WARNING!

Fisher & Paykel BH1-48RS-N - WARNING! - 1

Hot Surface Hazard

Accessible parts may become hot during use.

Do not touch surface units or areas near units of the grill.

Hood must be opened before lighting the grill.

Never let clothing or other flammable materials come in contact with or get too close to any grate, burner or hot surface until it has cooled. Fabric may ignite and result in fire or personal injury.

Never lean over an open grill. When lighting a burner, always pay close attention to what you are doing. Be certain you are pushing the burner knob when you attempt to light the grill.

When using the grill, do not touch the grill burner, grate, or immediate surrounding area as these areas become extremely hot and could cause burns.

Grease is flammable. Never operate the grill without a grease tray. Let hot grease cool before attempting to handle it. Avoid letting grease deposits collect in the drip pan.

Clean the grill with caution. Avoid steam burns; do not use a wet sponge or cloth to clean the grill while it is hot. Some cleaners produce noxious fumes or can ignite if applied to a hot surface.

Use only dry potholders; moist or damp potholders on hot surfaces may cause burns from steam. Do not use a towel or bulky cloth in place of potholders. Do not let potholders touch hot portions of the grill or burner grate.

To avoid burns when cooking, use long handled BBQ tools.

Failure to follow this advice may result in burns and scalds or serious injury.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS!

  • Children should not be left alone or unattended in an area where the grill is being used. Never allow them to sit, stand or play on or around the grill at any time. When in use, portions of the grill get hot enough to cause severe burns.
  • Do not store items of interest to children around or below the grill, in the cart or masonry enclosure. Never allow children to crawl inside a cart or enclosure.
  • After a period of storage or non-use (such as over the winter), the gas grill should be checked for gas leaks, deterioration, proper assembly, and burner obstructions before using.
  • Do not heat unopened food containers as a build-up of pressure may cause the container to burst.
  • Always use a covered hand when opening the grill lid and only do so slowly to allow heat and steam to escape.
  • Do not try lighting this appliance without reading the “LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS” section of this manual (page 21).
    • After lighting burners, make sure burners are operating normally (see page 18).
  • Do not use aluminum foil to line drip pans or grill grates or radiants. This can severely upset combustion air flow or trap excessive heat in the control area. The result of this can be melted knobs or damaged ignition components.
  • Do not operate with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in any manner. Contact the manufacturer for repair.
  • Do not let the rotisserie cord hang over the edge of a table or touch hot surfaces.
  • Do not use an outdoor cooking appliance for purposes other than intended.
  • For personal safety, wear proper apparel. Loose fitting garments or sleeves should never be worn while using this appliance. Some synthetic fabrics are highly flammable and should not be worn while cooking. Only certain types of glass, heat-proof glass ceramic, earthenware, or other glazed utensils are suitable for grill use. These types of materials may break with sudden temperature changes. Use only on low or medium heat settings according to the manufacturer's directions.
  • Spiders and insects can nest in the grill burners, causing gas not to flow through the burner. The gas will flow from the front of the burner into the control panel. This is a very dangerous condition which can cause a fire to occur behind the valve panel, thereby damaging the grill components and making it unsafe to operate.
  • Keep the area surrounding the grill free from combustible materials, trash, or combustible fluids and vapors such as gasoline, charcoal or lighter fluid. Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air.
  • Never use the grill in windy conditions. If located in a consistently windy area (oceanfront, mountaintop, etc.) a wind break will be required. Always adhere to the specified clearances as defined in the “INSTALLATION” section of this manual. Refer to the “Grill Placement” section for details if fitting a wind break.
  • CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65-WARNING: The burning of gas cooking fuel generates some by-products which are on the list of substances which are known by the State of California to cause cancer or reproductive harm. California law requires businesses to warn customers of potential exposure to such substances. To minimize exposure to these substances, always operate this unit according to the manual, ensuring you provide good ventilation when cooking with gas.
  • This outdoor cooking gas appliance is not intended to be installed in or on recreational vehicles, trailers and/or boats.
  • Note: this product must be installed by a licensed plumber or gas fitter when installed within the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
  • When using the side burners always use flat bottomed pans which are large enough to cover the side burner. Adjust the flame so that it heats only the bottom of the pan to avoid ignition of clothing. Position handles inward away from open edges of the unit to avoid burns associated with unintentional spillovers. Hold the handle of the pan to prevent movement of it when turning or stirring food. For proper lighting and performance of the burners keep the ports clean. It is necessary to clean periodically for optimum performance.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS!

  • Be sure all grill controls are turned off and the grill is cool before using any type of aerosol cleaner on or around the grill. The chemical that produces the spraying action could, in the presence of heat, ignite or cause metal parts to corrode.
  • Never grill without the drip pan and grease tray in place and pushed all the way to the back of the grill. Without it hot grease could leak downward and produce a fire or explosion hazard.
  • Do not place griddle plates (some models only) side by side on the grill or on top of the Infrared Hybrid Burner.
  • Do not use the Infrared Hybrid Burner on BGB-36" or BGB-48" models. Use on BH1-36" & BH1-48" models only.
  • If a cart unit is stored indoors, ensure that it is cool, fold the side shelf down, then push the grill, never pull. Never push or pull on the side shelves. If LP, the cylinder must be unhooked and the LP cylinder stored outside in a well ventilated area, out of reach of children.

