COOKTOP USE
BURNER GRATES
The burner grates are heavy cast iron. They were designed in sections to make them easier to remove and clean. (See fig. 5 & 6)
COOKWARE
For best results we recommend using professional cookware.This type of utensil can be found at your finer department stores, specialty cooking shops, or restaurant supply stores. If using regular cookware, be very careful if the pans have plastic handles, as these large professional size burners can flame up on the outside of the pan and melt or bubble the handles.
CONTROL KNOBS
The control knobs are readily associated with the burners they control. The cooktop control knobs are labeled and in front of the burners. The oven control is placed slightly lower than the other control knobs. This is due to the physical size of the commercial type thermostats used on the product (see fig. 7).
WOK RING
A Wok ring is provided with your new DCS appliance. The ring is cast iron, and has a porcelain enamel finish. It can be used with the DCS model CW wok and most commercially available woks. To use the ring,place it on the grate over the desired burner. The vertical tabs on the ring should be aligned with the main fingers of the grate. The small protrusions on the bottom surface of the ring should straddle the grate fingers to prevent the ring from rotating during cooking. See fig. 8 page 12. The bottom of the wok should be supported and retained by the vertical tabs of the ring.
For best performance on 30” ranges, the ring and wok should be used on the center burner, as it has the highest output on the top section. On 36” and 48” ranges and cooktops, the ring and wok may be used on any surface burner. To clean the wok ring, place it in the dishwasher after use. Stubborn food deposits may be removed by soaking to loosen the soil, then washing as usual.
