AVERTISSEMENTS

Avertissements généraux :

• Ce barbecue est pour ultilisation à l’extérieur seulement. Si l’appareil est entreposé à l’intérieur,
enlever les bouteilles et les laisser à l’extérieur.

• Ne pas ranger le gril immédiatement aprés l’avoir utilisé. le laisser refroidir avant de le déplacer
ou de la ranger. Le non respect de cette mesure de sécurité pourrait entraîner un incendie
causant des dommages à la propriété, des blessures ou la mort.

• Ne pas utiliser cet appareil sous une surface combustible.

• Ne pas utiliser cet appareil sous un auvent. Le non respect de cette mesure de sécurité pourrait
entraîner un incendie ou des blessures.

• Dégagement minimal entre les parois latérales et l’arriére de l’appareil et la construction
combustible (45.7 cm à partir des parois latérales et 45.7cm à partir de l’arriére).

• Le régulareur de pression de gaz prévu avec cet appareil de cuisson à gaz pour l’extérieur
doit être utilisé. Ce régulateur est réglé pour une pression de sortie de 5 pouces de colonne
de l’eau pour le gaz naturel, et 10 pouces pour le propane.

• LE RÉGULATEUR INCLUS D’APPAREILS EST ÉVALUÉ POUR LE MAXIMUM DE 1/2 (LIVRES
PAR POUCE CARRÉ). SI VOTRE OFFRE DE GAZ EST 1/2 PLUS GRAND QUE (LIVRES

BARBECUE. VOIR LA SECTION DE CONDITIONS D’OFFRE DE GAZ POUR LA PRESSION
APPROPRIÉE D’OFFRE DE GAZ.

• Ne couvrez jamais la surface entière de cuisine ou de gril de gauffreuses ou de casseroles.
La surchauffe se produira et les brûleurs ne seront pas très performants quand la chaleur de
combustion est emprisonnée au-dessous de la surface à cuire.

• Ne pulvérisez jamais l’eau sur une unité chaude de gaz, comme ceci peut endommager des
composants de porcelaine ou de fer de fonte.

Avertissements de propane :

• Une fuite de GPL peut causer une incendie ou une explosion si enfl ammée entraînant des
blessures corporelles graves ou la mort.

• Communiquez avec le fournisseur de GPL pour les réparations ou pour disposer de qules

PLANNING FOR INSTALLATION OF YOUR REGAL I DROP-IN SERIES BARBECUE

WHERE TO INSTALL YOUR GAS BARBECUE

Fire Magic barbecues are designed for outdoor use
only.

WARNING

Built-in models must be installed in masonry or other
type of fi reproof enclosure, unless an insulating liner is
purchased from the manufacturor. 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.

Do not install this unit under unprotected fl ammable
surfaces. Do not install or use this appliance inside a
building, garage, or any other enclosed area, including
recreational vehicles and/or boats.

In order to install the unit within combustible materials
you must purchase and utilize the Regal drop-in
insulation liner kit. See instructions received with
your liner for directions on how to install.

This is a drop-in type unit designed to fi t into countertop
enclosures. The top panel of the unit is removable for gas
hookup, servicing and burner adjustment.

Note: This unit should be installed so that it can be

removed at a later date if factory service is
required. Any protrusion into the barbecue
enclosure may obstruct the frame and prevent
the unit from dropping into place (see GAS
SUPPLY PLUMBING REQUIREMENTS).

INSURING PROPER COMBUSTION AIR AND
VENTILATION

You must maintain proper air fl ow for your Fire Magic
barbecue to perform as it was designed (as shown, below,

Fig. 8-1). If airfl ow is blocked in any way, overheating

in
and poor combustion will result. Make sure not to block
the air inlet around the inside edges of the top panel.

cylinder level

Cylinder Level

EXHAUST REMOVAL

If installed under a patio roof, the grill area should
be fully covered by a chimney and exhaust hood. An
exhaust fan with a rating of up to 1000 CFM (472 liters
per second) or more may be necessary to effi ciently
remove smoke and other cooking by-products from the
covered area. Installation in fully-enclosed patio areas
is not recommended.

ELECTRICAL OUTLETS

All electrical outlets in the vicinity of the barbecue must
be properly grounded.

Note: Keep electrical supply cords away from all

heated surfaces.

GAS SUPPLY PLUMBING REQUIREMENTS

When natural gas is to be used, rigid 1/2" (1.3 cm) or 3/4"
(.75 cm) black steel pipe, or local code approved pipe for
temperatures up to 800°F (427°C), is required to conduct
the gas supply into the enclosure opening for connection
to the unit.

Note: An external valve (with a removable key) in

the gas line is necessary for safety when
your barbecue is not in use. It also provides
for convenient maintenance and repair.

Apply only joint compounds that are resistant to all
gasses on all male pipe fi ttings. Make sure to tighten
every joint securely. Do not use pipe joint compound to
connect fl are fi ttings. The gas supply pipe should enter
from the fl oor, or from the back or side wall in the right
rear corner of the barbecue enclosure, behind the valve
control zone. This pipe should terminate with a 1/2" (1.3
cm) male pipe thread, situated within 12" (30.5 cm) of
the countertop and no more than 6" (15.24 cm) from
the back and side walls.

GAS SUPPLY AND MANIFOLD PRESSURES:

For natural gas - normal 7" (17.78 cm) water column
(w.c.),

For propane gas - normal 11" w.c., minimum 10" (25.4 cm),
maximum 13" (33 cm).

minimum 5" (12.7 cm), maximum 10 1/2" (26.7 cm).
