Gas Requirements
GENERAL INFORMATION
Never attach an unregulated gas line to the appliance. Connection to an unregulated gas
line can cause excessive heat or fire.
Verify the type of gas supply to be used – either Natural Gas (N.G.) or Liquid Propane (L.P.) – and make sure the serial
plate agrees with that of the supply. Conversion kits are available separately for an additional cost which will enable you
to convert your grill from L.P. to N.G. or to convert your grill from N.G. to L.P. Please see your Frigidaire dealer for more
information.
NOTE: Always have a qualified service technician perform difficult conversions or modifications.
For natural gas installations, an installer must supply a gas shutoff valve that is easily accessible to the grill. All installer
supplied parts must conform to local codes, or in the absence of local codes, with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/
NFPA 70, National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1.
All pipe sealants must be an approved type and resistant to the actions of L.P. gases. Never use pipe sealant on flare
fittings. All gas connections should be made by a competent qualified service technician and in accordance with local
codes and ordinances. In the absence of local codes, the installation must comply with the National Fuel Gas Code,
ANSI Z223.1. Gas conversion kits may be purchased separately. When ordering gas conversion kits, have the model
number and the type of gas (N.G. or L.P.) used for your grill.You can call 1-800-Frigidaire to buy the conversion kits.
This grill and its individual shut off valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure
testing of the system at test pressures in excess of 1/2 PSIG (3.5 kPa.).
This grill must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve during any
pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than 1/2 PSIG (3.5 kPa.).
The installation of this grill must conform with local codes, or in the absence of local codes, with National Fuel Code,
ANSI Z223.1a.
NATURAL GAS INSTALLATION
The gas inlet supply pressure should be between 5” and 14” water column (w.c.). A step down regulator is required if the
line pressure is in excess of 14” w.c. Inlet pressure must not exceed 14” water column (1/2 PSIG).
Check with your local gas utility company or with local codes for instructions on installing gas supply lines. Be sure to
check on type and size of run, and how deep to bury the line. If the gas supply line is too small, the grill will not operate
correctly.
Any joint sealant used must be an approved type and be resistant to chemical breakdown resulting from the reaction
with N.G.
NOTE:The gas line connection and the gas fitting must be the same diameter.
Installer supplied shutoff valve (not included). Place the shutoff valve in an accessible location to enable the gas supply
to be cut off to the unit.
NOTE: A flexible natural gas line is not included with Frigidaire Gallery grills. Natural gas flex line must be
purchased separately based on the distance of your grill location from the natural gas line. Please be sure to
check the size of your home’s natural gas line fitting to make sure you get the right size connection for your
particular application. If you have questions, please consult your local natural gas distributor or qualified

Gas Requirements
L.P. GAS INSTALLATION
Frigidaire Gas Grills that are set to operate with L.P. gas come with a high capacity hose and regulator assembly.
(Note: Only use the pressure regulator and hose assembly supplied with the grill or a replacement
pressure regulator and hose assemblies specified by Frigidaire). This assembly is designed to connect
directly to a standard 20 lb. L.P. cylinder. L.P. cylinders are not included with the grill. L.P. cylinders can be
purchased separately at an independent dealer.
Shutoff
Valve
LP hose/
regulator
Collar
supplied
with grill.
(Type 1
connector)
Ensure that the black plastic grommets on the L.P. cylinder valve are in place and that the hose does not come
into contact with the grease tray or the grill head.
L.P.TANK INFORMATION
Never use a dented or rusted L.P. tank or cylinder with a damaged valve.
The cylinder used must include a collar to protect the cylinder valve.
L.P. cylinders are equipped with an O.P.D. (Overfilling Prevention Device). The device shuts off the flow of gas to a
cylinder after 80% capacity is reached.This limits the potential for release of gas when the cylinder is heated,
averting a fire or possible injury.
The L.P. cylinder must have a shut-off valve terminating in an L.P. gas supply cylinder outlet specified, as
applicable, for connection No. 510 in the standard for compressed gas cylinder valve outlet and inlet connection
ANSI/CGAV1. Cylinders must not be stored in a building, garage, or any other enclosed area. (The L.P. cylinder
must have an overfill protection device, OPD, on it.)
The L.P. gas supply cylinder must be constructed and marked in accordance with the specifications for L.P. gas
cylinders of the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT). “Cylinders, Spheres and Tubes for the Transportation of
Dangerous Goods.”
L.P.TANK USE
• When turning the L.P. tank on, make sure to open the valve SLOWLY two (2) complete turns to ensure
proper gas flow. Most gas tanks now come equipped with a leak detector mechanism internal to the tank.
When gas is allowed to escape rapidly it shuts off the gas supply. Opening the valve rapidly may
stimulate a gas leak, causing the safety device to activate, restricting gas flow causing low flames.
Opening the valve slowly will ensure this safety feature is not falsely triggered.
• When not in use, gas supply cylinder valve is to be in the “OFF” position.
• The tank supply system must be stored upright to allow for vapor withdrawal.
• The regulator and hose assembly must be inspected before each use of the grill. If there is excessive abrasion or
wear or if the hose is cut, it must be replaced prior to the grill being used again.
• Cylinders must be stored outdoors out of the reach of children and must not be stored in a building, garage or any
other enclosed area.
• Only a qualified gas supplier should refill the L.P. tank.
• Do not store a spare L.P. gas cylinder under or near the grill.
• The cylinder used must include a collar to protect the cylinder valve.

