SAFE USE & MAINTENANCE OF PROPANE GAS CYLINDERS

IMPORTANT FOR YOUR SAFETY

READ AND FOLLOW ALL WARNINGS PROVIDED WITH THE PROPANE-GAS CYLINDER.

When operating this appliance with a propane-gas cylinder, these instructions and warnings MUST be observed.

FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT IN A SERIOUS FIRE OR EXPLOSION.

CYLINDER/CONNECTOR REQUIREMENTS

a. Propane-gas cylinders, valves, and hoses must be

maintained in good condition and must be replaced if
there is visible damage to either the cylinder or valve. If the
hose is cut or shows excessive abrasion or wear, it must
be replaced before using the gas appliance (see e.).

b. This unit, when used with a cylinder, should be connected

to a standard 5-gallon (20 lb.) propane-gas cylinder
equipped with an OPD (Overfi ll Prevention Device).
The OPD has been required on all cylinders sold since
October 1,1998, to prevent overfi lling.

c. Cylinder dimensions should be approximately 12" (30.5

cm) in diameter and 18" (45.7 cm) high. Cylinders must
be constructed and marked in accordance with the

Specifi cations for Propane Gas Cylinders of the U.S.

Important: Before using the unit, and after each time the

cylinder is removed and reattached, check
the hose for wear (see a.) and check all
connections for leaks. Turn off the unit valves
and open the main cylinder valve, then check
connections with soapy water. Repair any
leaks before lighting the unit.

CAUTION: Always turn the propane cylinder main valve

off after each use, and before moving the unit
and cylinder or disconnecting the coupling.
This valve must remain closed and the
cylinder disconnected while the appliance
is not in use, even though the gas fl ow is
stopped by a safety feature when the coupler
is disconnected.

Carefully inspect the hose assembly each time before the
gas is turned on. A cracked or frayed hose must be replaced
immediately.

If the appliance is stored indoors, the cylinder must be
disconnected and removed. Disconnected

cylinders must be

stored outdoors, out of the reach of children, with threaded
valve plugs tightly installed, and must not be stored in a

building, garage, or any other enclosed area.

FOR YOUR SAFETY

a. DO NOT store a spare propane-gas cylinder under or

near this appliance.

FOR YOUR SAFETY, you must provide the openings listed below for drainage, replacement air, and cross-ventilation
of any storage area exposed to possible leakage from gas connections, the unit, or propane cylinders.

One side of the enclosure can be left completely open to the outside, OR 4 ventilation openings must be created:
Two of the openings are to be at the cylinder valve level (approx. 16” above the fl oor) and on opposite walls of the

enclosure. 2 more openings must be at the fl oor level (approx. 5” above the fl oor) and on opposite sides of the
enclosure. Each opening must have a minimum of 10 sq. in. of free area. To achieve the proper ventilation, you
may drill a series of holes, omit the grout from masonry joints, or replace a brick with a hardware cloth screen. If
the fl oor in the cabinet is raised and the space beneath the cabinet is open to the outside, the lower ventilation
openings may be in the fl oor.

Consult your gas supplier for ventilation and regulator requirements when connecting to a household propane supply.

PLANNING FOR INSTALLATION

This barbecue is designed for outdoor use only.
DO NOT use this unit under unprotected fl ammable

surfaces. DO NOT use this appliance inside a building,
garage, or any other covered area (see EXHAUST
REMOVAL). DO NOT use this barbecue in or on a
recreational vehicle or boat.

WARNING

Built-in models must be installed in masonry or other type of
fi reproof enclosure, unless an insulating liner is purchased
from the manufacturer. The unit alone is not insulated, and
therefore must be installed with 18" (45.7 cm) of side, front,
and back clearance from unprotected combustible materials,

such as wood, plastic, or stucco with wood framing.

This barbecue must be installed so that it can be removed in
the event service should be necessary. Any protrusion into the
barbecue enclosure from either side, which is less than 14"
from the countertop, may obstruct the frame and prevent the
unit from dropping into place (see GAS SUPPLY PLUMBING
REQUIREMENTS)

EXHAUST REMOVAL

If installed under a patio roof, the cooking grid area should
be fully covered by a chimney and exhaust hood. An exhaust
fan with a rating of at least 1,000 CFM (472 liters per second)
is necessary to effi ciently remove smoke and other cooking
by-products from the covered area. This barbecue shall not be
used under unprotected overhead combustible construction.
Do not install in a fully enclosed area of any kind.

