SAFETY PRACTICES & PRECAUTIONS
GENERAL
When installed and maintained properly, 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 po-
tential. Basic safety precautions must be fol-
lowed when using kitchen appliances, includ-
ing the following:
• Read the Use and Care Manual thoroughly be-
fore using your new appliance.This will help
to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or in-
jury to persons.
•Begin by insuring proper installation and ser-
vicing. Follow the installation instructions
which came with this appliance. Be sure to
have a qualified technician install and ground
this appliance before using.
•Have the installer show you where the gas
supply shutoff valve is located so you will
know how and where to turn off the gas to
the appliance.
•If you smell gas, the installer may not have
done a proper job of checking for leaks. A
small leak may produce a faint gas smell that
may be the result of connections that are not
completely sealed. Finding a gas leak is not a
“do-it-yourself”procedure. Some leaks can
only be found with the burner control in the
ON position. For the customer’s protection
checking connections for gas leaks must be
done by a qualified service technician.
•If by some chance a burner goes out and does
not re-ignite and gas escapes,open a window
or a door to let the room air out. Do not at-
tempt to use the appliance until the gas has
had time to dissipate.
•This appliance has been factory assembled for
Natural Gas or Liquid Propane as indicated.
•Do not repair or replace any part of this ap-
pliance unless it is specifically recommended
in this manual.
CAUTION:
Children should not be left alone or unat-
tended in an area where appliances are in use.
They should never be allowed to turn knobs,
push buttons,sit or stand on any part of an ap-
pliance.
CAUTION:
Do not store items of interest to children on or
around the Drop-In Cooktop.Children could be
seriously injured if they should climb onto or
reach across the appliance to reach these items.
•Never store anything on the cooktop. Flam-
mable materials can accidently catch fire,
plastic items may melt or ignite and other
types of items could be ruined.
•Do not hang articles from any part of the ap-
pliance.Some fabrics are quite flammable and
may catch on fire.
•If the appliance is near a window be certain
the curtains do not blow over or near the
cooktop burners; they could catch on fire.

PRELIMINARY
•Do not use water on grease fires. Turn all
burners OFF, then smother fire with baking
soda or use a dry chemical or foam-type fire
extinguisher.
•Never let clothing,pot holders,or other flam-
mable materials come in contact with, or too
close to any burner or burner grate until it has
cooled. Fabrics may ignite and result in per-
sonal injury.
•Be certain to use only dry pot holders; moist
or damp pot holders on hot surfaces may
cause burn injury from steam. Do not use a
towel or other bulky cloth in place of pot
holders. Do not let pot holders touch hot
burners, or burner grates.
•For personal safety, wear proper apparel.
Loose fitting garments or hanging sleeves
should never be worn while using this appli-
ance. Some synthetic fabrics are highly flam-
mable and should not be worn while cook-
ing.
•Do not use aluminum foil to line any part of
the cooktop. Using a foil liner could result in
a fire hazard.
WARNING:
This appliance is for cooking. Based on
safety considerations, never use the
cooktop to warm or heat a room.
•When using the cooktop: Do not touch the
burner grates or the immediate surround-
ing area. Areas adjacent to the burners may
become hot enough to cause burns.
•Never leave the cooktop unattended when
using high flame settings. A possible boil
over could cause smoking or greasy spillovers
may ignite. More importantly, if the burner
flames are smothered by a severe boil over
which effects the igniter, the unburned gas
will escape into the room, which would be
extremely dangerous.
•Only certain types of glass, heatproof glass-
ceramic, ceramic, earthen ware, or other
glazed utensils are suitable for use on the
open flame of the cooktop. Utensils that are
not thermally heat safe may break with sud-
den temperature changes.
•Do not heat unopened food containers; a
build up of pressure may cause the container
to burst.
•During cooking,set the burner control so that
the flame heats at the bottom of the pan and
does not curl around the bottom edges of the
pan.This could heat and/or melt the handles.
•Always use utensils that have flat bottoms
large enough to cover the burner. The use of
undersized utensils will expose a portion of
the flame to direct contact and may result in
ignition of clothing.
•To minimize burns,ignition of flammable ma-
terials and accidental spillovers, position
handles of utensils inward so they do not ex-
tend over adjacent work areas,cooking areas,
or the outside edges of the cooktop.
•Hold the handle of the pan to prevent move-
ment of the utensil when stirring or turning
food.
•Grease is flammable. Do not use water on
grease fires. Turn OFF the burner, then
smother the fire with baking soda or use a dry
chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher. Let
hot grease cool before attempting to handle
it. Avoid letting grease deposits collect
around the base of the cooktop burners.
Clean after each use or boil over.
•Use splatter screens over pans when frying
foods to minimize possible grease burns. Be
sure not to use a flame that is too high.

PRELIMINARY
•For proper lighting and performance of the
cooktop burners,keep the burner ports clean.
It may be necessary to clean these when there
is a boil over or when the burner does not
light,even though the electronic igniters click.
•Clean the cooktop with caution.Avoid steam
burns; do not use a wet sponge or cloth to
clean the cooktop while it is hot.Some clean-
ers produce noxious fumes if applied to a hot
surface. Follow directions provided by the
cleaner manufacturer.
•Be sure all the cooktop controls are turned off
and the appliance is cool before using any
type of aerosol cleaner on or around the ap-
pliance. The chemical that produces the
spraying action could,in the presence of heat,
ignite or cause metal parts to corrode.
•Clean the ventilator hood and filters above
the cooktop frequently so grease from cook-
ing vapor does not accumulate.
•Turn the ventilator OFF in case of fire or when
intentionally “flaming”liquor or other spirits
on the cooktop. The blower, if in operation,
could spread the flames.
•Do not obstruct the flow of combustion or
ventilation air to the appliance.Be sure a fresh
air supply is available.
•For safety reasons and to avoid damage to the
appliance never sit,stand,or lean on the cook-
ing surface.
•Service should only be done by authorized
technicians.Service technicians must discon-
nect the power supply before servicing this
appliance.