- Never use the grill in a windy area.

  • Do not locate, store or operate the grill on an inclined plane. Make sure you lock the castor wheels before operating the grill.
  • Do not use charcoal or lighter fluid in the outdoor grill.
  • Keep any electrical supply cord, or the rotisserie motor cord away from the heated areas of the grill and water (pools, fountains, puddles).
  • Never use a dented or rusty LP tank. Keep the ventilation openings of the cylinder enclosure free and clear from debris.

- Do not move the appliance during its use.

  • This unit is for outdoor use only. Do not operate in enclosed areas. This could result in carbon monoxide build-up which would result in injury or death.
  • When using a grill, be sure that all parts of the unit are firmly in place and that the grill is stable (can't be tipped over).
  • To put out flare-ups, adjust the controls to lower the temperature
  • Never attach or disconnect an LP cylinder, or move or alter gas fittings when the grill is in operation or is hot.
  • Clean and perform general maintenance on the grill twice a year. Watch for corrosion, cracks, or insect activity. Check the regulator, hoses, burner ports, air shutter, and venturi/valve section carefully. Always turn off gas at the source (tank or supply line) prior to inspecting parts.
  • If you own or use a spare tank, or have a disconnected tank, you should NEVER store it near or under the grill/cart unit or heat box, or near any other ignition or heat source. A metallic sticker with this warning is provided with the grill to remind you, your family and all others who may use your BBQ grill of these safety precautions.

Location

When determining a suitable location, take into account concerns such as exposure to wind, proximity to traffic paths and keeping any gas or electrical supply lines as short as possible and away from heat sources. Locate the grill only in a well ventilated area. Do not build the grill under overhead unprotected combustible construction. Never locate the grill in a building, garage, breezeway, shed or other such enclosed areas. During heavy use, the grill will produce a lot of heat and smoke. Ensure that the grill is used in a well ventilated area.

If locating the grill in a windy area, try to locate the grill so the prevailing wind will blow air at the front of the grill as shown in Fig. 01b. This will assist the grill in venting hot air through the back of the grill. In addition, this will help keep any smoke from blowing at someone who is cooking on the grill. If you have to locate the grill in a windy area where the prevailing wind is at the rear of the grill (Fig. 01a), a windscreen must be installed. The windscreen should be set-up so that it blocks wind from entering the exhaust vent in the rear of the unit as shown in Fig. 01c. Location of the windscreen relative to rear of the grill must adhere to the clearances specified for combustible or non-combustible construction as defined in these instructions. Refer to following pages.

As a high-performance gas appliance, your grill requires significant amounts of air to support the combustion process. Your grill is designed to take air in through the valve panel area, and send the exhaust products out through the exhaust gap at the rear of the hood. Using your grill in windy conditions can disrupt the proper flow of air though your grill, leading to reduced performance, or in certain severe cases, causing heat buildup in the valve panel area. This can lead to problems such as having the knobs melt, or burn hazards when the valve panel surfaces become too hot to touch.

Please note that damage to your grill resulting from use in windy conditions, such as melted knobs or igniter wires, or valve panel discoloration from heat build-up, are excluded from warranty coverage.

Locating Built-in Clearances

IMPORTANT!

Gas fittings, regulator, and installer supplied shut-off valves must be easily accessible.

FIG. 01c

If wind is an issue, a windscreen should be added. The windscreen should be higher than the top of the opening in the back of the grill, with a minimum clearance of 3" (76mm) for non-combustibles, or 18" (457mm) for combustibles, from the back of the grill.

Locating Built-in Clearances

Clearances to non-combustible construction\*

A minimum of 3" clearance from the back of the grill to non-combustible construction is required for the purpose of allowing the lid to open fully. It is desirable to allow at least 6" rear and side clearance to non-combustible construction above the cooking surface for counter space. If you'll be using the rotisserie option, the space is essential for motor and skewer clearance. The grill can be placed directly adjacent to non-combustible construction below the cooking surface (Fig. 02).

NON-COMBUSTIBLE SURFACE

*DEFINITION OF NON-COMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL - Material which is not capable of being ignited and burned, such as materials consisting entirely of, or a combination of, steel, iron, brick tile, concrete, slate, and plaster.

IMPORTANT!

  • Failure to maintain required clearances creates a fire hazard that may result in property damage or serious personal injury.
  • The grill is designed to function in an open area. Recommended minimum clearances should be maintained to all surfaces (combustible and non-combustible) for optimum performance. Non-combustible material within the minimum clearance area could result in discoloration or deterioration.
  • If a non-combustible material such as stucco is covering a combustible material such as wood, the minimum clearance distance needs to be considered for wood. The presence of a non-combustible material inside the clearance zone does not eliminate the minimum clearance zone to combustible material.

General

The grill is designed for easy placement into built-in masonry enclosures. For non-combustible applications the grill drops into the opening shown in Fig. 04 and hangs from its side flanges. A deck is not required to support it from the bottom. When using the insulated jacket in a combustible enclosure application, see the Fig. 05. The insulation jacket assembly must be supported from the bottom by a ledge on each side and back or a solid deck.