GAS SUPPLY PLUMBING REQUIREMENTS

1

Rigid

/2" (1.3 cm) black steel pipe is required to conduct the
gas supply into the barbecue enclosure for connection to
the unit. Where required, use pipe joint compound which is
resistant to all gases should be applied to all male fi ttings and
all joints tightened securely. Do not use pipe joint compound
to connect fl are fi ttings.

The pipe should terminate near the right rear of the enclosure,
no more than 10" (25.4 cm) from the counter top. Installation
will be simplifi ed if the pipe enters the enclosure vertically
from the bottom and no more than 6" (15.2 cm) from the right
side or rear wall (Fig. 8-1).

If the pipe does not come up against the right wall, it can
easily be run along the enclosure fl oor and turned up to rise
within 10" (25.4 cm) of the counter top, against right wall
(leaving space only to connect fi ttings,

Fig. 8-2).

CAUTION: An external valve in the gas line is

necessary for safety when the barbecue is
not in use. It also provides for convenient
maintenance and repair. A removable key
is recommended.

Perform the following checks before installing the
barbecue:

1. CHECK FUEL ORIFICES FOR PROPER SIZE
Fire Magic barbecues are equipped with orifi ces for

natural gas unless otherwise indicated. For use with
propane gas, smaller orifi ces must be installed to
avoid hazardous overheating.

2. IF YOU ARE NOT SURE YOU HAVE THE CORRECT
BARBECUE BURNER ORIFICE SIZE

a. Remove the cooking grids and fl avor grid from the

barbecue, and where fi tted, the oven/hood.

INSTALLATION

b. If the gas supply has been connected, make sure the

burner valve is in the OFF position. Then pull the knobs
from their stems. Lift the drop-in top and remove it from
the barbecue. You will need to pull up on the corners to
release the top from spring clips.

c. Check the orifi ce size by removing the burner clips

and pulling the burner away from the orifi ce. The drill
size is stamped on the face of each orifi ce. Be sure
not to lose the air shutter or air shutter spring, which
may become detached when the burner is removed.
(Refer to Table 1 for correct orifi ce size).

below (

3. CONNECT THE GAS SUPPLY TO BARBECUE
a. A C.S.A. approved stainless steel fl ex connector will

be needed to bring the gas supply from the gas line
stub to the valve manifold. A 1/2" (1.3 cm) x 24" (61
cm) fl ex stainless steel connector is suitable for most
installations. A 1/2" (1.3 cm) female fl are fi tting is required
to connect to the unit. ONLY LISTED STAINLESS
STEEL CONNECTORS should be used to connect the
barbecue to the gas line inside the enclosure.

CAUTION: Use only stainless steel fl ex connectors that

WARNING: A rubber or plastic connector will rupture or leak,

b. Verify that the gas supply is turned off. Then connect

the 1/2" (1.27 cm) pipe adapter fi tting supplied with the
stainless steel fl ex connector to the gas supply stub.
Use pipe joint compound that is resistant to all gasses
on the male pipe fi tting and tighten securely. Do not
use pipe joint compound to connect the fl are fi ttings.

c. Lower the barbecue into place, making sure not to

pinch or kink the gas connector. The unit will rest on
the counter (Fig. 9-2).

d. Connect the fl ex connector to the fl are fi tting on the

f. Refer to the AIR SHUTTER ADJUSTMENT section

before replacing barbecue control panel and knobs.

4. INSTALL THE FLAVOR GRID
a. Place the fl avor grid directly on the burners. Make

sure the legs (on the underside) of the grid rests on
the burners (Fig. 9-3), centering the grid over the
burners with the open side up. This allows heat from
the burners to be evenly distributed throughout the
cooking area. The fl avor grid heats and cools quickly,
making the Fire Magic barbecue very responsive to
the changes you specify in grill temperature.

The fl avor grid is made of stainless steel and is rust resistant.
It may be cleaned with standard oven cleaners.

DRIP COLLECTOR INSTALLATION

The drip collector is located below the manifold
(see Parts List). To gain access to this area in
order to empty or change the drip receptacle,
a small access door in the barbecue island or
enclosure is required.

To install the drip collector, place the hooks of the
collector tray into the slots (located at the bottom
of the barbecue, below the manifold). Press down
to fasten securely. Place the drip receptacle on
the tray below the drip chute (Fig. 9-4).

CHECKING AND CONVERTING GAS TYPE

This unit comes from the factory confi gured for one type
of gas, as marked on the label located behind the control
panel, or on the interior of the unit’s enclosure.

