Safety and warnings
Important safety instructions
Clean only the parts listed in this manual.
Do not use a steam cleaner to clean any part of the appliance.
Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air to the appliance.
Do not use any cookware on the grill or griddle.
Top cover (lid) must be removed when the grill or griddle is in operation.
When using the grill or griddle, make sure the grease drip-pan is in place – absence of this during
use may subject wiring or components underneath to damage.
The grill and griddle cannot be used in the event of a power failure. Do not attempt to operate
these during power failure.
Do not use aluminum foil to line any part of the cooktop. This will cause heat to be trapped
underneath it. This trapped heat can upset the cooking performance and damage the finish of
the cooktop parts.
For safety reasons, the cooktop burner flame size should be adjusted so it does not extend
beyond the edge of the cookware.
Use cookware of the appropriate size and construction for the type of cooking. This appliance
is equipped with burners of different sizes. Cookware must be matched to the size of the burner.
Select utensils with flat bottoms large enough to cover the burner flames. The use of undersize
utensils will expose a portion of the burner flames to direct contact and may result in ignition of
clothing. Proper relationships of utensil to burner will also improve efficiency.
Protective liners – Do not use aluminum foil to line grease drip-pans.
Glazed cooking utensils – only certain types of glass, glass/ceramic, ceramic, earthenware, or
other glazed utensils are suitable for cooktop service without breaking due to the sudden change
in temperature.
Utensil handles should be turned inward and not extend over adjacent cooktop burners – To
reduce the risk of burns, ignition of flammable materials, and spillage due to unintentional
contact with the utensil, the handle of a utensil should be positioned so that it is turned inward,
and does not extend over adjacent cooktop burners.
The Governor of California is required to publish a list of substances known to the State of

When the burner has lit, turn the knob to
any setting between HI (high) and SIM
(simmer).
The clicking should stop as soon as the
burner has lit.
If the burner doesn’t light, and/or the
clicking doesn’t stop, or the flames are
not blue and well-defined, turn the
knob clockwise back to OFF and see
‘Troubleshooting’ for advice.
Halo
(Unlit)
4
When you have finished cooking, turn the
knob clockwise back to OFF.
The knob will release and the burner and
halo will go out.
If you are using LP gas, there may be a
slight ‘extinction pop’ or flash at the flame
spreader a few seconds after the burner has
been turned off. This is normal for LP gas.
Guidelines for using the cooktop burners
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 shaded burners, as these have a higher maximum output (17,000 BTU/hr for Natural gas)
than the other burners (12,500 BTU/hr for Natural gas).
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.

For foods where you
want the fat to run
down, such as:
Hamburger patties
Steak
Sausages
Ridged side
To use the grill
1
Remove 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.

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.

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.
1
Remove 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.
2
If you haven’t used the griddle for a long time, re-season it. See section ‘First use - seasoning the
griddle’ for instructions.
3
Turn 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 its knob will glow orange.
See the ‘Griddle cooking chart’ below for suggestions.
When the halo turns red (after about 15 minutes), the griddle is ready to use.
Note: the halo may alternate between red and orange during use as the griddle
maintains the set temperature.
When you have finished using the griddle, turn its knob clockwise back to OFF.
Clean 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.
