SAFETY PRACTICES & PRECAUTIONS
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” cylinders can build up excess pressure. As a safety device, the cylinder pressure relief valve will vent propane gas vapour to relieve this excess pressure. This vapour is combustible and therefore can be ignited. To reduce this danger, you should take the following safety precautions:
1.
When you have your cylinder 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 a spare cylinder, or have a disconnected cylinder, you should NEVER store
it near or under the grill/cart unit or heat box, or near any other ignition or heat source. A sticker with this warning is provided with the grill to remind you, your family and all others who may use your BBQ grill of these safety precautions. Install this sticker close to your barbeque grill in a visible location that is not exposed to the elements or extreme heat.
3. Do not store a full cylinder in direct sunlight.
WARNING!
Sticker
Do not try lighting this appliance without reading the “LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS” section of this manual. This grill is for outdoor use only.
WARNING!
Push and hold the igniter button, turn the selected burner knob to “SEAR”. 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.
WARNING:IMPORTANT!
Before each use, inspect the gas supply piping or hose prior to turning the gas “on”. If there is evidence of cuts, wear, or abrasion, it must be replaced prior to use.
Never leave the appliance unattended during use.
This grill must be installed according to these
instructions and in compliance with the require­ments of AS/NZS 5601.1:2010, local authority, gas, electricity, and any other statutory regulations. Failure to install the product correctly could in­validate any warranty or liability claims.
Refer to AS/NZS 5601.1:2010 for pipe sizing de-
tails.
Begin by ensuring proper installation and servic-
ing. Follow the installation instructions within this manual. Have your grill installed by a quali­fied installer. Have the installer show you where
• Always follow lighting instructions.
• Hood must be opened before lighting a grill burner or the rotisserie burner.
• Check for gas leaks before lighting.
• Never lean over an open grill when lighting. Serious burns may result.
the gas supply shut-off valve is located so that you know where and how 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 gas fitter.
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 attach or disconnect an LPG cylinder, or move or alter gas fittings when the grill is in operation or is hot.
Use caution when closing the hood, especially if there are children around. Check that the path of the hood is
clear, as its weight could cause injury to hands or fingers caught under it.
Clean and perform general maintenance on the grill twice a year. Watch for corrosion, cracks, or insect activity.
Have a qualified gas fitter check the regulator, hoses, burner ports, air shutter, and venturi/valve section carefully. Always turn off gas at the source (cylinder or supply line) prior to inspecting parts.

WARNING
• Hot surfaces surrounding grill grates could cause serious burns.
• Always leave at least 31 cm clearance to combustibles around the grill.
• Never store a spare LPG cylinder under or near this unit.
• Never fill the tank beyond 3/4 full. A fire causing death or serious injury may occur.
SAFETY PRACTICES & PRECAUTIONS
After a period of storage or non-use (such as over the winter), the gas grill should be checked for gas leaks, dete-
rioration, proper assembly, and burner obstructions before using.
Never let clothing, pot holders or other flammable materials come in contact with or get 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 hood 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 cer-
tain you are pushing the ignition button when you attempt to light the grill.
After lighting burners, make sure burners are operating normally (see section ‘Burner adjustment’).
When using the grill, do not touch the grill, 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 aluminium foil to line drip pans or grill grates or radiants. 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.
The prongs of the rotisserie forks are very sharp. Take care when unpacking, assembling, or handling the rotis-
serie to avoid injury.
Do not operate with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in any
manner. Contact the manufacturer for repair.
Do not let the cord hang over the edge of a table or touch hot surfaces.
Do not use an outdoor cooking appliance for purposes other than intended.
This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction con­cerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.

SAFETY PRACTICES & PRECAUTIONS
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.
WARNING!
Spiders and insects can nest in the grill burners , causing gas not to flow through the burner. The gas will flow from the front of the burner into the control panel. 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.
WARNING!
Keep the area surrounding the grill free from combustible materials, trash, or combustible fluids and vapours such as gasoline or charcoal lighter fluid. Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air.
WARNING!
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 as defined in the “INSTALLATION” section of this manual.

