The control panel MUST remain removable for servicing
(see PARTS LIST).
ENSURING PROPER COMBUSTION AIR AND
COOLING AIRFLOW
Proper airfl ow (Fig. 10-1) MUST be maintained for the
grill to perform as it was designed. If airfl ow is blocked,
overheating and poor combustion will result. Do not
block the 1" (2.5 cm) front air inlet along the bottom of
the control panel or more than 75% of the cooking grid
surface with pans or griddles.
Note: The 1" (2.5 cm)
front air space
a l s o a l l o w s
access to the
drip tray.
EXHAUST REMOVAL
If installed or used under a patio roof, the cooking grid
area must be fully covered by an exhaust hood with a vent.
An exhaust fan with a rating of 1,000 CFM (cubic feet per
minute) (472 liters per second) or more may be necessary
to effectively remove smoke and other cooking by-products
from the area under the hood. Fire Magic Vent Hoods
are available to meet this requirement. This grill must
not be used under unprotected overhead combustible
construction. THIS UNIT MUST NOT BE LOCATED IN
A FULLY ENCLOSED AREA OF ANY KIND.

it should be no longer than 20' (6.1 meters).
Important: An external valve (with a removable

safety when the grill is not in use. It also
provides for convenient maintenance.

oven lid vent (Fig. 10-2) can cause
poor performance and/or dangerous
overheating. Orient the grill so that the
prevailing wind blows toward the front of
the grill (Fig. 10-3).
