DANGER:
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE:
Certain Liquid Propane dealers may ll liquid propane cylinders for use in the grill beyond cylinder lling capacity.
is “Overlling” may create a dangerous condition.
“Overlled” tanks can build up excess pressure. As a safety device, the tank pressure relief valve will vent propane gas
vapor to relieve this excess pressure. is vapor is combustible and therefore can be ignited. To reduce this danger, you
should take the following safety precautions:
When you have your tank lled, be sure you tell the supplier to ll it to no more than 3/4 (75%) of its total capacity.
Do not store a full tank in direct sunlight.
WARNING!
Push and turn the selected burner knob om “OFF” to “HI”. If burner does not light in 4 to 5 seconds turn knob “OFF” and wait
5 minutes before trying again for any accumulated gas to dissipate. Repeat until the burner has lit.
Begin by insuring proper installation and servicing. Follow the installation instructions within this manual. Have your
grill installed by a qualied installer. Have the installer show you where the gas supply shut-o valve is located so that you
know where and how to shut o the gas to the grill. If you smell gas, your installer has not done a proper job of checking
for leaks. If the connections are not perfectly sealed, you can have a small leak and therefore a faint gas smell. Finding a
leak is not a “do-it-yourself ” procedure. Some leaks can only be found with the burner control in the “ON” position and
this must be done by a qualied technician.
»Never aach or disconnect an LP cylinder, or move or alter gas ings when the grill is in operation or is hot.
»Clean and perform general maintenance on the grill twice a year. Watch for corrosion, cracks, or insect activity.
»Check the regulator, hoses, burner ports, air shuer, and venturi/valve section carefully. Always turn o gas at the
source (tank or supply line) prior to inspecting parts.
If you smell gas:
1. Shut o gas to the grill.
2. Extinguish any open ame.
3. Open Lid.
4. If odor continues, keep away from the grill
and immediately call your gas supplier or local
re department.

GRILL PLACEMENT AND INSTALLATION
Clearance to non-combustible construction*:
A minimum of 3” clearance from the back of the grill to non-combustible
construction is required for the lid to open freely. It is desirable to allow at least 6” rear and side clearance to non-
combustible construction above the cooking surface for counter space. If you’ll be using the rotisserie option, the space is
essential for motor and skewer clearance. e grill can be placed directly adjacent to non-combustible construction be-
low the cooking surface. (Fig.03)
Important! Gas ings, regulator, and installer supplied shut-o valves must be easily accessible.
WARNING!
DO NOT install the grill in combustible enclosures. e Grill must be installed into a NON-Com-
bustible enclosure
LOCATION
»When selecting a suitable location, take into account concerns such as exposure to wind, proximity to trac paths, and
keeping gas supply lines as short as possible.
»When determining a suitable location take into account concerns such as exposure to wind, proximity to trac paths
and keeping any gas or electrical supply lines as short as possible and away from heat sources. Locate the grill only in
a well ventilated area. Do not build the grill under overhead unprotected combustible construction. Never locate the
grill in a building, garage, breezeway, shed or other such enclosed areas. During heavy use, the grill will produce a lot of
heat and smoke. Ensure there is adequate area for it to dissipate.
»If locating the grill in a windy area, try to locate the grill so the prevailing wind will blow air at the front of the grill.
is will assist the grill in venting hot air thru the back of the grill. In addition, this will help keep any smoke from
blowing at someone who is cooking on the grill. If you have to locate the grill in a windy area where the prevailing
wind is at the rear of the grill, a windbreak must be installed. e windbreak should be made such that it will block
wind from entering the exhaust vent in the rear of the unit.
»As high-performance gas appliance, your grill requires signicant amounts of air to support the combustion process.
Your grill is designed to take air in through the valve panel area, and send the exhaust products out through the exhaust
gap at the rear of the hood. Using your grill in windy conditions can disrupt the proper ow of air though your grill,
leading to reduced performance, or in certain severe cases, causing heat buildup in the valve panel area. is can lead to
problems such as having the knobs melt, or burn hazards when the valve panel surfaces become too hot to touch.
»During high wind conditions, it is best if you don’t use your grill. If you live in an area that is subject to frequent high
winds, or a steady directional wind, then the installation of a suitable windbreak may be advised. If you have a grilling
cart, it is best to position the unit so the prevailing wind blows into the valve panel, thus supporting the proper airow.
Winds hiing the back of the grill directly are the most likely to cause problems, although wind blowing along the
exhaust gap in the rear can also be problematic.
Please note that damage to your grill resulting from use in windy conditions, such as melted knobs or igniter wires, or
valve panel discoloration from heat build-up, are excluded from warranty coverage.

