Frigidaire Side Burner
Built-In Usage
USE AND CARE MANUAL
FOR OUTDOOR USE ONLY
MADE IN THE USA
Built-In Instructions
The Frigidaire side burner is designed to be installed as a built-in side burner, in conjunction with
a Frigidaire & Frigidaire Gallery grills. If installed as a built-in Grill, the Grill surround must be
constructed of Non-combustible material.
PLANNING AND DESIGN
Start by identifying the number and size of components you want to include in your outdoor cooking
center. Countertops must be constructed of non-combustible, outdoor-safe materials. Consider out-
door 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 an outdoor cooking center. Keep in mind
that the gas line hook-up is on the right hand side of the main built in-grill. 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 rec-
ommend keeping your gas supply lines as short as possible for best performance. To ensure a per-
fect 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 side
vents on this unit can be covered for built in installations without danger of fire or without impairing
the operation of the grill.
UTILITIES
For natural gas grills, consult your local gas utility company for hook-up requirements. All gas connections
should be made by a certified technician 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.) that should be installed by a qualified electrical technician. If your plan
includes a sink, arrange for a certified plumbing technician to run a water line to the site.
Built-In Instructions
Additional Requirements:
• If using a backsplash apron or rear wall, locate electrical service on the left hand side for rotisserie motor construc-
tion.
• A minimum clearance of 12” from the back of the outdoor cooking center must be maintained between the grill and
any combustible construction such as wood siding of residence, 3” minimum for non-combustible construction.
• The side vents on this unit can be covered for built in installations without danger of fire or without impairing the
operation of the grill.
Natural Gas Installation
1. Under the grill, remove the NG gas regulator
assembly from the main gas pipe. Once the
NG gas regulator is removed, the main gas
pipe will be showing under grill. (See Fig 1)
Fig. 1
2. Using pipe sealant, attach the “T” Fitting to
the main gas pipe coming out of the bottom of
the grill. (See Fig 2)
3. Using pipe sealant, attach a 3/8” flared fitting
to the side of the “T” fitting. (See Fig 3)
4. Attach the one end of the flex line to the fitting
on the side of the “T” fitting. Connect the other
end of the flex line to the side burner valve.
(See Fig 4)
Fig. 2
Note: This line can be extended using a 3/8”
flared coupling and an additional flex line if
necessary.
5. Using pipe sealant, attach a 3/8” nipple to the
bottom of the “T” fitting. (See Fig 5)
6. Using pipe sealant, attach the NG gas regulator
to the 3/8” nipple. (See Fig 6)
Fig. 3
7. Attach the NG gas line to the bottom flared
fitting. (See Fig 7)
Note: Make sure all fittings are tightened with
a wrench.

Lighting The Side Burner
LEAK TESTING
Make sure all burners are turned to “OFF”.
Turn on the gas at the cylinder (LP models) or main
valve (Natural models). DO NOT turn on the side
burner. Perform a leak test at all connections and fit-
tings by spraying a 50/50 solution of water and soap.
If any bubbles appear, correct the leak before
attempting to light the grill or side burner.
LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
Push and turn the control knob to the “HIGH”position
and immediately press and hold the electronic igniter
button. You’ll hear a snapping sound. It may be nec-
essary to hold the electronic starter button for about 4
seconds. If the burner does not light in 4 seconds,
turn the knob to the “OFF” position and wait 5 min-
utes before trying again. Repeat above steps to light
remaining burners. (See Fig. 5)
Fig. 5
Match Lighting
If by chance the electronic igniter does not light the
burner, the burner may be lit with a match. Keep
your face as far away from the burner as possible
and place a lit, long stem match through the spaces
in the grate to the ports of the burner. Position the
match near the burner ports and push and turn the
control knob to the “HIGH”position.
