IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE:
Certain Liquid Propane dealers may fill liquid propane cylinders for use in the
grill beyond cylinder filling capacity. This “Overfilling” may create a dangerous
condition.
“Overfilled” tanks can build up excess pressure. As a safety device, the tanks pressure relief valve will
vent propane gas vapor to relieve this excess pressure. This vapor is combustible and therefore can be
ignited. To reduce this danger, you should take the following safety precautions:
1. When you have your tank filled, be sure you tell the supplier to fill it to no more than 3/4 (75%)
of its total capacity.
2. If you own or use an extra spare tank, or have a disconnected tank, you
should NEVER store it near or under the grill/cart unit or heat box, or near
any other ignition or heat source. A metallic sticker with this warning is
attached to the grill to remind you, your family and all others who may
use your BBQ grill of these safety precautions.
Do not remove this sticker.
WAR NING:
Do not try lighting this appliance without reading the
“LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS” section of this manual.
This Grill is for outdoor use only.
WAR NING:
Push and hold the igniter button, turn the selected burner knob 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.
Begin by insuring proper installation and servicing. Follow the installation instructions
provided with this product. Have your grill installed by a qualified technician. Have the installer
show you where the gas supply shut off valve is located so that you know where to shut off 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 qualified technician.
Children should not be left alone or unattended in an area where the grill is being used. Never
allow them to sit, stand or play on or around the grill at any time. When in use,portions of the
grill get hot enough to cause severe burns.
Do not store items of interest to children around or below the grill, in the cart or masonry
enclosure. Never allow children to crawl inside a cart or enclosure.
Never let clothing, pot holders or other flammable materials come in contact with or too close
to any grate, burner or hot surface until it has cooled. Fabric may ignite and result in personal
injury.
Do not heat unopened food containers as a build-up of pressure may cause the container to
burst.
Always use a covered hand when opening the grill lid and only do so slowly to allow heat and
steam to escape.
Never lean over an open grill. When lighting a burner, always pay close attention to what you
are doing. Be certain you are pushing the ignition button when you attempt to light the grill.
SAFETY PRACTICES & PRECAUTIONS
4
For personal safety,wear proper apparel. Loose fitting garments or sleeves should never be worn while
using this appliance. Some synthetic fabrics are highly flammable and should not be worn while cooking. Only certain types of glass, heat-proof glass ceramic, earthenware,or other glazed utensils are suitable for grill use. Use of these types of materials may break with sudden temperature changes. Use
only on low or medium heat settings according to the manufacturer’s directions.
WAR NING:
Spiders and insects can nest in the burners of this and any other grill, and cause
the gas to flow from the front of the burner. This is a very dangerous condition
which can cause a fire to occur behind the valve panel, thereby damaging the
grill components and making it unsafe to operate.
WAR NING:
Keep the area surrounding the grill free from combustible materials, trash, or
combustible fluids and vapors such as gasoline or charcoal lighter fluid. Do
not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air.
WAR NING:
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.

When using the grill, do not touch the grill burner grate or immediate surrounding area as
these areas become extremely hot and could cause burns.
Grease is flammable. Let hot grease cool before attempting to handle it. Avoid letting grease
deposits collect in the drip pan. Clean often.
Do not use aluminum foil to line drip pans or grill racks. This can severely upset combustion air
flow or trap excessive heat in the control area. The result of this can be melted knobs or
damaged ignition components.
SAFETY PRACTICES & PRECAUTIONS
FLAME LIFT

