through the post hole. It must extend high enough
to reach the grill electrical connection point (or
enough to install a junction box inside the post, not
supplied) and remain safely above the level of the
concrete when poured.
4. Remove the post, then protect the end of the electrical
supply line with a plastic bag and/or tape to avoid getting
concrete or other debris on the supply wires.
5. Pour the concrete mixture into the hole to approximately
3-5" below the ground level taking care to protect the
electrical wiring. See Fig. 32-2.
6. While the concrete is still wet, carefully lower the extended
grill post into the hole while routing the electrical wiring
through the clearance hole in the bottom of the post.
7. Orient the post assembly per plan, and support it so that
it remains in an upright, level and aligned position while
the concrete drys.
Note: The post assembly should be positioned just
above ground level to ensure that the access plate
remains accessible and can be easily removed.

-’, laissez à l’unité susamment de temps pour préchauer. Le
thermomètre n’est pas calibré pour lire les températures à 32 °F
ou en dessous. Laissez les éléments chauants se réchauer,
et l’achage reprendra un fonctionnement normal une fois que
la température de l’unité dépassera 32 °F.
Réglage De La Température De Cuisson
1. Avec le thermomètre/thermostat allumé, appuyez une fois sur le
bouton SET. Les achages de la température de cuisson et de la
sonde clignoteront. (Pendant le clignotement, n’importe quelle zone
peut être sélectionnée pour entrer dans ses réglages.) Voir Fig. 44-3,
A et B.
2. Appuyez sur la FLÈCHE VERS LE HAUT pour sélectionner les
paramètres de la température de cuisson, puis utilisez les èches
vers le haut ou vers le bas pour régler la température souhaitée.
(Fig. 44-3, C).
Note: Appuyer brièvement sur les èches ajustera par incréments de
5°. Maintenir enfoncé une FLÈCHE VERS LE HAUT ou VERS
LE BAS (pendant plusieurs secondes) ajustera rapidement la
température.
• Le réglage par défaut est de 450 °F. Le réglage minimal est de 200 °F. Le réglage maximal est de 700 °F.
Note: La température de cuisson contrôle la température à l’intérieur du gril. (Il s’agit de la fonction du thermostat)
3. Appuyez sur le bouton SET pour conrmer (ou attendez 5 secondes pour une conrmation automatique). Une
fois conrmé, l’écran reviendra à l’écran par défaut.
• L’achage de la température augmentera jusqu’à atteindre la température réglée. Une fois atteinte, la
température réglée restera achée, indépendamment de la température réelle (bien que l’ouverture/
frermeture fréquente du couvercle, les conditions environnementales et l’insertion d’aliments froids puissent
faire uctuer la température, la température réglée achera la température cible jusqu’à ce qu’une nouvelle
température soit réglée). Le point de l’élément restera allumé jusqu’à ce que la température cible soit atteinte.

SERVICING AND CLEANING
Your electric 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 unit 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 unit when hot.
• The unit MUST be cleaned regularly to prevent grease build-up and other food deposits. A clean and well maintained
unit prevents the risk of grease build-up and grease res.
• Verify proper operation after servicing or deep cleaning.
• See IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS section for additional related information.
CLEANING YOUR ELECTRIC 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.
2. Clean the glass:
• Clean the glass control panel with a non-abrasive quality brand glass cleaner and a clean gentle cloth. DO NOT
use other cleaners or chemicals to prevent scratching the glass.
• Clean the Magic View Window (interior and exterior) with a quality brand glass cleaner and clean cloth.
After Each Use
1. Clean the cooking grids: Operate at 700° F with hood closed for 10-15 minutes to burn o all grease. Turn o the
grill and brush/scrape the cooking grids to remove all residue. Use long-handled insulated BBQ tools and wear an
insulated glove / oven mitt.
Important: The cooking element is self-cleaning (it does not require manual cleaning).
2. Check and clean your drip tray: When the unit is cool, carefully remove the drip tray and dispose of contents
appropriately. If tray is equipped with a liner, dispose of the liner. Clean tray in a soapy water solution if needed. For
tough deposits, a copper pad can be used. Rinse and dry completely. Replace a new liner and insert the tray back
into the electric grill. Order more drip tray liners through your dealer.
3. Cover your grill: Once the unit is dry and cool, cover your grill with a Fire Magic 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 and all components
MUST be performed twice a year (or as needed depending on use). Follow the steps below.
a. With a cool unit, open the oven lid and remove the cooking grids and inner liners. Clean all components in a soapy
water solution, rinse, dry, and set aside. For tough deposits, a copper pad can be used. The components can also
be cleaned in a dishwasher.
Note: Refer to the parts list and INNER LINER REMOVAL section as needed.
b. Grill inner walls: use a grill cleaner and a copper pad to scrub the inner walls. Fire Magic grill cleaner is recommended.
Follow instructions provided with the grill cleaner.
Wipe down the entire surface of the inner walls with a wet, clean, heavy-duty rag. Remove all cleaner.
c. Re-install all components removed during this process.
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 grill exterior.
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. To clean the magic view window (if equipped), use a
quality brand glass cleaner. 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 cooking process will cause discoloration. This
can be reduced by routine cleaning.
3. Glass surfaces: For hard water stains on glass, it is recommended to clean the glass using a white vinegar / water
solution and wiping clean with a soft cloth.

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 unit.
• DO NOT allow any corrosive materials (masonry dust, debris, etc.) to settle on your stainless steel unit.
• These environments, chemicals, and materials may cause the 304 stainless steel to develop surface rust and
consequently pitting. Under these conditions the unit exterior MUST be cleaned at least monthly. Inspect your grill
often and clean accordingly.
Protecting Your Electric Grill
An optional Fire Magic protective cover will protect your grill when not in use. Install the cover on a cool and dry unit. 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 unit it can cause surface rust.)
Ensure that the INSIDE of the cover is DRY before putting it back on the grill.

CONTROL PANEL REMOVAL
The interior of the control panel must only be accessed
by a qualied professional service technician.
1. Ensure the grill is completely cool and the
power to the unit is disconnected.
2. Slide the drip tray outward partially to allow enough
room to access the control panel securing nuts.
3. Loosen the nuts underneath the left and right sides
of the control panel with a
11
/
32
" wrench (see Fig.
47-1), then lift the panel until it is freed from the
screws. Carefully rest the bottom of the control
panel on the drip tray. The top of the control panel
is supported by the internal chains.
Important: When opening, take caution to not
damage any wiring.
4. If wire disconnections are required, reference the
wire diagram in the MODEL SPECIFICATIONS
section in this instruction manual or the wire diagram
label axed to the inside of the control panel.
Note: Whenever reconnecting any wires, apply a
small amount of dielectric grease to the male
connector, then make the connection. This will
ensure conductivity and prevent moisture from
aecting the contact.