SAFETY PRACTICES & PRECAUTIONS
When using the side burners always use flat bottomed pans which are large enough to cover the side 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 it when turning or stirring food. For proper lighting and performance of the burners keep the ports clean. It is necessary to clean periodically for optimum performance.
This professional outdoor grill delivers extreme heat. Take care during and after use, as all surfaces may be hot.
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 the drip pan 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 un protected combustible construction. Use only in well ventilated areas. Do not
use in buildings, garages, sheds, breezeway, covered structure or other such enclosed areas. This unit is for out­door use only. Always ensure adequate ventilation for the grill. Never block any ventilation openings.
If a cart unit is stored indoors, ensure that it is cool, fold the side shelf down, then push, never pull, the grill and
never push or pull on the side shelves. If LPG, the cylinder must be unhooked and the LPG cylinder stored outside in a well ventilated area, out of reach of children.
If grill is mounted on a mobile cart: do not remove castor wheels from cart, as resting the cart directly on its base
will block ventilation openings, causing a hazardous situation. Keep ventilation openings on side walls and base of cart unobstructed at all times.
Never use the grill in a windy area.
Do not use charcoal or lighter fluid in the outdoor grill. Charcoal or similar combustible fuels must not be used with
the appliance.
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 LPG cylinder. 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.
Have an ABC rated Fire Extinguisher accessible – never attempt to extinguish a grease fire with water or other liq-
uids.
To avoid burns when cooking, use long handled BBQ tools.
Do not move the appliance during its use.
Do not locate the outdoor grill in an inclined plane. Be sure to lock the castor wheels before operating the unit.
This unit is for outdoor use only! Do not operate in enclosed areas. This could result in carbon monoxide build-up
which would result in injury or death.
When using a grill, be sure that all parts of the unit are firmly in place and that the grill is stable (can’t be tipped
over).
To put out flare-ups, adjust the controls to lower the temperature.
Open the hood before lighting a grill burner or the rotisserie burner.
When cooking with the hood closed, use the LOW setting only.
Do not use the rotisserie burner in combination with any grill burner.
This outdoor cooking gas appliance is not intended to be installed in or on recreational vehicles, trailers and/or
boats.

Tools required: Phillips screwdriver.
Shipping Brackets
Important!
Before installation, remove shipping brackets from the grill. To do so, loosen the 4 screws on the bottom sides of the grill which hold the brackets to the grill. Slide the shipping brackets off and retighten the screws.
Remove all internal packaging and adhesive residue. To remove stubborn residue, use rubbing alcohol or a commercially avail­able adhesive remover.
Packing elements (i.e. plastic bags, polystyrene foam, nails, packing straps, etc.) should not be left around within easy reach of children, as these may cause serious injuries.
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 and away from heat sources. Locate the grill only in a well ventilated area. Do not build the grill under overhead unprotected combustible construction. Never locate the grill in a building, garage, breezeway, shed or other such enclosed areas. See following page for definition and illustration of outdoor areas. During heavy use, the grill will produce a lot of heat and smoke. Ensure there is adequate area for it to dissipate.
If locating the grill in a windy area, try to locate the grill so the prevailing wind will blow air at the front of the grill as shown in Fig. 02. This will assist the grill in venting hot air thru the back of the grill. In addition, this will help keep any smoke from blowing at someone who is cooking on the grill. If you have to locate the grill in a windy area where the prevailing wind is at the rear of the grill, a windbreak must be installed. The windbreak should be made such that it will block wind from entering the exhaust vent in the rear of the unit as shown in Fig.
02. Location of the windbreak relative to rear of the grill must adhere to the clearances specified for combustible or non-combustible construction as defined in these instructions. Refer to following pages.
FIG. 1
As a high-performance gas appliance, your grill requires significant amounts of air to support the combustion process. Your grill is designed to take air in through the valve panel area, and send the exhaust products out through the exhaust gap at the rear of the hood. Using your grill in windy conditions can disrupt the proper flow of air though your grill, leading to reduced performance, or in certain severe cases, causing heat buildup in the valve panel area. This can lead to problems such as having the knobs melt, or burn hazards when the valve panel surfaces become too hot to touch.
During high wind conditions, it is best if you don’t use your grill. If you live in an area that is subject to frequent high winds, or a steady directional wind, then the installation of a suitable windbreak may be advised. If you have a grilling cart, it is best to position the unit so the prevailing wind blows into the valve panel, thus supporting the proper airflow. Winds hitting the back of the grill directly are the most likely to cause problems, although wind blowing along the exhaust gap in the rear can also be problematic.
Please note that damage to your grill resulting from use in windy conditions, such as melted knobs or igniter wires, or valve panel discoloration from heat build-up, are excluded from warranty coverage.

LOCATING GRILL/BUILTIN CLEARANCES
Clearances to Non-Combustible Construction*:
A minimum of 76 mm clearance from the back of the grill to non-combustible construction is required for the purpose of allowing the hood to open fully. It is desirable to allow at least 153 mm rear and side clearance to non-combustible 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.

WARNING!
Failure to maintain required clearances creates a fire hazard that may result in property damage or serious personal injury. We recommend installing the Grill as far away from combustible surfaces as possible.
WARNING!
The BGB Grill is designed to function in an open area. Recommended minimum clearances should be maintained to all surfaces (combustible and noncombustible) for optimum performance. Noncombustible material within the minimum clearance area could result in discoloration or deterioration.
WARNING!
If a noncombustible material such as stucco is covering a combustible material such as wood, the minimum clear­ance distance needs to be held to the wood. The presence of a noncombustible material inside the clearance zone does not eliminate the minimum clearance zone to combustible material.
* DEFINITION OF NONCOMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL - Material which is not capable of being ignited and burned, such as
materials consisting entirely of, or a combination of, steel, iron, brick tile, concrete, slate, and plaster.
Clearances to Combustible Construction**:
Minimum of 310 mm from the sides and rear of grill must be maintained to adjacent vertical combustible con­struction, above the counter top level. You should take in account that there is a large volume of heat, and smoke will exhaust from the rear of the grill. This may discolour or damage unprotected areas (Fig. 04). Do not install under unprotected combustible construction without using a fire safe ventilation system.
A 310 mm minimum clearance must be maintained under the counter top to combustible construction. The clear-
ance can be modified by a use of an insulated jacket.

