IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

■

WARNING:

To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock,
injury to persons, or damage when using the outdoor cooking
gas appliance, follow basic precautions, including the
following:

■

Do not install portable or built-in outdoor cooking gas
appliances in or on a recreational vehicle, portable trailer,
boat or in any other moving installation.

■

Always maintain minimum clearances from combustible
construction, see “Location Requirements” section.

■

The outdoor cooking gas appliance shall not be located
under overhead unprotected combustible construction.

■

This outdoor cooking gas appliance shall be used only
outdoors and shall not be used in a building, garage, or any
other enclosed area.

■

Keep any electrical supply cord and fuel supply hose away
from any heated surfaces.

■

Keep outdoor cooking gas appliance area clear and free
from combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable
vapors and liquids.

■

Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air.
Keep the ventilation openings of the cylinder enclosure free
and clear from debris.

■

Inspect the gas cylinder supply hose before each use of the
outdoor cooking gas appliance. If the hose shows
excessive abrasion or wear, or is cut, it MUST be replaced
before using the outdoor cooking gas appliance. Contact
your dealer and use only replacement hoses specified for
use with the outdoor cooking gas appliance.

■

Visually check the burner flames. They should be blue.
Slight yellow tipping is normal for LP gas.

■

Check and clean burner/venturi tube for insects and insect
nest. A clogged tube can lead to fire under the outdoor
cooking gas appliance.

The LP gas supply cylinder to be used must be:

- constructed and marked in accordance with the
Specification for LP Gas Cylinders of the U.S. Department
of Transportation (DOT) or the National Standard of
Canada, CAN/CSA-B339, Cylinders, Spheres, and Tubes
for Transportation of Dangerous Goods; and Commission.

- provided with a listed overfilling prevention device.

- provided with a cylinder connection device compatible
with the connection for outdoor cooking gas appliances.

■

Always check connections for leaks each time you connect
and disconnect the LP gas supply cylinder. See
“Installation Instructions” section.

■

When the outdoor cooking gas appliance is not in use, the
gas must be turned off at the supply cylinder.

■

Storage of an outdoor cooking gas appliance indoors is
permissible only if the cylinder is disconnected and
removed from the outdoor cooking gas appliance.

■

Cylinders must be stored outdoors and out of the reach of
children and must not be stored in a building, garage, or
any other enclosed area.

■

The pressure regulator and hose assembly supplied with
the outdoor cooking gas appliance must be used. A
replacement pressure regulator and hose assembly
specific to your model is available from your outdoor
cooking gas appliance dealer.

■

Gas cylinder must include a collar to protect the cylinder
valve.

■

For appliances designed to use a CGA791 Connection:
Place a dust cap on cylinder valve outlet whenever the
cylinder is not in use. Only install the type of dust cap on
the cylinder valve outlet that is provided with the cylinder
valve. Other types of caps or plugs may result in leakage
of propane.

If the following information is not followed exactly, a fire
causing death or serious injury may occur.

■

Do not store a spare LP gas cylinder under or near this
outdoor cooking gas appliance.

■

Never fill the cylinder beyond 80 percent full.

WARNING

Electrical Shock Hazard
Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.
Do not remove ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,

fire, or electrical shock.

If codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is
recommended that a qualified electrician determine that the
ground path is adequate.

Check with a qualified electrician if you are not sure whether the
side burner is properly grounded.

A 120-volt, 60-Hz, AC-only, 15-amp, fused electrical supply is
required.

It is recommended that a separate circuit servicing only this side
burner be provided.

The model/serial number rating plate is located on the right-hand
side panel. See the following illustration.

Gas Supply Requirements

WARNING

Explosion Hazard

Use a new CSA International approved “outdoor”
gas supply line.

Securely tighten all gas connections.
If connected to LP, have a qualified person make sure

gas pressure does not exceed 11” (28 cm) water
column.

Examples of a qualified person include:
licensed heating personnel,

authorized gas company personnel, and
authorized service personnel.

Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.

The outdoor side burner, when installed, must be electrically
grounded in accordance with local codes or, in the absence of
local codes, with the National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70, or
Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.1.

Copies of the standards listed above may be obtained from:
CSA International

8501 East Pleasant Valley Rd.
Cleveland, Ohio 44131-5575

Observe all governing codes and ordinances.
IMPORTANT: This installation must conform with all local codes

and ordinances. In the absence of local codes, installation must
conform with American National Standard, National Fuel Gas
Code ANSI Z223.1 - latest edition or CAN/CGA B149.1 - latest
edition.

IMPORTANT: The side burner must be connected to a regulated
gas supply.

Refer to the model/serial rating plate for information on the type
of gas that can be used. If this information does not agree with
the type of gas available, check with your local gas supplier.

Gas Conversion:

No attempt shall be made to convert the side burner from the gas
specified on the model/serial rating plate for use with a different
gas type without consulting the serving gas supplier. The
conversion kits specified must be used.

Gas Pressure Regulator

C

Natural Gas

The gas pressure regulator supplied with this side burner must be
used. The inlet (supply) pressure to the regulator should be as
follows for proper operation:

LP Gas:

Set pressure: 11" (27.9 cm) WCP
Inlet (supply) pressure: 11" to 14" (27.9 cm to 35.5 cm) WCP

Natural Gas:

Set pressure: 4" (10.2 cm) WCP
Inlet (supply) pressure: 7" to 14" (17.8 cm to 35.5 cm)
WCP maximum.

Contact local gas supplier if you are not sure about the inlet
(supply) pressure.

Burner Requirements for High Altitude

Input ratings shown on the model/serial rating plate are for
elevations up to 2,000 ft (609.6 m).

For elevations above 2,000 ft (609.6 m), ratings are reduced at a
rate of 4% for each 1,000 ft (304.8 m) above sea level. Orifice
conversion is required. See “Assistance or Service” section to
order.

Gas Supply Line Pressure Testing

Testing above ½ psi (3.5 kPa) or 14" (35.5 cm) WCP (gauge):

The side burner and its individual shutoff valve must be
disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any
pressure testing of that system at test pressures greater than
½ psig (3.5 kPa).

Testing below ½ psi (3.5 kPa) or 14" (35.5 cm) WCP (gauge) or
lower:

The side burner 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 ½ psig (3.5 kPa).

Side burners are equipped for use with Natural gas. They are
design-certified by CSA International for LP (propane or butane)
gases with appropriate conversion.

Side burners are set for natural gas use and have a pressure
regulator with ¹⁄₂" (1.3 cm) female pipe threads.

A

A. Rear side of burner
B. ¹⁄₂" (1.3 cm) side burner gas pipe
C. New CSA approved outdoor flexible gas supply line

The supply line shall be equipped with an approved shutoff valve.
This valve should be located in the same area as the burner and
should be in a location that allows ease of opening and closing.
Do not block access to the shutoff valve. The valve is for turning
on or shutting off gas to the appliance.

LP gas conversion from a local LP gas supply:

Conversion must be made by a qualified person. A qualified
natural gas technician shall provide the LP gas supply to the
selected side burner location in accordance with the National
Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z2223.1/NFPA54 latest edition, and local
codes.

To convert to LP gas, the LP Gas Conversion Kit Number
W10118099 must be used. Follow Instructions included with kit.

10

LP gas conversion using a 20 lb LP fuel tank:

To convert to LP gas, the LP Gas Conversion Kit Number
W10118099 must be used. Follow Instructions included with kit.

A 20 lb (9.1 kg) LP gas fuel tank must be purchased separately.
