assist in proper airow during windy conditions. See Fig. 20-2.
GAS-SUPPLY PLUMBING REQUIREMENTS
The gas supply is to be routed into the enclosure, near the unit. Your
individual installation may vary. Observe the National Fuel Gas Code
and all local codes. Leak test at all connections.
The gas supply must be sized to provide minimum inlet pressure
at the maximum ow rate (BTU/hr). Undue pressure loss will occur
if the pipe is too small, or the run is too long. Gas supply pipe must be
½" minimum interior diameter. If the gas line is longer than 20', a larger
diameter line may be necessary. Refer to the NFPA 54 guidelines for
further details.
DO NOT use a rubber hose within the enclosure.
A C.S.A. approved stainless steel ex connector (with attached
regulator) is included and pre-installed to the valve manifold, and routes
to the gas supply. The use of any rigid pipe, semi-rigid tubing, and
connectors must comply with the Standard for Connectors for Outdoor
Gas Appliances and Manufactured Homes, ANSI Z21. 75 (CSA 6.27).
Use a pipe joint compound resistant to all gasses on all NPT pipe
ttings. Make sure to tighten every tting securely. Do not use pipe
joint compound to connect are ttings.
Important: A shut-o valve (not included) in the gas supply
line is required. It must be installed within 6 feet of the unit and
must be easily accessible. Use a pipe joint compound resistant to all
gasses on all NPT pipe ttings except are ttings. Refer to NFPA
54 guidelines for further details.
GAS SUPPLY INLET PRESSURES:
For natural gas - normal 7" water column (w.c.), minimum 5", maximum
10

Fig. 29-1 Install vaporizer panels
Place onto studs
LEAK TEST
Turn all burner valves to the OFF position. Turn on the
gas supply, and test at all connections for leaks using a
soapy water solution. If bubbles appear, a leak is present.
Turn o the gas and tighten at all connections. Repeat
until no leaks are present. If a leak persists, turn o the
gas supply and contact the local gas company or dealer.
NEVER USE A FLAME TO CHECK FOR LEAKS.
Once the leak test is complete, turn o the gas supply
and proceed.
INSTALL VAPORIZER PANELS
Place the vaporizer panels directly onto the studs on the
burners. See Fig. 29-1. The panels allow heat from the
burners to be evenly distributed throughout the cooking
area. The panels are stainless steel and will heat and cool
quickly, making your grill very responsive to the changes
you specify in grill temperature. They are rust resistant
and may be cleaned with standard oven cleaners. Some
discoloring will be seen with use. This is normal for
stainless steel and does not aect the function.
INSTALL COOKING GRIDS
Note: Wear heat-resistant gloves if necessary.
Note: Do not leave the lifter on any hot surfaces.
1. With the prongs facing downward, insert the notched-
end of the lifter between two grid rods, then rotate,
as shown in Fig. 29-2, A & B.
Note: To balance, insert the notched-end of the lifter
in the middle front half of the cooking grid.
2. Insert the rear pointed-end of the lifter between the
same two rods (Fig. 29-2, B) and carefully lift the
cooking grid and place onto the front and rear grid
rests of the grill (see Fig. 29-3). Repeat for all other
cooking grids.
INSTALL DRIP TRAY
Your grill includes a pack of four drip tray liners. Place
a liner into the drip tray. The liner must t under the two
front tabs of the drip tray. Insert the drip tray into the slot
found below the front panel and slide it in completely.
See Fig. 29-4.
INSTALL WARMING RACK
The warming rack (Fig. 29-5) is packed separately. To
install the warming rack, carefully insert the rack hangers
into the two holes in the back of the inner oven hood,
then lower the front of the rack to a level position.
Note: Removing the warming rack before using the
rotisserie will leave more clearance for the meat
being cooked (if applicable).

Your grill requires regular cleaning and maintenance. Refer to these instructions for details. Performing these procedures
will ensure proper operation, appearance, and safety.
WARNINGS
• Prior to servicing or cleaning make sure the unit is completely cool, the control knobs are turned to the OFF position,
the gas supply is shut o, the light switch is o, and the power supply is disconnected (as applicable and unless
otherwise stated).
• Wear appropriate gloves and safety glasses during any servicing or cleaning.
• DO NOT spray any cleaner or liquids on the grill when hot.
• The grill MUST be cleaned regularly to prevent grease build-up and other food deposits. A clean and well maintained
grill prevents the risk of grease build-up and grease res.
• Verify proper operation after servicing or deep cleaning.
• See INSTALLATION, OPERATION, AND SAFETY INFORMATION section for additional related information.
CLEANING YOUR GRILL
Before Each Use
1. Inspect and clean the exterior surfaces of the unit: With a cool grill, clean any dust, grease, splatter, or spills as needed
with a damp clean cloth.
After Each Use
1. Perform a burn-o and clean the cooking grids: Operate the grill on high with the hood closed for 15 minutes to burn-o
food and grease and allow for an easier cooking grid clean. Then turn OFF the grill and use a grill brush or scraper to
clean the cooking grids of all residue. Use long-handled insulated BBQ tools and wear an insulated glove / oven mitt.
2. Check and clean your drip tray: When the grill is cool, carefully remove the drip tray and dispose of contents appropriately.
Clean tray in a soapy water solution if needed. For tough deposits, a copper pad can be used. Rinse and dry completely.
3. Cover your grill: Once the grill is dry and cool, cover your grill with an AOG protective cover (not included).
Twice A Year (or as needed) - Deep Clean
1. Interior of grill: In addition to cleaning the cooking grids and drip tray, a deep clean of the interior of
the grill, burners, and all components MUST be performed twice year (or as needed depending on
use). Refer to the CARE, CLEANING, & MAINTENANCE GUIDE provided with your grill, or simply
scan the QR code on the right.
Important: The burner ports and carry-over ports/slots MUST be kept clean to ensure proper ignition
and operation. The guide provides all details on cleaning.
2. Exterior of grill: With a cool grill, use a grill cleaner (or a soapy water solution)
and a clean cloth to remove grease and dirt from the outside of the grill. For
tough deposits, a copper pad can be used. Always wipe with the grain. Rinse
and dry completely. Then follow up with a stainless steel cleaner and a clean
cloth. DO NOT use other cleaners or chemicals.
If this routine cleaning is not performed, the stainless steel may become dull
and develop surface rust (due to use and atmospheric conditions). If left
uncleaned, signicant damage and pitting may occur.
Important: DO NOT use steel wool, any other metal tools, or any other cleaners/
chemicals to clean the exterior other than recommended above.
Such items promote rust.
Note: Due to the nature of stainless steel, temperatures produced by the grilling process will cause discoloration. This
can be reduced by routine cleaning.

