SHIPMENT ARRIVING DAMAGED:
IMPORTANT NOTES:
VISIBLE DAMAGE
BE MINDFUL OF WIND DIRECTION
If your shipment arrives with visible damage to
the box/carton, be sure the damage is noted
on the bill of freight or express receipt and
signed by the person making the delivery. File
claim for damages immediately, regardless of
the extent of damage.
When selecting a suitable location, consider
important factors such as exposure to the
wind and foot traffi patterns. If you have a
freestanding grill, position it so the prevailing
wind blows into the front control panel (at your
back when grilling), allowing for proper front
to rear airflo . Built-in grill located in areas
with prevailing winds should be protected by
a wind barrier, wind defle tor, or wind guard.
The grill is designed to pull in air from the
front and exhaust through the rear of the unit.
Winds hitting the back of the grill directly may
cause problems. Be sure wind doesn’t blow
into the hood gap.
CONCEALED DAMAGES
If damages are unnoticed until the grill is
unpacked, notify the transportation company
or carrier immediately and file a concealed
damage claim with them. This should be done
within (5) days of the delivery date. Be sure to
hold on to the box/carton for inspection. We
cannot assume responsibility for damage or
loss incurred in transit.
TESTING FOR LEAKS
Create a soapy water solution of 1 part soap
and 3 parts water. Confirm that all control
knobs are in the off position. Turn on the
fuel supply. For natural gas, turn the valve
handle ¼ turn to align with the gas flo . For
LP, turn the cylinder valve counter clockwise
one full rotation. Apply the soap solution
generously by paint brush or squirt bottle on
all connections and fittings If bubble appear
to grow on any of the connections, you have a
gas leak. IMMEDIATELY turn off the gas supply.
Wash off the soapy solution with cold water
and dry. Tighten the loose joint or replace the
faulty part with manufacturer-recommended
replacement parts. DO NOT attempt to repair
the L.P. cylinder valve if it is damaged. The
only way to safely resolve a damaged cylinder
is to replace it by calling an authorized gas
appliance service technician or an LP gas
dealer. Repeat the leak test to ensure that no
leaks are present. Do not use the appliance
until the leak is corrected.
2
GAS LINE LENGTH
Keep all gas supply lines as short as possible.
Gas lines lose pressure over distance and with
each elbow or “t” fittin added. This drop in
pressure affe ts grill performance.
PROPER LEVELING
PROPER LEVELING DURING INSTALLATION
IS CRITICAL. A GRILL THAT IS OUT OF LEVEL
WILL CAUSE ERRATIC BURNER COMBUSTION
AND INEFFICIENT, UNEVEN HEATING. THE
GRILL SHOULD BE LEVEL IN ALL DIRECTIONS.
ADJUSTMENTS MAY NEED TO BE MADE EACH
TIME WHEN MOVING A FREESTANDING UNIT.
CONSTRUCTION ZONES
Keep all stainless steel products away from
construction zones. Construction debris such
as (but not limited to) stone dust, stucco,
and lime dust could damage or permanently
discolor stainless steel products. Keep all
caustic chemicals including chlorine and pool
cleaning products away from stainless steel at
all times.

FILLING AND REFILLING LP GAS CYLINDERS
All purging and refilling of LP gas cylinders
must be performed by qualified personnel in
the LP gas industry. Never store a spare LP gas
cylinder under or near this appliance.
Never fill the LP gas cylinder beyond 80 percent
full. Failure to follow these instructions may
result in explosion, personal injury or death.
LP gas grill models are designed for use with a
standard 20 lb. liquid propane gas (LP) tank with
type (1) valve connections. (Not included)
Never connect your gas grill to an LP tank that
exceeds this capacity. A tank of approximately 12
inches in diameter by 18-1/2 inches high is the
maximum size LP gas tank to use. A propane
tank with an OPD (Overfill Prevention Device)
must be used. This safety feature prevents the
tank from being over-filled which can cause
malfunction of the LP gas tank, regulator and/
or grill.
The LP cylinder must be constructed and
marked in accordance with the specification
for LP gas cylinders of the U.S. Department of
Transportation (DOT) and designed for use with
a Type 1 system only. Be sure to read and follow
all LP connection instructions.
LIQUID PROPANE INSTALLATION
NOTE: Ventilation is require in the enclosure
on opposite sides to create cross-ventilation.
Liquid propane is heavier than natural gas
and vents should be located near the bottom
of the enclosure.
A dented or rusty LP cylinder may be
hazardous and should be avoided. If in doubt,
have it checked by your LP supplier. Always
check for leaks after every LP cylinder change.
(See Checking For Leaks)
Cylinders must be stored outdoors in a wellventilated area out of the reach of children.
If your grill is stored indoors, the LP cylinder
must be stored outside, in upright position
and away from excessive heat.
IMPORTANT
All installation and all installation parts
must conform to local codes with the

