Built-In Instructions — 8450 Series
WARNING
The 8450 Series grill can be installed as a built-in grill. If installed as a built-in grill, the outdoor cooking center must be constructed of non-combustiblematerial.
PLANNING AND DESIGN
Start by identifying the number and size of components you want to include in your outdoor cooking center. Countertops must be constructed of non-combustible, outdoor-safe materials. Consider outdoor lighting to illuminate after-dark grilling. For assistance in designing and building your outdoor cooking center, contact a landscape architect or general contractor. Review the drawings on the following pages to determine the exact dimensions and items needed for an outdoor cooking center. Keep in mind that the gas line hook-up is on the right hand side of the main built in-grill. The structure, grill and support items must be kept level throughout the installation to ensure proper operation.
LOCATION
Take into account convenience and visual impact as well as traffic flow, wind exposure, and the site’s structural suitability. The grill should never be placed in an enclosed area without an approved ventilation system, or beneath a combustible overhang. Because the grill exhausts to the rear, it should never be located in front of a window or less than 12” from hard-to-clean surfaces. We recommend keeping your gas supply lines as short as possible for best performance. To ensure a perfect fit, we strongly recommend that you have all components on hand prior to final construction.
CLEARANCE TO NON-COMBUSTIBLE CONSTRUCTION
For your safety a minimum of 3” clearance from the back of the grill to non-combustible construction is required. You should allow at least 6” side clearance to non-combustible construction. The side vents on this unit can be covered for built in installations without danger of fire or without impairing the operation of the grill.
UTILITIES
For natural gas grills, consult your local gas utility company for hook-up requirements. All gas connections should be made by a certified technician or a gas supply company. For natural gas installation, the supply line must be at least 1/2” diameter. The rotisserie requires a 110/120 volt electric supply and GFI receptacle. (6.5 amp min.) that should be installed by a qualified electrical technician. If your plan includes a sink, arrange for a certified plumbing technician to run a water line to the site.
ELECTRICAL GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
The optional rotisserie kit is equipped with a three-prong (grounding) plug for your protection against shock hazard and should be plugged directly into a properly grounded three-prong receptacle. Do not cut or remove the grounding prong from this plug.
