General Safety Precautions
To reduce risk of re, electric shock, serious injury or death when using your appliance, follow basic precautions,
including the following:
WARNING
Only use the oven for cooking tasks expected of a home • appliance as outlined in this manual. If you receive a damaged product, immediately contact • your dealer or builder. Do not install or use a damaged appliance. Do not repair or replace any part of the oven unless • specifically recommended in the literature accompanying this appliance. A qualified service technician should perform all other service. Make sure that the appliance has been properly installed • and grounded by a qualified installer according to the accompanying installation instructions. Have the installer show you where the fuse or junction box is located so that you know where and how to turn off the power. Always make sure food is cooked thoroughly before • eating. Make sure that only those individuals that use the oven • are able to operate it properly. Do not leave children alone or unattended in the area • around the oven. Do not allow children to play with the oven. Children must be taught that the oven is not a toy. Do not allow children to play with the controls or other parts of the oven. Never allow anyone, including children to sit or stand on • any part of the oven. Stepping or sitting on the oven may result in tipping, door breakage, and serious injury. Do not store items of interest to children above the oven. • Children could be burned or injured while climbing on the appliance. Do not wear loose or hanging apparel while using the • oven. Position oven racks in desired locations only when the • oven is cool. If you need to reposition a rack after the oven is already hot, use a pot holder. DO NOT TOUCH INTERIOR SURFACES OF THE OVEN • DURING OR AFTER USE. Do not allow clothing or other flammable materials to contact interior surfaces of the oven until they have had sufficient time to cool. Use only dry pot holders when removing food and • cookware from the oven. Wet pot holders can cause steam burns. Exercise caution when opening the oven door. Let hot air • or steam escape before looking or reaching into the oven. Do not store combustible, flammable, or explosive • materials in the oven or in adjacent cabinets. Do not use water on grease fires. A violent steam • explosion may result. Smother any flames with a lid, cookie sheet, or flat tray. Use baking soda or a foam extinguisher to extinguish flaming grease. Do not use towels or bulky cloth as pot holders.• Use extreme caution if adding water to food in a hot oven. • The steam can cause serious burns or scalds. Do not heat unopened food containers such as baby food • jars and cans. Pressure build up may cause the container to burst and cause injury.
WARNING
To prevent the possibility of burns, connect and unplug the • meat probe using hot pads. To avoid electrical shock or burns, turn off the oven and be • sure that the oven is cool before cleaning. For your safety, do not use the oven to cook without the • convection filter(s) installed. When the filter is not installed, the spinning fan blades at the back of the oven are exposed. Do not leave the oven unattended when cooking with oils • or fats. They can be a fire hazard if overheated. Do not touch the outside surfaces of the oven during the • self-clean cycle. They will be hot. The oven automatically locks the oven door during • self-cleaning. Do not try to force the door open after it is locked. Damage to the door and door latch may result. Before self-cleaning the oven, remove the broiler pan grill • and pan, oven racks, convection filter, meat probe, and any other utensils. Do not line the oven with aluminum foil or other materials. • These items can melt or burn up during self-cleaning and cause permanent damage to the oven. Properly clean and maintain the oven as recommended in • this manual. Clean only those parts listed in this manual.• Use only the cleaning solutions specified in this manual • to clean your oven. Do not use any cleaners that are not specified to clean the inside or outside of the oven. Other cleaning solutions could produce hazardous fumes, cause corrosion of the metal parts, and could permanently damage the finishes. Take extreme caution when cleaning the door gasket. • Rubbing, moving, or in any way damaging the door gasket may eliminate the required tight door seal. Clean only as specified in this manual. Do not allow acids (citrus juices, tomato sauces, etc.) to • remain on the oven surfaces inside or outside the oven. The porcelain finish may stain. Do not use a steam cleaner to clean the oven. Steam • could penetrate electrical components and cause a short circuit. Do not leave metal objects, such as aluminum foil, the • meat probe, cookie sheets, etc. on the floor of the oven. Objects left on the bottom of the oven could trap heat in the bottom, damaging the bake element. In addition, the objects themselves could be damaged. Do not allow the glass panels in the top and bottom of the • oven to become covered up by cookie sheets, aluminum foil, pots, pans, etc. Some of the ovens heating elements are behind the glass panels. Covering them could cause the heating elements behind them to over-heat, damaging the oven. To prevent damage, remove the meat probe from the oven • when it is not being used.