** DEFINITION OF COMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL - Any materials of a building structure or decorative structure made
of wood, compressed paper, plant fibers, vinyl/plastic or other materials that are capable of transferring heat or being ignited and burned. Such material shall be considered combustible even though flame-proofed, fire-retar­dant treated or surface-painted, or plastered.
Important!
It is required that a minimum of 3 x 65 cm2 of ventilation opening be provided for both the left and right sides, as well as the back of enclosure (Fig. 10), in order to safely dissipate unburned gas vapours in the event of a gas supply leak.
WARNING!
Note specific built-in enclosure ventilation requirements. See text and Fig. 10.
GENERAL
The grill is designed for easy placement into built-in masonry enclosures. For non-combustible applications the grill drops into the opening shown in Fig. 10 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. 10. The insulation jacket assembly must be supported from the bottom by a ledge on each side and back or a solid deck.
A carpenter’s “spirit level” should be used to assure that the unit is level both front-to-back and side-to-side. If it is not level, burner combustion may be erratic or the unit may not function efficiently for grease flow. If the floor is uneven or has a decided slope, re-leveling may be required after each moving of a freestanding unit.
INSULATED JACKET:
WARNING!
Installing this product into a combustible enclosure without an insulated jacket could result in fire, property damage and personal injury.
If the grill is to be placed into a combustible enclosure, an approved insulated jacket is necessary. Insulated jackets are available from your dealer. Use only the DCS by Fisher & Paykel insulated jacket which has specifically been designed and tested for this purpose. Review the detail drawing shown (Fig. 10) and take into account the provisions shown for gas line hook-up clearance in the right rear corner. It is required that ventilation holes are provided in the enclosure to eliminate the potential build-up of gas in the event of a gas leak. The supporting ledges or deck must be level and flat and strong enough to support the grill and insulated jacket. The counter should also be level.

GAS HOOKUP
GAS REQUIREMENTS
Verify the type of gas supply to be used, either natural or LPG, by checking the gas type label on rear panel of the unit and the serial label behind the drip pan handle on the right-hand side. For gas consumption data, see the rating label on the rear panel of the unit. Never connect an unregulated gas line to the appliance. You must use the gas regulator provided with the unit, even if the supply is controlled.
If the unit is being connected to a reticulated gas supply, 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 the requirements of AS/NZS 5601.1:2010 and any other applicable statutory regulations.
All pipe sealants must be an ap proved type and resistant to the actions of LPG gases. Never use pipe sealant on flare fittings. All gas connections should be made by a qualified gas fitter and in accordance with local codes and ordinances. In the absence of local codes, the installation must comply with the the requirements of AS/ NZS 5601.1:2010 and any other applicable statutory regulations. Gas conversion kits are available from Customer Care. See section ‘Service’ for contact details. When ordering gas conversion kits, have the model number, and the type of gas (natural or LPG) from your grill.
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 3.5 kPa (1/2 PSIG). The appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shut-off valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 3.5 kPa (1/2 PSIG).
NATURAL GAS HOOK UP:
Important!
THIS TYPE OF CONNECTION SHOULD BE PERFORMED BY A CERTIFIED OR LICENSED GAS FITTER ONLY.
Connection: Grills set for use with Natural gas come with an NG regulator assembly which has a short section of
hose already connected. The regulator has a test point. The regulator assembly is not connected to the appliance. A certified gas fitter needs to connect the appliance to the gas supply. Shut-off valve and Gas fittings for rigid piping connection are not supplied with the appliance -- they must be provided by the installer.
For built-in installation with connection to Natural Gas:
1. Attach regulator hose assembly to the appliance using the 3/8” SAE 45 Flare connection.
2. Plumb from the female 1/2” BSP side of the regulator to gas supply.
3. Do leak test.
4. After the connection is completed, turn the shut-off valve on and turn the burner control valves on the unit tothe “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.
For units mounted on a mobile cart and being connected to a reticulated supply of Natural gas: a special ‘quick connect’ flexible hose accessory kit must be purchased separately by the installer from DCS by Fisher & Paykel. See section ‘Service’ for contact details.
1. Purchase, upon request from the customer, the ‘quick connect’ flexible hose accessory kit - 1/2” BSP connec­tion (for the regulator) and a quick disconnect flexible hose (for connection to house supply).
2. If not already done, attach the regulator (1kPa) hose assembly to the appliance using the 3/8” SAE 45 Flare con­nection.
3. Thread the kit-supplied quick connect hose into cart and attach hose accessory 1/2” BSP male connection to female 1/2” BSP side of the regulator.
4. Do leak test.
5.After the connection is completed, turn the shut-off 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.
6. Disconnect hose, then coil up hose and hang on exterior hook at the back of the cart.
