Installation:
A. Installing in an outdoor cabinet:
This grill must be safely and correctly installed as a built in, before using. When installing in cabinetry that is built from
combustible materials, a zero clearance mounting kit (part # ZCAN850; Figure 7) must be utilized. IMPORTANT:
framing dimensions for combustible material requires a larger opening than in non-combustible cabinets. Please refer
to the chart below, for correct installation dimensions.
Framing must enclose the grill on the back and sides, but the bottom of the cut-out may be left open. The grill is
supported by the three integral flanges (left, right and rear), so no support underneath is required. NOTE: please
ensure that fuel line openings provide adequate space so that lines are not rubbing abrasive edges.
CABINET FRAMING DIMENSIONS:
*NOTE; rear cabinet back splash (if applicable) must be non-combustible.

Leak Testing:
1. 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
unknowingly being applied to the unit. Periodically check the whole system for leaks, or immediately check if the
smell of gas is detected.
2. BEFORE TESTING:
a) Make sure that all packing materials are removed from the grill and cart.
b) Do not smoke while leak testing.
c) Never leak test with an open flame.
d) Make a soap solution with one part liquid detergent and one part water. Prepare a spray bottle, brush, or rag
to apply the solution to the connections. For the initial leak test, make sure the propane cylinder is full.
e) Grill must be leak tested outdoors in well-ventilated area, away from ignition sources such as gas fired or
electrical appliances, and flammable materials.
3. TESTING PROCEDURES:
a) Make sure all control knobs are in the “OFF” position.
b) Make sure the regulator is connected to the propane cylinder tightly.
c) Completely open propane cylinder valve by turning counter clockwise. If you hear a “POP”sound, turn gas off
IMMEDIATELY, it indicates a heavy leak at the connection. Call your gas dealer or fire department.
d) Check every connection from the propane cylinder or natural gas quick release, up to and including the
connection to the manifold pipe assembly (the pipe that goes to the burner) by brushing or spraying the soapy
solution on the connections.
e) If soap bubbles appear, there is a leak. Turn off propane cylinder valve or natural gas quick release
IMMEDIATELY and retighten connections, Open valve again, and recheck.
f) Always close the propane cylinder valve after leak test by turning clockwise.
g) Only those parts recommended by the manufacturer should be used on the grill. Substitution can void the
warranty. Do not use the grill until all connections have been checked and do not leak.
4. LEAK TEST SAFETY TIPS:
a) Always check for leaks after every propane cylinder change.
b) Always check for leaks at every connection before use.(Including natural gas quick release hook up)
c) If any grease or hot items fall on the valve, regulator, hose or any part that conveys gas, shut the gas off
immediately, check the cause and rectify it. Then, perform a complete leak test before reusing the grill.

Main burners: 15,000 Btu/hr. X 5 = 75,000 BTU/hr.
Rear burners: 15,000 Btu/hr. X 1 = 15,000 BTU/hr.
Total Potential Consumption: = 90,000 BTU/hr.
SAFETY REMINDERS:
Always leak test your grill before use.
NEVER let children operate the grill or play near the grill.
This grill is for outdoor use ONLY. NEVER use in an enclosed area like a carport, porch, covered patio,
garage, or under a surface that can catch fire.
Do not block the ventilation holes in the four sides of the grill cart, it may affect the combustion
performance of the burner due to insufficient air.
Use your grill at least 36’’ away from any wall or surface &120’’ away from objects that may spark and
ignite gas i.e. live electrical appliances, pilot lights of water heaters, etc.
Do not use this grill on or under wood balconies.
This grill is designed to use only propane (or natural gas if equipped with natural gas orifices). DO NOT
use lava rock, briquettes, or charcoal with this grill.
NEVER light the burner with lid closed. Non-ignited gas accumulated inside a closed grill may cause
explosions.
Check the burner flames periodically.
Turn off the gas supply when the grill is not in use.
Always turn off the propane cylinder completely and detach from the grill before moving.
FOOD SAFETY:
Always adhere to the following tips to enjoy a safe and healthy outdoor grilling.
Always use hot soapy water to wash hands, surfaces & utensils after processing raw meat.
Always separate the raw meats from done foods to avoid cross contamination
Always use clean utensils to handle the food.
Always cook the meat thoroughly to kill germs. Use a thermometer to inspect the inner temp of the meat,
if necessary.
Place all foodstuffs promptly into refrigerator once the meal is over, to prevent spoiling.
1. General:
a) The thickness of the meat will affect the grilling time and results; whether rare, medium, or well done.
b) The pre-heated temperature of the grill affects grilling time and results.
c) Defrost meat in the refrigerator overnight. Do not use a microwave, as this dries out the meat.
d) For best results, use a metal spatula or tongs or a fork to turn the meat (not a fork).
e) To get the juiciest meats, use appropriate cooking times and temperatures.
f) Cut off any excess fat from the meat before grilling, as this will prevent flame flare ups.
g) The hot grids sear the food, caramelizing it for optimal flavor. The longer your grill is the preheated, the
faster the meat will sear.
!WARNING!
Clean your grill often, especially the
grease pan and grease cup. Failure to
do so may cause a grease fire, resulting
in injury or property damage!