Getting to Know Your Oven
Before Getting Started, Get Familiar With Your Oven
Parts of the Oven:
Control panel: Your oven’s control panel consists of keys and a display. You use the control panel to control all the oven’s features (sometimes called modes).
Oven racks: Your oven comes with three adjustable oven racks. It comes with six if you have a double oven.
Rack supports: There are six sets of rack supports inside each oven cham- ber. They support the adjustable oven racks.
Meat probe connector: When you use the meat probe, insert the skewer into the meat and plug the other end into this connector. See the Meat Probe section on page 25 for proper operation.
Oven lights: There are two oven lights inside the oven chamber so that you can easily see the food inside the oven when the door is open and through the oven window when the door is closed. The lights come on automatically when you open the oven door or you may press the light key on the control panel to keep the lights on. The bulbs are 12 volt, 10 watt, halogen.
Bake elements: Hidden below the glass panel on the oor of the oven
chamber are the bake elements. They are the source of bottom heat. Broil elements: Hidden above the glass panel in the roof of the oven cham-
ber are the broil elements. They are the source of top heat.
Convection fan: The convection fan blows hot air into the oven chamber during the convection cooking process. The convection lter covers it.
Convection element: The convection element creates the hot air that is blown into the oven chamber by the convection fan during the convection
cooking process. The convection lter covers it. Convection lter : The convection lter covers the convection fan. It helps
prevent the transfer of taste from one food to another when you are cook­ing a whole meal. It also keeps the oven cleaner, especially when roasting or broiling. In addition, it covers the moving fan blades for safety purposes.
Self-clean latch: The self-clean latch automatically locks the oven door during the self-clean cycle. The door latches for your safety. There are very high temperatures inside the oven during the self-clean cycle.
Door gasket: The door gasket prevents heat from escaping when the door is closed.

Before You Cook
If you have not used the oven for an extended period of time the display will go to “sleep”. When the display is sleeping, it is not lit. To wake the display (make it reappear), press one of the keys on the control panel or open the oven door.
When you use your oven to bake or roast, it preheats automatically. The preheat cycle rapidly brings the oven chamber up to the proper cooking temperature. It usually takes 7 to 14 minutes to preheat the oven, depending on the temperature settings. Pre-heat times may be longer depending on the type of elec­trical supply in your community. There is no preheat cycle for any of the broil modes.
After you pull food out of the oven, it will continue to cook. This is called carry-over. The larger the portion of food, the longer it will carry-over. It is best to let the meat rest after it comes out of the oven for 10 to 15 minutes before carving. Doing so will allow the meat to retain its juices and make it easier to carve.
Standard Racks
WARNING
Rearrange the oven racks only when the oven is cool.
How to Insert Standard Oven Racks
Insert the end of the rack with the safety notches into • the oven rst.
Attach both sides of the rack to the rack supports in the oven as shown in the diagram below.
Begin to slide the rack in, and then, lift up so that the safety notches clear the ends of the rack supports.
Push the rack all the way in with both hands.
How to Remove Standard Oven Racks
If you want to remove an oven rack, grasp it with both hands and pull gently straight out toward you until it stops.
To remove the rack completely, lift the front of the rack up about six inches and continue to pull out. Lift­ing the rack releases the safety notches. The safety notches prevent the rack from coming out of the oven accidentally.
Glide Racks™
Your oven comes with a Dacor GlideRack. You can pull the GlideRack out further than the standard racks and still support heavy pots and pans full of food. It is great for heavier foods and the baking stone.
WARNING
Rearrange the oven racks only when the oven is cool.
How to Insert Your GlideRack
Hold the GlideRack with the guides fully extended away from you (see diagram below).
Align both sets of safety clips (right and left) on the back of the guides with the oven rack supports as shown in the diagram below.
Begin to slide the rack in, lifting the front safety clips over the front of the oven rack supports.
How to Insert a Standard Oven Rack
How to Insert a GlideRack™
Push the rack all the way to the back. Grasp the rack in the center of the front and pull. The
rack should come forward while the guides remain in place.
How to Remove Your GlideRack
If you want to remove your GlideRack, grasp it with both hands and pull gently straight out toward you until it stops.
To remove the rack completely, lift the front of the rack up about six inches and continue to pull out. Lift­ing the GlideRack releases the safety clips. The safety clips prevent the GlideRack from coming out of the oven accidentally.