PROPER VENTILATION REQUIREMENTS
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
CAUTION:
Ventilation hoods and blowers are designed for
use with single wall ducting.However, some lo-
cal building codes or inspectors may require
double wall ducting. Consult local building
codes and local agencies before starting,to en-
sure that hood and duct installation will meet
local requirements.Hood blower speeds should
be variable to reduce noise and loss of heated
or air conditioned household air when maxi-
mum ventilation is not required.For best smoke
elimination, the lower edge of the hood should
BE INSTALLED A MINIMUM OF 30″TO A MAXI-
MUM OF 36″ABOVE THE COOKING SURFACE. If
the hood contains any combustible materials
(i.e. a wood covering) it must be a minimum of
36″above the cooking surface. Due to a high
volume of ventilation air, a source of outside
replacement air is recommended. This is par-
ticularly important for tightly sealed and insu-
lated homes.A reputable heating and ventilat-
ing contractor should be consulted.

PRELIMINARY
Be sure to read page 8 for the proper ventila-
tion requirements before you begin.
When making your CUTOUT refer to page 10 for
information on cabinet preparation.
1. Unpack the unit, the regulator, and remove
all packing between all the burners, rings,
and caps. Remove the grates from their
boxes.
2. With the necessary tools and hardware
ready, measure the distance from the back
and sides of the countertop and cabinet to
locate the position of the cooktop cutout.
3. Make your cutout according to the dimen-
sions given on page 10. Square the cutout
to the countertop.
4. Lower the cooktop into the countertop cut-
out, be careful not to damage the counter,
inlet pipe threads, or the power cord of the
cooktop.
5. Square the cooktop to the cutout and install
the (4) retaining brackets onto the 8 holes
located at the bottom of the unit.
PREPARING FOR THE INSTALLATION
NOTE: Some installations may not have ad-
equate clearance at the front for the Z-shaped
retaining bracket. In those cases, use the L-
bracket provided.Fasten the bracket to the bot-
tom of the cooktop chassis using one of the
screw holes provided for the retaining brackets.

CABINET PREPARATION
The Drop-In Cooktop was designed for easy in-
stallation. However, for the best appearance, to
conceal the raw cutout edges and to ensure a
snug and secure fit, the cutouts must be pre-
cise. Use the cutout dimension information in
the figures below for your installation. When
preparing for installation, it is critical that the
cabinet cutout matches the cutout dimensions
provided for the cooktop for a good fit. See il-
lustrations below for specifications.
•For proper performance,the Drop-In Cooktop
must be level. To achieve a flush fit of the
cooktop, it will be necessary to have a flat
cabinet (front to back and left to right).
•Be sure to check local building codes for the
proper method of installation. Local codes
may vary. Installation, Electrical connectors,
and Grounding must comply with all appli-
cable codes.

1. CHECKING THE GAS SUPPLY
Measure the incoming gas pressure to the regu-
lator.
With the installation of this conversion kit, the
cooktop should operate on LP gas at 10″of wa-
ter column pressure and on natural gas at 4″of
water column pressure.
•The pressure regulator must be con-
nected in series with the manifold of the
cooktop and must remain in series with
the supply line.
•When checking the regulator, the inlet
pressure must be at least 1″greater than
the regulator output setting.
–If the regulator is set for 10″of water
column pressure, the inlet pressure
must be at least 11″.
For proper operation, the maximum inlet pres-
sure to the regulator must be no more than 14″
of water column pressure for LP gas and 9″
water column pressure for natural gas.
IMPORTANT:
Disconnect the cooktop and the individual
shut-off valve from the gas supply piping sys-
tem during any pressure testing of that system
at test pressures greater than 1/2 psig. Isolate
the cooktop from the gas supply piping system
by closing the individual manual shut-off valve
to the cooktop during any pressure testing of
the gas supply piping system at test pressures
equal to or less than 1/2 psig.

Burner Adjustment
There is no air shutter adjustment, etc. on this
burner.The only adjustment available is to clean
the burners and clean or replace orifices.
6. CHECK THE FLAME QUALITY
Check for proper burner flame characteristics.
Burner flames should be blue and stable.Some
yellow tipping may be normal on LP Gas. The
flame should not have excessive noise or lift-
ing of the flame from the burner.
Due to differences in gas characteristics and
burner usage (i.e.gas pressure,cleanliness,etc.),
burners may perform differently.
Burner Operation
Two flames are used on all five burners. These
dual flame burners have an upper ring of main
burner ports,which produce the main flame for
high heat cooking from the “HI”knob setting
to the “LO”knob setting.
The bottom simmer flame is used for simmer
heat cooking operations such as melting
chocolate,holding food at serving temperature
and simmering. Both flames are lit when the
knob is between “HI”and “LO”. Only the simmer
flame is lit when the knob is in the “SIM”posi-
tion.
