GAS CONNECTIONS
Gas Cylinder
Use a propane cylinder of minimum 6 kg or a butane cylinder of 13 kg constructed
and marked in accordance with national and regional codes. Ensure that the cylinder
can provide enough fuel to operate the appliance. If in doubt, check with your local
gas supplier.
Note: For optimal performance, operate the grill on propane gas.
Only cylinders connected to the appliance may be stored in the enclosure. Only place
cylinders within the maximum width and height dimensions in the built in enclosure.
Spare cylinders must not be stored in the enclosure, or in close proximity with an
operating unit.
Hook-up and Installation
1. Check the cylinder for dents or rust, and have it inspected by your
propane supplier. Never use a cylinder with a damaged valve.
2. Place the cylinder in its designated area in the enclosure.
3. Ensure the gas regulator hose has no twists or kinks.
4. Remove the cap or plug from the cylinder fuel valve.
5. Tighten the regulator to the cylinder valve.
6. Ensure the hose does not contact with the drip pan or any high
temperature surfaces of the grill because it will melt and cause a
fire.
7. Ensure the cylinder is not left exposed to extreme heat or direct
sunlight.
8. Leak test all joints prior to operating the grill. See “Leak Test”.

To a Gas House Supply Line
This grill must operate with a gas supply pressure as stated on the rating plate for natural gas. If the gas supply exceeds these
requirements a regulator must be installed upstream of the grill’s components. If the gas supply is lower than the requirements,
the unit will be under fired and will not reach the maximum temperatures.
Use a gas pressure regulator and hose supplied by Napoleon; if not included, use a regulator and hose that meet national and
regional codes.
The recommended length of the hose is 0.9m. The hose must never be longer than 1.5m. Check the hose regularly for rips
melting or wear. Replace if needed. The piping up to the grill is the responsibility of the installer.
Note: The hose should be replaced before the expiry date printed on it.
• The gas pipe must be sized to supply the kW specified on the rating plate, based on the length of the piping run.
• If you are installing a side burner, a separate gas line must be branched off to the unit through a specific opening in that
location.
1. A readily accessible manual shut-off valve must be installed upstream of the unit. A flexible metal connector is included to
simplify the installation. Connect the other end of the connector to the gas piping.
2. Tighten using two wrenches. Do not use thread sealer or pipe dope.
3. Ensure that the connector does not pass through a wall, floor, ceiling or partition, and is protected from damage.
4. Leak test all joints prior to operating the grill. See "Leak Test".
Applicable to:
WARNING! The connectors must be of rigid pipe, copper tube or approved flexible metal which must comply
with national and regional codes.
WARNING! Do not store a spare gas cylinder below the grill head or side burners.
WARNING! Never use a gas cylinder that is beyond 80% full.
WARNING! Follow all specifications and instructions exactly to prevent fire, explosion, property damage, personal
injury, or death.
WARNING! Disconnect the grill and its individual shutoff valve from the gas supply piping system during any
pressure testing.