During heavy use, the grill will produce considerable smoke. therefore, locate the grill in a well-ventilated area.
Never locate the grill in a building, garage, breezeway, shed or other such enclosed areas without an approved
ventilation system for outdoor use.
If installing grill in an island in an open area, without suitable protection om windy conditions, a windbreak MUST be created
to ensure proper performance of the grill. If installation does not conform with manufacturer’s guidelines, your warranty will be
voided.
WARNING!
Failure to maintain required clearances creates a re hazard that may result in property damage or
serious personal injury.
WARNING!
Grill is designed to function in an open area. Recommended minimum clearances should be maintained to all surfaces
(combustible and noncombustible) for optimum performance. Noncombustible material within the minimum clearance area
could result in discoloration or deterioration.
WARNING!
If a noncombustible material such as stucco is covering a combustible material such as wood, the minimum clearance
distance needs to be held to the wood. e presence of a noncombustible material inside the clearance zone does not
eliminate the minimum clearance zone to combustible material.
* DEFINITION OF NONCOMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL - Material which is not capable of being ignited and burned,
such as materials consisting entirely of, or a combination of, steel, iron, brick tile, concrete, slate, and plaster.
Clearances to Combustible Construction**:
Minimum of 12” from the sides and rear of grill must be maintained to adjacent vertical combustible construction, above
the counter top level. You should take in account that there is a large volume of heat, and smoke will exhaust from the rear
of the grill. is may discolor or damage unprotected areas (Fig. below). Do not install under unprotected combustible
construction without using a re safe ventilation system. A 6” minimum clearance must be maintained under the counter
top to combustible construction. e clearance can be modied by a use of an insulated jacket.
** DEFINITION OF COMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL
Any materials of a building structure or decorative structure made of wood, compressed paper, plant bers, vinyl/plastic
or other materials that are capable of transferring heat or being ignited and burned. Such material shall be considered
combustible even though ame-proofed, re-retardant treated, or painted surface or plastered.

GRILL PLACEMENT AND INSTALLATION - cont’d
e grill is designed for easy placement into built-in masonry enclosures. For non-combustible applications the grill drops
into the opening shown below and hangs from its side anges. A deck is not required to support it from the boom.
A carpenter’s “spirit level” should be used to assure that the unit is level both front-to-back and side-to-side. If it
is not level, burner combustion may be erratic or the unit may not function eciently for grease ow. If the oor
is uneven or has a decided slope, re-leveling may be required aer each moving of a freestanding unit.
Important!
It is required that a minimum of (3) 10 sq. inches of ventilation opening be provided for both the le and right sides, as well
as the back of enclosure (Figs. below), in order to safely dissipate unburned gas vapors in the event of a gas supply leak.
WARNING!