Converting this unit to burn a different type of gas
requires a conversion kit (contact your dealer for
details). The professional installer who converts this
unit to burn a different gas must perform the following
functions:

1. Change brass gas orifi ces (included at original shipping)

on each burner to match the new gas type (see
PRODUCT DATA TABLE, Table 1).

2. Switch the convertible gas regulator (if equipped) to
match the new gas type (see section below).

3. Plumb the unit as appropriate for the new gas supply.

4. Apply the label for the new gas (included at original

shipping) over the old gas information found on your
unit.

ORIFICES ARE INSTALLED, OR IF AN ORIFICE
CHANGE IS NECESSARY, REFER TO THE FOLLOWING
INSTRUCTIONS.

CAUTION: Make sure the unit is at a safe temperature

and isolated from gas and electrical
supplies before beginning the tasks
outlined below.

Note: The cooler the unit, the greater the tolerances

between the stainless-steel parts, and therefore
the easier to disassemble and reassemble
parts of the unit.

CAUTION: For your safety, exercise caution and

use adequate hand protection (such as
gloves) when handling potentially sharp
sheet-metal parts.

CHECKING AND CONVERTING THE REGULATOR

Regulator: note cap on top

STEP 1:

Unscrew and remove the cap from the

BARBECUE SAFETY INFORMATION & MAINTENANCE

Each time you use the barbecue, make sure that:

1. The area around the barbecue is clear of fl ammable

vapors, liquids, and substances such as gasoline,
yard debris, wood, etc.

2. There is no blockage of the airfl ow through the vent

space located below the face of the unit.

3. When using propane gas:
a. The special ventilation openings in the enclosure

should be kept free and clear of debris
(see PLANNING THE LOCATION OF THE
BARBECUE).

b. If connected to a propane cylinder, the rubber

hose attached to the regulator should be carefully
inspected before each use.

c. The propane cylinder, regulator, and rubber hose should

be installed in a location not subject to heating above
125° F (51° C).

4. The burner fl ames burn evenly along both sides

of each burner with a steady flame, which is
mostly blue. (Refer to section on AIR SHUTTER
ADJUSTMENT.) A proper fl ame pattern will ensure
safe operation and optimal performance. Adjust
the air shutter as needed. If burner fl ames are not
normal, check the orifi ce and burner for insects or
insect nests.

DRIP COLLECTION SYSTEM

The drip collector in this barbecue is part of the unit’s
main frame and is located below the burners. The drip
collector has slots that will allow excess drippings to
fall through during cooking, while separating the fi rebox
from the drip tray. Clean the drip tray after each use.

The drip collector allows you to brush or scrape residue
from the barbecue’s inner liner into the drip tray.
Following the manufacturers instructions and regular
cleaning of the barbecue’s interior with oven cleaner,
will help to prevent grease fi res.

Periodically check the burners to make sure they are
clear of debris. Properly adjusted burner fl ames burn
evenly along both sides of each burner with a steady
fl ame (mostly blue). If burner fl ames are not normal,
check the orifi ce and burner for insects or insect nests.
(See section on CHECKING/CONVERTING THE
BURNER ORIFICES for instructions on burner removal
and replacement.)

Check the burner ports at least annually for blockage by
removing the burner (see orifi ce changing instructions)
and visually inspect the gas intake tube for insects
and nests. A clogged tube can lead to a fi re beneath
the grill.

5. The inline gas valve or gas cylinder valve is always

shut OFF when the barbecue is not in use.

6. The drip collector hole is clear and unobstructed.

Excessive grease deposits can result in a grease
fi re.

7. The barbecue is free and clear from combustible

materials, gasoline, and other fl ammable vapors
and liquids.

WARNING

NEVER cover the entire cooking or grill surface with griddles or pans. Overheating will occur and

burners will not perform properly when combustion heat is trapped below the cooking surface.

CAUTION: NEVER spray water on a hot gas unit.

The grill serial identifi cation number is located on the underside of the drip tray handle. It

is recommended that the drip tray fi rst be removed and cleaned / emptied of its contents,

then turned over to view.

ACCESSORIES

GRILL BRUSH (optional)

Purchase a Fire Magic® stainless-steel grill brush (sold
separately) to keep your grill cleaner. It comes with
scraper for large particles and a replaceable head with
brass bristles for overall cleaning.

