INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS

REV 11 -1401031355 L-C2-179
11
The control panel MUST remain removable for servicing
(see PARTS LIST).
ENSURING PROPER COMBUSTION AIR AND
COOLING AIRFLOW
Proper airflow (Fig. 11-1) MUST be maintained for the
grill to perform as it was designed. If airflow is blocked,
overheating and poor combustion will result. Do not
block the 1" (2.5 cm) front air inlet along the bottom of
the control panel or more than 75% of the cooking grid
surface with pans or griddles.
Note: The 1" (2.5 cm)
front air space
also allows
access to the
drip tray.
EXHAUST REMOVAL
If installed or used under a patio roof, the cooking grid
area must be fully covered by an exhaust hood with a
vent. An exhaust fan with a rating of 1,000 CFM (cubic
feet per minute) (472 liters per second) or more may be
necessary to effectively remove smoke and other cooking
by-products from the area under the hood.This grill must
not be used under unprotected overhead combustible
construction. THIS UNIT MUST NOT BE LOCATED IN
A FULLY ENCLOSED AREA OF ANY KIND.
GAS-SUPPLY PLUMBING REQUIREMENTS
For natural gas or a household propane system, rigid1/2"
(1.3 cm) or 3/4" (1.9 cm) black steel pipe or local code-
approved pipe is required to conduct the gas supply to
the unit. Contact your local gas supplier. Connect this
pipe to the supplied regulator. See the CONNECTING
TO GAS SUPPLY section for complete details. DO NOT
use a rubber hose within the grill enclosure. Apply
only joint compounds that are resistant to all gasses to
all male pipe fittings except flare fittings. Make sure to
tighten every joint securely.
Note: If 1/2" (1.3 cm) pipe is used with natural gas, it
should be no longer than 20' (6.1 meters).
Important: An external valve (with a removable key) in
the gas line is necessary for safety when
the grill is not in use. It also provides for
convenient maintenance.
CAUTION: Wind blowing into or across the rear
oven lid vent (Fig. 11-2) can cause
poor performance and/or dangerous
overheating. Orient the grill so that the
prevailing wind blows toward the front of
the grill (Fig. 11-3).
GAS SUPPLY AND MANIFOLD PRESSURES:
For natural gas - normal 7" (17.78 cm) water column
(w.c.), minimum 5" (12.7 cm), maximum 10 1/2" (26.7
cm). For propane gas - normal 11" w.c., minimum 10"
(25.4 cm), maximum 13" (33 cm).

FORYOUR SAFETY, you must provide the openings listed
below for drainage, replacement air, and cross-ventilation
of any storage area exposed to possible leakage from gas
connections, the unit, or propane cylinders.
One side of the enclosure can be left completely open to
the outside, OR 4 ventilation openings must be created:
NATURAL GAS INSTALLS
Two of the openings are to be at the top level (approx. 4"
belowthecountertop)and onoppositewallsoftheenclosure.
2 more openings must be at the floor level (approx.5" above
the floor) and on opposite sides of the enclosure. Each
opening must have a minimum of 10 sq. in. of free area.
To achieve the proper ventilation, you may drill a series of
holes, omit the grout from masonry joints, or replace a brick
with a hardware cloth screen. If the floor in the cabinet is
raised and the space beneath the cabinet is open to the
outside, the lower ventilation openings may be in the floor.
Reference Fig. 12-1.
PROPANE GAS INSTALLS
Two of the openings are to be at the cylinder valve level
(approx. 16" above the floor) and on opposite walls of
the enclosure. 2 more openings must be at the floor level
(approx. 5" above the floor) and on opposite sides of the
enclosure. Each opening must have a minimum of 10 sq.
in. of free area. To achieve the proper ventilation, you may
drill a series of holes, omit the grout from masonry joints,
or replace a brick with a hardware cloth screen. If the floor
in the cabinet is raised and the space beneath the cabinet
is open to the outside, the lower ventilation openings may
be in the floor. Reference Fig. 12-1.
WHEN A PROPANE CYLINDER IS USED

CHECKING AND CONVERTING GAS TYPE
This unit comes from the factory configured for one type
of gas, as marked on the label located behind the control
panel, or on the interior of the unit’s enclosure.
Converting this unit to burn a different type of gas
requires a conversion kit (contact your dealer for
details).The professional installer who converts this
unit to burn a different gas must perform the following
functions:
1. Change brass gas orifices (included at original shipping)
on each burner to match the new gas type (see
PRODUCT DATA TABLE, Table 1).
2. If applicable, switch the convertible gas regulator to
match the new gas type (see section below).
Note: Models to be connected to household propane
or natural gas lines require the regulator. For
models to be connected to L.P. Cylinders, the
regulator is optional.
3. Plumb the unit as appropriate for the new gas supply.
4. Apply the label for the new gas (included at original
shipping) over the old gas information found on your
unit.
THIS APPLIANCE REGULATOR IS RATED FOR 1/2PSI MAXIMUM. IF YOUR GAS SUPPLY IS
GREATER THAN 1/2PSI, AN ADDITIONAL REGULATOR MUST BE INSTALLED TO REDUCE
THE INPUT PRESSURE TO THE UNIT to 1/2PSI OR LESS. SEE GAS-SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS
SECTION FOR PROPER GAS-SUPPLY PRESSURE.
CHECKING AND CONVERTING THE REGULATOR (if applicable)
Note: Each end of the plastic converter is engraved with either the letters “NAT”
or “L.P.” (propane) for the respective gasses. When the converter is in the
cap and the cap is held uppermost, the letters seen indicate the gas that
the regulator is set up for.
To convert the regulator from one gas to another, follow steps 1-4.
STEP 2:
Remove the converter (the
plastic stalk) by carefully
pulling it away from the center
of the cap (it will snap out of
its seating).
STEP 1:
Unscrew and remove the cap from the
regulator, extracting the converter.
Regulator: note cap on top
STEP 3:
Turn the converter around and
replace it carefully, into the
center of the cap (it will snap
into place). Check that you can
read the type of gas the unit is
set for.
STEP 4:
Replace the unit into the
regulator and screw down
until snug.
