    Safety Practice s T o Avoid Pe r sonal In ju ry When properly cared for, your new DCS Appliance has been designed to be a safe, reliable cooking appliance.When using this restaurant caliber appliance, use it with extreme care, as this type appliance provides intense heat and can increase the accident potential.
  • Page 6 Safety Practice s T o Avoid Pe r sonal In ju ry Never let clothing, pot holders, or other flammable materials come in contact with, or too close to, any burner or burner grate until it has cooled. Fabric may ignite and result in personal injury. Be certain to use only dry pot holders: moist or damp pot holders on hot surfaces may cause burns from steam.
  • Page 7 Some cleaners produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot surface. Follow directions provided by the cleaner manufacturer. Be sure all the range and/or cooktop controls are turned off and the appliance is cool before using any type of aerosol cleaner on or around the appliance.The chemical that produces the spraying action could, in the presence of heat, ignite or cause metal parts to corrode.

    One at a time turn on the oven and broiler burners for 20 to 30 minutes each.This burns off the manufacturing oils used by the factory.Turn the oven burner on to 450ºF and then the broiler burner on to “Broil”.Turn on the ventilator above your range while these burners are on, as there will be an odor.
  • Page 11: Cooktop Use

    When lighting the simmer burner, turn the main burner knob down to the simmer burner position. Should a strong draft or boil over extinguish the simmer flame it will relight automatically as the main burner would. Your new professional gas range is equipped with burners typical of those used in restaurants.These burners are designed for maximum cleanability and controllability.The large cap spreads the...
  • Page 12: Electronic Igniters

    Cooktop Use ELECTRONIC IGNITERS IGNITER (keep clean) BURNER EFFICIENCY AND FLAME CHARACTERISTICS It is necessary to keep the burner ports and the igniters clean for proper lighting and efficient performance of the cooktop burners. The burner flame should burn completely around the burner with no excessive noise or lifting.The flame should be blue in color and stable with no yellow tips.
  • Page 13: Flame Height

    Cooktop Use FLAME HEIGHT The correct height of the flame mainly depends on the size of the bottom of the cooking utensil, the material of the cooking utensil, the amount and type of food and the amount of liquid in the utensil. Following are some basic rules for selecting flame height.
  • Page 14: Cooking Utensils

    Cooktop Use COOKING UTENSILS For best results we recommend using Professional Cookware.This type of utensil can be found at your finer department stores, specialty cooking shops, or Restaurant Supply Stores. If using regular cookware be very careful if the pans have plastic handles, as these large professional size burners can flame up on the outside of the pan and melt or bubble the handles.
  • Page 15: Oven Use

    Oven Use BURNERS Your new professional gas range is equipped with bake and broil burners typical of those used in restaurants.The oven broiler burner is 15,000 Btu/hr and the oven baking burner is 28,000 Btu/hr. ELECTRIC GLOW IGNITER COIL The oven bake and broil burners are equipped with an electric glow igniter and safety system which lights the gas.There will be a delay after the control knob has been turned on to when you actually...
  • Page 16: Oven

    Oven Use REGULAR BAKING Bake is baking with hot air; there is no fan.The air movement comes from natural convection - as the air heats, it moves to the top of the oven.This oven mode is the same as you have been using for baking on one or two racks.
  • Page 17: To Set The Oven For Baking

    Oven Use Converting Recipes to Convection Baking Low sided baking utensils will give the best results as the hot air can reach all sides of the food easier.The oven temperature can be left the same as the recipe and the food cooked a shorter period of time.The temperature can be lowered 25ºF to 50ºF and the food will probably take the same length of time to cook as the recipe states.
  • Page 18: Preheating

    Oven Use PREHEATING Preheating takes about 10 to 15 minutes depending on the temperature set. Preheating is usually necessary for foods baked at high temperature for a short period of time, i.e. drop cookies.The oven heating light will turn off when the oven has reached temperature. CONDENSATION During any cooking process there is a certain amount of moisture that evaporates from the food.The amount of moisture that condenses on the oven depends on the moisture content of the food.The...
  • Page 19: Oven Racks

    Oven Use OVEN RACKS CAUTION: Aluminum foil should never be used to cover the oven racks or to line the oven bottom.The trapped heat can damage the porcelain and the heated air cannot adequately reach the food being baked. Baking One or two racks can be used simultaneously during bake.
  • Page 20: High Altitude Baking

    The HEATING indicator light on the valve panel cycles on and off with burner to let the user know when the burner is lit.This cycling process is used to evenly distribute and safely control the intense heat that the broil burner produces.The cycling feature prevents the burner from producing range damaging heat.

    155ºF for medium and 160ºF to 165ºF for well done. If you are cooking pork, cook to 160ºF. A large two-piece broil pan comes with your new range.When you are broiling, always use both pieces. Do not cover the grid with aluminum foil.This slotted grid allows the grease drippings to flow into the bottom of the pan keeping it away from the intense heat of the infra-red broiler burner.This helps to...

    Oven Self-cleaning OVEN SELF-CLEANING The self-cleaning oven of your new range features pyrolytic self-cleaning. When set in the CLEAN mode, the oven reaches a high temperature that burns off the food soil. When the oven is set for CLEAN, only the cooktop burners may be used.

    Be careful cleaning any part of this appliance while hot. When cleaning this range or cooktop: 1. Always use the mildest cleaning procedure first.

  • Page 26: Burners

    Ca re and Maintenance BURNERS For proper lighting and performance keep the burners clean. It is necessary to clean the burners if they do not light even though the igniter clicks, if there has been a severe boil over, or when the flame does not burn blue.
  • Page 27: Backguard

    Ca re and Maintenance BACKGUARD This is made of stainless steel. Use the mildest cleaning procedure first - hot soapy water, rinse and dry. If the panel has food soil remaining, try a general kitchen cleaner, such as Fantastik®, Simple Green® or Formula 409®.
  • Page 28: Oven Racks And Rollers

    Ca re and Maintenance OVEN RACKS AND ROLLERS The oven racks and rollers are chrome plated steel. Chrome cleaners, such as Soft Scrub®, Cameo or Bar Keepers Friend can be applied with a damp sponge following package directions. Rinse and dry.
