Safety Practices - DCS RDS-305 Guide D'utilisation Et D'entretien

SAFETY PRACTICES AND PRECAUTIONS
When properly cared for, your new DCS Appliance has been designed to be a safe, reliable cooking
appliance. When using this restaurant caliber appliance, use it with extreme care, as this type
appliance provides intense heat and can increase the accident potential. Basic safety precautions
must be followed when using kitchen appliances, including the following:
Read this Use and Care Manual thoroughly before using your new appliance. This will help to
reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons.
Begin by insuring proper installation and servicing. Follow the installation instructions which came
with this appliance. Be sure to have a qualified technician install and ground this appliance before
using.
Have the installer show you where the gas supply shutoff valve is located so you will know how and
where to turn off the gas to the appliance.
If you smell gas, the installer has not done a proper job of checking for leaks. You can have a small
leak and therefore a faint gas smell if the connections are not completely tight. Finding a gas leak
is not a "do-it-yourself" procedure. Some leaks can only be found with the burner control in the ON
position and for your protection it must be done by a qualified service technician.
If by some chance a burner goes out and gas escapes, open a window or a door to let the room air
out. Do not attempt to use the appliance until the gas has had time to dissipate. Follow the
instructions on page 1,"For your safety – if you smell gas" .
This appliance has been factory assembled for natural or LP gas. It should be correctly adjusted
from the factory for the type of gas that is used.
Do not repair or replace any part of this appliance unless it is specifically recommended in this
manual. All other 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 turn knobs, push buttons, sit or stand on any part of an appliance.
Children in walkers, or children crawling can be attracted to the round oven door handle and may
grab and open the oven door. This can result in injury from the door being pulled open on a child,
or severe burns if the oven is in use and hot.
CAUTION:
Do not store items of interest to children above or at the back of any appliance.
Children could be seriously injured if they should climb onto the appliance to
reach these items.
Never store anything in the oven or on the cooktop. Flammable materials can catch fire, plastic
items may melt or ignite and other types of items could be ruined.
Do not hang articles from any part of the appliance or place anything against the oven. Some
fabrics are quite flammable and may catch on fire.
If the appliance is near a window be certain the curtains do not blow over or near the cooktop
burners; they could catch on fire.
Do not use water on grease fires. Turn all burners OFF, then smother fire with baking soda or use a
dry chemical or foam-type fire extinguisher.
Never let clothing, pot holders, or other flammable materials come in contact with, or too close to,
any burner or burner grate until it has cooled. Fabric may ignite and result in personal injury.
