General Information
• A minimum of 6” (15.2 cm) from the sides,
or a minimum of 8” (20.3 cm) from the
right side if there is a rotisserie motor and
a minimum of 24” (61.0 cm) from the back
must be maintained from the grill above
the cooking surface to adjacent vertical
combustible construction. The grill is not
to be located under overhead
unprotected combustible construction.
NOTE: An insulated jacket (INJKpurchased separately) is required when
installing either a 100 or 300 series grill in
combustible type material.
• Note that the grill exhausts combustion
products and cooking greases to the back.
NEVER locate the grill in a location where
the exhaust is directed at a window, less
than 24” (61.0 cm) to combustible
material or any surface that is difficult
to clean.
• A minimum of 3” (7.6 cm) clearance from
the back of the grill with a canopy and a
minimum of 6” (15.2 cm) from the back of
the grill without a canopy to non-
combustible construction is required for
the purpose of allowing the lid to open
fully and for proper ventilation. It is
desirable to allow at least 6” side
clearance to non-combustible construction
above the cooking surface for counter
space. If using the rotisserie option, the
space is essential for motor and skewer
clearance. The grill can be placed directly
adjacent to combustible and/or noncombustible construction below the
cooking surface. However, clearances from
non-combustible materials are not part of
the ANSI Z21.58 scope and are not
certified by CSA. Clearances to noncombustible materials must be approved
by the authority having jurisdiction.
• When determining a suitable location for
the grill, take into account concerns such
as exposure to wind, proximity to traffic
paths and keeping gas supply lines as
short as possible. Locate the grill only in a
well-ventilated area. Never locate the grill
in a building, garage, shed or other such
fully enclosed areas. During heavy use, the
grill will produce a lot of smoke. Ensure
there is adequate area for it to dissipate.
300 and 500 Series Grills:
• When using a rear wall, locate a 110/120
volt supply outlet on the bottom left hand
side beneath the solid bottom support at
a maximum distance of 2 feet. This
connection is to be used for the ignition
system and canopy lights. In addition, the
rotisserie motor requires a separate
110/120 volt supply to be located on the
right hand side of the grill. Both the
power supply cords for the ignition/lights
and the rotisserie motor are equipped
with a 3-prong (grounded) plug for
protection against shock hazard. Do not
cut or remove the grounding from the
plug. The electrical service must be
equipped with a properly grounded 3prong receptacle as required by the
National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70latest edition. Installation in Canada must
be in accordance with the Canadian
Electrical Code, CSA 22.1 and local
codes.
IMPORTANT: Gas fittings, regulator, and
installer supplied shut-off valve must be
easily accessible.

General Information
• Keep grill area clear and free from combustible
materials, gasoline, and other flammable
vapors.
• When the outdoor grill is not in use, the gas
supply must be turned off at the LP gas supply
cylinder.
• The pressure regulator and hose assembly
supplied with the outdoor grill must be used.
Replacement pressure regulators and hose
assemblies must be those specified by the
manufacturer.
• 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 technician.
• The LP supply cylinder to be used must be
constructed and marked in accordance with
the specifications for LP- gas cylinders of the
U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) or
the National Standard of Canada, CAN/CSAB339, Cylinders, Spheres, and Tubes for the
Transportation of Dangerous Goods.
• Use only extension cords with a 3-prong
grounding plug, rated for the power of the
equipment, and approved for outdoor use with
a W-A marking.
• Gas Manifold Pressure–
Natural gas - 4.0” W.C.P.
LP/Propane - 10.0” W.C.P.
