BEFORE GRILLING
SHIPMENT ARRIVING DAMAGED:
IMPORTANT NOTES:
VISIBLE DAMAGE
If your shipment arrives with visible damage to
the box/carton, be sure the damage is noted on
the bill of freight or express receipt and signed
by the person making the delivery. File claim for
damages immediately, regardless of the extent of
damage.
BE MINDFUL OF WIND DIRECTION
When selecting a suitable location, consider
important factors such as exposure to the
wind and foot traffic paerns. If you have a
freestanding grill, position it so the prevailing
wind blows into the front control panel (at your
back when grilling), allowing for proper front to
rear airflow. Built-in grills located in areas with
prevailing winds should be protected by a wind
barrier, wind deflector, or wind guard. The grill is
designed to pull in air from the front and exhaust
through the rear of the unit. Winds hiing the
back of the grill directly may cause problems. Be
sure wind doesn’t blow into the hood gap.
CONCEALED DAMAGES
If damages are unnoticed until the grill is
unpacked, notify the transportation company or
carrier immediately and file a concealed damage
claim with them. This should be done within (5)
days of the delivery date. Be sure to hold on to
the box/carton for inspection. We cannot assume
responsibility for damage or loss incurred in
transit.
GAS LINE LENGTH
Keep all gas supply lines as short as possible. Gas
lines lose pressure over distance and with each
elbow or “t” fiing added. This drop in pressure
affects grill performance.
PROPER LEVELING
PROPER LEVELING DURING INSTALLATION
IS CRITICAL. A GRILL THAT IS OUT OF LEVEL
WILL CAUSE ERRATIC BURNER COMBUSTION
AND INEFFICIENT, UNEVEN HEATING. THE
GRILL SHOULD BE LEVEL IN ALL DIRECTIONS.
ADJUSTMENTS MAY NEED TO BE MADE EACH TIME
WHEN MOVING A FREESTANDING UNIT.
CONSTRUCTION ZONES
Keep all stainless steel products away from
construction zones. Construction debris such as
(but not limited to) stone dust, stucco, and lime
dust could damage or permanently discolor
stainless steel products. Keep all caustic chemicals
including chlorine and pool cleaning products
away from stainless steel at all times.
TESTING FOR LEAKS
Create a soapy water solution of 1 part soap and
3 parts water. Confirm that all control knobs are
in the off position. Turn on the fuel supply. For
natural gas, turn the valve handle ¼ turn to align
with the gas flow. For LP, turn the cylinder valve
counter clockwise one full rotation. Apply the
soap solution generously by paint brush or squirt
bole on all connections and fiings. If bubble
appear to grow on any of the connections, you
have a gas leak. IMMEDIATELY turn off the gas
supply. Wash off the soapy solution with cold
water and dry. Tighten the loose joint or replace
the faulty part with manufacturer-recommended
replacement parts. DO NOT aempt to repair the
L.P. cylinder valve if it is damaged. The only way
to safely resolve a damaged cylinder is to replace
it by calling an authorized gas appliance service
technician or an LP gas dealer. Repeat the leak
test to ensure that no leaks are present. Do not
use the appliance until the leak is corrected.
