BEFORE YOU START
IMPORTANT NOTES
WHERE’S THE WIND?
When selecting a suitable location, consider important
factors such as exposure to the wind and foot-traffic
patterns.
If you have a freestanding grill, position it so the prevailing
wind blows into the front control panel (at your back when
grilling), supporting the proper front-to-rear airflow.
Built-in grills located in areas with prevailing winds should
be protected by a wind barrier.
Winds hitting the back of the grill directly may cause
problems, as well as
wind blowing along
the hood gap.
HOW LONG IS YOUR RUN?
Keep all gas supply lines as short as possible because
gas lines lose pressure over distance and with each elbow
and tee that is added. This drop in pressure affects grill
performance. (See INDEX: “Gas Supply Line Runs” for
further details.)
ARE YOU “ON-THE-LEVEL”?
Proper leveling during installation is critical. A grill that
is out of level will cause erratic burner combustion and
inefficient, uneven heating. A carpenter’s spirit level
should be used to level the grill both front-to-back and
side-to-side.
If the floor is uneven or has a decided slope, re-leveling
may be required each time you move a freestanding unit.
BEFORE YOU START ...continued
BUILT-IN INSTALLATIONS
A minimum of 6” of clearance is needed on the left side of
the grill above the counter top for the rotisserie motor and
WARNING
• Never install this product into a combustible enclosure without an insulated jacket. Doing so could result in fire,
property damage and personal injury.
• Never locate the grill under a roof or overhang, in a building, garage, shed or other such enclosed area.
• Never locate the grill under unprotected combustible construction.
• Installation must conform with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with either the National Fuel Gas
Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, Natural Gas and propane Installation Code, CSA B149.1, or Propane Storage and
Handling Code, B149.2, in Canada.

CONCEALED LOSS OR DAMAGE
The Lynx Built-In Grill is designed for easy installation into
masonry enclosures.
NOTE: Lynx built-in grills are intended either for
installation in a built-in enclosure constructed of
non-combustible materials or for an installation in a built
in enclosure constructed of combustible material when
installed with a Lynx insulating jacket (LIJ).
For non-combustible applications, the grill drops into the
opening shown in the cutout detail drawing (See INDEX:
“Gas Requirements”) and hangs from its counter-top trim. A
deck is not required to support it from the bottom.
When using the insulated jacket in a combustible enclosure,
the jacket must be supported from the bottom by a ledge
on each side or a full deck beneath the jacket.
spit rod.
If the grill is to be placed into a combustible enclosure, an
approved insulated jacket is necessary and is available only
from your Lynx dealer. Lynx insulated jackets have been
designed and tested specifically for your Grill.
REAR HOOD CLEARANCE
A 3 inch clearance is required behind the grill to allow the
front hood to open.
The grill exhausts combustion products and cooking
greases to the back. Never locate the grill where this