For Environments High In Salt, Chloride, Or Other Corrosive Chemicals
When this grill is installed in a corrosive environment such as near the ocean (salt air), poolside (chlorine and/or
pool chemicals) or any other location with exposure to high salt/chloride content or corrosive chemicals/solutions,
it will be more susceptible to corrosion and MUST be maintained/cleaned more frequently.
• DO NOT store any corrosive chemicals (chlorine, hydrochloric acid, fertilizer, etc.) near your stainless steel grill.
• DO NOT allow any corrosive materials (masonry dust, debris, etc.) to settle on your stainless steel grill.
• These environments, chemicals, and materials may cause the 304 stainless steel to develop surface rust and
consequently pitting. Under these conditions the grill exterior MUST be cleaned at least monthly. Inspect your grill
often and clean accordingly.
Protecting Your Grill
An optional AOG protective cover will protect your grill when not in use. Install the cover on a cool and dry grill. DO NOT
cover a damp grill. During high humidity or after rainy conditions, remove the cover to dry trapped moisture if present. (If
the cover is installed over a damp grill it can cause surface rust.)
Ensure that the INSIDE of the cover is DRY before putting it back on the grill.

REPLACING HALOGEN BULBS
Your grill is engineered with the conveniences of
electrical power for illuminating and igniting the grill.
To replace any interior oven light, follow the instructions
below.
Important: ONLY REPLACE WITH 12V / 10 WATT
HALOGEN BULB(S).
WARNING
To protect from potentially sharp sheet metal and
glass, wear gloves and safety glasses during this
procedure.
1. Turn all burner control knobs to the OFF position
and shut o the gas supply to the grill at the
source.
2. Disconnect supply of external electrical power to

AIR SHUTTER ADJUSTMENT / BURNER
FLAME INSPECTION
Important: Air shutters are preset at the factory (see
Table 2 in MODEL SPECIFICATIONS).
However, gas conversion, altitude, or other
local conditions may make it necessary to
adjust the air shutters.
Note: Backburner air shutters are not adjustable.
Note: To verify proper settings, the flames of the
burners should be visually checked for proper
ame appearance and behavior. Light the grill
with the burner(s) on HI setting. Allow at least 2
minutes to burn. See below and Fig. 44-1. The
ames should:
• be blue and stable with little to no yellow tips
• burn quietly, and appear to touch the burner
If the ames appear unstable, yellow, noisy, or lift away
from the burner, follow the steps below.
Main Burner
Begin with a completely cool unit. Remove the
burners (see BURNER REMOVAL section). First ensure
the burner orice, ports, venturi tubes, and air shutter
openings are all clear of any insect or insect nests. If
they are blocked, clean them, reinstall the burners, and
reinspect the ames. If adjustment is still needed, allow
the unit to cool, remove the burner, and proceed to the
steps below.
1. To adjust the air shutter, loosen the adjustment
screw with a athead screwdriver. Then rotate the
shutter to open or close it. See Fig. 44-2 for details.
• Begin with the appropriate factory setting for your
model (see Table 2 if needed).
• If the ames were excessively yellow (insucient
air), open the shutter to allow more air to the
burner. If the ames were noisy and lifting o the
burner in some areas, close the shutter to allow
less air to the burner. Adjust accordingly.
Note: Make minimal adjustments. Very small changes
result in major changes in ame appearance.
2. Reinstall the burner, light the grill with the burner
on HI, and observe the ames. If needed, allow the
grill to completely cool, and repeat the adjustment
process until the proper ame is achieved.
3. Once nished, allow the unit to completely cool,
remove the burner, and tighten the adjustment
screw. Reinstall the burner.
4. Repeat for all other main burners as needed.
5. Reinstall all other components that were removed.

VALVE "LOW" SETTING ADJUSTMENT
Stability of the "low" setting on all burners may vary due to
wind direction, appliance conguration, and position. If your
burner goes out when set on low, the valve "low" setting needs
adjustment.

professional service technician.
To adjust the valve "low" setting:
1. Ensure the unit is completely cool and the knobs are
in the OFF position.
2. Remove the cooking grids and vaporizer panels.

screw a little at a time (30° to 45°) in either direction. Adjust
the screw as needed until the ame is approximately
1
/4" in
height from all the burner ports, and the ames are stable.
8. Once the appropriate setting is reached, re-install the
bezel, the control knob, and shut o the burner valve.
9. Repeat this procedure for other burner valves, if needed.
