Your new DCS Professional appliances have been designed
to be safe, reliable appliances. However, use extreme care
when using these restaurant caliber appliances as they pro-
vide intense heat and can increase the accident potential.
Basic safety precautions must be followed, including the
following:
Read all instructions carefully before using any of these
appliances to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or
injury to persons.
Be sure your appliance/s are properly installed and ground-
ed by a
qualified technician
in accordance with the instal-
lation instructions provided with the unit (s). Have the
technician
show you the location of each individual gas
shut-off valve so that you know how and where to turn off
the gas.
If you smell gas, your installer has not done a proper job of
checking for leaks. Connections can loosen in transit. If
the connections are not perfectly tight, you can have a
small leak and, therefore, a faint gas smell. Finding a gas
leak is not a do-it-yourself procedure. Call the installer to
recheck the installation as some leaks can only be found
with the burner control in the ON position.
These units are factory assembled for natural gas. Any of
them may be converted to propane by a
qualified service
technician or installer.
Do not repair or replace any part of the appliances unless
specifically recommended in this manual. All servicing
should be referred to a qualified technician.
Children should not be left alone or unattended in an area
where appliances are in use. They should never be allowed to
sit or stand on any part of the appliance.
Caution:
Do not store items of interest to children above any of the
units or at the back of them. if children should climb onto an
appliance to reach these items, they could be seriously injured.

als come in contact with or too close to any appliance
while in operation. Fabric may ignite and result in person-
al injury.
For personal safety, wear proper apparel. Loose fitting gar-
ments or hanging sleeves should never be worn while cook-
ing. Some synthetic fabrics are highly flammable and
should not be worn while cooking.
Warning:
These appliances are for cooking. Based on safety consid-
erations, never use them to warm or heat a room.

used to wipe spills on a hot cooking area can result in
steam burns. Some cleaners can produce noxious fumes if
applied to a hot surface. Follow directions provided by the
cleaner manufacturer.
Never use any part of an appliance for storage.
Flam-
mable materials can catch fire and plastic items may ignite
or melt.
