INSTALLATION Natural Gas Grills

Locating Your Grill

•Your Ducane® Gas Grill is manufactured for outdoor use only! Any grill, charcoal or gas, produces carbon monoxide while in operation and the gas should not be allowed to accumulate in a confined area. Never operate this grill inside your home or recreational vehicle or any enclosed area.

•When locating your grill, choose a safe outdoor location away from flammable or combustible surfaces and out of traffic paths. Ducane® strongly recommends a 24” clearance to combustible surfaces.

•Consult your local codes for possible additional restrictions on location or operation of your grill.

•As your grill uses gas, it requires air to burn properly. Do not locate your grill in such manner or as to obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air around the grill.

•When possible, adjust your grills’ position to reduce the likelihood of wind blowing onto it.

CAUTION: Never operate your grill under any overhead com- bustible construction.

CAUTION: This grill is not intended to be installed in or at- tached to a recreational vehicle. It is also not intended to be installed in or on a boat.

WARNING: For your safety, do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance. Failure to follow this warning could lead to a fire, explosion and bodily harm.

Assembly

Make sure your grill is assembled properly. Detailed assembly instructions are packed with each grill giving specific assembly procedures for each model. Follow these in- structions carefully to ensure the correct and safe assembly of the grill.

CAUTION: Although we take every effort to ensure that the assembly process is as easy and as safe as possible, it is inherent with fabricated steel parts that corners and edges can cause cuts if improperly handled during assembly pro- cedures. Be careful while handling any parts during assem- bly. It is strongly recommended that you protect hands with a pair of work gloves.