When using the open top burners always use flat bottomed utensils which are large enough to
cover the burner. Adjust the flame so that it heats only the bottom of the pan to avoid ignition
of clothing. Position handles inward away from open edges of the unit to avoid burns
associated with unintentional spillovers. Hold the handle of the pan to prevent movement of
the utensil when turning or stirring food. For proper lighting and performance of the burners
keep the ports clean. It is necessary to clean them periodically for optimum performance.
Clean the grill with caution. Avoid steam burns; do not use a wet sponge or cloth to clean the
grill while it is hot. Some cleaners produce noxious fumes or can ignite if applied to a hot
surface.
Be sure all grill controls are turned off and the grill is cool before using any type of aerosol
cleaner on or around the grill. The chemical that produces the spraying action could, in the
presence of heat, ignite or cause metal parts to corrode.
Do not use the grill for cooking excessively fatty meats or products which promote flare-ups.
Never grill without the drip pan and grease tray in place and pushed all the way to the back of
the grill. Without it hot grease could leak downward and produce a fire or explosion hazard.
Do not operate the grill under unprotected combustible construction. Use only in well
ventilated areas. Do not use in buildings, garages, sheds, breezeway or other such enclosed
areas. This unit is for outdoor use only.
If a cart unit is stored indoors ensure that it is cool, fold the side shelf down, then push, never
pull, the grill. If LP,the cylinder must be unhooked and the LP cylinder stored outside in a well
ventilated area, out of reach of children.
Do not use charcoal in the grill.
Keep any electrical supply cord, or the rotisserie motor cord away from the heated areas of the
grill and water (pools, fountains, puddles).
Never use a dented or rusty LP tank. Keep the ventilation openings of the cylinder enclosure
free and clear from debris.
Use only dry potholders; moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may cause burns from
steam. Do not use a towel or bulky cloth in place of potholders. Do not let potholders touch
hot portions of the grill or burner grate.

Verify the type of gas supply to be used, either
natural or LP, and make sure the marking on the
appliance rating plate agrees with that of the
supply. The rating plate is located on the inside
back wall of the Grill. Never connect an
unregulated gas line to the appliance.
An installer supplied gas shut-off valve must be
installed in an easily accessible location. All
installer supplied parts must conform to local
codes, or in the absence of local codes, with the
National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 or the
Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.1, and the
National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1 or
CAN/CGA-B149.1 Natural Gas Installation Code
or CAN/CGA-B149.2 Propane Installation Code.
All pipe sealants must be an approved type and
resistant to the actions of LP gases. Never use
pipe sealant on flare fittings. All gas connections should be made by a qualified technician and in
accordance with local codes and ordinances. In the absence of local codes, the installation must
comply with the national fuel gas code ANSI Z223.1. Gas conversion kits are available from the factory.
When ordering gas conversion kits have the model number, and the type of gas (natural or LP) from
your grill.
TOTAL GAS CONSUMPTION OF THE GRILL WITH ALL BURNERS ON HI:
BGB30-BQAR - 50,0 00 Btu/hr
The appliance and its individual shut off 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.) The
appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff 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.). The installation of this appliance must conform with local codes or, in the
absence of local codes, with the national fuel gas code, ANSI Z223.1. Installation in Canada must be in
accordance with the Standard CAN/CGA-B149.2 Propane Installation Code and local codes.
NATURAL GAS HOOK UP:
(This type of connection should be performed by a certified or
licensed technician only.)
Connection: 1/2" NPT male with 3/8" flare adapter. Operating pressure: 4.0" W.C.
Supply pressure: 5" to 14" water column. If in excess of 14" W.C. a step down regulator is required.
Check with your local gas utility company or with local codes for instructions on installing gas supply
lines. Be sure to check on type and size of run, and how deep to bury the line. If the gas line is too
small, the grill will not function properly. Any joint sealant used must be an approved type and be
resistive to the actions of LP gases.
TO HOOK-UP THE FITTINGS SUPPLIED WITH THE GRILL:
Assemble as shown (Fig.01). Use threading compound on male threads only. Do not use threading
compound on the male end of the 1/2 NPT to 3/8 flare adapter. Use a second pipe wrench to hold the
grill inlet pipe to avoid shifting any internal gas lines of the grill. Ensure that the regulator arrow points
in the direction of gas flow towards the unit,away from the supply. Do not forget to place the installer
supplied gas valve in an accessible location.