To connect the LP regulator/hose assembly to the tank/valve assembly, rst make sure the main valve on the tank is
completely closed. Although the ow of gas is stopped when the Type 1 system is disconnected as part of of its safety
feature, you should always turn o the LP tank main valve aer each use and during transport of the tank or unit. Insert
the regulator inlet into the tank valve and turn to the black coupler clockwise until the coupler tightens up. Do not over-
tighten the coupler. Turn the main tank valve on and turn the burner control valves on the unit to the “HI” position for
about 20 seconds to allow the air in the system to purge, turn valves o and wait 5 minutes before aempting to light the
burners.
To disconnect the coupler, rst make sure the main tank valve is turned o. Grasp the coupler and turn counter clock-
wise. e inlet will then disengage. Remove the inlet from the tank valve opening if it has not already done so when it
disengaged. Your local LP lling station should be equipped with the proper equipment to ll your tank.
LP TANK REQUIREMENTS:
A dented or rusty LP tank may be hazardous and should be checked by your LP supplier. e cylinder that is used must
have a collar to protect the cylinder valve. Never use a cylinder with a damaged valve. Always check for leaks aer ev-
ery LP tank change. e LP gas cylinder must be constructed and marked in accordance with the specications for LP
gas cylinders of the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT or CAN/CSA-B339) and designed for use with a Type

60” GRILL LP GAS HOOK UP (TYPE 1 OR QCC1 REGULATOR):
e Caliber 60” Grill oriced for use with LP gas come equipped with a high capacity hose/regulator assembly for connec-
tion to a standard 20 lb. LP cylinder (Type 1). e LP tank is not included.
Connection - See diagram below:
(1) 45 deg Elbow ing, (1) Tee ing to connect to 45 deg elbow and ex line, (1) 90 deg Elbow ing 1/2FTP-3/8
Flare 45 deg that mates to the secondary manifold inlet at the Right hand side of the grill under the Dual Power Pro Top
burners, and (1) 3/8” dia x 48” length Flex Line(ALL included) which connects the le and right hand side grill manifold
inputs. LP Hose with a quick disconnect and ings are included. Operating pressure: 11.0” W.C.
CAUTION!
Before connecting LP tank to the Dual Stage regulator, check that all grill burners and side burners, and rotisserie valves
are in the OFF position and open grill lid.
To connect the LP regulator/hose assembly to the tank/valve assembly, rst make sure the main valve on the tank is
completely closed. Although the ow of gas is stopped when the Type 1 system is disconnected as part of of its safety
feature, you should always turn o the LP tank main valve aer each use and during transport of the tank or unit. Insert the
regulator inlet into the tank valve and turn to the black coupler clockwise until the coupler tightens up. Do not overtighten
the coupler. Turn the main tank valve on and turn the burner control valves on the unit to the “HI” position for about 20
seconds to allow the air in the system to purge, turn valves o and wait 5 minutes before aempting to light the burners.
To disconnect the coupler, rst make sure the main tank valve is turned o. Grasp the coupler and turn counter clockwise.
e inlet will then disengage. Remove the inlet from the tank valve opening if it has not already done so when it disengaged.
Your local LP lling station should be equipped with the proper equipment to ll your tank.

