Guidelines for using the cooktop burners
COOKTOP USE
 All burners have the same low turn-down setting (SIM) for gentle simmering (1,300
BTU/hr). Use the SIM setting for melting chocolate and butter, cooking rice and delicate
sauces, simmering soups and stews, and keeping cooked food hot.
 For cooking that requires especially intense heat (e.g. searing meat, wok-cooking, stir-
frying), use the burners listed below, as these have a higher maximum output (23,500
BTU/hr for Natural gas) than the other burners (18,500 BTU/hr for Natural gas).
 CPV2-485GD models: Center burner
 CPV2-488/CPV2-366: Front left burner or front right burner
 All other models: Front left burner
 Never leave the cooktop unattended when in use. Boilover causes smoking and greasy
spills that may ignite.
 Never allow flames to extend beyond cookware or curl up its sides. This could discolor
and damage the utensil and you may get burned touching a hot handle.
 Keep handles out of the way. Turn handles so that they don’t extend over the edge of
the cooktop or another burner that is on.
 Take care when deep-frying. Oil or fat can overheat very quickly, particularly on a high
setting.
 Make sure that all burner parts are properly in place. Incorrectly or incompletely
assembled burners may produce dangerous flames. See ‘Replacing the burner parts’ in
‘Care and cleaning’.
 Keep the burners clean. Especially after a spill or boilover, make sure you clean the
affected burners before using them again. Food residue may clog the ignitor and the
notches of the flame spreader, stopping the burner from functioning correctly. See ‘Care
and cleaning’ for instructions.
 Check that the burner flames are regular. They should be blue with no yellow tipping,
and burn without fluttering all around the burner cap. If not, see ‘Troubleshooting’ for
advice.
 Use woks only with a wok ring. Wok rings can be purchased separately through your
DCS by Fisher & Paykel dealer or Customer Care. To use, place the wok ring over the
grates, making sure the small protrusions on its bottom straddle the grate fingers. The
wok ring should be stable and unable to rotate.

USING THE GRILL
The grill has a reversible grate. It will change color with use as oils cook onto the
surface. This is normal and doesn’t affect grilling performance.
To use the grill
1Remove the cover and check that the grease drip-pan and the grill grate are properly
in place and you have the best side for your food. The grate should always be sloping
towards the grease drip-pan, with its support bar firmly resting in the groove of the rear
ledge, as shown.
IMPORTANT!
Never turn on or use the grill with the grill cover in place.
2Turn the grill knob counterclockwise to the LITE/HI setting.
 The halo around the knob will glow orange.
 There may be a delay of a minute or so before the grill burner lights. This is normal.
3Allow the empty grill to preheat for about 15 minutes.
4Adjust the heat anywhere between HI (high) and LO (low) during grilling.
5When you have finished using the grill, turn the grill knob clockwise back to OFF.
6Clean the grill grate immediately after use. See ‘Care and cleaning’ for instructions.
7When the grill has cooled down, clean the grease drip-pan. See ‘Care and cleaning’ for
instructions.

USING THE GRILL EN
Grill cooking guidelines
IMPORTANT!
 Never leave the grill unattended during use. Grease drippings may cause short flare-
ups or even sustained flaming. If left unattended, these may cause fire.
 Make sure you have your ventilation hood set on maximum during grilling.
 Clean the grease drip-pan after every use. Accumulated grease can be a fire hazard.
 The longer you preheat the grill, the darker the grill marks will appear on food.
 Trim excess fat off meat to minimize flare-ups.
 Generally, start out on a high setting to sear or brown meat, then lower the setting to
make sure that meat or poultry is cooked through.
 When turning meat over, use tongs or a spatula as these will not puncture the meat and
allow the juices to run out.

14
USING THE GRIDDLE
The griddle will darken and ‘season’ with use, developing a natural non-stick coating.
When it is properly seasoned it can be used without any additional oil.
1Remove the cover and check that the grease drip-pan is properly in place.
IMPORTANT!
 Never turn on or use the griddle with the cover in place.
 Always keep the vents at the rear of the griddle frame clear of any object: airflow to
the vents must not be blocked.
2If you haven’t used the griddle for a long time, re-season it. See section ‘First use -
seasoning the griddle’ for instructions.
3Turn the griddle knob counterclockwise to the desired temperature.
 There may be a delay of a minute or so before the griddle comes on. This is normal.
 While the griddle is heating up, the halo around the knob will glow white.
 See the ‘Griddle cooking chart’ below for suggestions.
4When the halo turns orange (after about 15 minutes), the griddle is ready to use.
 Note: the halo may alternate between white and orange during use as the griddle
maintains the set temperature.
5When you have finished using the griddle, turn its knob clockwise back to OFF.
6Clean the griddle and grease drip-pan after every use. The griddle should be cleaned
very carefully while it is still hot. See ‘Care and cleaning’ for instructions.
IMPORTANT!
Clean the grease drip-pan after every use. Accumulated grease can be a fire hazard.
