WARNING

FOR YOUR SAFETY

If not installed, operated and maintained in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions, this product could expose you to substances in fuel or fuel combustion which can cause death or serious illness and which are known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.

For example, benzene is a chemical which is part of the gas supplied to the cooking product. It is consumed in the flame during combustion.

However, exposure to a small amount of benzene is possible if a gas leak occurs. Formaldehyde and soot are by-products of incomplete combustion.

Properly adjusted burners with a bluish rather than yellow flame minimize incomplete combustion.

Built-In Information

• A minimum of 6” (15.2 cm) from the sides, or a minimum of 8” (20.3 cm) from the right side if there is a rotisserie motor and a minimum of 24” (61.0 cm) from the back must be maintained from the grill above the cooking surface to adjacent vertical

combustible construction. The grill is not to be located under overhead unprotected combustible construction.

• A minimum of 3” (7.6 cm) clearance from the back of the grill with a canopy and a minimum of 6” (15.2 cm) from the back of the grill without a canopy to non-

combustible construction is required for the purpose of allowing the lid to open fully and for proper ventilation.

• Note that the grill exhausts combustion products and cooking greases to the back.

Never locate the grill in a location where the exhaust is directed at a window, less than 24” (61.0 cm) to combustible material or any surface that is difficult to clean.

• It is desirable to allow at least 6” side clearance to non-combustible construction above the cooking surface for counter space. If using the rotisserie option, the space is essential for motor and skewer clearance. The grill can be placed directly adjacent to combustible and/or noncombustible construction below the cooking surface.

• When determining a suitable location for the grill, take into account concerns such as exposure to wind, proximity to traffic paths and keeping gas supply lines as short as possible. Locate the grill only in a well-ventilated area. Never locate the grill in a building, garage, shed or other such fully enclosed areas. During heavy use, the grill will produce a lot of smoke. Ensure there is adequate area for it to dissipate.

T-Series Grills:

• When using a rear wall, locate the electrical service on the right hand side for the rotisserie motor. The rotisserie motor requires a 110/120 volt supply. The power supply cord on the motor is equipped with a 3-prong (grounded) plug for protection against shock hazard. Do not cut or remove the grounding from the plug. The electrical service must be equipped with a properly grounded 3-prong receptacle as required by the National Electrical Code

ANSI/NFPA 70-latest edition. Installation in

Canada must be in accordance with the

Canadian Electrical Code, CSA 22.1 and local codes.

E-Series Grills:

• When using a rear wall, locate a 110/120 volt supply outlet on the bottom left hand side beneath the solid bottom support at a maximum distance of 2 feet. This connection is to be used for the ignition system and canopy lights. In addition, the rotisserie motor requires a separate

110/120 volt supply to be located on the right hand side of the grill. Both the power supply cords for the ignition/lights and the rotisserie motor are equipped with a 3prong (grounded) plug for protection against shock hazard. Do not cut or remove the grounding from the plug. The electrical service must be equipped with a properly grounded 3-prong receptacle as required by the National Electrical Code

ANSI/NFPA 70-latest edition. Installation in

Canada must be in accordance with the

Canadian Electrical Code, CSA 22.1 and local codes.

IMPORTANT: Gas fittings, regulator, and installer supplied shut-off valve must be easily accessible.

WARNING

GAS CONNECTION

Verify the type of gas supply to be used, either natural or LP, and make sure the marking on the grill rating plate agrees with that of the supply. Never connect an unregulated gas line to the appliance. An installer supplied gas shut-off valve must be installed in an easily accessible location. All installer supplied parts must conform to local codes, or in the absence of local codes, with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 and the National Fuel Code, ANSI

Z223.1/NFPA 54.

In Canada: Installation must be in accordance with the current CSA-B149.1,

Natural Gas Installation Code or CSA-

B149.2, Propane Installation Code and/or local codes. All pipe sealants must be an approved type and resistant to the actions of

LP gas. Never use pipe sealant on flare fittings. All gas connections should be made by a competent technician and in accordance with local codes and or ordinances. In the absence of codes, the installation must comply with the National

Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54. The gas grill and its individual shut-off valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of 1/2

PSIG (3.5 kPa). The gas grill must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shut-off valve during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 psi

(3.5 kPa). Built-in installations must be plumbed using a fixed/hard line if the unit is going to be operated at a distance exceeding 3 feet (0.91 meters) from the fuel supply per ANSI Z21.24 CSA.

