ADVANCE PLANNING

Built-In Monogram Outdoor Grills are designed for
easy installation into a masonry, non-combustible
enclosure. The grill drops into he opening and hangs
from its side flanges.
• A deck is not required for support from the bottom.
• The cutout must be completely covered with
non-combustible material such as stone, brick,
ceramic tile, concrete board, etc. The counter surface
and edges must be flat and level.
Clearances:
• A 4" minimum
4" Min.
clearance is
Lid Clearance
required behind
the grill to allow
the hood to open.
Clearances to Combustible Materials:
• Allow at least a 12" clearance at the back of the grill
when the exhaust is directed to a window or a
surface that is difficult to clean.
• Allow 12" minimum clearance on both sides and the
back of the grill to adjacent vertical combustible
construction.
• These gas grills cannot be used below any type of
overhead construction.
Accessories:
• ZX27AD Access Doors may be installed directly
below a grill.
• ZX18DS Storage Drawers CANNOT be installed
directly below a grill or cooktop.
• ZX18TC Trash Bin CANNOT be installed directly below
a grill or cooktop.
Security:
Cart models are equipped with an anti-theft,
stationary-mount security loop. This loop allows
you to secure the grill to a structure. See page 19.
Cooktop Installation:
Both an LP or Natural gas cooktop can be installed
in combination with a grill. The cooktop can be
connected to the same LP tank as the grill.
• The cooktop can also be installed alone and be
supplied by a separate LP tank. In this case, you
must order a regulator hose assembly. Order
WB21X10156 regulator hose assembly for a 20-lb.
LP tank connection.

CHOOSING THE LOCATION

• These outdoor grills are designed for outdoor use
only. Do not locate the grill in a building, garage
or other enclosed or semi-enclosed area.
• Ensure that fresh air ventilation is adequate.
NEVER USE THE GRILL IN WINDY CONDITIONS. Wind hitting
the grill while in use, especially winds blowing into or across this
hood gap, can cause poor performance and in some cases can
cause the control panel to get hot enough to cause burns.
Steady or gusty winds can prevent the normal exhaust of hot
gases. Locate your grill away from prevailing winds and avoid
grilling in windy conditions.
• Locate the grill where prevailing winds will blow
into the front of the control panel.
• The minimum clearances to combustibles must
be maintained at all times.
• Do not install an outdoor grill below overhead
unprotected combustible construction.
• The location must be level and stable.
