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 tra c 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 air ow. Built-in grill located
in areas with prevailing winds should be
protected by a wind barrier, wind de ector, 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 fil 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” ing added. This drop in
pressure a ects 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. Con rm 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 ow. 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 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.

GAS REQUIREMENTS
FILLING AND REFILLING LP GAS CYLINDERS
All purging and re lling of LP gas cylinders
must be performed by quali ed personnel in
the LP gas industry. Never store a spare LP gas
cylinder under or near this appliance.
Never ll the LP gas cylinder beyond 80 percent
full. Failure to follow these instructions may
result in explosion, personal injury or death.
LP gas grill models are designed for use with
a standard 20 lb. liquid propane gas (LP) tank
with type (1) valve connections. (Not included)
Never connect your gas grill to an LP tank that
exceeds this capacity. A tank of approximately 12
inches in diameter by 18-1/2 inches high is the
maximum size LP gas tank to use. A propane
tank with an OPD (Over ll Prevention Device)
must be used. This safety feature prevents the
tank from being over- lled which can cause
malfunction of the LP gas tank, regulator and/
or grill.
The LP cylinder must be constructed and
marked in accordance with the speci cations
for LP gas cylinders of the U.S. Department
of Transportation (DOT) and designed for use
with a Type 1 system only. Be sure to read and
follow all LP connection instructions.
A dented or rusty LP cylinder may be
hazardous and should be avoided. If in
doubt, have it checked by your LP supplier.
Always check for leaks a er every LP cylinder
change. (See Checking For Leaks)
Cylinders must be stored outdoors in a well-
ventilated area out of the reach of children.
If your grill is stored indoors, the LP cylinder
must be stored outside, in upright position
and away from excessive heat.
CONNECTING TO A SIDE BURNER
You will need a ‘T’ adapter ing (not
provided) or similar connection to connect
a single gas line to both a side burner and
a grill. We recommend a licensed gas
technician install all gas lines. See below
gure for installation of a ‘T’ adapter.

MAINTENANCE TIPS
PRE-HEATING THE GRILL
Pre-heating your grill every time you use it
is extremely important. Pre-heating allows
the brique es to properly heat up, providing
more even and more consistent cooking
results. Pre-heat your grill by igniting all main
burners. Then close the hood and allow the
grill to heat for 10 to 15 minutes, the hood
thermometer should reach approximately
450°. Once you’ve reached your desired
pre-heat temperature, turn off the burners
that you won’t be using to cook your food.
Remember, surface temperature can be up to

