INSTALLATION

INSTALLATION

It is not required to remove the control panel or knobs to install this unit.

DO NOT lift the unit from the control panel when installing.

COUNTER PREPARATION

Consult Table 3 for non-combustible enclosure cutout dimensions. An AOG insulating liner must be used if any supporting construction is combustible. Consult the instructions that come with the liner for dimensions and additional installation information before beginning the installation.

This outdoor built-in grill must be supported by the stainless-steel hanger extending from the upper portion of the grill. The hanger rests on the left, right, and back of the countertop.

The control panel is designed to sit flush against the enclosure front wall (see Fig. 19-1). If the non-combustible countertop extends beyond the front wall, creating a countertop overhang (see Fig. 19-2), it must be cut flush with the front wall for the width of the control panel or a gap will be created exposing the forward portions of the left and right side grill fire walls. See the MODEL

SPECIFICATIONS section.

INSTALL THE VAPORIZER PANELS

Place the vaporizer panels directly onto the studs on the burners. See Fig. 20-2. The panels allow heat from the burners to be evenly distributed throughout the cooking area. The panels are stainless steel and will heat and cool quickly, making your grill very responsive to the changes you specify in grill temperature. They are rust resistant and may be cleaned with standard oven cleaners. Some discoloring will be seen with use. This is normal for stainless steel and does not affect the function.

INSTALLATION (Cont.)

INSTALL THE COOKING GRIDS

Carefully place each cooking grid onto the front and rear grid rests of the grill. See Fig. 21-1.

INSTALL THE DRIP TRAY

Fully insert the drip tray into the bottom front of the control panel. See Fig. 21-2.

INSTALL THE WARMING RACK

The warming rack (Fig. 21-3) is packed separately. To install the warming rack, carefully insert the rack hangers into the two holes in the back of the inner oven hood, then lower the front of the rack to a level position.

SERVICING AND CLEANING

Your grill requires regular cleaning and maintenance.

Refer to these instructions for details. Performing these procedures will ensure proper operation, appearance, and safety.

WARNINGS

• Prior to servicing or cleaning make sure the unit is completely cool, the control knobs are turned to the OFF position, and the gas supply is shut off.

• Wear appropriate gloves and safety glasses during any servicing or cleaning.

• DO NOT spray any cleaner or liquids on the grill when hot.

• The grill MUST be cleaned regularly to prevent grease build-up and other food deposits. A clean and well maintained grill prevents the risk of grease build-up and grease fires.

• Verify proper operation after servicing or deep cleaning.

• See INSTALLATION, OPERATION, AND SAFETY INFORMATION section for additional related information.

CLEANING YOUR GRILL

Before Each Use

1. Inspect and clean the exterior surfaces of the unit:

With a cool grill, clean any dust, grease, splatter, or spills as needed with a damp clean cloth.

After Each Use

1. Perform a burn-off and clean the cooking grids:

Operate the grill on high with the hood closed for 15 minutes to burn-off food and grease and allow for an easier cooking grid clean. Then turn OFF the grill and use a grill brush to clean the cooking grids of all residue. Use long-handled insulated BBQ tools and wear an insulated glove / oven mitt.

2. Check and clean your drip tray:

When the grill is cool, carefully remove the drip tray and dispose of contents appropriately. Clean tray in a soapy water solution if needed. For tough deposits, a copper pad can be used. Rinse and dry completely.

3. Cover your grill:

Once the grill is dry and cool, cover your grill with an AOG protective cover (not included).

Twice A Year (or as needed) - Deep Clean

1. Interior of grill:

In addition to cleaning the cooking grids and drip tray, a deep clean of the interior of the grill, burners, and all components MUST be performed twice year (or as needed depending on use). Refer to the CARE, CLEANING, & MAINTENANCE GUIDE manual provided with your grill, or simply scan the QR code on the right.

Important:

The burner ports and carry-over ports/slots MUST be kept clean to ensure proper ignition and operation. The guide provides all details on cleaning.

2. Exterior of grill:

With a cool grill, use a grill cleaner (or a soapy water solution) and a clean cloth to remove grease and dirt from the outside of the grill. For tough deposits, a copper pad can be used. Always wipe with the grain. Rinse and dry completely. Then follow up with a stainless steel cleaner and a clean cloth. DO NOT use other cleaners or chemicals.

If this routine cleaning is not performed, the stainless steel may become dull and develop surface rust (due to use and atmospheric conditions). If left uncleaned, significant damage and pitting may occur.

Important:

DO NOT use steel wool, any other metal tools, or any other cleaners/chemicals to clean the exterior other than recommended above. Such items promote rust.

Wipe with grain

Fig. 27-1

Wipe with grain

Note:

Due to the nature of stainless steel, temperatures produced by the grilling process will cause discoloration. This can be reduced by routine cleaning.

27

SERVICING AND CLEANING (cont.)

For Environments High In Salt, Chloride, Or Other Corrosive Chemicals

When this grill is installed in a corrosive environment such as near the ocean (salt air), poolside (chlorine and/or pool chemicals) or any other location with exposure to high salt/chloride content or corrosive chemicals/solutions, it will be more susceptible to corrosion and MUST be maintained/cleaned more frequently.

• DO NOT store any corrosive chemicals (chlorine, hydrochloric acid, fertilizer, etc.) near your stainless steel grill.

• DO NOT allow any corrosive materials (masonry dust, debris, etc.) to settle on your stainless steel grill.

• These environments, chemicals, and materials may cause the 304 stainless steel to develop surface rust and consequently pitting. Under these conditions the grill exterior MUST be cleaned at least monthly. Inspect your grill often and clean accordingly.

Protecting Your Grill

An optional AOG protective cover will protect your grill when not in use. Install the cover on a cool and dry grill. DO NOT cover a damp grill. During high humidity or after rainy conditions, remove the cover to dry trapped moisture if present. (If the cover is installed over a damp grill it can cause surface rust.)

Ensure that the INSIDE of the cover is DRY before putting it back on the grill.
