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.
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.

LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS
Push in and hold the selected dial for 2
seconds before turning to SEAR. Hold for 5
seconds to light the selected burner.
If burner does not light in 5 seconds,
turn dial back to OFF and wait 5 minutes
before trying again. This will allow any
accumulated gas to dissipate.

USING THE GRILL
W SHAPED GRATE RADIUS GRATE
Chicken Lobster
Steaks Shrimp
Bread Scallops
Sausages Flat breads
Dual-sided grates
The dual-sided grate provides cooking options for food of varying textures. One side has a
W-shaped surface that creates nice sear lines for steaks, chicken, chops and routes oil and
grease away from food. The other side has a radius surface area providing more support for
handling of delicate food items.
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.

14
LEAK TESTING
1
2
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.
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.
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.
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.

BURNER 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.

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.
Ensure the grill is OFF and cool.
To access the air shutters, remove
the grate, radiant and U-burner.
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 counter-
clockwise, if the flame is noisy and
tends to lift turn the air shutter
clockwise.

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.

CARE AND CLEANING
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
zzThe easiest way to clean the grill is immediately after cooking is completed.
zzWear a mitt to protect your hand from the heat and steam.
zzDip 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.

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.
