Built-In Information

• A minimum of 6” (15.2 cm) from the sides,or a minimum of 8” (20.3 cm) from theright side if there is a rotisserie motor anda minimum of 24” (61.0 cm) from the backmust be maintained from the grill abovethe cooking surface to adjacent verticalcombustible construction. The grill is notto be located under overhead unprotectedcombustible construction.

• A minimum of 3” (7.6 cm) clearance fromthe back of the grill with a canopy and aminimum of 6” (15.2 cm) from the back ofthe grill without a canopy to non-combustible construction is required forthe purpose of allowing the lid to openfully and for proper ventilation.

• Note that the grill exhausts combustionproducts and cooking greases to the back.Never locate the grill in a location wherethe exhaust is directed at a window, lessthan 24” (61.0 cm) to combustible materialor any surface that is difficult to clean.

• It is desirable to allow at least 6” sideclearance to non-combustible constructionabove the cooking surface for counterspace. If using the rotisserie option, thespace is essential for motor and skewerclearance. The grill can be placed directlyadjacent to combustible and/or non-combustible construction below thecooking surface.

• When determining a suitable location forthe grill, take into account concerns suchas exposure to wind, proximity to trafficpaths and keeping gas supply lines asshort as possible. Locate the grill only in awell-ventilated area. Never locate the grillin a building, garage, shed or other suchfully enclosed areas. During heavy use, thegrill will produce a lot of smoke. Ensurethere is adequate area for it to dissipate.

T-Series Grills:• When using a rear wall, locate the

electrical service on the right hand side forthe rotisserie motor. The rotisserie motorrequires a 110/120 volt supply. The powersupply cord on the motor is equipped witha 3-prong (grounded) plug for protectionagainst shock hazard. Do not cut orremove the grounding from the plug. Theelectrical service must be equipped with aproperly grounded 3-prong receptacle asrequired by the National Electrical CodeANSI/NFPA 70-latest edition. Installation inCanada must be in accordance with theCanadian Electrical Code, CSA 22.1 andlocal codes.

E-Series Grills:• When using a rear wall, locate a 110/120

volt supply outlet on the bottom left handside beneath the solid bottom support at amaximum distance of 2 feet. Thisconnection is to be used for the ignitionsystem and canopy lights. In addition, therotisserie motor requires a separate110/120 volt supply to be located on theright hand side of the grill. Both the powersupply cords for the ignition/lights and therotisserie motor are equipped with a 3-prong (grounded) plug for protectionagainst shock hazard. Do not cut orremove the grounding from the plug. Theelectrical service must be equipped with aproperly grounded 3-prong receptacle asrequired by the National Electrical CodeANSI/NFPA 70-latest edition. Installation inCanada must be in accordance with theCanadian Electrical Code, CSA 22.1 andlocal codes.

IMPORTANT: Gas fittings, regulator, andinstaller supplied shut-off valve must beeasily accessible.

A dented or rusty LP/Propane tank may behazardous and should be checked by yourtank supplier. Never use a cylinder with adamaged valve. All tanks should be equippedwith an OPD (overfilling protectiondevice). This is a DOT requirement for alltanks purchased after October 1, 1998 andwill ensure that the tank is not overfilled. TheLP/Propane tank should be a standard 5-gal,20 lb. gas cylinder tank approximately 12” indiameter and 18” high which must beconstructed and marked in accordance withthe Specifications for LP/Propane GasCylinders of the U.S. Department ofTransportation (D.O.T.) or the NationalStandard of Canada, CAN/CSA-B339,Cylinders, Spheres and Tubes forTransportation of Dangerous Goods; andCommission. The cylinder connection devicemust be compatible with the Type 1, QCC-1connector on the outdoor cooking appliance.

All LP/Propane tanks must be mounted in avertical position for proper ventilation. Thecylinder must be provided with a shut-offvalve terminating in an LP/Propane gassupply cylinder valve outlet specified. Thecylinder supply system must be arranged forvapor withdrawal and provided with a listedoverfilling prevention device. If the applianceis stored indoors the cylinder must bedisconnected and removed from theappliance. Each tank is supplied with a dustcap. Place dust cap on cylinder valve outletwhenever the cylinder is not in use. Onlyinstall the type of dust cap on the cylinder

valve outlet that is provided with the cylindervalve. Other types of caps or plugs may resultin leakage of propane. The cylinder usedmust include a collar to protect the cylindervalve. Cylinders must be stored outdoors in awell-vented area out of the reach of children.

BUILT-IN INSTALLATIONSBuilt-in installations must be plumbed using afixed/hard line if the unit is going to beoperated at a distance exceeding 3 feet (0.91meters) from the fuel supply per ANSI Z21.24CSA. Also, in a built-in construction where anLP/Propane tank is going to be used, thereMUST be some type of support (braces, cut-out, etc.) to prevent tank from moving withinthe installation. The support must also allowthe LP/Propane tank to withstand a horizontaltipping force equal to the weight of the tankwithout tipping over. The tank can not tipover or deflect more than 1.00 inch when a 38lb. horizontal force is applied to a 20 lb.LP/Propane tank.

Leak Testing

Although all gas connections on the grill areleak tested at the factory prior to shipment,a complete gas tightness check must beperformed at the installation due to possiblemishandling in shipment or excessivepressure unknowingly being applied to theunit. Periodically check the whole system forleaks, or immediately check if the smell ofgas is detected.

• Do not smoke while leak testing.

• Extinguish all flames.

• Never leak test with an open flame

WARNING

Burner Adjustment

Each burner is tested and adjusted at thefactory prior to shipment; however, variationsin the local gas supply may make it necessaryto adjust the burners. The flames of theburners (except the rotisserie infrared burner)should be visually checked and comparedwith the following illustrations.

Flames should be blue and stable with noyellow tips, excessive noise or lifting. If any ofthese conditions exist, check if the air shutteror burner ports are blocked by dirt, debris,spider webs, etc. With a proper flame height,adjust the air shutter to obtain a blue flamewith no yellow tipping that sits on the burnerat the burner ports. The air shutter is lockedin place by a set screw which must beloosened prior to lighting the burner foradjustments.

• Specified clearances maintained tocombustible materials.

• Pressure regulator connected and set.

• Manual shut-off valve installed andaccessible.

• Check air shutter adjustment - sharp blueflame, no yellow tipping.

• Check for gas leaks (odors) at all gasconnections.

• Each burner lights satisfactorily, individuallyor with adjacent burners lit.

Any adjustments necessary that are theresult of the installer not followinginstructions will be responsibility of theinstaller, dealer or the end user of theproduct.

Final Preparation• Some stainless steel parts may have a

plastic protective wrap which must bepeeled off. The interior should be washedthoroughly with hot, soapy water toremove film residues and any dust ordebris before being used, then rinsed andwiped dry. Solutions stronger than soapand water are rarely needed.

• All stainless steel body parts should bewiped with hot, soapy water and with aliquid cleaner designed for this material. If buildup occurs, do not use steel wool,abrasive cloths, cleansers, or powders!

If it is necessary to scrape stainless steel toremove encrusted materials, soak with hot,wet cloths to loosen the material, then usea wool or nylon scraper. Do not use ametal knife, spatula, or any other materialtool to scrape stainless steel! Scratches arealmost impossible to remove.
