injury or property damage. Read the installation, operating and maintenance instructions
thoroughly before installing or servicing this equipment.
Placement and Location
C• al Flame™ grills 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 garage, shed, or breeze-
way. 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 recreational vehicles or boats.
Maintain sufcient distance as to not overheat any •
overhead combustible material such as a patio cov-
er.
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 liquid propane (LP) cylinders 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 information such as model number, serial
number and type of fuel and store information in a
safe place. This information is located on a plate lo-
cated behind the grill and is visible 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.
Your Cal Flame™ grill must be plugged into a per-•
manent, grounded 220V outlet with a dedicated 15A
RCD breaker.
Do not use an extension cord to supply power to •
your Cal Flame™ grill. Such use may result in re,
electrical shock or other personal injury. Do not in-
stall a fuse in the neutral or ground circuit. A fuse in
the neutral or ground circuit may result in an electri-
cal shock hazard. Do not ground this appliance to a
gas supply pipe or hot water pipe. Keep any electri-

cal supply cords and the fuel supply hose away from
any heated surfaces.
To prevent re and smoke damage, remove all pack-•
aging material before operating grill.
Before you start cooking, clean the entire grill thor-•
oughly 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.
Do not use grill for oth• er than intended use.
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 attempt to use the grill
until the gas has had time to dissipate.
Never use the grill if the drip pan is not properly in-•
stalled. 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.

Safety Instructions
Never use the grill or side burner in windy conditions. •
If used in a consistently windy area a windbreak will
be required. Always adhere to the specied clear-
ances listed in this manual.
Never line the grill or side burners with aluminum •
foil.
Do not install or operate your grill unit in such a man-•
ner that the cross ventilation openings are blocked.
Fresh air must be able to pass though installed
vents to safeguard against residual gas accumula-
tion. Failure to allow proper ventilation may cause
re or explosion.
When handling gas line and connectors, do not al-•
low them to come in contact with any metal surfaces
of the grill or cabinet. Do not drop connectors.
Do not use fuel such as charcoal briquettes in gas •
grills.
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 ig-
nite.
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 surface until it has fully cooled.
Never wear loose tting or hanging garments while
using your grill. Fabric may ignite and result in per-
sonal 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.
Use handles or knobs.
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, possibly 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 i• nsects can nest in the burners of
the grill and block the gas and airow to the burner
ports. This creates a dangerous condition that can
result in a re behind the valve panel. Inspect and
clean the burners periodically and follow the guidelines in the Cleaning and Maintenance section of
this manual.
Unless specically recommended in this manual, do •
not repair or replace any part of the grill. A qualied
technician should perform all service. Any repairs
made by a non-Cal Flame approved dealer techni-
cian will void your warranty.
Storage
When your gas grill is not in use, turn off the gas at •
the supply valve.
Storage of a grill indoors is permissible only if the •
gas supply is disconnected.
Precautions Regarding Children
Never leave children unattended in the area where •
the grill is being used. Close supervision of children
is necessary when any appliance is use near chil-
dren.
Do not store items of interest to children around or •
below the grill.
Never allow children to sit or stand on any part of •
the grill.

Installation / Assembly
Most cities and counties require permits for exterior construction and electrical circuits. In addition, some com-
munities have codes requiring residential barriers such
as fencing and/or self-closing gates on property to prevent unsupervised access to the property by children
under the age of ve. Your dealer can provide information on which permits may be required and how to obtain
them prior to the delivery of your equipment.
We recommend the installation, adjustment and service
of your new grill be performed by qualied installers and
service technicians to ensure proper operation and pre-
vent accidents.
IMPORTANT: Cal Flame™ grills are manufactured to operate on liquid propane (LP) gas and cannot be converted. To verify the grill’s operating fuel, check the serial number label in the back of the chassis as you are
looking at the grill from the front. LP will be marked on the operating tab, indicating the proper operating fuel.
Attempting to convert Cal Flame™ grills from one fuel to another may result in serious injury and will void the
warranty coverage.
Always check the rating plate to make sure the gas supply you are hooking up to is the gas type the grill is manufactured for.
When planning your Cal Flame™ grill location, access to
gas lines and power source should be considered. The
location with the shortest gas line run is recommended.
A grounded, dedicated, 220V 15A RCD power source is
required for use of your appliances.
When determining a suitable location, consider factors
such as exposure to wind, proximity to trafc paths, and
windows that open into the home.
Locate barbecue grills only in well-ventilated areas
and only on solid, at foundations (e.g. deck or cement
slab).
Cabinet Cut-out Dimensions
Your Cal Flame™ grill is designed for easy installation into a non-combustible enclosure. The supporting deck or
counter must be at and level. When determining the nal location of your grill, adequate cross ventilation must be
present to prevent gas from being trapped in the event of a leak.
The drawings at right shows the cabinet cut-out dimensions for gas grills and the side burner.

Leak Testing Procedure
Perform a leak test at least once a year whether the gas supply has been disconnected or not. In addition, whenever
the gas supply is connected to the regulator or whenever any part of the gas system is disconnected or replaced,
perform a leak test.
As a safety precaution, remember to always leak test
your grill outdoors in a well-ventilated area. Never
smoke or permit sources of ignition in the area while
doing a leak test. Do not use a ame, such as a lighted
match to test for leaks. Use a solution of soapy water.
