SAFETY PRACTICES AND PRECAUTIONS BE SURE all control knobs are in the OFF position and grill is cool prior to using any aerosol cleaner on or around the grill. The chemical that produces the spraying action could, in the presence of heat, ignite or cause metal part to corrode.
SAFETY PRACTICES AND PRECAUTIONS NEVER store a spare LP cylinder under or near the unit. NEVER fill the tank beyond ¾ full. A fire causing death or serious injury may occur. Never use a dented or rusty LP tank. A NOTE ON CLOTHING: For personal safety, wear proper apparel.
NATURAL GAS REQUIREMENTS Verify the type of gas to be used, either LP (propane), or Natu- ral gas, and make sure the marking on the appliance rating plate agrees with that of the supply. The rating plate is located under grease tray of the grill. Never connect an unregulated gas line to the appliance.
LP GAS REQUIREMENTS DRAWER AVAILABLE FOR 30 LBS HORIZONTAL LP TANK NOTE: When an LP unit is directly connected to in-house LP system, a step down regulator MUST be used to reduce the supply pressure to a max. 14”W.C. and min. 11” W.C. to the grill regulator. Grills that have orifices for use with LP gas come equipped with capacity hose/regulator assembly for con- nection to a standard 30lb.
LEAK TESTING GENERAL: Although all gas connections on the grill are leak tested at the factory prior to shipment, a complete gas tightness check must be performed at the installation site due to possible mishandling in shipment, or excessive pressure un- knowingly being applied to the unit.
LOCATING GRILL/ BUILT IN CLEARANCES GENERAL: The grill is designed for easy placement into non-combustible masonry enclosures. For non- combustible applications the grill drops into the opening shown in (Fig 5) and hangs from its side flanges. A deck is not required to support it from the bottom. 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.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION INSTRUCTIONS ELECTRICAL CONNECTION Use an approved extension cord, rated for 120 VAC, 15 Amps, to connect power to the transformer box. Make sure there are no cuts in the insulation to prevent electric shock. A certified GFIC receptacle must be installed and used for safety.

HELPFUL HINTS A FEW WORDS ON MEAT : The doneness of the meat, whether rare, medium or well done, is affected to a large degree by the thickness of the cut. Expert chefs say that it is impossible to have a rare doneness with a thin cut of meat.