GAS CONVERSION

To convert a grill from natural to

LP/Propane Tank Requirements

A dented or rusty LP/Propane tank may be hazardous and should be checked by your tank supplier. Never use a cylinder with a damaged valve. All tanks should be equipped with an OPD (overfilling protection device). This is a DOT requirement for all tanks purchased after October 1, 1998 and will ensure that the tank is not overfilled. The

LP/Propane tank should be a standard 5-gal,

20 lb. gas cylinder tank approximately 12” in diameter and 18” high which must be constructed and marked in accordance with the Specifications for LP/Propane Gas

Cylinders of the U.S. Department of

Transportation (D.O.T.) or the National

Standard of Canada, CAN/CSA-B339,

Cylinders, Spheres and Tubes for

Transportation of Dangerous Goods; and

Commission. The cylinder connection device must be compatible with the Type 1, QCC-1 connector on the outdoor cooking appliance.

All LP/Propane tanks must be mounted in a vertical position for proper ventilation. The cylinder must be provided with a shut-off valve terminating in an LP/Propane gas supply cylinder valve outlet specified. The cylinder supply system must be arranged for vapor withdrawal and provided with a listed overfilling prevention device. If the appliance is stored indoors the cylinder must be disconnected and removed from the appliance. Each tank is supplied with a dust cap. 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. The cylinder used must include a collar to protect the cylinder valve. Cylinders must be stored outdoors in a well-vented area out of the reach of children.

BUILT-IN INSTALLATIONS

Built-in installations must be plumbed using a fixed/hard line if the unit is going to be operated at a distance exceeding 3 feet (0.91

meters) from the fuel supply per ANSI Z21.24

CSA. Also, in a built-in construction where an

LP/Propane tank is going to be used, there

MUST be some type of support (braces, cutout, etc.) to prevent tank from moving within the installation. The support must also allow the LP/Propane tank to withstand a horizontal tipping force equal to the weight of the tank without tipping over. The tank can not tip over or deflect more than 1.00 inch when a 38 lb. horizontal force is applied to a 20 lb.

LP/Propane tank.

24

LP/Propane Tank Connection

Outdoor grills orificed for use with

LP/Propane gas come equipped with a high capacity hose/regulator assembly for connection to a standard 20 lb. LP/Propane cylinder equipped with a Type 1, QCC-1 connector. Hose assembly must comply with

Elastomeric Composite Hose and Couplings for conducting Propane and Natural Gas,

CAN/CGA-8.1 standard or the Theromplastic

Hose and Hose Couplings for connector to the LP/Propane tank. Open the tank valve and check the connection between the regulator and the Type 1, QCC-1 fitting for leaks with a soapy water solution. If bubbles appear, tighten the connection.

Repeat until all leaks have been stopped.

ALWAYS CHECK FOR LEAKS AFTER EVERY

LP/PROPANE TANK CHANGE. Any joint sealant used must be an approved type and be resistive to the actions of LP/Propane gas.

WARNING

Leak Testing

DANGER

Although all gas connections on the grill are leak tested at the factory prior to shipment, a complete gas tightness check must be performed at the installation due to possible mishandling in shipment or excessive pressure unknowingly being applied to the unit. Periodically check the whole system for leaks, or immediately check if the smell of gas is detected.

• Do not smoke while leak testing.

• Extinguish all flames.

• Never leak test with an open flame

CAUTION

Before placing into operation, always check for gas leaks with a soapy water solution. DO NOT

USE AN OPEN FLAME TO CHECK FOR LEAKS.

Burner Adjustment

Each burner is tested and adjusted at the factory prior to shipment; however, variations in the local gas supply may make it necessary to adjust the burners. The flames of the burners (except the rotisserie infrared burner) should be visually checked and compared with the following illustrations.

CORRECT YELLOW BLUE LIFTING

Flames should be blue and stable with no yellow tips, excessive noise or lifting. If any of these conditions exist, check if the air shutter or burner ports are blocked by dirt, debris, spider webs, etc. With a proper flame height, adjust the air shutter to obtain a blue flame with no yellow tipping that sits on the burner at the burner ports. The air shutter is locked in place by a set screw which must be loosened prior to lighting the burner for adjustments.

Performance Checklist

A qualified installer should carry out the following checks:

• All internal packaging removed.

• Specified clearances maintained to combustible materials.

• Pressure regulator connected and set.

• Manual shut-off valve installed and accessible.

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

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

• Each burner lights satisfactorily, individually or with adjacent burners lit.

Any adjustments necessary that are the result of the installer not following instructions will be responsibility of the installer, dealer or the end user of the product.

Final Preparation

• Some stainless steel parts may have a plastic protective wrap which must be peeled off. The interior should be washed thoroughly with hot, soapy water to remove film residues and any dust or debris before being used, then rinsed and wiped dry. Solutions stronger than soap and water are rarely needed.

• All stainless steel body parts should be wiped with hot, soapy water and with a liquid 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 to remove encrusted materials, soak with hot, wet cloths to loosen the material, then use a wool or nylon scraper. Do not use a metal knife, spatula, or any other material tool to scrape stainless steel! Scratches are almost impossible to remove.