Timers
WARNING
The timers on your oven do not turn the oven on or off. They are only for timing purposes. When you want to turn the oven on or off automatically, use the delay options (see page 23)
NOTE: Pressing the CANCEL/SECURE key does NOT turn off the timers.
Your wall oven is equipped with two built-in timers:
The HELP screen appears with a description of how to use the bake mode (setting).
You can use both of them at the same time. They have distinctive alarm tones so that once time
runs out, you can tell which one has beeped. You may want to set each timer for a few seconds and
let time run out so that you can hear the difference between the 2 tones.
To Use the Timers on Your Oven:
Press the TIMER key. The timer screen appears. Press the TIMER 1 or TIMER 2 key. For example,
press TIMER 1.

Dacor Guide: Cook By Food
Your oven is equipped with a great convenience: the Dacor Guide Cooking System. Dacor Guide takes a lot of the guesswork out of cooking. You select the type of food, and the oven will set the temperature and mode and show you the amount of time required to cook it.
How to Use Dacor Guide:
Before you turn on the oven, position the racks. If you have a double oven, press the UPPER ON/OFF
or LOWER ON/OFF key to select the oven you want to use.
Press the DACOR GUIDE key.
Select the category of food you want to cook. For example, MEAT.
If the oven is on when the timer is set, the display will return to the oven mode screen a few moments after the timer is started.
If the oven is not on, press BACK/RECALL to return to the regular cooking display.
If you want to stop a timer before it has beeped, press the TIMER key, then press CANCEL TIMER 1 or CANCEL TIMER 2.
If you select BAKERY or MEAT, the oven will ask you to pick a bakery or meat category. For example, BEEF/VEAL. If you did not select BAKERY or MEAT, go to the next step.

Important Tips for Using Dacor Guide
In some cases the display may instruct you to place the food in the oven and then press START. In other cases the oven will preheat when you press START and instruct you to place the food in the oven when you hear the preheat tone (“WAIT FOR PRE-HEAT TONE”).
If the display instructs you to “INSERT MEAT PROBE”, insert the probe into the meat prior to put­ting the food into the oven. See pages 25 and 26 for complete instructions on how to use the meat probe. NOTE: It is not necessary to use the meat probe, but it is a very convenient, safe feature. Press the PROBE key twice to disable it. “NO PROBE” will appear on the display, which is normal.
The main menu allows you to access your oven’s deluxe features and cooking modes.

Baking Modes
Baking Modes: Description:
BAKE Uses only a heat source from below the food.
This mode is the stand-by, non-convection mode. All baked items will turn out nicely in this mode.

Uses only convection heat. Best for multiple rack items, cakes, tarts, puff pastries, cookies,
free form yeast breads, scones, mufns, and
yeast rolls. This mode is best for light colored and delicate baked goods.
the food. This mode is best for angel-food
cake, fruit cobblers, quick breads, soufés, and
cheesecakes baked in a water bath. Egg-leav­ened items turn out best in this mode because they still get a nice rise without over-brown­ing or curdling. Thick battered breads, such as banana bread, bake well in this mode because they cook through while providing the correct amount of browning.
Uses a combination of convection cooking and a heat source below the food. This mode is best for fruit crisps, custard pies, double­crusted fruit pies, quiches, yeast breads in a loaf pan, and popovers. Also, items baked in a deep ceramic dish or earthenware clay pots are best in this mode. These are items in a deep pan that require browning on the top and bottom.
Uses a combination convection cooking and heat sources above and below the food. This mode is best for bagels, biscuits, and pretzels. These thin items are often in a shallow pan and require dark browning on the top and bottom. This mode will provide the quickest cook time and the darkest overall browning for baked goods.

