Placement and Location
Cal Flame™ grills and carts are designed for outdoor use•
only.
Never locate this appliance in an enclosed room, under a sealed• overhead structure, or in any type of enclosed area such as a ga-
rage, shed, or breezeway. Keep clear of trees and shrubs.
Do not place this grill under or near windows or vents that can be• opened into your home.
Cal Flame™ grills are not intended for installation in or on recre-• ational vehicles or boats.
Maintain sufcient distance as to not overheat any overhead com-• bustible material such as a patio cover.
The area surrounding your new grill should be kept clean and free•
from ammable liquids and other combustible materials such as
mops, rags or brooms, as well as solvents, cleaning uids, and
gasoline.
Do not use the grill, grill cabinet, or area surrounding the grill as a•
storage area for ammable or plastic items. Do not store the liquid
propane (LP) cylinder in the vicinity of this or any other appliance
when it is not being used.
Set-Up
Before installing built in grills in enclosures, copy all product in-• formation such as model number, serial number and type of grill
(e.g. natural gas or LP) and store information in a safe place. This
information is located on a plate located behind the grill and is vis-
ible when the hood is lowered or on the right side of the chassis.
There is an area on the back cover of this manual where you can
write down this information.
We recommend that a licensed contractor install your Cal Flame™• grill. Installation must conform to local codes, or in the absence
of local codes, with either the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI
Z223.1 / NFPA54, Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code,
Safety Instructions
WARNING: Improper installation, adjustment, alteration,

CSA B149.1, or Propane Storage and Handling Code, B149.2),
as applicable.
Your Cal Flame™ grill or cart must be plugged into a permanent,• grounded 110V outlet with a dedicated 15A GFCI breaker in accor-
dance with local codes or the National Electrical Code, ANSI /
NFPA 70, or the Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.1.
Do not use an extension cord to supply power to your Cal Flame™•
grill or cart. Such use may result in re, electrical shock or other
personal injury. Do not install a fuse in the neutral or ground cir-
cuit. A fuse in the neutral or ground circuit may result in an elec-
trical shock hazard. Do not ground this appliance to a gas supply
pipe or hot water pipe. Keep any electrical supply cords and the
fuel supply hose away from any heated surfaces.
To prevent re and smoke damage, remove all packaging material • before operating grill.
Before you start cooking, clean the entire grill thoroughly with hot,• soapy water. This is necessary to remove residual solvents, oil and
grease used in the manufacturing process. The grates should also
be thoroughly cleaned in the same manner.
Operation
In the event that a burner goes out, turn burner knobs to the full• OFF position, fully open the grill hood and let it air out. Do not at-
tempt to use the grill until the gas has had time to dissipate.
Never use the grill if the drip pan is not properly installed. Drip•
pan should be pushed all the way to the rack located just under
the grill. Fire or explosion can result from an improperly installed
drip pan.
Keep all electrical supply cords and the rotisserie motor cord away• from the heated areas of the grill.
Never use the grill or side burner in windy conditions. If used in a•
consistently windy area a windbreak will be required. Always ad-
here to the specied clearances listed in this manual.
Never line the grill or side burners with aluminum foil.•
When the unit is not in use, be sure to turn off the gas at the LP• tank.

Do not install or operate your grill unit in such a manner that the• cross ventilation openings are blocked. Fresh air must be able to
pass though installed vents to safeguard against residual gas ac-
cumulation. Failure to allow proper ventilation may cause re or
explosion.
When handling LP gas line and connectors, do not allow them to• come in contact with any metal surfaces of the cart or cabinet. Do
not drop LP connectors.
Gas sources to the grill and side burners must be regulated. Do• not operate grill or side burners if regulators have been removed,
re or explosion can occur.
Never leave the grill and side burners unattended when in use.• When using pots and pans, boil-overs will cause smoking and
greasy boil-overs may ignite.
Always use the proper size pan. Select utensils with at bottoms • large enough to cover the burner. The use of under-sized utensils
exposes the sides of the utensils to direct contact with a portion
of the ame. This can scorch utensils and hamper cleanup. Exces-
sive ames on large stainless steel pots can result in permanent
discoloration. For best results, we recommend commercial quality
aluminum pans and utensils.
Always position handles of utensils so they do not extend over ad-•
jacent work areas or cooking areas. This reduces the risk of burns,
ignition of ammable materials, and spillage due to accidental con-
tact with the utensils.
Do not use water on grease res. Never pick up a aming pan. •
Turn the appliance off and smother the aming pan with a tight-
tting lid, a cookie sheet or a at tray. For aming grease outside
of the pan, smother it with baking soda or use a dry chemical or
foam-type re extinguisher.
Never allow clothing, pot holders or other ammable materials • come in contact with or be close to any grate, burner or hot sur-
face until it has fully cooled. Never wear loose tting or hanging
garments while using your grill. Fabric may ignite and result in
personal injury.
When using the grill, do not touch the grill rack, burner grate, or• immediate surroundings as these areas become extremely hot and
can cause burns.

Only use dry pot holders and do not use a towel or other bulky• cloth in place of pot holders. Moist or damp pot holders used on
hot surfaces can cause burns.
Do not heat any unopened glass or metal container of food on the• grill. Pressure may build up and cause the container to burst, pos-
sibly resulting in serious personal injury or damage to the grill.
Do not reach over your grill or any other surfaces when hot or in• use.
Maintenance and Repair
Spiders and other insects can nest in the burners of the grill and•
block the gas and airow to the burner ports. This creates a dan-
gerous condition that can result in a re behind the valve panel. In-
spect and clean the burners periodically and follow the guidelines
in the Cleaning and Maintenance section of this manual.
Unless specically recommended in this manual, do not repair or •
replace any part of the grill. A qualied technician should perform
all service. Any repairs made by a non- LMS approved dealer tech-
nician will void your warranty.
Storage
When your gas grill is not in use, turn off the gas at the supply• cylinder.
Storage of a grill or cart indoors is permissible only if the supply• cylinder is disconnected and removed.
Precautions Regarding Children
Never leave children unattended in the area where the grill is be-• ing used.
Do not store items of interest to children around or below the grill• or cart.
Never allow children to sit or stand on any part of the grill or cart.•
