BUILT-IN INSTALLATIONS
Th
is built-in grill is designed for easy installation into 
masonry enclosures.
NOTE: Built-in grills are intended either for installation in a 
built-in enclosure constructed of non-combustible materi-
als or for an installation in a built in enclosure constructed 
of combustible material when installed with a insulating 
jacket.
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 enclo-
sure, the jacket must be supported from the bottom by a 
ledge on each side or a full deck beneath the jacket.
(See INDEX: “Gas Requirements”) Pay special attention to 
the provisions shown for gas line hook-up.
The enclosure should have ventilation holes to prevent gas 
build-up in the event of a leak. The deck ledges and coun-
ter should be fl at and level. (refer to ANSI Z21.58 Standard 
for Outdoor Cooking Gas Appliances, Section 1.7 Enclo-
sures For Self Contained LP-Gas Supply Systems)
This grill requires that a 120 volt, 60 hertz, 15 amp GFI 
certifi ed outlet be installed by a qualifi ed electrician.
CLEARANCE TO COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS
Minimum clearance from the sides and back of the grill to 
adjacent combustible construction below the counter top 
surface is 12” from the sides and 6 1/4” from the back of 
the hood. 
Minimum clearance from sides and back of grill to ad-
jacent combustible construction extending above the 
counter top surface is 12” from the sides and 6 1/4” from 
the back. 
Do not use this appliance under unprotected overhead 
combustible surfaces. 
A minimum of 6” of clearance is needed on the left side of 
the grill above the counter top for the motor and skewer. 
If the grill is to be placed into a combustible enclosure, an   
approved insulated jacket is necessary and is available 
only from your Viking Range, LLC dealer. Insulated jackets 
have been designed and tested specifi cally for your grill.