Cooking Suggestions:
Jump-in temperature: 350°F. Follow original times and temperatures.
Jump-in temperature: 325°F. Lower standard recipes by 25°F. For baking time, use the lowest stated time in the recipe and add more time if necessary. If multiple-rack baking with 3 or more racks, increase time by 5-15 min­utes on average.
Jump-in temperature: 350°F. No temperature or time adjustments are necessary in this mode.

AIR FLOW
About Pure Convection Baking
The uniform air circulation provided by Pure Convec- tion allows you to use the full capacity of your oven. You can successfully prepare food, like cakes, cookies,
mufns, and rolls on 2 or 3 racks at the same time.
You can also prepare complete meals using multiple racks.
Pure Convection - Direction of Airflow
Some recipes, especially those that are homemade, may require adjustment and testing when convert­ing from standard baking to convection baking. If you are unsure how to convert a recipe, begin by prepar­ing the recipe using the standard bake settings. After achieving acceptable results, follow the convection guidelines below. If the food is not cooked to your
satisfaction during this rst convection trial, adjust
one recipe variable at a time (such as cooking time, rack position, or temperature) and repeat the convec­tion test. If necessary, continue adjusting one recipe variable at a time until you get satisfactory results.
As a general rule, to convert conventional standard bake recipes to convection recipes, reduce the tem-
perature by 25˚F and the cook time by approximately
10%.
Baking Tips
Do not open the oven door frequently during baking. Look through the oven door window to check the progress of baking whenever possible.
Use the oven timers to determine baking time. Wait until the shortest recommended baking time
before checking food. For most baked goods, a wooden pick placed in the center should come clean when the food is done.
Problem: May Be Caused By: What To Do:
Cookies burn on the bottom Oven door opened too often Set timer to shortest recommended
cooking time and check food when timer beeps. Use door window to check food

Saved Guide
The save feature allows you to save the oven settings for up 100 of your favorite recipes. Once you save the set­tings, your oven remembers them and can use them to automatically set the temperature, meat probe, and cook­ing time so that you don’t have to look them up.
To save the oven settings for your favorite recipe:

It is normal and necessary for some smoke to be
present to give the food a broiled avor. You can adjust the broil temperature in 5˚F increments from a minimum of 135˚F up to the maximum setting of “HI”. The “HI” setting is the equivalent to 555˚F.
Setting the timer is recommended to time the broiling process.
The cooling fan may continue to run for 30 to 45 min- utes depending upon the length and temperature of the broiling process.
Always use a broiler pan and grill to provide drainage for excess fat and grease. Doing so will reduce spat-
ter, smoke, and are-ups.
Start with a room temperature broiler pan for even cooking.
Use tongs or a spatula to turn and remove meats. Never pierce meat with a fork because the natural juices will escape.
Broil food on the rst side for a little more than half of
the recommended time, then season and turn. Season the second side just before removing the food from the oven.
To prevent sticking, lightly grease the broiler grill. Excess grease will result in heavy smoke. For easier cleaning, remove the broiler pan and grill when the food is removed.
You save the settings after you select the feature you want to use, but just before pressing the START key.
If you want to use the save feature, start by setting up your oven the way you normally would according to the cooking, dehydrate, defrost, and proof sections of this manual.
Before you press the START key, press the SAVE key.
Press CLEAR if you want to remove the letters already on the display.
Use the keys below the display and on the number keypad to enter the name of the recipe. To enter letters, press the key with the letter you want on it repeatedly until that letter appears on the display.