PRIOR TO TURNING ON THE ROTISSERIE
BURNER. Turning the rotisserie burner on while
the warming rack is installed will cause the
warming rack to warp and void the warranty.
M A IN T E N A NCE TIPS
PRE-HEATING THE GRILL
Pre-heating your grill every time you use it is
extremely important. Pre-heating allows the
briquettes to properly heat up, providing more
even and more consistent cooking results. Preheat your grill by igniting all main burners.
Then close the hood and allow the grill to heat
for 10 to 15 minutes, the hood thermometer
should reach approximately 450°. Once you’ve
reached your desired pre-heat temperature,
turn off the burners that you won’t be using
to cook your food. Remember, surface
temperature can be up to 200° higher.
SHUT OFF INSTRUCTIONS
1.
2.
To shut off the unit, depress each valve
control knob and while pressing turn
clockwise to the “OFF” position.
Always close the valve from the gas
supply after each use of the uni .
NOTE: When using a portable propane tank:
Propane tanks are equipped with a safety
shutdown device that may cause low or no gas
pressure/flame at the burners if operating and
lighting instructions are not followed exactly.
CLEANING THE DRIP TRAY
The drip tray should be cleaned after each use.
After the grill is completely cool, remove the drip
tray by pulling it out until it stops, then lifting the
front edge until the drip tray comes free. Clean
it with hot soapy water or an oven-style cleaning
product and re-install. When using an ovenstyle cleaning product be sure to carefully follow
M A IN T E N A N C E T IPS
the manufacturer’s instructions. Many of these
cleaners are toxic and can damage the stainlesssteel finish if not used properly. Also, check the
tray after rain. If you’ve left the grill uncovered,
you may need to remove the drip tray to drain
the water from the tray.

on high for 3 minutes
Turn the burner to “LOW”
Pull off the control kno
Use a flat head screw driver and adjust
the “gold flathead screw” in the valve to
the proper flame heigh
MAINTENANCE TIPS
STAINLESS STEEL NEEDS TO BE CLEANED?!?
ABSOLUTELY!
Stainless steels need to be cleaned for aesthetic
considerations and to preserve corrosion
resistance. Stainless steel is protected from
corrosion by a thin layer of chromium oxide.
Oxygen from the atmosphere combines with
the chromium in the stainless steel to form this
passive chromium oxide film that protects from
further corrosion. Any contamination of the
surface by dirt, or other material, hinders
this passivation process and traps corrosive
agents reducing corrosion protection. Thus,
routine cleaning is necessary to preserve
the appearance and integrity of the surface.
STAINLESS STEEL MAINTENANCE
After each use wipe down the exterior of the
grill to remove grease and splatters. Use a
commercially available stainless-steel cleaner
to clean and polish the exterior surfaces. Doing
these things on a regular basis minimizes the
amount of effo t required
When removing stubborn stains:
•
Do not use metallic abrasives and
always rub in the direction of the grain
•
Some household cleaning products are
not suitable for stainless steel; be sure
to read the label before using on the
grill
•
Always use the mildest cleaning
solution firs , scrubbing in the direction
of the grain
•
Specks of grease may gather in the
grain of the stainless steel and bake on
to the surface, giving the appearance of
rust
•
To remove these baked-on foods use
a fine to medium grit non-metallic
abrasive pad (Scotch Brite is good)
in conjunction with a stainless-steel
cleaner
•
Solutions used for cleaning concrete
and masonry can be very corrosive and
will ‘attac ’ stainless steel
•
Be sure your Summerset products
are well protected before using these
products
IMPORTANT NOTE: FOR LOCATIONS
NEAR COASTAL AREAS AND POOLS

Burn off excess food debris and
marinades for 15 minutes after cookin
Once the unit is cool, turn over the
burner covers and burn the top side
(the burner covers are reversible and
are able to be mounted upside down
for cleaning purposes)
Use an approved stainless-steel oven
cleaner to remove grease build up
Routinely have a professional barbecue
cleaning company detail the barbecue
for best results and longevity
•
•
•
Regularly wipe down the exterior
surfaces with a damp cloth (micro fiber
towels work well)
Allow the surfaces to dry before
installing the cover Do not cover a
damp grill
In extreme environments apply a rust
inhibitor which leaves a microscopic
protective layer on the grill
For seasonal storage use the product
referred to above, ensure the grill is
dry, then cover and secure the cover
to minimize the amount of damp air
getting to the surface

GRIL L FE AT U RE S
After your first use, certain areas of the grill
may discolor from the intense heat given o
by the burners - this is normal and cannot
be cleaned o . For light and heavy food
stains there are many different stainless-steel
cleaners available.
ROTISSERIE INSTALLATION
CAUTION: When using the back burner, keep
the grill lid closed to prevent heat loss, provide
proper convection and provide proper venting.
This will ensure even cooking temperatures.
When using the rotisserie with the hood open,
be careful in windy conditions, always being
mindful of heat dispersion.
Do not use the rotisserie motor in the rain. Do
not leave the motor on the grill when not in
use.
