Thank you for purchasing a WEBER product. Weber-Stephen Products
LLC, 1415 S. Roselle Road, Palatine, Illinois 60067 (“WEBER”) prides
itself on 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
unaffected 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
weber.com, or such country-specific website to which you 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 within the applicable
time periods, limitations, and exclusions listed below. TO THE EXTENT
ALLOWABLE BY APPLICABLE LAW, THIS WARRANTY IS EXTENDED
ONLY TO THE ORIGINAL PURCHASER AND IS NOT TRANSFERABLE
TO SUBSEQUENT OWNERS, EXCEPT IN THE CASE OF GIFTS AND
PROMOTIONAL ITEMS AS NOTED ABOVE.
OWNER’S RESPONSIBILITIES UNDER THIS WARRANTY
To ensure trouble-free warranty coverage, it is important (but it is not
required) that you register your WEBER product online at weber.com,
or such country-specific website to which you may be redirected.
Please also retain your original sales receipt and/or invoice.
Registering your WEBER product confirms your warranty coverage
and provides a 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’s Manual.
WARRANTY HANDLING / EXCLUSION OF WARRANTY
If you believe that you have a part which is covered by this
warranty, please contact WEBER Customer Service using the
contact information on our website (weber.com, or such country-
specific website to which you may be redirected). WEBER will, upon
investigation, repair or replace (at its option) a defective part that
is covered by this warranty. In the event that repair or replacement
are not possible, WEBER may choose (at its option) to replace the
barbecue in question with a new barbecue of equal or greater value.
WEBER may ask you to return parts for inspection, shipping charges
to be pre-paid.
This warranty lapses if there is damage, deterioration, discolouration,
and/or rust for which WEBER is not responsible caused by:
• Abuse, misuse, alteration, modification, misapplication, vandalism,
neglect, improper assembly or installation, or failure to properly
perform normal and routine maintenance;
• Insects and rodents;
• Exposure to salt air and/or chlorine sources such as swimming
pools and hot tubs/spas;
• Severe weather conditions such as hail, hurricanes, earthquakes,
tsunamis or surges, tornadoes or severe storms.
The use and/or installation of parts on your WEBER product that are
not genuine WEBER parts will void this warranty, and any damage
that results is not covered by this warranty.

10 years, rust through/burn through
Stainless steel components:
5 years, rust through/burn through
ONE-TOUCH cleaning system:

MANDATORY LIABILITY AS PRESCRIBED BY STATUTE.
NO WARRANTIES SHALL APPLY AFTER THE APPLICABLE PERIODS
OF THIS WARRANTY. NO OTHER WARRANTIES GIVEN BY ANY
PERSON, INCLUDING A DEALER OR RETAILER, WITH RESPECT TO

IN NO EVENT UNDER THIS VOLUNTARY WARRANTY SHALL

BARBECUES USED IN COMMERCIAL, COMMUNAL OR MULTI-UNIT
SETTINGS SUCH AS RESTAURANTS, HOTELS, RESORTS, OR RENTAL
PROPERTIES.
WEBER MAY FROM TIME TO TIME CHANGE THE DESIGN OF ITS
PRODUCTS. NOTHING CONTAINED IN THIS WARRANTY SHALL
BE CONSTRUED AS OBLIGATING WEBER TO INCORPORATE SUCH
DESIGN CHANGES INTO PREVIOUSLY MANUFACTURED PRODUCTS,
NOR SHALL SUCH CHANGES BE CONSTRUED AS AN ADMISSION
THAT PREVIOUS DESIGNS WERE DEFECTIVE.

Manual for additional contact information.