MAINTENANCE TIPS
CLEANING THE DRIP TRAY
The drip tray should be cleaned a er each use.
A er the grill is completely cool, remove the drip
tray by pulling it out until it stops, then li ing
the front edge until the drip tray comes free.
Clean it with hot soapy water or an oven-style
cleaning product and re-install. When using an
oven-style cleaning product be sure to carefully
LOW FLAME ADJUSTMENT
MAINTENANCE TIPS
Routinely wash with warm soapy water and
apply stainless steel polish to protect grill
exterior
STAINLESS STEEL NEEDS TO BE CLEANED?!?
ABSOLUTELY!
Stainless steels need to be cleaned for aesthetic
considerations and to preserve corrosion
resistance. Stainless steel is protected from
corrosion by a thin layer of chromium oxide.
Oxygen from the atmosphere combines with
the chromium in the stainless steel to form
this passive chromium oxide lm that protects
from further corrosion. Any contamination of
the surface by dirt, or other material, hinders
this passivation process and traps corrosive
agents reducing corrosion protection. Thus,
routine cleaning is necessary to preserve the
appearance and integrity of the surface.
• To Adjust the Burner to a Low Se ing:
• Make sure the grill is cool
• Remove the racks so you can see the
ames while adjusting the burners
• Light the burner and allow it to preheat
on high for 3 minutes
• Turn the burner to “LOW”
• Pull off he control knob
• Use a at head screw driver and adjust
the “gold athead screw” in the valve
to the proper ame height
GRILL EXTERIOR
STAINLESS STEEL MAINTENANCE
When removing stubborn stains:
• Do not use metallic abrasives and
always rub in the direction of the grain
• Some household cleaning products
are not suitable for stainless steel; be
sure to read the label before using on
the grill
• Always use the mildest cleaning
solution rst, scrubbing in the direction
of the grain
• Specks of grease may gather in the
grain of the stainless steel and bake on
to the surface, giving the appearance
of rust
• To remove these baked-on foods use
a ne to medium grit non-metallic
abrasive pad (Scotch Brite is good)
in conjunction with a stainless-steel
cleaner
• Solutions used for cleaning concrete
and masonry can be very corrosive and
will ‘a ack’ stainless steel
• Be sure your Summerset products
are well protected before using these
products
A er each use wipe down the exterior of the
grill to remove grease and spla ers. Use a
commercially available stainless steel cleaner
to clean and polish the exterior surfaces.
Doing these things on a regular basis
minimizes the amount of e ort required
• Burn off excess food debris and
marinades for 15 minutes a er cooking
• Once the unit is cool, turn over the
burner covers and burn the top side
(the burner covers are reversible and
are able to be mounted upside down
for cleaning purposes)
• Use an approved stainless-steel oven
cleaner to remove grease build up
• Routinely have a professional barbecue
cleaning company detail the barbecue
for best results and longevity
GRILL INTERIOR
follow the manufacturer’s instructions. Many of
these cleaners are toxic and can damage the
stainless-steel nish if not used properly. Also,
check the tray a er rain. If you’ve left the grill
uncovered, you may need to remove the drip
tray to drain the water from the tray.

GRILL FEATURES
A er your rst use, certain areas of the grill
may discolor from the intense heat given o
by the burners - this is normal and cannot
be cleaned o . For light and heavy food
stains there are many di erent stainless-steel
cleaners available.
ROTISSERIE INSTALLATION
CAUTION: When using the back burner,
keep the grill lid closed to prevent heat loss,
provide proper convection and provide
proper venting. This will ensure even cooking
temperatures.
1. Remove the warming rack, cooking
grates, and cooking grates if necessary
2. Mount the rotisserie motor bracket on
either side of the grill nearest the outlet
3. Slide the rotisserie motor onto the
rotisserie motor bracket
4. Insert rotisserie spit (rotisserie rod) into
motor
5. Place 1st fork onto the rotisserie spit and

mindful of heat dispersion.
Do not use the rotisserie motor in the rain. Do
not leave the motor on the grill when not in
use.
IMPORTANT: Turn the back burner to low or
off when stopping the rotisserie to prevent
over cooking
HEAT-ZONE SEPARATOR INSTALLATION
To install the heat zone separators, please
insert the heat zone separators as shown in
the gure below.
OPTIONAL DROP-IN SEAR BURNER
INSTALLATION
The preferred location to install a drop-in sear
burner is on the far left of the grill. This will
allow for a sear zone while maximizing the
main burner grilling space. To install a drop-in
sear burner:
• Remove the grate and burner covers to
access the main burner
• Remove the co er pin securing the
main burner (if necessary)
• Remove main burner
• Remove cross tube in between main
burners allowing for drop-in sear
burner to rest at, if necessary
• Install sear burner with the center of
the ori ce positioned in the center of
the burner and rest the back of sear
burner at on the rear of the grill. There
is a locating pin in the rear of the sear
burner that must be seated correctly.

#304 stainless steel materials used in the
construction of your Summerset Professional
Grill are highly rust resistant, however,
chlorine in the air from swimming pools or
the salt from sea air may cause surface rust to
appear and even create some pi ing if left on
the product. Here are a few tips to avoid this:
• Regularly wipe down the exterior
surfaces with a damp cloth (micro ber
towels work well)
• Allow the surfaces to dry before
installing the cover Do not cover a
damp grill
• In extreme environments apply a rust
inhibitor which leaves a microscopic
protective layer on the grill
• For seasonal storage use the product
referred to above, ensure the grill is
dry, then cover and secure the cover
to minimize the amount of damp air
ge ing to the surfaces
