A minimum clearance of 48 in. from the sides of the grill and a minimum clearance of 48 in. from the
back of the grill to adjacent vertical combustible constructions must be maintained.
. Do not operate the grill inside a

ventilation air around the grill.
However, the manufacturer strongly suggests a 6 ft. clearance of the grill to combustible
constructions.