15
2. Using the Grilling Surface (Cook Grids):
a) Grilling requires high heat for searing and proper browning.
b) Most foods are cooked at the “HI” heat setting for the entire
cooking duration.
c) When grilling large pieces of meat or poultry, it may be
necessary to turn the heat to a lower setting, after the initial
searing. This allows the food to cook through without burning
the outside. Foods cooked for a long time or basted with a
sugary marinade may need a lower heat setting near the end of the cooking time.
d) Turn the control knob(s) to “Hi” and preheat the grill for 8 minutes. (Time may vary based on climate)
Note: Keep the grill closed during preheating.
e) Place the food on the grill and cook to the desired doneness. Adjust heat setting, if necessary. The
control knobs may be set to any position between “HI” and “LO”.
3. Using the Rotisserie Kit：
a) Take off the rotisserie kit (spit rod & forks assembly) from the grill.
b) Loosen and slide the left fork off of the spit rod.
c) Load the meat or poultry onto the spit rod; center the meat as much as possible.
d) Re-install the left fork, then slide the two forks into the meat to secure.
e) Center forks and meat on the spit rod, then tighten down the fork wing nuts
f) If the meat has any loose portions, wrap the meat with butcher’s string (never use nylon or plastic )
g) Re-install the rotisserie kit into your grill, ensuring that the pointed end is fitted into the motor.
4. Tips for ROTISSERIE cooking：
a) When using the rotisserie, the meat should be centered on the spit rod, after which it must
be balanced. To balance the meat, first rotate the cut so that heaviest side is facing downwards.
Next, position the counter balance so that it faces upwards. Secure in place by tightening the counter
balance wing nut. Check the rotisserie function to ensure that the spit is rotating freely. It may be
necessary to adjust the counter balance weight in or out, to achieve a smooth rotation.
b) Place a drip pan on top of the upper flavor shields and position the pan directly beneath the food on the
spit rod. Depending on the flavor you desire, place liquid in the pan such as, water, juices or wine, chop
up onions or add garlic, As the juices fall from the meat they will mix with the liquid and evaporate directly
into the meat, this removes the need for manual basting as this is a self-basting system.
c) Do not let the drip tray dry out.
d) You are now ready to rotisserie cook!
e) Season meat or poultry as desired, then light the rotisserie burner (refer to instructions in this manual).
f) Always use a meat thermometer to determine how well the meat is cooked. Insert the thermometer into
the center of the meat. Do not allow the thermometer to touch a bone as this will not give an accurate
reading on the meat thermometer. When checking poultry, the best location to insert the thermometer is
in the center of the thigh muscle, next to the body.
g) Close lid while cooking.
!WARNING!
Do not leave grill unattended
while cooking! Potential BURN
and FIRE RISK!

Cleaning and Maintenance:
CAUTION:
Keep the grill area clear and free from combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors
and liquids
Ensure that the grill is completely cold before performing any cleaning and maintenance.
Burning off deposits and soiling by turning the main burners on high for about 5 minutes after each
use will keep excessive food residue from building up, but this DOES NOT replace proper cleaning
and maintenance.
1. General Info:
This grill is made of stainless steel. There are many different stainless steel cleaners available.
Always use the mildest cleaning method first, scrubbing in the direction of the grain.
To touch up noticeable scratches in the stainless steel, sand very lightly with very fine emery cloth or
800 grit sandpaper, in the direction of the grain. Specks of grease can gather on the surfaces of the
stainless steel and bake onto the surface, giving the appearance of rust.
Use a cleaning pad (such as ScotchBrite) along with a stainless steel cleaner to remove these stains.
(Rub in the direction of the stainless grain.) Final finish with a stainless steel polish, using a soft, dry
cloth.
2. Grease Management System:
Your grill is equipped with a small grease cup in the back
of the unit. This cup should be emptied & cleaned thoroughly
after each use and before the grill is transported.
Your grill is designed to allow grease to flow along the bottom of the firebox, and collect in both the
grease collecting pan and the small grease cup. (See photos next page).
Both the grease pan and the cup must be cleaned on a regular basis, for the system to work as
designed, and prevent grease fires.
!WARNING!
Clean your grease pan AND grease
cup regularly. Failure to do so may
cause a grease fire, resulting in
injury or property damage!