A spirit level should be used to ensure that the unit is level both front-to-back and side-to-side. If it is not level, burner combustion may be erratic or the unit may not function efficiently for grease flow. If the floor is uneven, re-leveling may be required whenever a freestanding unit is moved.

Locating Built-in Clearances

Clearances to combustible construction\*\*

Minimum of 18" (457 mm) from the sides and rear of grill must be maintained to adjacent vertical combustible construction, above the counter top level. You should take in account that there is a large volume of heat, and smoke will exhaust from the rear of the grill. This may discolor or damage unprotected areas. Do not install under unprotected combustible construction without using a fire safe ventilation system.

A 18" (457mm) minimum clearance must be maintained under the counter top to combustible construction. The clearance can be modified by a use of an insulated jacket.

COMBUSTIBLE SURFACE

**DEFINITION OF COMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL - Any materials of a building structure or decorative structure made of wood, compressed paper, plant fibers, vinyl/plastic or other materials that are capable of transferring heat or being ignited and burned. Such material shall be considered combustible even though flame-proofed, fire-retardant treated or surface-painted, or plastered.

IMPORTANT!

It is recommended that a minimum of two 12 1/4x12 1/4" (311 x 311mm) vents be provided in order to safely dissipate unburned gas vapors in the event of a gas supply leak. These are to be located on each side of the enclosure and within 5" (127mm) of the top.

Insulated jacket

If the grill is to be placed into a combustible enclosure, an approved insulated jacket is necessary. Insulated jackets are available from your dealer. Use only the DCS insulated jacket which has specifically been designed and tested for this purpose. Review the detail drawing shown (Fig. 05) and take into account the provisions shown for gas line hook-up clearance in the right rear corner. It is required that ventilation holes are provided in the enclosure to eliminate the potential build-up of gas in the event of a gas leak. The supporting ledges or deck must be level and flat and strong enough to support the grill and insulated jacket. The counter should also be level.

IMPORTANT!

Installing this product into a combustible enclosure without an insulated jacket could result in fire, property damage and personal injury.

Built-in Construction Details

Standard layout for non-combustible cavity

IMPORTANT!

If installing the grill into a non-combustible enclosure, all combustible construction must still be outside the 18" (457mm) clearance zone. If your island is made of stucco over the top of wooden studs, the wood can not be inside the 18 inch clearance zone to combustible, even though the stucco is what is touching the grill area.

Gas Hook-up

LP cart hook-up

Grills orificed for use with LP gas come equipped with a high capacity hose/regulator assembly for connection to a standard 20 lb. LP cylinder (Type 1). The LP tank is not included. The grill system is leak tested, do not remove the Regulator/Hose assembly from the grill during cart installation.

Connection: LP Hose with a Type 1 quick disconnect and regulator is included. Operating pressure: 11.0" W.C. Note: all gas piping and connectors must conform to the Standard for Connectors for Outdoor Gas Appliances and Manufactured Homes, ANSI Z21.75/CSA 6.27.

To connect the LP regulator/hose assembly to the tank/valve assembly, first make sure the main valve on the tank is completely closed. Although the flow of gas is stopped when the Type 1 system is disconnected as part of its safety feature, you should always turn off the LP tank main valve (Fig. 07) after each use and during transport of the tank or unit. Insert the regulator inlet into the tank valve and turn to the black coupler clockwise until the coupler tightens up. Do not overtighten the coupler. Turn the main tank valve on and turn the burner control valves on the unit to the "HI" position for about 20 seconds to allow the air in the system to purge. Turn valves off and wait 5 minutes before attempting to light the burners.

To disconnect the coupler, first make sure the main tank valve is turned off. Grasp the coupler and turn counter clockwise. The inlet will then disengage. Remove the inlet from the tank valve opening if it has not already done so when it disengaged. Your local LP filling station should be equipped with the proper equipment to fill your tank.

FIG. 07 LP Gas - Cart

IMPORTANT!

- Before connecting LP tank to regulator, check that all grill burners and rotisserie valves are in the OFF position and open grill hood.

- Do not place the Grill directly on the ground or any other flat surface without support. This will prevent damaging the regulator/hose assembly by the weight of the grill.

- Check the hose, regulator and connectors for damage. Look for cracks, abrasions, brittleness, holes, dents and nicks.

- Do not attempt to remove, repair, or replace the regulator/hose assembly by yourself. It must be done by a qualified licensed technician only.

LP tank requirements

A dented or rusty LP tank may be hazardous and should be checked by your LP supplier. The cylinder that is used must have a collar to protect the cylinder valve. Never use a cylinder with a damaged valve. Always check for leaks after every LP tank change. The LP gas cylinder must be constructed and marked in accordance with the specifications for LP gas cylinders of the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT or CAN/CSA-B339) and designed for use with a Type 1 system only. Do not change the regulator/hose assembly from that supplied with the unit or attempt to use a Type 1 equipped regulator/hose assembly with a standard 510 POL tank/valve assembly. The cylinder must be provided with a shut-off valve terminating in an LP gas supply cylinder valve outlet specified, as applicable, for connection Type 1. If the appliance is stored indoors, the cylinder must be disconnected and removed from the appliance. Cylinders must be stored outdoors in a well-ventilated area out of the reach of children.