Dehydrate
Dehydration is the process of preserving food by removing water. If you would like to dehy­drate fruits, vegetables, or meats, your oven is equipped with special settings to allow you to
do so easily.
Before you turn on the oven, position the racks at the levels you need them.
Place the food you want to dehydrate into the oven. If you have a double oven, press the UPPER ON/OFF
or LOWER ON/OFF key to select the oven you want to use.
From the main menu, press MORE.
Press DEHYDRATE.
Select the type of food you are dehydrating. For example, press FRUITS. The oven will set itself to the best combination of settings for that type of food.
You will see the jump-in temperature appear on the display (100°F for fruits, 125°F for veggies or 150°F for meats). To dehydrate at that temperature, simply press START. If you want to dehydrate at a different temperature, enter the temperature on the number keypad (for example: to dehydrate at 165°F, press 1, then press 6, then press 5), then press START.
Tips For Dehydrating
Equipment Required for Dehydrating Foods
Half sheet pan or jelly roll pan with ½” rim all the way around it
Baking rack that ts inside the half sheet pan
Cheesecloth Four quart sauce-pot with lid
Steamer basket that ts inside 4 quart saucepan. One
that is perforated and opens up will work well. Slotted spoon Paper towels A sharp knife
Notes for dehydrating fruits:
Place the food onto the center of the oven rack. (For dehydrating, prepare food as recommended then place food onto a drying rack.)
You can add honey, spices, lime juice, or orange juice
to give the fruit a different avor.
To prevent darkening during dehydration and storage, you should steam blanch apples, apricots, peaches, nectarines, pears, or foods that will oxidize. To steam blanch:
Add 1 inch of water to a four quart sauce-pot. Insert
the steam basket and place the fruit in it.
Cover the pot and steam for one to two minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and dab with a
paper towel to remove excess moisture before dehydrating.
Apples, pears, pineapples, and some other fruits will brown or darken during dehydration. To prevent dis­coloration, dip fruits in pineapple juice or lemon juice after steam blanching.
To give the fruit a candied effect and to help retain color, blanch them in simple syrup*. You can candy
the fruits mentioned above as well as gs and plums.
The basic ratio for simple syrup is one cup of sugar
to one cup of water. Add these ingredients to a four quart stock-pot and bring to a boil. Stir until all the sugar dissolves. Remove the saucepan from the stove and allow it to cool. Dip fruit into the simple syrup after it has cooled. Proceed to dehydrate.

Notes for dehydrating fruits (continued):
You should water blanch items with tough skins such • as grapes, prunes, dark plums, cherries, gs, and
some types of berries. Water blanching these types of fruit will crack the skins so that moisture can escape and dehydration can be done more effectively. To water blanch:
Bring 2 quarts of water to boil in 4 quart pot. Drop the fruit in the water for 1 to 2 minutes, or until
the skin begins to crack.
Remove the fruit with a slotted spoon and dab
dry with a paper towel before dehydrating. The pit can be left inside or removed half way through the dehydrating process.
Always wash and remove excess moisture from all fruits and vegetables before dehydrating.
It is best to dehydrate on a baking rack with a pan underneath to catch any juices. If the fruit is small, use cheesecloth over the rack. If you use a rack, it will allow for maximum air circulation around the fruit. The cheesecloth will prevent the fruit from sticking to the rack.
Always cut fruits and vegetables into uniform pieces.
Press PROOF.
You will see the preset temperature of 100°F appear on the display. To proof at that temperature, simply press START. If you want to proof at a different temperature, enter the temperature on the number keypad (for example: to proof at 120°F, press 1, then 2, then 0), then press START.
Proof
Proong is the process of allowing dough to
rise. Your oven’s proof mode is best for yeast breads that require rise time in a warm, draft­free environment. Your oven maintains the ideal temperature for best dough fermentation.
Before you turn on the oven, position the racks at the levels you need them.
After you prepare the yeast dough, place it in a clean bowl, place a damp towel over the top, and put it in the oven.
If you have a double oven, press the UPPER ON/OFF or LOWER ON/OFF key to select the oven you want to use.
From the main menu, press the MORE key.
Leave the dough in the oven for about 1-2 hours (dif- ferent yeasts require different rise times, so follow your original recipe). It should double in size. Some recipes require a second proof after you shape the dough.
Defrost
CAUTION
You run the risk of cooking the food if the defrost temperature is too high. Do not defrost above 120°F.
Things to Keep in Mind
Food that takes an exceptional amount of time to defrost will not defrost well in a con­vection oven.
You should not defrost anything that would nor- mally take over 2 hours to thaw. The food would begin to spoil at the oven’s defrost temperature of 110°F.
If you have a partially defrosted turkey, rib roast, or other large cut of meat, you may continue to defrost it in your convection oven. If wing tips and legs begin to dry out when you defrost poultry, you may wrap the tips with aluminum foil.
If you are defrosting a small cut of meat, lay it on a
at cookie sheet with a one inch rim to catch juices as
the meat thaws.

