Setting Up Your Outdoor Grill
Assembling the Cooktop
Grill Compartment Assembly
warning
•Failure to remove the plastic coating and packing materials from the appliance before use will result in a fire hazard.
•To avoid a suffocation hazard, keep all plastic and packing materials out of reach of children.
•To avoid the risk of fire, explosion or carbon monoxide poisoning, do not attempt to use your outdoor grill without the flame spreaders, grates and burners completely and properly assembled.
•For proper operation the outdoor grill must be level during use.
1.Before using the outdoor grill for the first time, remove the plastic coating from all of the outside surfaces of the outdoor grill. Remove any excess glue from the surfaces using Dacor Stainless Steel cleaner (included with your outdoor grill).
2.Open the canopy.
3.Put the flame spreaders over the top of the burners inside the grill compartment. Rest them on the lower shelves toward the front and rear. The lighting holes go toward the bottom. If the outdoor grill is equipped with a sear burner, put one of the larger flame spread- ers over it.
4.Put the grates over the top of the flame spreaders, resting the ends on the upper shelves toward the front and back of the compartment.
5.Make sure the grates and flame spreaders lie flat and that there is nothing beneath them.
6.Mount the warming rack on the pins near the top of the compartment.
7.Insert the drip tray into the slot below the burners. Push it all the way in until it stops.
Optional Side Burner Assembly
1.Place the burner heads over the burner bases. Line up the notches on the side of each burner head with the pins on each burner base.
2.Put the burner caps over the top of the burner heads. The notches on the bottom line up with the pins on the burner base. Gently twist each cap back and forth to make sure it seats completely.
3.Gently set the grate on top of the side burner cook- top. Line up the legs with the corresponding dimples. The side burner cover goes over the top of the grate and helps keep the side burner clean when not in use.
Electrical Requirements
warning
•Connect the power cords for this outdoor cooking gas appliance only to an electrically grounded outlet that meets local codes for outdoor appliances. In the absence of local codes, the electrical outlet must meet National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 or Canadian Electrical Code Standards for outdoor appliances.
•Keep any electrical supply cords and the fuel supply hose away from any heated surfaces and sharp edges. Keep the power cords dry and up off of the ground.
•The outdoor grill and the rotisserie motor are equipped with three prong grounding plugs to mini- mize the possibility of an electric shock hazard from this appliance. Plug them only into a three prong electrical outlet equipped for use with outdoor appli- ances that is protected by a minimum 15 Amp. circuit breaker or fuse.
•Dacor highly recommends installing a dedicated electrical outlet for your outdoor grill according to the requirements above.
Electrical Connection
Electrical Connection for Built-in Installations:
•Connect the power cord from the outdoor grill to an electrical outlet that meets the the above require- ments. An outlet equipped with a ground fault inter- rupter (GFI) is highly recommended whether or not it is required by local code. GFI electrical outlets are designed to minimize the risk of injury due to an elec- tric shock.
Electrical Connection for Dacor Cart Installations:
Dacor OBC series grill carts are designed for a custom fit with OB and OBS series grills. The OBC series grill cart is equipped with a GFI type electrical outlet.
1.Connect the outdoor grill power cord to the electrical outlet located on the back wall at the back of the LP tank compartment.
2.If the cart is equipped with a warming oven, plug it into the same electrical outlet.
3.Pull open the cover on the cart power input plug and connect an extension cord (15 Amp. minimum).
4.Connect the other end of the extension cord to a grounded three prong electrical outlet equipped for use with outdoor appliances that meets the require- ments above.