Gas Hook-up

LP built-in hook-up

If the grill is to be installed in a built-in application, then the grill must be installed in accordance with the built-in installation guidelines and the LP regulator/hose assembly must be removed from the product.

Connection: LP Hose with a Type 1 quick disconnect and regulator is included. Operating pressure: 11.0" W.C. All gas piping and connectors must conform to the Standard for Connectors for Outdoor Gas Appliances and Manufactured Homes, ANSI Z21.75/CSA 6.27.

If you intend to operate your built-in grill on LP gas utilizing a 20v lb type 1 cylinder, then a built-in LP tank restraint must be installed prior to initial use of the grill. The Installer must supply 12 " ID Flex hose and fixed pipe and a flare adaptor as indicated in Fig. 08.

FIG. 08 LP Gas - Built-in

Note: when an LP unit is being directly connected to an LP house system, you must follow the natural gas hook up guidelines.

The installer must provide the proper gas regulator to reduce the gas pressure to 11" W.C.

IMPORTANT!

Gas piping and connectors must be clamped within the enclosure to avoid contact with moving parts and hot surfaces. Where the gas piping passes through an opening in the enclosure, the piping must be protected for a distance of at least 2" (50mm) either side of the opening.

Leak Testing

IMPORTANT!

Gas leak testing must be carried out by a qualified technician.

General

Although all gas connections on the grill are leak tested at the factory prior to shipment, a complete gas tightness check must be performed at the installation site due to possible mishandling in shipment, or excessive pressure unknowingly being applied to the unit. Periodically check the whole system for leaks, or immediately check if the smell of gas is detected.

Before Testing

Do not smoke while leak testing. Extinguish all open flames. Never leak test with an open flame.

Make a soap solution of one part liquid detergent and one part water. You will need a spray bottle, brush, or rag to apply the solution to the fittings. For LP units, check with a full cylinder. The valve panel must be removed to check the valves and fittings. Remove the knobs and the safety valve knob, then remove the 2 screws which fasten the valve panel to the unit (you will need a Philips screw driver for this). Pull the valve panel outward and unplug the wires from the ignition module. In the back of the unit remove the screws which hold the service panel in place. Remove the service panel.

To Test

Make sure all control valves are in the "OFF" position. Turn the gas supply "ON". Check all connections from the supply line, or LP cylinder up to and including the manifold pipe assembly. Apply the soap solution around the connection, valve, tubing and end of the manifold. Avoid getting the soap solution on or in the valve switches. Soap bubbles will appear where a leak is present. If a leak is present, immediately turn off gas supply, tighten any leaking connections, turn gas on, and recheck. Check all the gas connections at the base of the control valves where they screw into the manifold pipe.

To check rotisserie burner and safety valve the burner must be lit, then leak test the connections located behind the service panel. If you cannot stop a gas leak turn off the gas supply and call your local gas utility, or the dealer you purchased the appliance from. Only those parts recommended by the manufacturer should be used on the grill. Substitution can void the warranty.

IMPORTANT!

  • Do not use the grill until all connections have been checked and do not leak.
  • Check all gas supply fittings for leaks before each use. Keep a spray bottle of soapy water near the gas supply shut-off valve. Spray all the fittings, bubbles indicate leaks.

Burner Adjustment

IMPORTANT!

Before lighting, inspect the gas supply piping or hose prior to turning the gas "on". If there is evidence of cuts, wear, or abrasion, it must be replaced prior to use.

Grill burner air adjustment

Each grill burner is tested and adjusted at the factory prior to shipment; however, variations in the local gas supply or a conversion from one gas to another may make it necessary to adjust the burners. The flames of the burners (except the rotisserie burner) should be visually checked and compared to that of the drawing in Fig.12. Flames should be blue and stable with no yellow tips (LP units may have some yellow tipping), excessive noise or lifting. If any of these conditions exist, check if the air shutter or burner ports are blocked by dirt, debris, spider webs, etc. Proceed with air shutter adjustment. The amount of air which enters a burner is governed by a metal cup at the inlet of the burner called an air shutter. It is locked in place by a screw which must be loosened prior to lighting the burner for adjustment.

Fisher & Paykel BH1-48RS-N - Grill burner air adjustment - 1

text_image 3/8" (10mm) 1 ½" (38mm)

FIG. 12

Grill burner flame height

Before beginning, ensure the grill is off and cool. To access the grill burner air shutters, first remove the grates and radiants from the firebox, then remove the grill burner using instructions shown on page 35. With a screw driver, loosen the lock screw on the face of the air shutter slightly so that the air shutter can be adjusted.

To adjust

① Be careful as the burner may be very hot.
② If the flame is yellow, indicating insufficient air, turn the air shutter counter-clockwise to allow more air to the burner.
③ If the flame is noisy and tends to lift away from the burner, indicating too much air, turn the air shutter clockwise.

Note: reinstall the U-burner, ensuring the burner is level. Light the burner and check the flame. If the color of the flame is blue and the height is stable, remove the burner and tighten the air shutter screw. If the flames show instability or an inconsistent color, repeat the above procedure to readjust the air shutter.