Thick, frozen casseroles such as lasagna will not defrost well in your oven. Instead, defrost accord­ing to the food manufacturer’s suggestions. You may also defrost casseroles in the refrigerator overnight. You should leave the food in its original container and keep it covered.
You can bake some foods from frozen. Some exam- ples are: pizza, frozen pastries, croissants, cookies, etc. Before baking frozen food, allow the oven to
nish preheating.
How to Use the Defrost Feature
Before you turn on the oven, position the racks. Place the food you want to defrost in an appropriate
size bowl or roasting pan to catch juices and water. You can also place food on an aluminum surface such as a Dacor griddle to speed the process. This mode can also be used for defrosting breads.
Place the food in the oven on rack #3 (counting from the bottom).
If you have a double oven, press the UPPER ON/OFF or LOWER ON/OFF key to select the oven you want to use.
From the main menu, press MORE.
Self-Clean
See Care and Cleaning on Page 28.
Delay/Timed Cooking
If you want to set the oven to automatically turn itself on or off at a later time or day, you can use the delay options feature. The delay options work for all of the various cook modes (except broil) and special features, including Dacor Guide and self-clean. You can set the oven to turn on up to a week later.
Delay/Timed Cooking Options
You can set the delay/timed cooking options to:
Start the oven immediately and turn it off at a certain time of day (stop time).
Start the oven immediately and turn it off after a set amount of time (duration time).
Start the oven at a later time (delay start) and turn it off at a certain time of day (stop time).
Start the oven at a later time (delay start) and turn it off after a set amount of time (duration time).
Start the oven at a later time (delay start) with no turn off time.
For the self-clean feature only: You may only use the delay options feature to set the start time and day for the self-clean feature. You cannot change the stop time or duration of the self-clean cycle. The duration time for self­cleaning is set automatically when you pick light, medium, or heavy cleaning.
Press DEFROST.
You will see the preset (jump-in) temperature of 110°F appear on the display. To defrost at the preset temperature, simply press START. To defrost at a different temperature, enter the temperature on the number keypad (for example: to defrost at 120°F, press 1, then 2, then 0), then press START.
The oven will turn on and the display will indicate the defrosting temperature.
Periodically check the food to see how well it is defrosting.
WARNING
Food safety is an important consideration when using the delay options feature. To avoid potential sickness and the spoiling of food, take the following steps:
Avoid using foods that will spoil while waiting for the oven to start. Typical foods to avoid include: those containing eggs and dairy products, cream soups and cooked or uncooked meats, poultry and fish.
If cooking will not begin immediately, place only very cold or frozen food into the oven. Most unfrozen foods should never stand in the oven for more than two hours before cooking begins.
Do not allow foods to remain in the oven after completion of the hold cycle. The hold cycle automatically starts at the conclusion of timed cooking and keeps food at 150°F for two hours (“HOLD” appears on the screen). When the
temperature drops below 140˚F, bacteria can
develop.

Meat Probe
When you cook foods like roasts and poultry,
the internal temperature is the best way to tell when the food is properly cooked. Your oven’s meat probe takes the guesswork out of roasting. You can use it to cook food to the exact temperature you desire. You can select meat probe settings from 100°F to 200°F.
WARNING
To prevent the possible of burns, connect and unplug the meat probe using hot pads.
IMPORTANT:
Use the handle to insert and remove the meat probe skewer. Also, use the handle on the meat probe plug to insert and disconnect it. Pushing or pulling on either end of the cable could damage the meat probe.