A small amount of sand can be added to the grease pan and
cup for absorbing accumulated grease.
3. Cooking Grid Cleaning:
If the grids are heavily soiled, turn your main burners on
high for 10 minutes to burn off excess deposits. (Do NOT
run the rotisserie burner with the main burners).
After each grilling session, clean the cooking grids with a stainless or brass wire barbecue brush. The
best method is to clean immediately after cooking, while the grill is still hot. Wear a barbeque mitt to
protect your hand from heat and steam. Dip your brush frequently in tap water and scrub the hot grill.
Steam created by the hot grill assists the cleaning process by softening deposits. The food particles
will fall off and be burn up later. Never immerse ANY hot parts in water.
For final cleaning, the cooking surface can be washed with hot soapy water, utilizing a Scotch Brite
scouring pad for stubborn deposits.
4. Exterior Surface Cleaning:
Use mild dish soap and hot water to clean the outside of the grill.
Do not use any abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, strong degreasers etc., on the exterior of this grill;
this will scratch the stainless finish.
If using the Jackson Stainless Steel Cleaner to remove any surface corrosion be sure to go with the
grain of the finish in order to not make swirls in the stainless steel, this product is mildly abrasive and
is should be applied with a soft cloth.
Specks of grease can adhere to the surfaces of the stainless steel and bake on; this will give the
appearance of rust. Use an abrasive pad with stainless steel cleaner to remove.
Sand heavy scratches lightly with 600 grit wet and dry sandpaper.
Always rinse with clean hot water.
Use a spray polish on stainless steel polish to add shine and help protect the exterior stainless steel
from surface contaminants and any corrosion.
TECH-TIP
Some cleaners may remove the
silk screened labels on the
console; use caution when
cleaning the console.
TECH-TIP
When cleaning heavy soiling, always
polish or scrub in the direction of the
stainless steel grain.
TECH-TIP
Do NOT turn on the rotisserie
burner when the main burners are
being used to clean the grill;
otherwise overheat damage to your
barbecue may result.

5. Interior Firebox Cleaning:
Remove the cooking grid, flame diffuser and the burner from the grill.
Remove excess residue using a brush, scraper and/or cleaning pad.
Spray inside the firebox with oven degreaser and let
stand for 5 minutes.
Use a toothbrush to loosen up grease and food residues.
Wash with soapy water, and rinse with clean hot water.
Wipe out firebox with a paper towel or rag.
Leave lid open to allow the grill to air dry.
6. Main Burner cleaning & maintenance:
Check to ensure that all gas knobs and valves are off.
Remover burners and inspect inner and outer surfaces for contamination and debris.
Clean the exterior burner surface with a stiff stainless steel grill brush.
Make sure all of the burner port holes are free of obstruction by using a large paperclip to poke the
holes out. This is extremely important to prolong the lifespan of the stainless steel burner.
7. Flame diffuser maintenance:
Remove residue and larger pieces of food using a brush, scraper and or cleaning pad after each use.
If desired, cleaners can be used for the final cleaning; then rinse with clean hot water.
This will reduce flare ups and prevent premature break down.
.
Grill Storage:
Clean your grill thoroughly before storage as this will result in greater longevity.
When propane cylinder is left connected, store the grill outdoors and out of reach of children.
Store the grill in a dry indoor location ONLY after the propane cylinder is turned off and removed.
All propane cylinder must be stored outdoors, out of the reach of children. NEVER store the cylinder in a
building, garage or any other enclosed area.
Always store your grill with supplied cover installed.
TECH-TIP
Many cleaners can be caustic, so
for final cleaning use soapy hot
water followed by a rinse with
clean hot water.
!WARNING!
When reinstalling the main burners after cleaning, the
burners must be positioned so that orifices of the valves
are inserted into the center of each burner. Failure to do
so could cause flames to escape around the burner
inlets, which may result in damage or injury.

Trouble Shooting:
A) SPIDER AND INSECT WARNING:
Spiders and insects can nest in the burners during storage: these nests can cause fires inside burners or
beneath the grill. This is potentially hazardous: ALWAYS remove and clean the burners immediately after
bringing your grill out of storage, and regularly thereafter.
B) When to Inspect Your Burners:
Inspect the burners each time you use your grill, or immediately if any of the following conditions occur:
1. Yellow flames with burnt insect odor.
2. Temperature too low or heats unevenly
3. The burners make popping noises.
