② Dual-sided grates
③ Drip pan

Not shown: lid

Dial halos

When a dial is in use, an orange halo around that dial will illuminate. This will change from orange to white if the dial is turned to OFF but another dial remains active. If all dials are turned OFF, all halos will dim.

Multiple DCS Series 9 products may be linked together to allow for cross-product halo illumination. To allow for this functionality, an approved DCS kit is required and can be purchased separately from your local DCS dealer.

Grill layout

Each grill section consists of a burner, heat baffles, ceramic rods encased in a radiant tray, and a heat retaining grate. Each burner is rated at 25,000 Btu/hr or 26,5MJ/h.

Discoloration of the grates is normal after use.

Seasoning the grates

Season your grates before first use and then periodically to protect the grate surface from corrosion, and to stop food sticking.

① Pour two teaspoons of vegetable oil on a soft cloth and rub on both sides of the grates. Only a light coating is needed.
② Turn the dial to a medium heat setting. Some smoke may be visible during the preheating stage.
③ Turn the dial to OFF when the oil begins to smoke and allow the grill to cool.
④ Repeat as needed.

If you are using propane gas, a slight pop or flash may occur at the burner ports a few seconds after the burner has been turned OFF. This is normal for propane gas.

Grilling guidelines

Grilling requires high heat for searing and browning. Most foods are cooked at the MED to HI heat setting for the entire cooking time, however, when grilling large pieces of meat or poultry, it may be necessary to turn the heat to LOW after the initial browning. Foods cooked for a long time or basted with a sugary marinade may need a lower heat setting near the end of the cooking time.

A complete gas tightness check must be performed at the installation site. Periodically check the whole system for leaks, or immediately if the smell of gas is present.

When using a LP gas cylinder ensure it is installed in a vertical position to provide the required vapor withdrawal.

GRILL OFF 1

Prepare soap solution by combining one part liquid detergent and one part water. Pour into a spray bottle. Ensure all control valves are in the OFF position before turning the gas supply ON.

leak points leak points NG: ②

Check all connections from the supply line or LP cylinder by applying the solution around the connection, tubing and end of the manifold. Soap bubbles will appear where a leak is present.

leak points LP:

If a leak is present

Immediately turn the gas supply OFF and tighten any leaking connections. Turn gas ON, and recheck. If you cannot stop a gas leak turn the gas supply OFF and call your local gas utility or the dealer you purchased the appliance from. Only parts recommended by the manufacturer should be used on the unit, substitution can void the warranty.

Changing the LP cylinder

Ensure the main tank valve is turned off before turning the coupler counter clockwise, the inlet will then disengage. Remove the inlet from the tank valve opening. Your local LP filling station should be equipped with the proper equipment to fill your tank.

Do not attempt to remove, repair or replace the regulator/hose assembly. This must be done by qualified and licensed technician only.

Flame height adjustment

Flames should be blue and stable with no yellow tips, excessive noise or lifting (Note: LP units may have some yellow tipping). If any of these conditions exist, check the air shutter and burner ports are clear. If cleaning these does not improve performance, the air shutter can be adjusted as per the instructions below.

①

OFF RIGHT HOLD

Ensure the grill is OFF and cool. To access the air shutters, remove the grate, radiant and U-burner.

②

Technical line drawing of a mechanical assembly with cylindrical components and mounting brackets (no text or symbols)

With a screw driver, loosen the lock screw on the face of the air shutter so it can be adjusted. If the flame is yellow turn the air shutter counterclockwise, if the flame is noisy and tends to lift turn the air shutter clockwise.

③

yellow tips noisy/lifting blue + stable

Reinstall the U-burner and light to check. If the flame is blue and stable, remove the burner, tighten the air shutter screw and replace all parts. If flame is still unstable, repeat the above steps.

Low flame adjustment

The valves on the grill feature an adjustable low setting. Due to fluctuations in gas pressure, or heating value you may want to increase or decrease gas flow in the low position. If the gas type has been converted from natural to LP or vice-versa, the low flame setting must be reviewed and adjusted.

Regulator and hose replacement

The pressure regulator and hose assembly supplied with the unit must be used. If replacements are needed, contact customer care at dcsappliances.com.

Resetting the flow control

Failure to follow the steps in the order shown may cause the Flow Limiting Device to activate resulting in extremely low gas flow and irregular operation.

① All dials must be in the OFF position.
② Attach regulator hose assembly to the tank and open the LP tank valve (minimum of two full turns).

Cleaning grill grates

The grill grates must be re-seasoned after cleaning to prevent rust stains.

Full clean

• The easiest way to clean the grill is immediately after cooking is completed.
• Wear a mitt to protect your hand from the heat and steam.
• Dip a soft brass bristle brush in a mixture of 2 cups of water and 1/2 cup of vinegar and scrub the grill while still hot. The steam created will assist in the cleaning process. Any food particles loosened in the process will fall onto the ceramic rods and burn off or fall into the drip pan.

Sear clean

Turn burners on HI for 15-20 minutes to burn any remaining food particles. After turning the grill OFF, use a bristle brush to remove any remaining food particles or ash.

Ceramic rods

If grease can be seen on the rods or there are a lot of flare-ups during cooking, turn the rods over and heat on HI for 30 minutes.

304 Stainless steel

The grill is made from non-rusting and non-magnetic stainless steel. After initial use, areas of the grill may discolor from the intense heat given off by the burners, this is normal. Grease can gather on the surfaces of the stainless steel and bake on to the surface and give the appearance of rust. To remove baked on grease use an abrasive pad in conjunction with a stainless steel cleaner. Always rub in the direction of the grain.

Note: Stainless steel tends to corrode in presence of chlorides and sulfides especially in coastal areas. To ensure corrosion prevention, wash all stainless steel surfaces every three to four weeks with fresh water and stainless cleaner. Keep grill covered when not in use.

Removing the burners for cleaning

Ensure the grill is OFF and cool.

Remove the grill grates, then lift out the radiant tray.

Use a screw driver to open the bracket slot at the rear of the unit

Press the bracket down while pulling the burner back and up. This should remove the burner from the bracket at the rear and the opening in the control panel.

Angle the burner sideways to remove.

Burner cleaning

Clean the exterior of the burner with a stainless steel wire brush. Clear stubborn scale with a metal scraper. Clear any clogged ports with a straightened paper clip. Never use a wooden toothpick as it may break off and clog the port. Shake out any debris through the air shutter. Use a flashlight to inspect the burner inlet to ensure it is not blocked. If obstructions can be seen, use a metal wire to remove.

With the burner removed, remove the orifice and shine a flashlight through the opening to ensure there is no blockage. Use a needle to clear any debris. Be extremely careful not to enlarge the hole or break the needle.

Burner alignment

Ensure the air shutters are not misaligned from their original position. Lower the rear of the burner into the cutouts on the support channel at the rear of the burner box. Ensure it is level and does not rock. Light all of the burners and check that the flame is blue, stable and even (refer to page 15 for detail). Complete any adjustments prior to cooking.

If there is a problem with your grill, please check the following before contacting your local Fisher & Paykel trained and supported service technician or DCS Customer Care Centre.