Low flame setting adjustment

The valves on the grill feature an adjustable low setting. Due to fluctuations in gas pressure, heating value or gas conversion, you may feel it necessary to increase or decrease gas flow in the low position. We do not recommend adjusting the infrared rotisserie burner.

To adjust

① Light the burner.
② Turn the control knob to the lowest setting (counter-clockwise).
③ Remove the knob.
④ While holding the valve shaft with pliers, insert a thin, flat tipped screwdriver into the shaft and while viewing the burner adjust to a minimum stable flame.

Side burner 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.

Fisher & Paykel BH1-48RS-N - Side burner flame height - 1

text_image BEZEL VALVE STEM

FIG. 13

  • For safety reasons the flame must never extend beyond the bottom of the cooking utensil. Never allow flames to curl up the side of the pan.
  • Utensils which conduct heat slowly (such as glass-ceramic) should be used with medium to low flames. If you are cooking with a large amount of liquid, a slightly larger flame can be used.

Radiant Assembly

IMPORTANT!

Before assembling the radiant, check that the radiant trays have not moved during transit. They should sit securely on their locating pins in the base of the grill.

Lighting Instructions

Grill lighting instructions

IMPORTANT!

Open the grill lid and/or remove the top grate cover from side burner (for BH1-48RS) before lighting. Turn all knobs to "OFF". Turn the main gas supply on. If you smell gas, shut-off gas supply and call for customer care.

Grill lighting instructions

The grill knob is connected to the electronic ignition module. Pushing in on the burner knob will activate the ignition module to get a spark. Push in and turn the selected burner knob to HI/SEAR position. Release the knob when the burner lights. If burner does not light in four to five seconds, turn knob "OFF" and wait five minutes before trying again so any accumulated gas may dissipate.

Grill Match Lighting

If the burner will not light after several attempts, then the burner can be match lit. If you've just attempted to light the burner with the ignition, allow five minutes for any accumulated gas to dissipate. Keep your face as far away from the outdoor appliance as possible and hold a paper book match over the hole located on the top left for burner on the left, or the right hole for the right burner (Fig. 13). Push in and turn the control knob which is centered on the burner where the lit match is located, to "SEAR". If the burner does not light in four seconds, turn the knob off, wait five minutes and try again.

Lighting Instructions

To Light Dual Side Burners (48BQR Models only)

IMPORTANT!

The side burner cover may be hot if the grill burners are in operation.

Side Burners Lighting Instructions

First remove the burner cover and any cooking utensils from the burner grate. The control knob is connected to the electronic ignition module. Pushing in on the control knob will activate the ignition module to get a spark. Push the control knob in and turn to "HI". If burner does not light in four to five seconds, turn knob "OFF" and wait five minutes before trying again for any accumulated gas to dissipate. If the burner will not light after several attempts, check the trouble shooting instructions on page 37.

Side Burners Match Lighting

Hold a lit paper book match near the burner ports, turn the control knob counterclockwise to "HI". Move your hand immediately once the burner is lit. Rotate the control knob to the desired setting.

Note: 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 "extinction pop" is normal for propane gas.

Side burners

Your side burner is equipped with burners typical of those used in restaurants. These burners are designed for maximum cleanability and controlability. The burner should never be operated if the cap is not in place (Fig. 16).

Grilling

Grill

Each grill section consists of a large stainless steel burner, stainless steel heat baffles, a series of ceramic rods encased in a stainless steel radiant, and a stainless steel heat retaining grate. Each burner is rated at 25,000 Btu/hr or 26,5MJ/h. Below the burners there is a stainless steel heat baffle which reflects usable heat upward into the cooking area and reduces temperatures of the drip pan below. Above the burners are stainless steel radiants which encase the ceramic rods and protect the grill burner ports from blockage (Fig. 17).

Fisher & Paykel BH1-48RS-N - Grill - 1

natural_image Technical line drawing of a metal grate structure with ribbed and stepped components (no text or symbols)

FIG.17

The grill is supplied with radiant ceramic rods. Because of the porosity of ceramic rods, performance is superior in the rods' ability to capture heat as it rises from the grill burners. They also possess the thermal mass needed for even cooking performance. Flare ups are controlled because the radiant ceramic rods keeps grease from getting to the flames and igniting. The intense heat produced by this system produces true grilled flavor as fats and juices are brought to the surface of the food and caramelized. Discoloration of the grates is normal after use.

Direct/indirect cooking notes

Direct cooking involves placing food on grates over lighted burners. Use this method for foods that take less than 20 minutes to cook or to sear larger items at the start of the cooking process that will then be indirectly cooked to finish. Place items on the preheated surface and leave until they no longer stick. Turning too soon and too often is one of the most common grilling mistakes. Never spray water on the grill or into grease. The patented Grease Management System™ reduces flare-ups by channeling grease away from the flame. Use a meat thermometer to achieve desired doneness and remove items one degree below how you would like to enjoy them, as the resting period before carving or consuming will raise the temperature.

Indirect cooking method is a popular alternative to direct heat grilling. Indirect cooking uses heat from adjacent burners to cook food and, in many cases, reduces the possibility of overcooked or overly browned food. Foods most appropriate for indirect grilling included breads, thicker pieces of chicken or steaks. Indirect cooking involves placing the food on grates where the burners below are not lit and then closing the grill top to create an oven effect. All the items you usually oven-roast can be grilled to perfection using indirect heating. Preheat the burners surrounding the food to be cooked. Use your basting pan to hold food and add water or chicken broth to the pan to prevent the natural juices from burning or evaporating.

