ADVANCE PLANNING

Built-In Monogram Outdoor Grills and Cooktops are designed
for easy installation into a non-combustible enclosure. The
grill drops into the opening and hangs from its side flanges.
• A deck is not required for support from the bottom.
• The counter surface and edges must be flat and level.
• The installation structure within 12" of the product must be

constructed completely of non-combustible materials.

NOTE: Non-combustible materials are materials which are
not capable of being ignited and burned, such as steel, iron,
brick, concrete, granite or slate.

Clearances:
• A 4" minimum

clearance is required
behind the grill to
allow the hood to
open.

Clearances to Wood or Other Combustible Materials:
• Allow at least a 12" clearance at the back of the grill when

the exhaust is directed to a window or a surface that is
difficult to clean.

• Allow 12" minimum clearance on both sides and the back

of the grill to adjacent vertical combustible construction.

• Do not install this outdoor grill or cooktop under overhead

combustible construction.

Accessories:
• ZX27AD Access Doors may be installed directly below

a grill.

• ZX18DS Storage Drawers CANNOT be installed directly

below a grill or cooktop.

• ZX18TC Trash Bin CANNOT be installed directly below a grill

or cooktop.

Security:
Cart models are equipped with an anti-theft, stationary-
mount security loop. This loop allows you to secure the grill
to a structure. See page 19.

Cooktop Installation:
Both an LP or Natural gas cooktop can be installed in
combination with a grill. The cooktop can be connected
to the same LP tank as the grill.
• The cooktop can also be installed alone and be supplied by

a separate LP tank. In this case, you must order a regulator
hose assembly. Order WB21X10156 regulator hose
assembly for a 20-lb. LP tank connection.

Installation Preparation

CHOOSING THE LOCATION

• These outdoor grills are designed for outdoor use

only. Do not locate the grill in a building, garage
or other enclosed or semi-enclosed area.

• Ensure that fresh air ventilation is adequate.

• Locate the grill where prevailing winds will blow

into the front of the control panel.

• The minimum clearances to wood or other

combustibles must be maintained at all times.

• Do not install an outdoor grill or cooktop under

overhead combustible construction.

• The location must be level and stable.

NEVER USE THE GRILL IN WINDY CONDITIONS. Wind hitting

the grill while in use, especially winds blowing into or across this
hood gap, can cause poor performance and in some cases can
cause the control panel to get hot enough to cause burns.

Steady or gusty winds can prevent the normal exhaust of hot
gases. Locate your grill away from prevailing winds and avoid
grilling in windy conditions.
