General Safety Instructions
1. For Outdoor Use Only.
2. Coyote grills are only intended for residential use and are not intended for commercial use, where anyone
other than the original purchaser (homeowner) would be using and maintaining the grill.
3. NEVER use indoors or in any type of enclosed area, such as a garage, shed or breezeway. Keep clear of
trees and shrubs. The grills are not intended for installation in or on recreational vehicles, portable trailers,
boats or any other moving installation.
4. To reduce the risk of serious or fatal injury from breathing toxic fumes and from explosion and fire as a
result of leaking gas, use only outdoors in an open area with good ventilation. NEVER obstruct the flow of
combustion and ventilation air.
5. Fire Hazard: The area surrounding your new grill should be kept clean and free from flammable liquids
and other combustible materials such as mops, rags or brooms, as well as solvents, cleaning fluids, lighter
fluid and gasoline.
6. NEVER use the grill in windy conditions. If located in a consistently windy area (oceanfront, mountaintop,
etc.), a wind break will be required. Always adhere to the specified clearances listed in this Manual on
page 9.
7. NEVER leave the grill unattended while cooking.
8. Risk of Explosion: NEVER use natural gas in a unit designed for liquid propane gas or vice versa.
9. Do not use lighter fluid in a gas grill.
10. NEVER allow children to use or play near the grill. Keep children and pets away from a hot grill at all times
11. Installation and any repairs or replacement of parts should be performed by a qualified service technician.
If you are not qualified to install, repair, or replace parts of your grill, please retain a qualified professional
contractor or technician to do so.
12. Burn Hazard: NEVER lean over an open grill. Do not place clothing or other flammable material on or near
the grill. Do not wear loose-fitting clothes or long sleeves while using the grill as some fabrics can be highly
flammable and, if ignited, may result in personal injury or death.
13. Burn Hazard: 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. Always use a covered/gloved hand when opening
the grill hood and only do so slowly to allow heat and steam to escape.
14. ALWAYS: have an ABC fire extinguisher accessible.
15. NEVER attempt to extinguish a grease fire with water or other liquids as this may cause a flashback that
could result in personal injury or death.
16. NEVER use aluminum foil to line the grill racks or the drip trays, this can alter airflow for proper
combustion and also build up heat in the control area causing the knobs and cause damage to the igniter.
17. NEVER allow grease or other hot material to drip from the grill onto the valve, hose, or regulator. If that
4
occurs, turn off the fuel supply immediately. After the grill has cooled, determine the cause of the dripping
and correct it. After cleaning the valve, hose and regulator, perform a soapy water leak test before
continuing use. If a leak is discovered, call a qualified technician for service.
18. NEVER 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 death, serious personal injury, or property damage.
19. ALWAYS: Keep any electrical supply cords away from water or heated surfaces. Electrical cords should be
placed away from walkways to avoid tripping hazard.
20. ALWAYS: Keep gas supply lines as short as possible.
21. NEVER move the grill when hot.
22. NEVER use grill while under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
23. NEVER store a spare gas cylinder under or near your grill.
24. Fire Hazard: NEVER grill without the drip tray in place; hot grease could leak downward and produce a fire
or an explosion. Drip tray should be pushed all the way to the rack located just under the grill.
25. Fire Hazard: Grease is extremely flammable. Let hot grease cool down before attempting to handle or
dispose of it. After use and cool-down, the drip tray should be cleaned on a regular basis and kept free of
grease.
26. 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. NEVER attempt to use the grill until the gas has had time to dissipate.
27. Do not use a grill until a leak check has been completed.
28. ALWAYS: Turn off the LP cylinder tank valve when your grill is not in use.
29. ALWAYS: Ensure the control knobs are in the “OFF” position when not in use.
30. ALWAYS: Use only a Ground Fault Interrupter (GFI) protected circuit with this outdoor cooking gas
appliance.
DO NOT RELY JUST ON THIS SAFETY SECTION. USE CAUTION AND COMMON SENSE AT ALL TIMES.
PLEASE READ THE REST OF THIS MANUAL CAREFULLY FOR OTHER IMPORTANT SAFETY WARNINGS.

Locating the Grill
Check your local building codes for the proper method of installation. In the absence of local codes, this unit
should be installed in accordance with the National Fuel Gas Code No. Z223.1-1998 USA or CAN/CGA-B149.1/.2
Natural Gas/Propane Code (Canada) latest edition or the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA No. 70 or the
Canadian Electrical Code CSA C22.1, 1990 or latest version.
• Before installing built-in grills in enclosures, copy all product information such as model number, serial
number and type of grill (e.g. natural gas or LP) and store information in a safe place.
• If the grill is installed by a professional installer or technician, be sure that he or she shows you where your
gas supply shut-off is located. All gas lines must have a shut-off that is readily and easily accessible. If you
smell gas, check for gas leaks immediately. Check only with a soap and water solution. Never check for gas
leaks with an open flame.
Notice: We strongly recommend professional installation of your Coyote grill. These instructions provide the
measurements necessary to construct a masonry structure to house your outdoor gas grill.