Fig. 16-1

Grill brush with replacement head

THE COOKING GRID LIFTER

Hold the grid lifter by gripping the center section with the
prongs pointing down (use an oven mitt or heavy glove
if the grill is hot). Insert the notched end of the grid lifter
into the cooking grid, in front of the midway point (front
to back; Fig. 16-3), and central (left to right; Fig. 16-4).
Twist the grill lifter (clockwise or counterclockwise) so
the handle is parallel to the grill rods. This “seats” the
spiked end of the grid lifter between two rods, enabling
you to safely lift out the grid. Lift slowly and adjust the
grid lifter, if necessary, for balance.

WARMING RACK (if equipped)

The warming rack (Fig. 16-2) is packed separately.

To install the warming rack, lift the front of the rack up
slightly and insert the rack hangers into the two holes
in the back of the inner oven hood. Then lower the front
of the rack into a level position to lock the rack in place.

To remove the warming rack, lift up on the front of the
rack until the rack hangers pull free from their supporting
holes.

Note: Removing the warming rack before using the

rotisserie will leave more clearance for the
meat being cooked. (if applicable)

Fig. 16-2 Warming rack in place inside oven

THE DRIP TRAY

The drip collection system allows you to brush or scrape
excess dried residue from the grilling area directly into
the drip tray (see PARTS LIST for drip tray location).

THE FLAVOR GRID(S)

Place each fl avor grid directly over a burner or burner
pair. Center each grid over the burner, oriented as
shown in Fig. 16-5.

Note: This allows heat from the burners to be evenly

distributed throughout the cooking area. The
fl avor grids heat and cool quickly, making the
grill very responsive to changes in heat from
the burners.

CARE & CLEANING

APPLIANCE MUST BE COMPLETELY COOL WHEN
CLEANING. DO NOT SPRAY ANY CLEANER OR
LIQUIDS ON THE APPLIANCE WHEN HOT.

The appliance must be cleaned as often as once a month
(depending on use) to prevent grease build-up and other
food deposits.

INTERIOR

THE BURNER PORTS MUST BE KEPT CLEAN TO
ENSURE PROPER IGNITION AND OPERATION.

Wipe with grain

Remove the burner (see orifi ce changing instructions)
and clean the ports and slots as required. Also inspect
and clean the burner inlet for insects and nests. A clogged
burner can lead to a fi re in the bottom of the appliance.

The inside of the appliance may be cleaned periodically
with oven cleaner if desired. Follow the oven cleaner
instructions for proper use.

Be careful not to get oven cleaner on the outside surface
of the appliance as it can permanently damage the fi nish.

EXTERIOR

Stainless steel surfaces when exposed to temperatures
produced by the grilling process will change color. The
stainless steel will change color from silver to brown
and blue. This can be removed by using stainless steel
cleaner.

Clean your appliance by fi rst using grill cleaner to remove
grease and dirt. Always wipe with the grain (See Fig.
17-1). Next, use stainless steel cleaner to restore the
stainless steel color (Note: not for mirror fi nish). Finish
by wiping your appliance down using polish wipes. To

clean any mirror fi nish (if applicable), use a quality
brand glass cleaner only, not any of the cleaners
mentioned above.

If your appliance is installed in a seaside (salt air) or
poolside (chlorine) location, it will be more susceptible
to corrosion and must be maintained/cleaned more
frequently. Do not store chemicals (such as chlorine or
fertilizer) near your stainless steel appliance.

Fig. 17-1 - Wipe with grain

PROTECTING YOUR APPLIANCE FROM THE
WEATHER

An optional cover will protect your appliance when not
in use. (Allow to cool before covering.)

Please specify the model number and serial number
of your appliance when ordering a cover.

IMPORTANT

IN THE EVENT OF A GREASE FIRE, IMMEDIATELY
SHUT OFF THE MAIN GAS VALVE TO THE GRILL.
KEEP THE LID OPEN AND ALLOW THE FIRE TO
EXTINGUISH ITSELF. A THOROUGH INSPECTION
BY A TRAINED SERVICE TECHNICIAN SHOULD
BE CONDUCTED BEFORE FUTURE USE OF YOUR
GRILL. THE SERVICE TECHNICIAN WILL CHECK
THE SYSTEM FOR GAS LEAKS AND WILL CHECK
ALL ELECTRICAL WIRING FOR DAMAGE. ALL GAS
LEAKS AND WIRING MUST BE REPAIRED PRIOR
TO FUTURE USE.

Due to the nature of stainless steel, surface iron oxide
deposits may appear. Do not be alarmed – these deposits
are removable with stainless steel cleaner through prompt
and periodic maintenance. If not attended to promptly,
permanent pitting may occur.

By following these recommendations, you will enjoy the
beauty and convenience of your appliance for many years
to come.
