cylinders are highly ammable.
• Any Children should never be left alone
or unattended in an area where a grill
is located. Place your grill well away
from areas where children play. Do not
store items that may interest children in
or around the grill, in the cart, or in the
enclosure or Island.
• Never move the grill when hot. When in
use, portions of the grill are hot enough
to cause severe burns.
• Always maintain the required clearances
from combustibles as detailed. The grill is
designed for outdoor use only. Never use
in a garage, building, shed, breezeway,
or other enclosed area. Do not use this
grill under any unprotected overhead
combustible construction. Combustible
material exposed to heat will catch on re.
• Gas grills are not designed or certied
for and are not to be installed in or on
recreational vehicles, portable trailers,
boats or any other moving installation
including commercial use.
• Always have a Fire Extinguisher
accessible — never attempt to extinguish
a grease re with water or other liquids.
• Store your grill in a well-ventilated area.
If stored indoors, detach and leave L.P.
cylinder outdoors in a well-ventilated
area away from heat and away from
where children may tamper with it.
Always leave tank outdoors.
• Keep any electrical supply cord and the
fuel supply hose away from any heated
surfaces. Electrical cords should be
placed away from walkways to avoid
tripping hazard.
• Do not repair or replace any part of the grill
unless specically recommended in this
manual. Other service should be performed
by a certied and qualied Gas and BBQ
technician.
• If the grill is installed by a professional
installer or technician, be sure that he/
she shows you where your gas supply
shut-o is located. All gas lines must
have a shut-o that is readily and easily
accessible. If you smell gas, check for
gas leaks immediately. Check only with a
soap and water solution. Never check for
gas leaks with an open ame.
• Inspect the L.P. gas supply hose prior to
each use of the grill. If there is evidence
of excessive abrasion or wear, or the
hose is cut, it must be replaced before
using the grill.
• The outdoor cooking gas appliance
and its individual shut-o valve must be
disconnected from the gas supply piping
system during any pressure testing of
that system at test pressures in excess
of 0.5 psi (3.5 kPa).
• The outdoor cooking gas appliance must
be isolated from the gas supply piping
system by closing its individual manual
shut-o valve during any pressure testing
of the gas supply piping system at test
pressures equal to or less
than 1/2 psi (3.5 kPa).

NOTICE: COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS
GRILL LOCATION
Grill Location
• Never install this product into a combustible enclosure. Doing so could result in re,
property damage and personal injury. Combustible material is "anything" that can
catch on re.
• Never locate the grill under a roof or overhang, in a building, garage, shed or other
such enclosed area.
• Installation must conform with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with either
the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, Natural Gas and propane Installation
Code, CSA B149.1, or Propane Storage and Handling Code, B149.2, in Canada.
WHERE IS THE WIND COMING FROM?
When selecting a suitable location, consider
important factors such as exposure to the
wind and foot-trac patterns.
If you have a free standing grill, position it
so the prevailing wind blows into the front
control panel (at your back when grilling),
supporting the proper front of BBQ to
rear of BBQ airow. Built-in grills located
in areas with prevailing winds should be
protected by a wind barrier.
Winds hitting the back of the grill directly
may cause problems, as well as wind
blowing along the hood opening
HOW LONG IS YOUR GAS RUN GOING
TO BE?
Keep all gas supply lines as short as
possible because gas lines lose pressure
over distance and with each elbow and tee
that is added. This drop in pressure aects
grill performance.
CHECK THE BBQ IS LEVEL?
Proper leveling during installation is critical.
A grill that is out of level will cause erratic
burner combustion and inecient, uneven
heating. A carpenter’s spirit level should be
used to level the grill both front-to-back and
side-to-side.
If the oor is uneven or has a decided slope,
re-leveling may be required each time you
move a freestanding unit.
WARNING
! !
Be sure wind doesn’t blow into the back of the hood gap.
BR0227-1-0423Page 10
Location Of Your Grill
USING YOUR GRILL IN WINDY
CONDITIONS:
• As a high-performance gas appliance,
your BROILMASTER grill requires
signicant amounts of air to support
the burner combustion process. Your
grill has been engineered to take air
in through the control panel area, and
exhaust the combustion out through the
gap between the front and rear hoods
• Using your grill in windy conditions can
disrupt the proper ow of air through your
grill, leading to reduced performance,
or in certain severe cases, causing heat
buildup in the control panel area. This
can lead to problems such as having
the control knobs getting hot or melting,
or burn hazards when the control panel
surfaces become too hot to touch.
• If you have a freestanding grill, it is best
to position the unit so the prevailing wind
blows into the front control panel (or at
your back), thus supporting the proper
airow. Winds hitting the back of the
grill directly are the most likely to cause
problems, although wind blowing along
the hood gap can also be a problem.
• Please note that damage to your grill
resulting from use in windy conditions,
such as melted knobs or igniter wires,
or control panel discoloration from heat
build-up, are excluded from warranty
coverage.
• Outdoor grilling can create more heat than
indoor kitchen ranges.
BUT THERE ARE A FEW THINGS
YOU CAN DO TO FURTHER PREVENT
THE POSSIBILITY OF IMPROPER
HEAT BUILDUP:
• If you suspect the grill is overheating,
using an heat resistant mitt, open the
front hood. Then adjust the burner
control knob to a lower setting. Do
not grab the knobs without testing the
temperature of them.
• Install your grill with a wind break
behind it. This is a wall, fence or
anything that will disrupt the wind
directly hitting the gas grill.
• Situate the grill so prevailing winds are
not blowing into the rear of the grill.
• On windy days, be careful not to
leave the hood down for more than 15
minutes when the burners are on high.
(Never leave the grill unattended when
in operation)
Wind hitting the back of the grill can disrupt proper exhaust.

