Check your local building codes for the proper method of installation. In the absence of local codes, this
unit should be installed in accordance with the National Fuel Gas Code No. Z223.1-1998 USA or
CAN/CGA-B149.1/.2 Natural Gas/Propane Code (Canada) latest edition or the National Electrical Code
ANSI/NFPA No. 70 or the Canadian Electrical Code CSA C22.1, 1990 or latest version.
- Before installing built-in grills in enclosures, copy all product information such as model number,
serial number and type of grill (e.g. natural gas or LP) and store information in a safe place.
- If the grill is installed by a professional installer or technician, be sure that he shows you where your
gas supply shut-off is located. All gas lines must have a shut-off that is readily and easily accessible.
If you smell gas, check for gas leaks immediately. Check only with a soap and water solution. Never
check for gas leaks with an open flame.
Notice: We strongly recommend professional installation and hookup of the Gas BBQ grill. These
instructions will provide you with the measurements necessary for you or your builder to construct a
masonry structure to house your outdoor gas grill.
IMPORTANT: Gas fittings, regulator, and installer supplied shut-off valves must be easily accessible.
Location
Locate the grill only in a well ventilated area. Never locate the grill in a building, garage, breezeway,
shed or other such enclosed areas without an approved ventilation system. During heavy use, the grill
will produce a lot of smoke. Ensure there is adequate area for it to dissipate.
Clearance
- TO NON-COMBUSTIBLE CONSTRUCTION: A minimum of 8.5" (217mm) clearance from the back
of the grill is needed for the purpose of opening the hood fully. It is desirable to allow at least
2"(50.8mm) side clearance to non-combustible construction above the cooking surface for counter
space. If you wish to use the rotisserie option, the space is essential for motor and skewer clearance.
The grill can be placed directly adjacent to non-combustible construction below the cooking surface.
The grill exhausts combustion products and cooking greases to the back. Never locate the grill
where this exhaust will be difficult to clean.
- CLEARANCE TO COMBUSTIBLE CONSTRUCTION: A Minimum of 24" (609.6mm) from the sides
and a minimum of 24" (609.6mm) from the back must be maintained from the grill above and below
the cooking surface to adjacent vertical combustible construction.
For Built-in Installations
A built-in grill is designed for easy installation into masonry enclosures. For non-combustible applications,
the grill drops into the opening (as shown in cut-out detail drawing - Fig. A) above or below
depending on space, and hangs from its counter top trim. A deck is not required to support it from the
