INSTALLATION
LOCATING GRILL/BUILT-IN CLEARANCES
Clearances to Non-Combustible Construction*:
A minimum of 3" clearance from the back of the grill to non-combustible construction is required for the purpose
of allowing the lid to open fully. It is desirable to allow at least 6" rear and side clearance to non-combustible
construction above the cooking surface for counter space. If you'll be using the rotisserie option, the space is es-
sential for motor and skewer clearance. The grill can be placed directly adjacent to non-combustible construction
below the cooking surface. (Fig. 03)

WARNING!
Failure to maintain required clearances creates a fire hazard that may result in property damage or serious personal
injury.
WARNING!
The BGB Grill is designed to function in an open area. Recommended minimum clearances should be maintained
to all surfaces (combustible and noncombustible) for optimum performance. Noncombustible material within the
minimum clearance area could result in discoloration or deterioration.
WARNING!
If a noncombustible material such as stucco is covering a combustible material such as wood, the minimum clear-
ance distance needs to be held to the wood. The presence of a noncombustible material inside the clearance zone
does not eliminate the minimum clearance zone to combustible material.
* DEFINITION OF NONCOMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL - Material which is not capable of being ignited and burned, such as
materials consisting entirely of, or a combination of, steel, iron, brick tile, concrete, slate, and plaster.
Clearances to Combustible Construction**:
Minimum of 12" from the sides and rear of grill must be maintained to adjacent vertical combustible construc-
tion, above the counter top level. You should take in account that there is a large volume of heat, and smoke will
exhaust from the rear of the grill. This may discolor or damage unprotected areas (Fig. 04). Do not install under
unprotected combustible construction without using a fire safe ventilation system.
A 12" minimum clearance must be maintained under the counter top to combustible construction. The clearance
can be modified by a use of an insulated jacket.
