Built-In Instructions
Planning and Design
Start by identifying the number and size of components you want to include: Grill, side burner, access
doors for storage or other items you may wish to furnish such as: refrigerator, sink, warming drawer.
Countertops must be constructed with non-combustible, outdoor-safe materials. Consider outdoor lighting to
illuminate after-dark Grilling. For assistance in designing and building your outdoor cooking center, contact a
landscape architect or general contractor. Review the drawings on the following pages to determine the exact
dimensions and items needed for a built-in Grill. Keep in mind that the gas line hook-up is on the right hand
side for the main Grill head. The structure, Grill and support items must be kept level throughout the
installation to ensure proper operation.
Location
Take into account convenience and visual impact as well as traffic flow, wind exposure, and the site’s
structural suitability. The Grill should never be placed in an enclosed area without an approved ventilation
system, or beneath a combustible overhang. Because the Grill exhausts to the rear, it should never be located in
front of a window or less than 12” from hard-to-clean surfaces. We recommend keeping your gas supply lines
as short as possible for best performance. To ensure a perfect fit, we strongly recommend that you have all
components on hand prior to final construction.
Clearance to Non-Combustible Construction
For your safety a minimum of 3” clearance from the back of the Grill to non-combustible construction is
required. You should allow at least 6” side clearance to non-combustible construction. The Frigidaire Grill
can be placed directly adjacent to non-combustible construction below the cooking surface.
Outboard Ignitor Plate Installation (26” model only)
The electronic ignitor requires a standard size electrical box, (available at a local hardware store), with a
minimum depth of 2.5” to be mounted in the structure. It should be placed on the left front or left side of the
built-in island, with the center of the ignitor button no more than 3”-5” from the Grill. The ignitor plate,
sold separately, fits over the standard electrical box once mounted in the structure. (See drawing on following
page). The ground wire for the ignitor needs to be grounded to a metal structure in order for the ignitor to work.
Utilities
For natural gas Grills, consult your local gas utility company for hook-up requirements. All gas connections
should be made by a plumber or a gas supply company. For natural gas installation, the supply line must be at
least 1/2” diameter. The rotisserie requires a 110/120 volt electric supply and GFI receptacle. (6.5 amp min.)
If your plan includes a sink, arrange for your plumber to run a water line to the site.
The Frigidaire Grill can be installed as a built-in Grill. If installed as a built-in Grill, the Grill
surround must be constructed of Non-combustible material.
