GAS CONNECTION - NATURAL GAS (NG): 
NOTE: THIS APPLIES TO NATURAL GAS MODELS ONLY. FOR LP MODELS, SEE PAGE 8. 
NEVER CONNECT THE GRILL TO AN UNREGULATED GAS SUPPLY. 
Before proceeding, ensure the unit is fitted for natural gas. Connecting to an improper gas type will result 
in  poor  performance  and  increased  risk  of  damage  or  injury.  The  installation  of  this  appliance  must 
conform with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, to the national fuel gas code, ANSI Z223.1a-
1988. Installation in Canada must be in accordance with the Standard CAN/ CGA-B149.1 Natural Gas 
Installation or CAN/CGA-B149.2, Propane Installation Code. 
Manifold pressure with NG:  Operating:    4.0” W.C. (.14 PSI) 
          Non-operating:  4.5” W.C. (.16 PSI) 
          Optimum pressure:  7.0” W.C. (.25 PSI) 
NOTE:  To ensure proper heating performance of this appliance, verify that the gas line supply pressure 
  is adequate (7.0” W.C. supply pressure is preferred) to maintain 4.5” W.C. manifold pressure. 
  Use a minimum 1/2” ID flex hose to prevent gas starvation. 
NATURAL GAS CONNECTION: 
Ensure that the service pipe supplying the Grill is fitted with a shut 
off  valve  conveniently  positioned  and  easily  accessible  as  an 
emergency gas shutoff. 
Your ARTISAN™ Grill for use with Natural Gas comes equipped 
with  its  own  regulator  which  is  shipped  loose  but  must  be 
installed. 
CAUTION 
CYLINDERS MUST BE STORED OUTDOORS IN A WELL VENTILATED AREA OUT OF THE 
REACH OF CHILDREN. 
DISCONNECTED LP CYLINDERS MUST HAVE THREADED VALVE PLUGS TIGHTLY INSTALLED, AND MUST NOT 
BE STORED IN A BUILDING, GARAGE OR ANY OTHER ENCLOSED AREA. THE GAS MUST BE TURNED OFF AT 
THE SUPPLY CYLINDER WHEN THE UNIT IS NOT IN USE. IF THE APPLIANCE IS STORED INDOORS, THE CYL-
INDER MUST BE DISCONNECTED AND REMOVED FROM THE APPLIANCE.  
WARNING 
ENSURE THAT THE GAS 
SUPPLY HOSE DOES 
NOT COME IN CONTACT 
WITH THE GRILL BODY 
LP GAS CONNECTION TO LP PIPED SYSTEMS: 
An LP piped system is one with a large central LP tank that feeds the entire household. Those systems 
are normally equipped with a high pressure regulator by the large LP tank and low pressure regulators 
close to the home.  
WARNING 
YOUR ARTISAN™ GRILL’S PRESSURE REGULATOR 
HAS  A  MAXIMUM  INPUT  PRESSURE  OF  14”  WC. 
(OR APPROX. .5 PSI) , AND A SAFETY LIMIT OF  69” 
WC. (2.5 PSI).  
REGULATOR NOTICE 
Exposure to pressures above the safety limit 
of 69” WC. will permanently damage the gas 
regulator  requiring  a  replacement.  OVER 
PRESSURE  DAMAGE  IS  NOT  COVERED  BY 
YOUR ARTISAN™ WARRANTY
