Gas Supply Requirements

WARNING

Explosion Hazard

Use a new CSA International approved “outdoor” gas supply line.

Securely tighten all gas connections.

If connected to LP, have a qualified person make sure gas pressure does not exceed 11” (28 cm) water column.

Examples of a qualified person include:

licensed heating personnel,

authorized gas company personnel, and authorized service personnel.

Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.

Observe all governing codes and ordinances.

IMPORTANT: This installation must conform with all local codes and ordinances. In the absence of local codes, installation must conform with American National Standard National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1 -latest edition or CAN/CGA B149.1 -latest edition.

IMPORTANT: Grill must be connected to a regulated gas supply.

Input ratings shown on the model/serial rating plate are for elevations up to 2,000 feet (610 m). For elevations above 2,000 feet (610 m), ratings are reduced at a rate of 4% for each 1,000 feet (305 m) above sea level. Orifice conversion is required. Contact KitchenAid Assistance Center.

Refer to the model/serial rating plate for information on the type of gas that can be used. If this information does not agree with the type of gas available, check with your local gas supplier.

No attempt shall be made to convert the grill from the gas specified on the model/serial rating plate for use with a different gas type without consulting the serving gas supplier. The conversion kits specified must be used.