Direct Heat Grilling Indirect Heat Grilling
Fisher & Paykel BH1-48RS-N - Direct/indirect cooking notes - 1

text_image FOOD GRILL RACK BURNER HEAT HEAT HEAT HEAT HEAT BURNER OFF

IMPORTANT!

  • Season your grates before first use and then periodically to protect the grate surface from corrosion, and to stop food sticking. See 'Care and Maintenance'. To season the grates, pour a tablespoon of vegetable oil on a soft cloth and rub on both sides of the grates. Only a light coating is needed and some smoke may be visible during the preheating.
  • Grilling requires high heat for searing and proper browning. Most foods are cooked at the “MEDIUM” to “LOW” 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 a lower setting after the initial browning. This cooks the food through without burning the outside. 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.

Grilling

① Ensure that the drip pan and grease tray are in place.
② Light the grill burners following the lighting instructions.
③ Once you have verified the burners are lit, put the hood down to preheat for five to 10 minutes.
④ Place the food on the grill and cook to the desired doneness. Adjust heat setting, if necessary. The control knob may be set to any position between “SEAR” and “LOW”.
⑤ When you have finished using the grill, turn the control knobs to "OFF" and shut off the main gas supply.
⑥ Allow the grill to cool and clean the grates, drip pan and grease tray after each use.

Note: if using LP gas, your preheat time may be shorter than recommended. To prevent overcooking or burning, you may want to lower the heat settings.

Using the temperature gauge

When preheating the grill, use the temperature gauge in the hood to check if the grill has reached the desired heat setting.

Note: the temperature gauge only indicates air temperature inside the grill. For food safety and optimal cooking performance, use a meat probe to check the temperature of meat while cooking and to ensure desired internal temperatures are reached.

Dual-sided grates

Whether you or your guests crave seafood, steak or veggies, the double-sided grates provide varying surfaces for varying textures. The “W”-shaped side creates nice sear lines for steaks, chicken and chops and routes oil and grease away from the food. The opposite “radius” side offers more surface area for support and handling of delicate items like scallops (see below for a sample list of which foods to cook on which side of the grate).

Grilling hints

The doneness of meat, whether rare, medium or well done, can depend on the thickness of the cut. The cooking time of meat is dependent on the kind of meat, size, shape and cut along with the temperature of the meat when cooking begins. Expert chefs say it is impossible to have a rare doneness with a thin cut of meat. When defrosting meats, it is recommended to defrost overnight in a refrigerator as opposed to a microwave. This will ensure meat retains it juices. Use a spatula instead of tongs or a fork to turn the meat, as a spatula will not puncture the meat and let the juices run out. To get the juiciest meats, add seasoning or salt after the cooking is finished and turn the meat only once (juices are lost when the meat is turned several times). Turn the meat just after the juices begin to bubble to the surface. Trim any excess fat from the meat before cooking. To prevent steaks or chops from curling during cooking, slit the fat around the edges at two-inch intervals.

The cuts, temperatures, weights and grilling times in the following charts are meant to serve as a guideline. Environmental factors such as wind, outside temperature and altitude can affect cooking times, so should be taken into consideration. The USDA's definition of medium doneness is used for the cooking times of beef and lamb, unless otherwise stated. Before carving, let roasts and other large cuts of meat (including thick steaks) rest for 5 to 10 minutes after cooking. The internal temperature will increase slightly during this time.

For indirect cooking, we suggest placing the meat in the secondary cooking area in the lower or upper position depending on size and desired temperature.

The smoker system on each grill consists of a stainless steel slide out tray which is positioned above a 3,500 Btu/hr or 3.7 MJ/h burner. The burner is controlled by a precision brass valve which is capable of being turned down to very low heat levels. The system may be used alone for low temperature roasting and smoking or in conjunction with any combination of other burners. When using the smoker system in conjunction with the optional infrared rotisserie burner, you'll find it helpful to use the low setting of the smoker burner to minimize the heat rising up to the rotisserie basting pan. Staggering the meat away from the smoker burner also helps.

To minimize burn potential do not completely remove the smoker tray when hot.

To light the smoker burner

Open the lid and remove the smoker tray. Locate the burner visually by looking through the cut-out in the valve panel. Push in the burner knob and turn to the "HI" position until the burner is lit. If the burner doesn't ignite, wait five minutes for any accumulated gas to dissipate, then try again. If the burner will not light after several attempts, wait five minutes, then match light using a paper book match through the cut-out in the valve panel. Once lit, fill the smoker tray and replace.

Wood chips

There are many wood chips available for purchase and selection is based on personal taste. The most common wood chips used are mesquite or hickory. Mesquite has a sweeter taste and is commonly used with poultry and seafood. Hickory is best suited for red meats. Use of oak, cherry, maple, aspen or apple is also common while aromatic herbs like sage, bay leaves, thyme or basil may also be used. Soaking the chips in water before using them will help ensure the wood chips smoke and do not flame up. To start, you may want to use the "HI" position to start the chips smoking, then reduce the heat to a lower level to prevent them from drying out and flaming. If the wood chips do flame up, add a small amount of water to extinguish the flame. This should be done carefully through the top in the grill area, or by pulling the tray out slightly. Use caution when adding water to a hot tray to avoid steam burns, and never completely remove a hot tray. When smoking, the lid should remain closed as much as possible to maximize the effect. During extended roasting periods it is normal to add fresh wood chips to the tray several times.