Meat Probe
How to Use Your Meat Probe
Prepare the meat for cooking prior to setting the oven. Insert the skewer of the meat probe into the center of the meat. Make sure that the skewer is not inside any fatty portions of the meat and does not touch any bones. The point should rest in the thick­est part of the meat. When you are cooking fowl, the tip of the skewer should rest toward the center of the bird.
Select one of the roasting modes on page 17. Before pressing START, press the MEAT PROBE key. You will see the preset meat probe temperature of
170°F appear on the display. Consult the Internal Cooking Temperatures Chart to see the recommended meat probe temperatures for a variety of foods. If the correct meat probe temperature already appears on the display, press START. Otherwise, enter the cor­rect meat probe temperature on the number keypad (for example: press 1, then 6, then 0 for 160°F), then press START.
“INSERT MEAT PROBE” will ash on the display when it is time to put the food in the oven and con­nect the meat probe. To keep from getting burned, use an oven mitt to connect the plug on the end of the meat probe to the meat probe connector inside the oven. See page 5 for the location of the connector.
Close the oven door. The oven will automatically cook the meat until it is
done. When the meat is done, the oven will beep and reduce the temperature to a level that will keep it warm and safe for serving for up to 2 hours (“HOLD” will appear on the display). At the end of the hold cycle, the oven will turn off and “CYCLE COMPLETE” will appear on the display. Press CANCEL/SECURE to clear the control panel.
NOTE: If you connect the meat probe before the display
indicates it is time to connect it, the display will ash
“REMOVE MEAT PROBE”.

Food Placement
NOTE: The rack positions mentioned are counting from the bottom up.
Typically, when baking on 2 racks, use rack positions #2 and #4 or #1 and #4. When baking on 3 racks, use rack positions #1, #3 and #5.
When you are cooking a food item that is very heavy, use the Dacor GlideRack. You can pull it out further than a conventional rack, making it easier to check the food, stir, or add ingredients.
Heavier roasting pans and dishes will cook better on rack position #1.
When using a baking stone, use rack position #1 for best results.
If you put a baking stone on the GlideRack, instead of one of the standard oven racks, you can pull the stone out of the oven further, making pizza easier to remove.
The Best Use of Bake Ware
You should bake cakes, quick breads, mufns, and • cookies in shiny, reective pans for light, golden
crusts. Use medium gauge aluminum sheets with low sides
when preparing cookies, biscuits, and cream puffs. Dacor® cookie sheets, with their low proles, will give you the best results.
Bake most frozen foods in their original foil contain- ers, placed at on a cookie sheet. Follow the pack­age recommendations. When using glass bake ware,
reduce the recipe temperature by 25˚F, except when
baking pies or yeast breads. Follow the standard recipe baking time for pies and yeast breads.
Place pans carefully on the oven racks. Turn pans on the racks so that the long sides run left to right, paral­lel to the door.
For roasting, a V shaped rack in a roasting pan works best to allow air circulation around the food. Dacor’s roasting pan works particularly well and 2 of them will
t side by side in a 30 inch oven chamber.
High Altitude Cooking
Due to the lower atmospheric pressure at higher alti­tudes, foods tend to take longer to cook. Therefore, recipe adjustments should be made in some cases. In general, no recipe adjustment is necessary for yeast-risen baked goods, although allowing the dough or batter to rise twice
before the nal pan rising develops a better avor. Try
making the following adjustments for successful recipes. Take note of the changes that work best and mark your recipes accordingly.