CARE & USE/INSTALLATION
|
NEVER CONNECT A GAS LINE DIRECTLY TO THE GRILL. A PRESSURE REGULATOR MUST BE INSTALLED ON
ALL GAS EQUIPMENT. ALL LOCAL CODES REQUIRE IT AND LYNX SUPPLIES THE CORRECT REGULATOR
WITH YOUR GRILL. REMOVING OR FAILING TO INSTALL THE PRESSURE REGULATOR CAN RESULT IN FIRE
AND SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY AND WILL VOID THE WARRANTY.
GAS CONNECTIONS
Keep last two
threads clean
For freestanding units using natural gas, Lynx recommends
using a mobile flex gas line.
This is available at your local hardware store or from your
dealer.
LP GAS
Grills set up for LP gas come equipped with an LP hose/
regulator assembly for connection to a standard 20 lb. LP
cylinder. (Type 1). All fittings necessary to attach the assem-
bly to the grill are included.
Permanently plumbed LP connections, such as those in line
with a bulk cylinder, require a 4/11 regulator. (Lynx P/N 30781)
When using the 4/11 regulator you must ensure that it is
set for the proper fuel type. This is done by removing the
regulator cap and gasket and looking at the bottom of the
plunger to see what fuel type is visible. This is the
regulator fuel setting. NAT is for natural gas and LP is for
propane gas. The LP setting can be further identified by
the large diameter disk on the bottom of the plunger. To
change from one gas to the other simply push the plunger
to the side to snap it out of the cap, turn the plunger so
it reads the desired gas type on the bottom, and push
the plunger until it snaps back into place in the cap then
replace the cap into the regulator.
Never connect an unregulated gas line to the grill.
LP Cylinder Requirements
The LP cylinder must be constructed and marked in
accordance with the specifications for LP gas cylinders of
the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) and designed
for use with a Type 1 system only.
Cylinders of free standing grills must be secured using the
provided cylinder retention system to avoid accidental
movement.
When exchanging your
cylinder for a refill,
exchange only for a
Type 1 20lb cylinder with
an over-fill protection
device.
Never use a cylinder with a damaged valve.
A dented or rusty LP cylinder may be hazardous and should
be avoided. If in doubt, have it checked by your LP supplier.
Always check for leaks after every LP cylinder change. (See
INDEX: “Leak Test” for further details.)
Always shut off the LP-gas supply at the cylinder when the
grill is not in use.
Cylinders must be stored outdoors in a well-ventilated area
out of the reach of children. If your grill is stored indoors,
the LP cylinder must be stored outside.
LP Connections
Make sure the LP cylinder valve is fully closed. It is possible
for the valve to be open without releasing gas but, as soon
as you start connecting the regulator, gas will leak from the
connection.
GAS CONNECTIONS ...continued
The grill is factory set to use either propane (LP) or natural
gas (NAT). It is critical that the gas you use matches that
which the grill was set up for. You can verify that by
checking the rating plate.
The Rating plate lists serial numbers, model numbers and gas
type. This one is underneath the drip tray.
The rating plate is located in one or more of the following
places:
• Attached to the underside of the drip tray
• On the heat shield behind the front panel
Ensure that the gas supplied meets with the minimum
pressure requirements. Do not operate the grill on any gas
other than that for which the grill has been set.

tuned for the type of gas specified on the rating plate.
Converting to a different type of gas requires a conversion
kit, available from Lynx or from your dealer and must be
installed by a qualified technician or certified plumber.
All installation and all installation parts must conform to
local codes with the National Electrical Code, ANSI Z223.1/
NFPA 70 latest edition and the National Fuel Gas Code,
ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 in the U.S. and CGA-B149.1/.2 in

NATURAL GAS
Lynx recommends that only qualified professionals perform
the required plumbing on this product.
To ensure satisfactory performance, the gas supply line
must be sized to accommodate the total BTU requirements
of all the gas-fired equipment that will be connected to that
line.
In no case should an inlet pipe less than 3/4” inside
diameter or 1” outside diameter ever be used to connect
this product.
• Calculate the total BTU output of all equipment and
refer to “INDEX: Gas Supply Line Runs” for allowable run
distances for ¾ inch pipe. Failure to meet these minimum
requirements may reduce performance of the grill and
any other appliances running on that supply line.
• Always keep supply line runs as short as possible. (See
INDEX: “BTU Output” for specific model outputs)
• A gas shut-off valve must be installed in an easily accessible location by a qualified plumber.
• Keep threading compound off of the first two pipe
threads to avoid having any small pieces of compound
break loose and clog a burner valve or orifice. Do not use
threading compound on any flare fittings.
For built-in installations, it is recommended that any flexible
pipe used be kept as short as possible. (See INDEX: “Gas
Connections” for typical permanent hook up.)
Do not change the regulator/hose assembly or
use any other assembly than the one supplied
with your Lynx grill.
Do not attempt to use a 5LP-A equipped
regulator/hose assembly with a standard 510 POL
cylinder/valve assembly.
Do not store a spare LP-gas cylinder under or
near this appliance.
Never fill the cylinder beyond 80 percent full.
If the information above is not followed exactly, a
fire causing death or serious injury may occur.