IMPORTANT: Gas fittings, regulator, and installer supplied shut-off valves must be easily accessible.
LOCATION OF YOUR GRILL:
Locate the grill only OUTSIDE 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. When in use, the grill will
generate a lot of smoke. When installing your grill, select an outdoor location that will ensure there is adequate
area for the smoke to dissipate IN ORDER TO AVOID INHALATION OF POTENTIALLY TOXIC FUMES.
Ventilation Requirements for Proper Operation of your Coyote Grill
• Ventilation for a gas grill is absolutely mandatory to ensure that your grill performs as intended and to
ensure the safety of you, your family, and guests. Proper ventilation is necessary to allow heat inside
your grill to escape and also to allow any gas that has leaked from a tank or connection to escape
before a buildup of such gas can occur and possibly ignite. Failure to
provide proper ventilation will nullify Coyote’s warranty and will cause a risk of bodily injury or death.
• If you elect to install your grill into an island, the island itself must be ventilated properly. Any such
island must have a minimum of 2 vents (but optimally 4 vents) per cabinet that has any sort of gas
supply or connection. Each vent must be at least 20 sq. in in size and have access to outside/fresh air.
Those vents will allow heat that is trapped inside due to wind to be able to dissipate out of the island
vents. However, if the island is not ventilated properly and the wind is coming from the back, then the
heat will try to escape through the easiest exit, which will most likely be through the bottom of the grill
and front control panel.
• A simple way to think of what is occurring inside your grill is that when your burners are on, they are
emitting a flame that creates the heat to cook your food. This heat must exhaust or escape from the
grill, otherwise you would eventually have a unit that would not only build up intense heat but also
dangerous pressure. This could cause severe damage to not only the grill but any operators or people
or property near-by. The grill itself allows for ventilation mainly through the rear of the unit above the
rear panel but below the top of the hood. However, wind can act as a barrier to ventilation and
exhaust. This blockage of exhaust can cause problems and hazardous conditions. Therefore, great care
must be taken in selecting a location for your grill and in the installation of it into any masonry island
9
or other outdoor structure. This can cause the control panel and knobs to get hot to the touch and
possibly even burn your fingers, not to mention that it can melt all rubber gaskets on the valves and
damage the ignition system to where it will need full replacement.
• Ventilation and typical wind direction and conditions must always be considered when planning your
outdoor cooking island. Just the same as you would plan the layout and measure your indoor kitchen,
you must also do the same for the outdoors; but you cannot forget about Mother Nature and the
effects she can have on your outdoor cooking equipment.
o Coyote Wind Guards: If you do run into a situation where you will have wind coming into the
back of the unit, Coyote offers "Wind Guards" that reduce risks of overheating in the event of
ventilation interference. Our Wind Guards should never be considered as a guaranteed
solution to this problem. They are only intended to help the wind divert up and over the top of
the grill. If the wind is strong, then you can still have problems with the heat being trapped in
the hood. Coyote Wind Guards can be purchased through any of our authorized dealers.
Clearance:
• FROM NON-COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS: Coyote grills can be placed directly on, or adjacent to,
non-combustible materials, subject to ventilation requirements. The hood on a Coyote grill pivots
mainly on the body. If you have a wall or partition behind the unit that would block ventilation, then a
minimum of 7" clearance from the back of the grill to the wall is needed for the purpose of ventilation.
If you do not have a wall or partition blocking the ventilation of the unit, then you only need an extra
2" behind the unit for the hood to open fully. If you wish to use the rotisserie option, you will want to
make sure that you leave adequate space (at least 6") on each side of the grill so that the motor and
rotisserie spit handle will have room on the counter, as these extend past the overall dimensions of
the grill body.
• FROM COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS: Coyote grills must have at least 24" clearance from any combustible
materials (in any direction) for the safety of the homeowner and for any Coyote Warranty to remain in
effect.
o You CANNOT locate the grill under any combustible material without an approved ventilation
system located directly above the unit. To elaborate, Coyote defines an approved ventilation
hood as:
The ventilation hood chosen must be UL certified, produced for outdoor use and must be
installed according to the hood manufacturer’s specifications.
The hood must be installed at least 30" above the top of the cooking surface.
The hood must be at least 6" wider that the grills frame (3" on each side), not just the cooking
surface.
• INSULATED JACKETS AND COMBUSTIBLE CONSTRUCTION: If you elect to use combustible material to
build your grill island AND the grill will be located within 24" of the combustible material, then you
must use the appropriate Coyote insulated jacket. The insulated jacket will act as a barrier to protect
your grill island from the heat and fire of your Coyote grill. If an insulated jacket is not used in a
combustible material island, the warranty on the Coyote grill will be voided immediately and safety
cannot be ensured.
For Built-in Installations
A built-in grill is designed for easy installation into masonry enclosures. For non-combustible applications, the
grill drops into the opening (as shown in cut-out detail drawing - Fig. A) and hangs from the grill body itself. A
bottom deck is not required to support the grill from the bottom. It is also required that:
