Built-In Instructions

Planning and Design

Start by identifying the number and size of components you want to include: Grill, side burner, access 
doors for storage or other items you may wish to furnish such as: refrigerator, sink, warming drawer.  
Countertops must be constructed with non-combustible, outdoor-safe materials.  Consider outdoor
lighting to illuminate after-dark Grilling.  For assistance in designing and building your outdoor cook-
ing center, contact a landscape architect or general contractor.  Review the drawings on the following
pages to determine the exact dimensions and items needed for a built-in Grill.  Keep in mind that the
gas line hook-up is on the right hand side for the main Grill head.  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 recom-
mend keeping your gas supply lines as short as possible for best performance.  To ensure a perfect 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
Electrolux Grill can be placed directly adjacent to non-combustible construction below the cooking
surface.

Outboard Ignitor Plate Installation

The electronic ignitors require a standard size electrical box, (available at a local hardware store), with
a minimum depth of 2.5” to be mounted in the structure.  It should be placed on the left front or left
side of the built-in island, with the center of the ignitor button no more than 3”-5” from the Grill. The
ignitor plate fits over the standard electrical box once mounted in the structure.  (See drawing on fol-
lowing page).  The ground wire for the ignitor needs to be grounded to a metal structure in order for
the ignitor to work.   Repeat the above steps for the right side ignitor. 

Utilities

For natural gas Grills, consult your local gas utility company for hook-up requirements.  All gas 
connections should be made by a plumber 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.)  If your plan includes a sink, arrange for your plumber to run a water
line to the site.

The Electrolux Grill can be installed as a built-in Grill.  If installed as a built-in
Grill, the Grill surround 

must be

constructed of 

Non-combustible

material.