Gas Requirements
CONNECTION:
Your grill is equipped with gas supply orifices for use only with liquid propane gas. It is also equipped with a high
capacity hose/regulator assembly for connection to a standard 20 lb. L.P. cylinder (18-1/4" high, 12-1/4" diameter).
To connect the L.P. gas supply cylinder: (See Fig.8).
1. Make sure tank valve is in its full “OFF” position (turn clockwise to stop).
2. Check tank valve to ensure it has proper external male threads (type 1 connection per ANSI Z21.81).
3. Make sure all burner valves are in the “OFF” position.
4. Inspect valve connections, port and regulator assembly. Look for any damage or debris. Remove any debris.
Inspect hose for damage. Never attempt to use damaged or obstructed equipment. See your local L.P. gas
dealer for repair.
5. When connecting regulator assembly to the valve, hand tighten the nut clockwise to a complete stop. Do not
use a wrench to tighten. Use of a wrench may damage the quick coupling nut and result in a hazardous
condition.
6. Open the tank valve fully (counterclockwise). Use a soapy water solution to check all connections for leaks
before attempting to light the grill. See next page. If a leak is found, turn the tank valve off and do not use the
grill until a local L.P. gas dealer can make repairs.
To disconnect L.P. gas cylinder:
1. Turn the burner valves off.
2. Turn the tank valve off fully (turn clockwise).
3. Detach the regulator assembly from the tank valve by turning the quick coupling nut counterclockwise.
GAS FLOW CHECK:
1. Each grill burner is tested and adjusted at the factory prior to shipment; however, variations in the local gas
supply may make it necessary to adjust the burners. The flames of the burners should be visually checked.
2. Flames should be blue and stable with no yellow tips, excessive noise or lifting. If any of these conditions exist,
check if the air shutter or burner ports are blocked by dirt, debris, spider webs, etc.

Pre-Operation Leak Testing
GENERAL INFORMATION
Although all gas connections on the grill are leak tested prior to shipment, a complete gas tightness check must be
performed at the installation site due to possible shifting during shipment, installation or excessive pressure
unknowingly being applied to the unit. Periodically check the whole system for leaks and immediately check the
system if the smell of gas is detected.
BEFORE TESTING
Do not smoke while leak testing. Extinguish all open flames. Never leak test with an open flame.
Mix a solution of equal parts mild detergent or liquid soap and water.
TESTING
1. Turn off the burner control knobs.
2. Turn the top knob of the fuel supply cylinder counterclockwise (right to left) two (2) rotations to open.
3. Apply the soap solution to connections of the fuel supply assembly. If no soap bubbles appear, there is no gas
leak. If bubbles form at the connections, a leak is detected. If a leak is detected, immediately turn off the gas
supply, tighten any leaking fittings, turn gas on, and repeat steps 1-3.
4. Turn off the knob on the fuel supply cylinder.
5. Turn on the burner control knobs for a moment to release the pressure in the hose, then turn the control knobs
back off.
6. Wash off soapy solution with cold water and towel dry.
Check all gas supply fittings before each use and each time the gas supply cylinder is connected to the regulator.
Have a qualified service technician leak test the grill any time a part of the gas system is replaced.
Also it is recommended to perform a leak test at least once a year whether or not the L.P. gas supply cylinder has
been disconnected.
NOTE:When leak testing this appliance, make sure to test and tighten all loose connections, including the
side burner. A slight leak in the system can result in a low flame, or a hazardous condition. Most L.P. gas
tanks now come equipped with a leak detector mechanism internal to the tank; when gas is allowed to
escape rapidly, it shuts off the gas supply. A leak may significantly reduce the gas flow making the grill
difficult to light or causing low flames.
NOTE: If you cannot stop a gas leak turn off the gas supply and call your local gas gas company or the
dealer from which you purchased the appliance. If necessary, replace the faulty part with the
manufacturer’s recommended replacement part. A slight leak could cause a fire.

