Page 11: Installation
INSTALLATION Locating Grill/Built-in Clearances IMPORTANT! Before installation, remove shipping brackets from the grill. Loosen the four screws. Slide the shipping bracket off and re-tighten the screws. Location When determining a suitable location, take into account concerns such as exposure to wind, proximity to traffic paths and keeping any gas or electrical supply lines as short as possible and away from heat sources. - Page 12 INSTALLATION Locating Built-in Clearances PREFERRED AIR FLOW IMPORTANT! Gas fittings, regulator, and installer supplied shut-off valves must be easily accessible. GRILL EXHAUST EXHAUST EXHAUST WIND DIRECTION FLAME LIFT PREFERRED AIR FLOW FIG. 01a FIG. 01b Wind hitting the grill while in use, (especially wind blowing into or across the hood gap) can cause poor performance and in some cases can cause the control panel to get dangerously hot.
- Page 13 INSTALLATION Locating Built-in Clearances Clearances to non-combustible construction* A minimum of 3” (76mm) clearance from the back of the grill to non-combustible construction is required for the purpose of allowing the hood to open fully. It is desirable to allow at least 6” (153mm) rear and side clearance to non-combustible construction above the cooking surface for counter space.
- Page 14 If the grill is to be placed into a combustible enclosure, an approved insulated jacket is necessary. Insulated jackets are available from your dealer. Use only the DCS insulated jacket which has specifically been designed and tested for this purpose. Review the detail drawing shown (Fig. 06) and take into account the provisions shown for gas line hook-up clearance in the right rear corner.
- Page 15 INSTALLATION Locating Built-in Clearances Clearances to protected combustible construction*** A minimum of 12" (305mm) clearance from the sides and rear of grill must be maintained to adjacent vertical protected combustible construction. Intense heat, and large volumes of smoke will exhaust from the rear of the grill.

Page 16: Built-In Construction Details
INSTALLATION Built-in Construction Details Standard layout for non-combustible cavity IMPORTANT! If installing the grill into a non-combustible enclosure, all combustible construction must still be outside the 18" (457mm) clearance zone. If your island is made of stucco over the top of wooden studs, the wood can not be inside the 18 inch clearance zone to combustible, even though the stucco is what is touching the grill area. - Page 17 INSTALLATION Built-in Construction Details Standard layout for cavity including insulated jacket Note: 4x4” (102mm x 102mm) opening for gas supply line Note: the cut-out of each corner should be a 90°angle in order for the access doors/ drawers to fit properly. Note: the enclosure should have ventilation holes to prevent gas build-up in the event of a leak.
