Perform a leak test at least once a year whether the gas supply cylinder has been

disconnected or not. In addition, whenever the gas cylinder is connected to the regulator or

whenever any part of the gas system is disconnected or replaced, perform a leak test.

As a safety precaution, remember to always leak test your grill outdoors in a well ventilated

area. Never smoke or permit sources of ignition in the area while doing a leak test. Do not

use a flame, such as a lighted match to test for leaks. Use a solution of soapy water.

Prepare a leak testing solution of soapy water by mixing in a spray bottle one part liquid soap

to one part water.

Make sure all the control knobs are in the OFF position .

Turn on the gas

• On Natural Gas systems, turn the main feed valve to the grill.

• On LP systems, turn the cylinder valve knob counter clockwise one turn to open.

Apply the leak-testing solution by spraying it on joints of the gas delivery system.

Blowing bubbles in the soap solution indicates that a leak is present.

Stop a leak by tightening the loose joint or by replacing the faulty part with a replacement part

recommended by the manufacturer. Do not attempt to repair the cylinder valve if it is damaged.

The cylinder must be discarded to a proper LP tank location and then replaced.

Turn all control knobs back to the full OFF position.

If you are unable to stop a leak turn all control knobs back to the full OFF position, shut off the

gas supply to the grill and release pressure in the hose and manifold by pushing in and turning

any of the control valves one quarter turn counter-clockwise.

On LP systems, remove the cylinder from the grill.

Call an authorized gas appliance service technician or an LP gas dealer.

Do not use the appliance until the leak is corrected.

If you smell gas or hear a hiss of gas escaping from the tank, get away from the tank and do

not attempt to correct the problem yourself. Call the Fire Department immediately.

If your grill has no leak at the cylinder, then re-check for loose connections and retest for leaks

using the method detailed in the following pages with soapy solution.

Do not subject your LP gas cylinder to excessive heat, and always store the cylinder in an

upright position. Never store your LP cylinders indoors.

Make sure that when attaching components, all connections are secured and fully tightened to

prevent leakage.

If one is not already available, it is recommended that an ON-OFF shutoff valve be installed at

the gas supply source, and that the gas supply be turned off when either Natural Gas or LP

Gas grills are not in use.

Before installing a grill in any island or cut out, make sure that the opening is not bigger than

the outside frame of the grill unit. The grill should rest on the lip of the frame.

Pay careful attention to the location of the gas line. It should be routed away from sources of

heat and should make as few bends as possible.

Check to see if the gas line connection will be accessible when grill is installed.

If the gas line connection is not easily accessible when the grill is installed, support the grill

above counter level and attach the gas line to the grill. When the gas connection is made, slide

the grill into the cut out. If the gas line connection is accessible when the grill iinstalled, slide

the grill into the cut out and then attach the gas line.

Be very careful not to kink the gas line when lowering the grill into the cut out.

Keep your fingers away from where the grill will be supported on counter. Your fingers could

become trapped and serious injury could occur.

Check to make sure the grill is level and is supported around the entire outside edge. If the grill

is not level or is unstable, use non-combustible shims under the outside lip to stabilize it.

Perform the leak test procedure as described earlier in this manual.

Before cooking with your grill for the first time, burn off any foreign matter and rid the unit of

any odors by operating the unit for about five minutes.

When lit, the flame should have a bluish color to it. It may have a tint of yellow and adjustment

to the air shutters can be made to obtain a blue flame and proper gas flow.

can cook poultry and larger cuts of meat slowly if you turn OFF the burner directly under

the food and use adjacent burners to supply heat (a.k.a. “convection cooking” or “indirect

cooking”).

Fats and juices that drip down can cause flare-ups. Since some flare-up does impart a

distinctive and desirable flavor, taste and color to foods being grilled, they should be

carefully and reasonably encouraged. Uncontrolled or excessive flare-ups, however, will

damage your food. (When cooking foods with a high fat content, using indirect heat also

greatly reduces flare-ups.)

Currently all grills are supplied with a regulator set at a pressure of 4” water column.

Fuel Conversion of Main Burners:

1. Determine the existing gas type (LP or Natural gas). The process for changing the gas

type (orifice change-out) is the same for both gases.

2.

You

must remove all cooking grills and flame tamers to expose the main burners in the

grill.

3. On the bottom rear of each burner is a screw. Remove screw.

4.

To

remove burner, slide burner toward the rear of the grill and upward. Repeat for each

burner.

5. Where the burner was previously located, connecting to the main valve through the hole in

the basin, should now be evacuated space.

6. Inside the space you will find the end of the valve (toward the front of grill), with an orifice

(brass fitting), screwed into the end of the valve stem.

7. Carefully remove the orifice with a 7mm socket set and extension. (These are extremely

and have to replace the valve).

8. Once the orifice is removed, replace it with the new change-out orifice, (repeat for all

burners). When re-installing orifice, do not over tighten or you will strip the brass fitting.

Little pressure is needed!!!

9. Replace burners and test for proper flame height. Flame should stand between ½” - 1” on

LOW and 1.5” - 2” on HIGH.

(To

adjust the LOW flame setting simply light the grill on the

LOW setting and adjust the screw which is located under the knob on the front of the valve

as seen in the diagram below.)

For the Summer Sizzler 4 Burner, replace the back burner orifice by removing the plate on the

rear of the BBQ and carefully removing the fitting. Replace with the provided conversion back

burner orifice – large brass fitting (differs from small BBQ burner orifice).

NOTE: When converting to LP – remove the Natural gas Regulator that is located under the

bbq and inline with the gas manifold and valves. When converting to Natural Gas add a

Natural gas regulator (4” Water Column Approved Natural Gas Regulator) to the gas grill either

directly on the manifold or placed in line between the Natural gas supply and the barbecue.

On the NG Regulator an arrow shows you the gas flow OR the words “In” – “Out”. If regulator is

placed the wrong way, it will not work. ( Use only a Licensed Professional when converting a

Warranty

Warranty Registration

Registration

If you have purchased a Summer Sizzler Series Grill you must maintain your original receipt to

get service on the grill. The warranty is for original owners only and cannot be transferred to

new owners.

You

should retain your sales slip or invoice.

All Natural and LP Gas grills must have a qualified installer complete the installation for the

warranty to be in effect. The incorrect installation of the Summer Sizzler gas grill will void the

warranty. Please call Summerset for more information on correct installation of the gas grill.

Do not install a rubber hose to connect the grill. Gas piping must be 1/2" minimum diameter

and the gas line requires a gas shut-off valve. Check all connections using the soapy water

solution and test techniques described in this manual.

When using an LP tank, the tank must be purged of any air build up, or the unit will not function.

A

qualified person must purge the tank of all excess air.

Summerset shall not be liable under this or any implied warranty for incidental or

consequential damages and Summersets liability is limited to the purchase price of the

barbecue only. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other

rights, which may vary from state to state. This warranty is applicable in the United States

and Canada only. No one else is authorized to perform any obligations under this warranty.