Your smoker tray comes with a removable smoker lid. For best results we recommend using the smoker lid.

The grill rotisserie system is designed to cook items from the back using infrared heat. The location of the burner allows the placement of the rotisserie basting pan (included) beneath the food to collect juices and drippings for basting and gravy. To flavor the contents of the basting pan, you can add herbs, onion, garlic, or spices. Hams are especially good with the addition of pineapple slices and brown sugar to the basting pan. The rotisserie burner is an infrared type which provides intense searing radiant heat. Preferred by chefs over other methods, this intense heat is magnificent for searing in the natural juices and nutrients found in quality cuts of meat.

Once lit, the rotisserie burner will reach cooking temperatures in about one minute. The orange/red glow will even out in about five minutes. The rotisserie motor is equipped with metal gears and is capable of turning up to a 50 lb. cut of meat or poultry. The rotisserie motor on the grills is secured down to a cast rotisserie block with two black screw-down knobs. The rotisserie block is in turn bolted to the right side panel. The rod for the rotisserie is assembled into the motor assembly by placing the pointed end into the motor, and resting the handle end on the support at the left side of the grill. With the rod pushed as far as possible into the motor, the round end of the rod should rest on the rollers.

The motor is equipped with a halogen bulb to provide light when other sources of light are not sufficient. Use only a 50W (or its equivalent) Max. Halogen Narrow Flood replacement bulb.

IMPORTANT!

Halogen lamps are constructed of a glass bulb with a pressurized internal filament tube that operates at high temperatures and could unexpectedly shatter. Should the outer bulb break, particles of extremely hot glass could be discharged into the fixture enclosure and/or surrounding environment, thereby creating a risk of personal injury or fire. When replacing the bulb, let the bulb cool, and assure that power to the light has been turned off. Never allow the hot bulb to come into contact with water. DO NOT TOUCH the light bulb when in use. It may be hot enough to cause injury.

IMPORTANT!

Do not use the grill burners when the rotisserie burner is on. It will burn your meat and make it very dry. Use only one section at a time, grill or rotisserie.

Preparation

Recommended: dental floss or butcher string, scissors, broiler pan (bottom only), pliers, meat probe, foil, and hot pads.

Working area

Allow enough space to accommodate food and rotisserie rod assembly in a clean environment.

Meat preparation

Tie meat with butcher string or dental floss in three areas. Purchase a roast that is equally balanced from top to bottom in size to ensure meat will cook evenly while on the rotisserie. For poultry, tie wings and legs to the body using dental floss or butcher string to prevent flopping around while turning.

To light the rotisserie burner before cooking

The location of the rotisserie burner makes it more susceptible to strong wind conditions, more so than the protected grill burners. For this reason you should avoid operating the rotisserie during windy conditions. As an added safety feature we've equipped the burner with an automatic safety valve which will not allow gas to flow to the rotisserie burner unless the following conditions are present with the knob on:

① The safety valve button is pressed, and held down.
② The safety valve thermocouple has been sufficiently heated to keep safety valve open.

Open the lid. Push in and hold the burner knob. You'll hear a snapping sound. Turn the burner knob to "HI". Engage the safety valve button and continue to hold until the burner is lit. Once lit, turn burner knob to desired setting. If the burner does not light within four to five seconds, release the safety valve button and turn the burner knob to "OFF" and wait five minutes before trying again.

• If relighting a hot burner, wait five minutes.
- Never leave the control knob on if rotisserie is not in use.
- Never light the grill burners under the rotisserie while the rear rotisserie burner is lit.

Manual lighting

To manually light the rotisserie, place a butane lighter near the tip of the thermocouple as shown in Fig. 23. Turn the burner knob to "HI". Hold the safety valve button in for about four to five seconds or until the burner remains lit. Once lit, turn burner knob to desired setting. If the burner does not light within four or five seconds, release the safety valve button and turn the burner knob to "OFF" and wait five minutes before trying again.

IMPORTANT!

Keep hands and face away from front of burner! Stand to the side when lighting. Once lit move hand away quickly.

FIG. 23

IMPORTANT!

Electrical Grounding Instructions: this appliance (rotisserie motor) is equipped with a three-prong (grounding) plug for your protection against shock hazard and should be plugged directly into a properly grounded three-prong receptacle or a three-prong grounded extension cord rated for the power of the rotisserie motor and approved for outdoor use with a W-A marking. Do not cut or remove the grounding prong from this plug. Use only a ground fault interrupter (GFI) protected circuit.

The rotisserie motor must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70. Keep the rotisserie motor electric cord away from the heated surfaces of the grill. When not in use, remove and store the motor in a dry location. To protect against electric shock, do not immerse the cord or plug in water or other liquid. Unplug rotisserie unit from the outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow the rotisserie to cool before putting on or taking off parts.

IMPORTANT!