Using the Rotisserie & Side Burners
(Optional ROTISSERIE KIT to use with back infrared burner must be purchased separately)
The grill rotisserie system is designed to cook items from the back using infrared heat.The rotisserie burner is an
infrared type which provides intense searing radiant heat. Preferred by chefs over other cooking methods, this
intense heat sears in the natural juices and nutrients found in quality cuts of meats.
Remove the warming rack from the grill when using the rotisserie to
prevent warping from the intense heat of the infrared unit.
!
NOTE:The rotisserie spit rod is centered between the grill hood and the burners. It may be necessary to
remove the grates and flavor grids when cooking larger portions of meat on the rotisserie.This is by
design, since this configuration gives you the most possible room above and below the rod for larger
pieces of meat.
Once lit, the rotisserie burner will reach cooking temperature in 1 minute.The orange/red glow will even out in
about 5 minutes.The rotisserie motor is equipped with metal gears and is capable of turning up to 20 lbs. of food.
The motor is mounted on a bracket on the left side of the grill by sliding the motor over the bracket with the cord
facing the back of the grill. Make sure the rotisserie motor is completely seated on the bracket prior to operating.
Make sure the rotisserie cord is away from any hot surfaces.

Care & Maintenance
DRIP TRAY
The drip tray located below the grill, inside the cart, should be cleaned periodically to prevent heavy buildup of
debris.
NOTE: Allow the drip tray to cool before attempting to clean.
Important: Do not leave the grill outside during inclement weather unless it is covered (cover sold
separately). Rain water can collect inside the grill, the grill cart or the drip tray if left uncovered. If the drip
tray is not cleaned after use and the grill is left uncovered, the drip tray will fill with water causing grease
and water to spill into the grill cart.We recommend cleaning and storing the drip tray after every use.
COOKING GRATES
The cooking grates can be cleaned immediately after cooking is completed and after turning off the grill. Wear a
barbecue mitt and scrub the cooking grates with a damp cloth. If the grill is allowed to cool down, cleaning the
grates will be easier if removed from the grill and cleaned with a mild detergent.
STAINLESS STEEL
After initial usage, areas of the grill may discolor from the intense heat given off by the burners. This is normal.
Purchase a mild stainless steel cleaner and rub in the direction of the grain of the metal. Specks of grease can
gather on the surface of the stainless steel and bake on to the surface and give a worn appearance. For removal,
use a non-abrasive oven cleaner in conjunction with a stainless cleaner.
NOTE: Always scrub in the direction of the grain.
IGNITER ACCESS (UNDER MAIN
BURNER)
To remove igniter, unscrew igniter push button and
locking nut from front panel of the main burner and
igniter will fall out through the bottom.
IGNITER ASSEMBLY
1. The battery, spring and igniter cap must be installed before using.

TroubleshootingYour Grill
GENERAL TROUBLE SHOOTING
You should inspect the burners at least once a year or immediately if any of the following conditions occur:
• The smell of gas.
• Flames appearing mostly yellow. (Some yellow at the tips is OK)
• The grill will not get hot enough.
• Burners make a snapping noise.
• The grill heats unevenly.
SPIDER AND INSECT WARNING
Spider and insects can nest in the burners of this or any other grill and cause the gas to flow from the front of the
burner. This is very dangerous condition which can cause a fire to occur behind the valve panel, thereby damaging
the grill and making it unsafe to operate. We recommend you check the grill and remove any spiders, insects and
webs at least once a year to reduce this risk.
BEFORE CALLING CUSTOMER SERVICE
If the grill does not function properly, use the following checklist.
PROBLEM
SOLUTION
Grill will not light when the igniter button is
pushed.
• Is your gas supply turned on?
• If this is an L.P. grill, is there gas in your tank?
Check your gas level.
• Is one of your burners turned on? Allow up to four
seconds of gas flow to ignite.
• Is your igniter working?
- You should hear a snapping sound when you press
the igniter.
- If you hear a snapping sound, can you see a spark
at the electrodes?
Note -You will need to remove your cooking
grates and flavor grids to see the electrodes.
• Check your igniter battery and replace if needed.
• Check for loose wire connections to the igniter or
electrodes.
• Check to see if debris is blocking the electrodes.
• If the igniter is not working, can you light the grill
with a match?
