This grill is designed for built-in installation into an outdoor kitchen island. Ensure your island opening meets the grill's dimensions for a proper fit.

4.1 Unpacking and Inspection

Carefully remove all packaging materials. Inspect the grill and all components for any damage. If any parts are missing or damaged, do not proceed with assembly; contact customer support.

4.2 Assembling the Cabinet (If Applicable)

If you are assembling a BODEGA outdoor kitchen cabinet, follow the specific instructions provided with the cabinet. The following video demonstrates a general assembly process for a compatible outdoor kitchen island, including the installation of drawers and doors.

4.3 Installing the Grill Head

Carefully lift the grill head and place it into the designated opening in your outdoor kitchen island. Ensure it sits securely and is level. Use the provided screws to fasten the grill head to the cabinet structure as shown in the video.

4.4 Gas Connection and Leak Testing

Connect the provided gas regulator and hose to a standard 20 LB propane tank. Ensure all connections are tight. For natural gas conversion, use a certified conversion kit (sold separately) and have a qualified technician perform the installation.

Leak Test: Mix a solution of equal parts liquid dish soap and water. With the gas supply on and all burner control knobs in the OFF position, apply the solution to all gas connections. If bubbles appear, there is a leak. Immediately turn off the gas supply and tighten connections. Repeat the test. If leaks persist, do not use the grill and contact customer support.
