up or barbecuing, an error code appears on the digital display.
CAUSE
SOLUTION
The WEBER CONNECT module is a device that is sensitive to certain external factors. Variations in power supply or radio frequency may affect operation.

Auxiliary Power Input
Connecting an External Power Bank
As an alternative to using six D alkaline batteries to power the WEBER CONNECT Module during your cook, you can instead connect an external rechargable power bank, sold sperately.
The power bank should have a minimum capacity of
10,000 mA hours with a 5 volt micro USB connector.
The shelf inside the grill cabinet can accept a power bank with a maximum dimension of 4" wide x 7" deep
A
x 1.25" high.
To use an external power bank, it is not necessary to remove the alkaline batteries from the battery pack. Instead, after simply connecting the power bank to the control board with the micro USB connector, the WEBER CONNECT module will draw power directly from the power bank.
1) Open the grill cabinet.
2) Place the power bank on the small shelf at the bottom of the side panel, adjacent to the battery pack (A).
3) Connect the micro USB cable to the bottom of the control board (B).
4) Turn the power bank on.
Refer to the manufacturer's operating guide for instructions on fully charching the power bank.
Additional information regarding the use of a power bank:
· Do not plug the power bank into an exterior outlet while it is connected to the grill.
· Disconnect the power bank from the grill and bring it indoors after use.
· The power bank will not supply power to the burner igniters. Refer to "Checking the Components of the Electronic Ignition System".
· The micro USB connector on the control board is not for data transmission.
· Do not store the power bank outside.
· Fully recharge the power bank before every use.
· Use only if outdoor temperature is between 10°F (-12°C) to 100°F (38°C) unless the power bank is rated for higher and/or lower temperature conditions. Follow the manufacturer's operating guidelines..

The cuts, thicknesses, weights, and grilling times above are meant to be guidelines. Factors such as altitude, wind, and outside temperature can affect 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 use the USDA's definition of 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 5 to 10 degrees during this time.
