Page 9: Installing Your Grill
INSTALLING YOUR GRILL BEFORE YOU START If your dealer has had your grill delivered, please check for visible damage to the outer carton immediately. Please make the delivery person aware of the damage right away and please call your dealer. If the damage is not noticed until the merchandise is unpacked you should notify your dealer within 15 days of the delivery date. - Page 10 Built-in Installations Clearances from Combustible Construction A minimum of 18” from the sides and rear of the grill must be maintained to adjacent vertical combustible construction, above the counter top level. You should take into account that there is a large volume of heat, and smoke that will exhaust from the rear of the grill.
- Page 11 Clearances from Non-Combustible Construction A minimum of 6” clearance from the back of the grill to non-combustible construction is required for the purpose of allowing the lid to open fully (Figure 04). It is desirable to allow at least 6” rear and side clearance to noncombustible construction above the cooking surface for counter space.

It will either be Natural Gas (NAT) or Liquid Propane (LP)., Please make sure the marking on the appliance rating plate is consistent with the type of gas supply you are intending to use. - Page 14 Liquid Propane (LP) GAS Grills set up for LP gas come equipped with an LP hose/regulator assembly for connection to a standard 20 lb. LP cylinder. (Type 1). All fittings necessary to attach the assembly to the grill are included with your grill. Type 1 Cylinder CAUTION! Before connecting LP cylinder to regulator, check that all grill burners and rotisserie valves...
- Page 15 LP Cylinder Requirements • The LP cylinder must be constructed and marked in accordance with the specifications for LP gas cylinders of the U.S Department of Transportation (DOT). • Cylinders must be secured using the provided cylinder retention system to avoid accidental movement.
- Page 16 Natural Gas Natural gas installation should only be carried out by a qualified technician. Fit the natural gas regulator that was supplied with your grill directly to the grill inlet located on the right side of the grill. You can do this using either hard plumbing or a flexible hose connected to a bayonet point.

Page 22: Basic Grilling
BASIC GRILLING Preheating Preheating your grill is extremely important and provides more consistent cooking results. Preheat your grill by igniting all the main burners including the sear burner and setting them to High. Then close the hood of the grill and allow the grill to heat up for 10 to 15 minutes. -
Page 23: Using The Sear Burner
Indirect Grilling Any large food item or cut of meat more than about 2 inches thick should be grilled indirectly. Indirect grilling requires that the heat source be opposite the intended cooking area. To accomplish this, simply turn the burners “ON”... - Page 24 How to Sear Searing locks in the flavor and juices of food while allowing the outer surface to absorb smoke and aromas by the vaporized drippings of the food. The tube burners in your grill are not capable of producing searing heat, the infrared burner is specifically designed for this purpose.
- Page 25 Controlling the Flames All burner control knobs have three basic positions: “OFF”, “LOW” and “HIGH”. You can achieve any flame height between low and high by rotating the control knob between these positions.

Page 26: Cleaning And Maintenance
CLEANING & MAINTENANCE Your new grill must be kept clean and properly maintained to maximize its performance and longevity. Clean the internal parts of the grill regularly as determined by the amount of use and food cooked. The entire grill should be cleaned at least twice a year. To ensure safe and proper use, follow these directions carefully: Cleaning the Cooking Grates The easiest way to clean the cooking grates is to scrub them immediately... - Page 27 Cleaning the Burners Spiders and small insects occasionally inhabit or make nests in the burner tubes, obstructing the gas flow. Sometimes this results in a type of fire in and around the gas tubes called a “flashback”. To reduce the risk of a flashback, follow the instructions below at least once a month or when your grill has not been used for an extended period of time.