The prongs are very sharp. Keep hands away from tips when removing the food.

Note: cover with foil for a 15 to 20 minute waiting time. Meat will carve better and juices will go back into the meat.

Battery replacement

IMPORTANT!

Battery condition should be checked at least once a year.

① Remove drip pan.
② Open cart door (on cart model only).
③ Pull battery downwards (this may require use of pliers).
④ Re-install upward and push to snap (polarity shown in Fig. 24).

FIG. 24

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 www.dcsappliances.com. Do not use the grill if the odor of gas is present. If the unit is LP, screw the regulator into the tank and leak check the hose and regulator connections with a soap and water solution before operating the grill. Turn all knobs to "OFF" then turn on the gas supply. If LP, check that there is gas in the tank.

IMPORTANT!

• Always keep your face and body as far away from the grill as possible when lighting.
• DO NOT leave the grill unattended while cooking.
- Keep a spray bottle of soapy water near the gas supply valve and check connections before each use.
- Do not attempt to light the grill if the odor of gas is present.
- Wait five minutes before relighting a hot grill.

Grill grates

Method 1

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

Method 2

The easiest way to clean the grill is immediately after cooking is completed and after turning off the flame. Wear a barbeque mitt to protect your hand from the heat and steam. Dip a soft brass bristle barbeque brush in a mixture of 2 cups of tap water and 1/2 cup of vinegar and scrub the hot grill. Dip the brush frequently in the bowl of water and vinegar. Steam, created as water contacts the hot grill, assists the cleaning process by softening any food particles. The food particles will fall onto the ceramic rods and burn or fall into the drip pan. If the grill is allowed to cool before cleaning, cleaning will be more difficult.

Method 3

Take about 1 foot of aluminum foil, crumpled up in a ball and rub it over cooled grates to release food particles.

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

Drip pan and grease tray

The full width drip pan with grease tray will collect grease from the grill section and boil overs and spills from the side burners. Allow the pan and its contents to cool before attempting to clean. Clean grease from the pan often to avoid the possibility of a grease fire.

Ceramic rods

It is not necessary to remove the ceramic rods for cleaning. They burn themselves clean during the next cooking operation. Periodically the trays holding the ceramic rods need to be turned over, and shaken free of debris for a thorough cleaning. How often you use the grill and the amount and type of food cooked will determine when it is necessary to clean the trays. If grease can be seen on the top of the tubes or if you get a lot of flare-up during cooking, the tubes need to be turned over and heated on "HI" for 30 minutes; longer for heavy soil.

Stainless steel

The grill is made from non-rusting and non-magnetic stainless steel. After initial usage, areas of the grill may discolor from the intense heat given off by the burners, this is normal. There are many different stainless steel cleaners available. Always use the mildest cleaning procedure first, scrubbing in the direction of the grain. To touch up noticeable scratches in the stainless steel, sand very lightly with wet 100 grit emery paper in the direction of the grain. Specks of grease can gather on the surfaces of the stainless steel and bake on to the surface and give the appearance of rust. For removal use an abrasive pad (Scotch Brite is good) 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.

Electrodes

Wipe with a water dampened cotton swab. Be careful not to damage the electrode (see Fig. 25).

To remove the U-Burners for Cleaning

Ensure gas supply has been turned off. Remove the grill grates, then lift out the grill radiant tray. Grip the U-burner as shown in the photo (Fig. 27) and press downwards with your thumbs on the bracket in the back while lifting up on the U-Burner. In some cases it may be necessary to use a screw driver to pry open the slot to release the U-burner (Fig. 26). Pull it up and slightly to the rear of the unit so the burner air shutter head comes off the brass orifice at the front, angle the burner sideways, and remove. After cleaning, when re-installing the U-Burner ensure the U-Burner is completely level and locked in place. This is needed to ensure your grill provides even cooking performance.

Grill 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 coat hanger that has been straightened (See Fig. 28).

Orifice cleaning

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 off the needle.

Be careful not to misalign the air shutters' original position (unless readjusting). Lower the rear of the burner into the cutouts on the support channel at the rear of the burner box. Make sure it is level and does not rock. Light all of the burners and check that the flame is blue, stable and even. If adjustments are necessary, refer to page 18. Complete these adjustments prior to cooking.

Side burners (BH1-48RS model)

For proper lighting and performance keep the burners clean. It is necessary to clean the burners if they do not light even though the electrode clicks, if there has been a severe boil over, or when the flame does not burn blue. Be certain all control knobs are in the off position before attempting to clean the burners. The burners have been designed for ease in cleaning. When the grates and burners are cool, remove the grate. The burner cap and the brass port ring can easily be lifted off. Wash these parts in hot soapy water, rinse and dry thoroughly. The burner caps are porcelain enamel. A bristle brush can be used to clean out the toothed burner ports, if necessary. After cleaning, it is important to make sure the location pins on the bottom side of the port ring are properly aligned with the corresponding holes in the base. Incorrect alignment will produce a potentially dangerous flame and poor burner performance (see Fig. 31).

Smoker burner

The smoker burner can be removed and cleaned by unplugging the electrode wire and lifting out the burner. Cleaning is similar to the grill burner. Replace the burner by sliding the air shutter over the brass orifice, centering it in the hole.