• The grill drops into the cutout opening
and sits on the sides and back of the
grill. There is no need to fasten the grill
to the island. The gas grill must be able
to be removed for general maintenance
so do not grout sides or fasten in.
• For the hood to open there is a minimum
of 5" clearance behind the hood. There
is a required 12" clearance on each
side of the Gas Grill. Remember that
combustible materials should not be
located behind the grill, because the
5" space doesn't satisfy the distance
required from a combustible surface.
See below clearance to combustibles
.
CLEARANCE TO COMBUSTIBLE
CONSTRUCTION:
Minimum clearance from sides and back of
unit to adjacent combustible construction
below top of unit are 16" from sides and
16" from back. Use your grill at least 16"
away from any wall or surface.
Use your grill 16" or more away from
any combustible objects that can melt or
catch re such as vinyl or wood siding,
fences, overhangs, or any other sources
of ignition; including pilot lights and live
electrical appliances.
Do not use your grill under any overhead
combustible construction. Never use
your gas grill in a garage, porch, shed,
breezeway, or any other enclosed area.
Never use your gas grill on a balcony,
deck, or patio above the ground oor of
your home.
BUILT IN LOCATION:
• The BROILMASTER Built in model is
designed for easy installation into a
non-combustible masonry enclosure.
• The BBQ must be surrounded by
non-combustible material like Brick or
Hardibacker and must not be installed
in an island made of combustible
material.

BURNER TYPE IDENTIFICATION
DIRECT COOKING METHOD / INDIRECT COOKING METHOD
Burner Type Identication
Your BROILMASTER grill comes standard with a Cast Stainless Steel burners and an
infrared rotisserie burner.
Using the BROILMASTER Grill
This BROILMASTER grilling requires high heat for searing and proper browning of your
food. Most direct foods are cooked at the high heat setting for the entire cooking time (with
the lid open). However, when grilling large pieces of meat or poultry, it may be necessary
to turn the heat to a lower setting after the initial browning. This cooks the food through
without burning the outside. Foods cooked for a long time or foods basted with a marinade
may need a lower heat setting near the end of the cooking time.
MAIN BURNER

DIRECT COOKING METHOD / INDIRECT COOKING METHOD
Direct Cooking Method
Direct cooking involves placing food on grates over direct heat Burners. Use this method
for foods that take less than 20 minutes to cook or to sear larger items at the start of the
cooking process that will then be indirectly cooked to nish. Place items on the preheated
surface and leave until they no longer stick. Turning too soon and too often is one of the
most common grilling mistakes. Use a meat thermometer to achieve desired doneness
and remove items one degree below how you would like to enjoy them, as the resting
period before carving or consuming will raise the temperature.
Indirect Cooking Method
Indirect cooking method is a popular alternative to direct heat grilling. Indirect cooking
uses heat from adjacent burners to cook food and, in many cases, reduces the possibility
of overcooked or overly browned food. Foods most appropriate for indirect grilling included
breads, thicker pieces of chicken or roasts. Indirect cooking involves placing the food on
grates where the burners below are not lit and then closing the grill top to create an oven
eect. All the items you usually oven-roast can be grilled to perfection using indirect
heating. Preheat the burners surrounding the food to be cooked. Use your basting pan
below to hold food and add water or marinaid to the pan to prevent the natural juices
from burning or evaporating. Place pan on the vaporizers directly under the food above.

BR0227-1-0423Page 30
THE BROILMASTER IR rotisserie system
consists of three main parts
-
the motor,
the skewer which holds the food, and the
infrared rotis back burner. The rotisserie
evenly cooks large cuts of meat by turning
them continuously in front of a high heat
burner. The rotis is capable of turning up
to a 25 lb. cut of meat. Make sure the rotis
motor is not straining when turning the meat
/ chicken.
THE MOTOR
-
The rotisserie motor runs on
110 power that has its own power supply.
To power the motor, plug into a 110 power
outlet or use a outdoor extension cord.
Install the motor onto the grill by sliding it
onto the bracket located on the left or right
side of the grill. (Bracket is removable and
universal for each side)
THE SKEWER
-
To load the skewer with
food, slide one of the meat holders onto
the skewer. Push the skewer through the
center of the food, then slide the second
meat holder onto the skewer. Center the
food to be cooked on the skewer then push
the meat holders rmly together. Tighten
the thumb screws (use pliers if necessary).
It may also be necessary to wrap the food
with cooking string to secure any loose
portions.
WARMING RACK
-
Remove the warming
rack and, if needed, remove the grill racks
to gain better clearance. It is normal for the
skewer to ex when cooking large foods.
Place a cooking pan with water or marinaid
beneath the food for basting and to ease
cleaning.
THE INFRARED REAR BURNER
-
The
location of the rotis burner makes it more
susceptible to strong wind conditions (more
so than the main grill burners). For this
reason you should avoid operating the rotis
cooking during windy conditions. As an
added safety feature, the burner is equipped
with an automatic safety valve which will not
allow gas to ow to the rotis burner if it is not
properly lit or goes out.