LP GAS HOOK UP (TYPE 1 OR QCC1 REGULATOR):
Grills orificed for use with LP gas come equipped with a high capacity hose/regulator assembly for
connection to a standard 20 lb. LP cylinder (Type 1). The LP tank is not included.
Connection: 1/2" NPT male with a 3/8" Flare adapter (included). LP Hose with a quick disconnect and
fittings are included. Operating pressure: 10.0" W.C.
To connect the LP regulator/hose assembly to the tank/valve assembly, first make sure the main valve on
the tank is completely closed. Although the flow of gas is stopped when the Type 1 system is disconnected as part of of its safety feature, you should always turn off the LP tank main valve (Fig.02) after 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 off and wait 5 minutes before attempting to light the
burners.
To disconnect the coupler, first make sure the main tank valve is turned off. Grasp the coupler and turn
counter clockwise. The 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 filling station should be equipped with the proper
equipment to fill your tank.
LP TANK REQUIREMENTS:
A dented or rusty LP tank may be hazardous and should be checked by your LP supplier. Never use a
cylinder with a damaged valve. Always check for leaks after every LP tank change. The LP gas cylinder must be
constructed and marked in accordance with the specifications for LP gas cylinders of the U.S. Department of
Transportation (DOT or CAN/CSA-B339) and designed for use with a Type 1 system only. Do not change the
regulator/hose assembly from that supplied with the unit or attempt to use a Type 1 equipped regulator/hose
assembly with a standard 510 POL tank/valve assembly. The cylinder must be provided with a shut-off valve
terminating in an LP gas supply cylinder valve outlet specified, as applicable, for connection Type 1. If the
appliance is stored indoors,the cylinder must be disconnected and removed from the appliance. Cylinders
must be stored outdoors in a well-ventilated area out of the reach of children.
NOTE:When an LP unit is directly attached into an LP house system, the step down regulator MUST be
used to reduce the supply pressure to a max. 14”W.C.and min. 11” W.C. to the grill regulator.

INSULATED JACKET:
Do not install the Grill under overhead unprotected combustible construction. If the Grill is to be
placed into a combustible enclosure use only the DCS insulated jacket which has specifically been
designed and tested for this purpose and is available from your dealer.
Location:
When determining a suitable location take into account concerns such as exposure to wind,proximity
to traffic paths and keeping any gas or electrical supply lines as short as possible. Locate the grill only
in a well ventilated area. 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 smoke. Ensure there is adequate area
for it to dissipate.
IMPORTANT :
Gas fittings, regulator, and installer supplied shut-off valves must be easily
accessible.
Clearances to Combustible Construction:
A Minimum of 12" from the sides and a minimum of 12" from the back must be maintained from the
Grill above and below the cooking surface to adjacent vertical combustible construction. (Fig. 03) Do
not install under unprotected combustible construction.
Clearances to Non-Combustible Construction:
A minimum of 3" clearance from the back of the grill to non-combustible construction is required for
the purpose of allowing the lid to open fully. It is desirable to allow at least 6" side clearance to noncombustible 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. The Grill can be placed directly adjacent
to non-combustible construction below the cooking surface. (Fig.03)
WARNING :
Failure to maintain required clearances creates a fire hazard that may result in
property damage or serious personal injury.

IMPORTANT:
It is recommended that a minimum of 10 sq. inches of ventilation opening be
provided for both the left and right sides, as well as the back of enclosure (fig.
3A). In order to safely dissipate unburned gas vapors in the event of a gas
supply leak.
WAR NING:
Note specific built in enclosure ventilation requirements. See text and fig 3A.
GENERAL
The Grill is designed for easy placement into masonry enclosures. For non-combustible applications
the grill drops into the opening shown in (Fig. 04) and hangs from its side flanges. A deck is not
required to support it from the bottom. When using the insulated jacket in a combustible enclosure
application, see the bottom of Fig. 04. The jacket assembly must be supported from the bottom by a
ledge on each side or a solid deck beneath the entire grill or insulated jacket.
Review the detail drawing shown (Fig. 04) and take into account the provisions shown for gas line
hook-up clearance in the right rear corner. The supporting ledges or deck must be level and flat. The
counter should also be level.
