GRILL GAS SUPPLY SPECIFICATIONS
Pleasemake sure that your desired grill location has gas
supply factors that are suitable for this product:
SUPPLY PRESSURE***
Natural Gas Propane Gas
3½“  W.C. 
**10“  W.C.
6“  W.C., minimum 11“  W.C., minimumMANIFOLD PRESSURE*
Refer to the specification plate on the grill to identify the BTUH input for your specific model.
IMPORTANT NOTE:   BTU/Hr Ratings are  based on 
sea level operation. For sites above
2000 feet, reduce this rating 4% for  each 1000 feet above sea level.
Gas Supply Inlet Pipe must be ¾”  NPT (National Pipe Thread) standard gas line.  The gas supply inlet
line should be as straight as possible (fewest bends or elbows) to obtain the highest available gas pressure at
the appliance.
  NOTE:  Using a flexible inlet line permits variation in the gas supply line location, both horizontally and
  vertically.
Anets grills are only for use with the type of gas specified on the spec plate. If a grill requires modification to
use a gas other than that which is identified on the grill spec plate, contact your Anets representative or call
(800) 837-2638.
*-   Measured at  tap on back side of gas manifold.
**-“ W.C. = Inches, Water Column.
***- Measure supply pressure ahead of pressure regulator  when all other gas-powered
           equipment is operating.

CODE REQUIREMENTS CODE REQUIREMENTSCODE REQUIREMENTS CODE REQUIREMENTS
CODE REQUIREMENTS
IMPORTANT: Read the Code Requirements and the Installation Requirements and Instructions
carefully, 
before starting the installation.  Contact ANETS (800/ 837-2638) if any problems or
questions arise.
The grill installation must conform with  local  codes, or in the absence of local codes, with the National
Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1 (latest edition); the Natural Gas Installation Code, CAN/CGA-B149.1
(latest edition);  or the Propane Gas Installation Code, CAN/CGA-B149.2 (latest edition), as applicable,
including:
(a) Disconnect the grill at its individual shutoff valve from the gas supply piping system during any pressure
testing of the gas supply system at test pressures in excess of ½ psig (3.45 kPa).
(b) Isolate the grill  from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of the gas supply system
at test pressures equal to or less than ½ psig (3.45 kPa).
(c) For grills utilizing the optional stand with casters, the grill installation shall be made with  a connector
that complies with the Standard for connectors for Movable Gas Appliances,ANSI Z21.69  (latest
edition) or CAN/CGA 6.16 (latest edition), and a quick-disconnect device that complies with the
Standard for Quick-Disconnect Devices for Use with Gas Fuel, ANSI Z21.41 or CAN/CGA 1-6.9
(latest edition). Restrict the movement of a grill on a caster-equippped  stand by using a limiting device
(for example, a cable attached both to the grill and to a fixture attached to the site structure) to avoid
depending on the connector and the quick-disconnect device or its associated piping to limit grill
movement.
(d) The regulator supplied with the unit should be installed in the inlet gas supply line with the arrow on the
regulator pointing in the direction of the gas flow.
(e) Install this grill on a non-combustible cabinet or stand with its back and sides at least 6” away from any
combustible wall.
(f) Install this grill in a location where adequate combustion and ventilation air is available.  Keep the area
directly in front of the grill open for adequate air flow to the burners.  DO NOT obstruct the flow of
combustion and ventilation air.
(g) Keep the grill area free and clear from combustibles and debris.
WARNING
Install this grill under a ventilation hood that conducts combustion products outside the building.
Venting must comply with ANSI/NFPA 96   (latest edition).

NOTE:  If the grill is installed among a row of appliances, with its only convenient movement forward,
sufficient room must be available in front of the grill to permit its separation  from adjacent appliances
for cleaning and maintenance.
3. Confirm that the air from the ventilation hood flowing near the grill after installation is NOT  blowing on
the rear of the unit, to prevent affecting the burner flames and possibly causing damage to plastic parts.
CAUTION:Hood make-up air MUST NOT flow in a manner that restricts or
impedes the natural flow of combustion or ventilation air.
Installing your ANETS Grill requires the following procedure:
1. Ensure that all the gas control valve knobs on the grill are turned to the “OFF” position.
2. Ensure that the gas supply inlet line valve is closed (handle crosswise to the line direction).
3. Connect the ¾” gas supply line to the gas line regulator in the rear of the grill.
4. Open the gas supply line valve (handle in-linewith line direction);  then, confirm that all gas supply
joints and couplings are free of leaks using soap suds or a leak-check solution, after the grill is in
its desired location.
5. Refer to Grill Operating Instructions to begin using your ANETS  Grill.

GRILL SHUT DOWN PROCEDURE GRILL SHUT DOWN PROCEDUREGRILL SHUT DOWN PROCEDURE GRILL SHUT DOWN PROCEDURE
GRILL SHUT DOWN PROCEDURE
1.  To turn the grill off, turn the gas control valve to the “Pilot” position.  To extinguish the pilot burners,
      turn  to the “Off” position.
2.  If burner flames are accidentally extinguished  or the safety shutoff valves closes due to pilot failure, turn
      all valves off.  Allow the unit to  vent for at least 5 minutes before attempting to re-light. 1. Upon examination of your grill you will notice that the grill plate is covered with a protective grease.
To remove this grease, turn grill thermostats to about 250°F setting (or low setting on manually
operated grills).  As the grill plate warms up, carefully wipe the rust preventative grease off of the grill
plate and side and rear splash plates with a soft cloth.
2. When cleaning has been completed, apply a film of cooking oil to the grill plate with a small amount of
salt.  Allow plate to season for about 1 hour at 250°F while rubbing oil and salt into the grill surface.
Add oil and salt as required on any “dry spots” that appear during this seasoning process.
3. After 1 hour at 250°F, advance the thermostat setting to 300°F.  Continue use of salt and oil for about
1 hour at 300°F.  At the end of 1 hour at 300°F, a light tan uniform coating should be present on the
top surface of the grill plate.  If it has not developed, continue seasoning process as above at 350°F
until coating is formed.
Note:  On manually operated grills, keep the grill on low setting during entire seasoning process.
Following initial “Conditioning” of the grill plate, the thermostats may be set to the desired temperature.

Chrome Grill Cleaning Instructions (SGC Models)
IMPORTANT: Do not use any abrasive or caustic cleaners or pads on chrome
grills.
SIMPLE 3 STEP PROCESS….. Scrape, Scrub, Shine
1. Scrape – with the razor scraper provided.  Make sure razor edge is exposed.  (The blade is turned
inward during shipping for safety protection.)
2. Scrub  -  with the palmyra cleaning brush provided and cool water.
3. Shine  -  (only if necessary) with Bon Ami™ cleanser, water, and a soft cloth.      Note:  It may be
necessary to condition grill again after this cleaning.
4. To clean grease drawer, slowly and carefully remove from cabinet.  Cautiously pour contents into
container, wash out grease drawer.  Wipe dry and reinstall into grill cabinet.
DO NOT use a grill brick or grill screen or any caustic cleansers as this will damage the chrome
surface.
NOTE:Regular maintenance is strongly recommended to keep the grill operating properly.
Once each month, before beginning grill operation, check the flue (behind the backsplash panel) to ensure
that it is clear and free of obstructions, enabling exhaust combustion gases to flow freely toward the ventila-
tion hood area.  DO NOT allow the flue to become excessively dirty,  NEVER allow the flue to be
blocked.
Monthly, observe the condition of the ventilation hood.  If it shows evidence of a great deal of greasy
residue, remove (clean) the residue to allow free flow of ventilation air, taking care not to knock any residue
into grill flue.