PRESSURE TESTING AND HOOKUPS
CAUTION! Use grill only in NON-COMBUSTIBLE enclosures. DO NOT build grill into a combustible enclosure.
PRESSURE TESTING
»e appliance and its individual shut o valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any
pressure testing of that system, at test pressures in excess of 1/2 PSIG (3.5 kPa).
»e appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shut-o valve during
any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 PSIG (3.5 kPa).
LOCAL CODES
»e installation of this appliance must conform to local codes. In the absence of local codes refer to the National Fuel
gas Code, ANSI Z223.1a-1998.
»Installation in Canada must be in accordance with the Standard Can1-b149.1 and/or .2 (installation for gas burning
appliance and equipment) and local codes.
NATUL GAS HOOK-UP
»Natural gas: manifold connection 1/2” NPT male with 1/2” coupling.
»Operating Pressure: 4.0 WC Supply pressure 5” to 14” W.C.
»If in excess of 14” WC, a step down regulator is required.
»Check with your local gas utility or with local codes for instructions or for installing gas supply lines.
FIINGS SUPPLIED WITH GRILL
»To hook up the ings supplied with grill, use threading compound on male thread only. Do not use threading com-
pound on the male end of 1/2” NPT to 3/8” are adaptor. Use second pipe wrench to hold the grill inlet pipe to avoid
shiing any internal gas lines of the grill. Ensure that the regulator arrow points in the direction of the gas ow towards
the unit. AWAY from the supply. Do not forget to place the installer supplied gas shut-o valve in an accessible loca-
tion.
PARTS SUPPLIED WITH UNIT
»(1) Nat Gas Regulator - 42” Grill, (2) Nat Gas Regulators - 60” Grill (60” Grill has 2 rear inlets, L/R side of the grill)
»(2) 1/2” NPT Nipple
»Not used with natural gas 1/2 coupler should be supplied also a 82108LP GAS HOOK-UP
»Never connect an unregulated gas line to the grill. LP unit grills come equipped with a high capacity hose/regulator
assembly (Type 1 QCC1) for connection to a standard 20LB LP cylinder (type 1). e LP tank is NOT included. Do
not place the tank directly beneath grill. If the unit is to be hard-piped to an external LP supply, contact your local gas
utility company for instructions in installing this appliance.
»Operating pressure: 10” WC
»To avoid heat degradation (loss of heat) keep the supply as short as possible
LP TANKS
»A dented or rusty LP tank may be hazardous and should be checked by your LP cylinder supplier. Never use a cylinder
with a damaged valve.
»e LP gas cylinder must be constructed and marked in accordance with the specications for LP gas Cylinders of the
US department of Transportation (DOT).
»e cylinder must be provided with a shut-o valve terminating in an LP gas supply cylinder valve outlet specied, as
applicable, for connection type QCC-1 in the standard for compressed gas cylinder valve outlet and inlet connection
ANSI/CGA-V-1.
NOTE: e LP Tank is NOT INCLUDED with the grill and must be purchased separately from your local LP cylinder sup-
plier.

LEAK TESTING
GENEL
»Although all gas connections to 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 unknowingly
applied to the unit. Periodically check the whole system for leaks, or immediately check if the smell of gas is detected.
BEFORE TESTING
»Make sure all packaging has been removed
»Do Not smoke while testing
»Never leak test with an open ame
e outdoor gas appliance (grill, side burners, wok) and its individual shut-o valve must be disconnected from the gas
supply piping system during any pressure testing of that system in excess of 1/2” PSI (3.5 kPa).
e outdoor gas appliance (grill, side burners, wok) must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its
individual manual shut-o valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at pressures equal to or less
than 1/2 PSI (3.5 kPa).
Make a soap and water solution of one part liquid detergent and one part water. You will need a spray bole, brush or rag,
to apply solution to the ings. For LP units, check with a full cylinder. Leak check the regulator to tank connections with
a soap and water solution before operating.
TO TEST
WARNING: Do not use the grill until all connections have been checked and DO NOT leak.
Make sure all control valves are in the “OFF” position. Turn the gas supply “ON”. Check all connections from the supply
line, or LP cylinder up to and including the manifold pipe assembly. Apply the solution around the connection, valve, and
tubing. Soap bubbles will appear where a leak is present. If a leak is detected, immediately turn “OFF” the gas supply, and
tighten any leaking ings. Turn gas “ON” and recheck.
If a gas leak is present, and you cannot stop the leak, immediately turn “OFF” the gas supply and call your local gas sup-
plier or installer who installed the appliance. Only authorized factory parts, or parts recommended by the manufacturer
should be used on the grill.
NOTE: Substitution of Parts Will Void e Warranty!
NOTE: Always check for leaks aer EVERY LP tank change.
IMPORTANT
»Check all gas supply ings for leaks before each use. It is handy to keep a spray bole of soapy water near the shut-o
valve of the gas supply line. Spray all the ings. Bubbles will indicate where leaks are located.
»e disconnected LP cylinders must have threaded valve plugs tightly installed, and must not be stored in a building,
garage, or any other enclosed area. e gas must be turned o at the supply cylinder when the unit is not in use.
»If the grill is stored indoors, the cylinder MUST BE disconnected and removed from the grill. Cylinders must be
stored outdoors in well ventilated areas, out of the reach of children and pets.
