Yes, every Summit FS38 gas grill comes equipped with rotisserie motor, forks and spit for slow-roasting. The heavy-duty, integrated rotisserie fits multiple chickens and large cuts of meat such as prime rib and leg of lamb. As food rotates under the top-down infrared broiler, it crisps and browns evenly while locking in juices. The tuck-away motor folds down when not in use to free up side table space.
Where do I store the rotisserie motor, forks and spit in my grill?
Rotisserie Motor Storage- Before retracting rotisserie back into the side table, unplug the power cord and carefully place plug/power cord into the storage area of the retractable rotisserie assembly (E). Using your index finger, disengage retractable rotisserie panel. Push panel down until it snaps securely in place.
Rotisserie Fork Storage- Remove forks from rotisserie shaft. Store rotisserie forks by placing them on the hooks located within the grill cabinet (F).
Rotisserie Shaft Storage - Store the rotisserie shaft on the hooks on the back of the grill (G).
The smoker box can be used with wood chips. Place wood chips in the smoker box and close the lid. Place the smoker box on top of the main cooking grate, aligned over one of burners. Ignite the grill and preheat for 15 minutes with the main burners on high. Once the smoker box begins emitting smoke, adjust the burners to your desired setting, keeping the burner under the smoker box on low.
Remember:
• Always use heat-resistant barbecue mitts or gloves when operating your grill.
• Always grill with the lid closed to allow the smoke to fully penetrate the food.
• When you're finished smoking, turn burners off and close the grill lid until the wood chips have extinguished.
• Remove smoker box from the grill if not in use.
• Always follow your grill/smoker owner’s guide for specific setup and usage instructions.
• Weber brand wood chips are available in several varieties to find the smoke flavor that best suits your taste.
The tank scale indicates the amount of fuel in a standard 20-pound (9.07 kg) tank once the tank is hung from the scale. The fuel level is checked by viewing the indicator line located on the scale inside of the cabinet. Some models include an indicator on the front of the grill. The indicator points to a full tank (A), and gradually moves to indicate when the tank is empty (B) and needs to be removed to replace or refill.

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. See the grill Owner’s Guide for more details on cleaning your grill.