Cooking Tips
COOK FOOD TO PROPER TEMPERATURES
Cooking food safely requires that you raise the internal temperature of the meat high enough
and for a long enough period of time to kill any food-borne bacteria that may cause illnesses.
Color is not the best indicator that food is safe to eat. Use a high-quality probe thermometer
to be sure your food is properly cooked. Place the tip of an instant-read thermometer into the
center of the thickest part of the food but at least 1/2 inch deep. Read the temperature after
about 10 seconds. Follow the temperature guidelines for the type of food you’re cooking.
The following guidelines are from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration Center for Food
Safety and Applied Nutritio

Burner Cleaning And Adjustment
Before removing burners ensure the gas
supply is o and the knobs are in the “o ”
position. Make sure the grill has completely
cooled before proceeding.
TO REMOVE BURNERS:
Remove the grill racks, vaporizers and
zone dividers. Remove the pin holding the
burner in place. Grasp the burner, pull it
up and slightly to the rear of the unit, so
the burner head comes o the brass orice
at the front and remove. Be careful not to
upset the air shutter position.
BURNER CLEANING:
To maximize grill performance, clean
the exterior of the burner with a wire
brush. Clear stubborn scale with a metal
scraper. Clear any clogged ports with
a straightened paper clip. Never use a
wooden toothpick as it may break o
and clog the port. Shake out any debris
through the air shutter. Use a ashlight to
inspect the burner inlet to ensure it is not
blocked. If obstructions can be seen, use
a metal wire coat hanger that has been
straightened out to clean.
BETTER AIR ADJUSTMENT:
Each grill burner is tested and adjusted
at the factory prior to shipment; however,
variations in the local gas supply or a
conversion from one gas to another may
make it necessary to adjust the burners.
The ames of the Grill burners should be
visually checked, adjusting the air shutter by
opening the air shutter and slowly closing
it until the ame starts to yellow. STOP
and turn back 1/16", and tighten the screw.
Flame should be blue with yellow tips when
adjusted correctly.

Cleaning The Grill (Cont'd.)
CLEANING EXTERIOR STAINLESS
STEEL SURFACES:
Routine care and maintenance is required
to preserve the appearance and corrosion
resistance of stainless steel. The fact is
stainless steel can corrode, rust and discolor
under certain conditions. Rust is caused when
regular steel particles in the atmosphere
become attached to the stainless steel
surface. Steel particles can also become
attached to your grill if you use steel wool
or sti wire brushes to clean the grill instead
of non-abrasive cloth, sponge or nylon
cleaning tools. In coastal areas rust pits can
develop on stainless surfaces that cannot
be fully removed. Bleach and other chlorine
based solutions used for household and
pool cleaning can also cause corrosion to
stainless steel. Weathering, extreme heat,
smoke from cooking and machine oils used in
the manufacturing process of stainless steel
can cause stainless steel to turn tan in color.
Although there are many factors which can
aect the surface appearance of stainless
steel, they do not aect the integrity of the
steel or the performance of the grill.
TO HELP MAINTAIN THE FINISH OF
STAINLESS STEEL FOLLOW THESE
CLEANING PROCEDURES FOR THE
BEST RESULTS:
1. After every use (after your grill has
cooled down), wipe stainless surfaces
with a soft, soapy cloth or sponge then
rinse with water.
2. Be sure to remove all food particles,
sauces or marinades from stainless
steel because these can be highly acidic
and damaging to stainless surfaces.
Never use abrasive cleaners, scrubbers
or sti wire brushes of any type on your
grill.
3. Use a heat resistant Stainless Steel
Cleaner and rub or wipe in the direction
of the stainless steel grain or polish
lines. Do not polish against the grain.

DO NOT TOUCH THE GLASS OF THE
NEW REPLACEMENT BULB.
Replace The Bulb
Replacement bulbs are halogen, 12 volt,
10W max, T3 type with a G4 bi-pin, and are
readily available at most stores. The glass
cover is held in place by two spring tension
tabs. The bulbs are easily removable
without the use of tools.
Simply grasp the glass lens at the outer
corners, near the front tension clips and
push the lens back.
Then, swing the lens down and pull it
loose. You may have to loosen the screw to
remove the lens.
Avoid touching the glass of a new bulb.
Halogen bulbs are very sensitive to the oils
found in human skin. Touching the bulbs
may shorten their life. Pull the bulb straight
out from the socket without twisting. Hold
the bulb using a paper towel or other cloth
and gently press it straight into the socket.
The glass cover should be gently snapped
back into place.