Self-Cleaning
WARNING
Do not leave the racks, the meat probe, pots, pans, utensils, or any other items in the oven in during self-cleaning. The convection filter must also be removed. Items left in the oven during self-cleaning may be damaged.
The control panel automatically locks the oven door during self-cleaning. Do not try to force the door open after it is locked. Damage to the door latch may result.
Do not touch the outside surfaces of the oven during the self-clean cycle. They will be hot.
Do not line the oven with aluminum foil or other materials. These items can melt or burn during self-cleaning and cause permanent damage to the oven.
Take extreme caution when cleaning the door gasket. Rubbing, moving or in any way damaging the door gasket may eliminate the required tight door seal. See page 30 for cleaning instructions.
IMPORTANT: Always remove excess grease and soil from the oven interior and door prior to using the self-clean cycle.
About the Self-Clean Cycle
The oven will run better and produce better baked goods if it is clean.
During self-cleaning, the oven is heated to very high temperatures which burns off any deposits on the surfaces of the oven. Self-cleaning eliminates the need for manual scrubbing of interior surfaces. You can set the length of time for self-cleaning based on the amount of soil. The 3 settings are light (2 hours), medium (3 hours), and heavy (4 hours).
If you only use your oven to bake cookies occasion- ally, it may require only a light cleaning. If you use your oven to broil or roast on a frequent basis, it may require heavy cleaning.
It is normal for the oven to emit smoke during the
rst few self-clean cycles.
It is normal for the oven to emit popping sounds during self-cleaning. These sounds are caused by the expansion and contraction of metal surfaces when the oven heats up and cools down.
When you self-clean your oven, it will automatically activate the electric door latch. The latch prevents the oven door from being opened while the interior oven temperatures can easily cause injury.
You may notice a powder ash residue in the bottom of the oven after self-cleaning. This is normal. Sponge the residue up after the oven completely cools.
If you have a double oven, the control panel will only allow one oven chamber to be self-cleaned at a time due to the amount of power consumed. For the same reason, the oven will not allow you to cook in one oven chamber while the other is being self-cleaned.
If you want to stop the self-clean cycle, press the CANCEL/SECURE key. Please keep in mind that the oven door will remain locked until it is safe enough to open. You will still need to exercise caution when the door lock is released because the inside of the oven will still be hot.
How to Use the Self-Cleaning Feature
IMPORTANT: Remove the racks and broiler pan, convec-
tion lter, tray, and all utensils from the oven chamber.
See page 30 for instructions on how to remove and clean
the lter.
Clean soil from the oven front frame area and the oven door outside of the door gasket. You may clean heavily soiled areas with a non-scratching scouring pad.
Rinse all exterior surfaces according the Cleaning the Surfaces of the Oven section on page 30.
Wipe up excess grease and other food spills with a damp cloth. Doing so will minimize smoke and
increase the efciency of the self-clean cycle.
Turn on kitchen fans or vents to help remove odors during the self-clean cycle.
If you have a double oven, use the UPPER ON/OFF and LOWER ON/OFF keys to select the oven to be cleaned. You may only self-clean one oven chamber at a time.

WARNING
To avoid electrical shock or burns, turn off the oven and be sure that it is cool before cleaning.
Use only the cleaning solutions specified in this manual to clean your oven. Do not use ANY cleaners that are not specified to clean the inside or outside of the oven. Use of other cleaners could produce hazardous fumes, cause corrosion of the metal parts, and could permanently damage the finishes.
Take extreme caution when cleaning the door gasket. Rubbing, moving, or in any way damaging the door gasket may eliminate the required tight door seal for self-cleaning.
IMPORTANT: Always wipe stainless steel (silver colored) surfaces with the grain.
NOTE: If you want to avoid accidentally turning the oven on while cleaning the control panel, activate the lock-out feature on your oven. Press the CANCEL/SECURE key for 5 seconds. The lock-out feature will disable the control panel on your oven so that you can clean the keys and display.
When you want to re-activate the control panel on your oven, press the CANCEL/SECURE key for 5 seconds. The word “LOCKED” will disappear from the display.
NOTE: Your oven’s self-clean feature eliminates the need for manual scrubbing of interior surfaces. The steps below are for cleaning surfaces and items that are not covered by the self-clean process. To use the self-clean feature, see page 28.
Door Gasket (Seal)
Cleaning the Convection Filter
The convection lter is located in the back of the oven
chamber. If you have a double oven, it has 2 convection
lters, one in the back of each oven chamber. The con­trol panel will remind you to clean the lter based on the
amount of use the oven receives. You also need to remove
the lter during the self-clean cycle.
Removing your oven’s filter(s):
If your oven has stainless steel surfaces on the out- side, clean them with a solution of mild detergent, and warm water. Rinse and dry with a soft, lint-free cloth.
You may also use Dacor Stainless Steel Cleaner (Part No. A-302) on the stainless steel surfaces. Use it according to the directions on the package.
Clean the door seal by dabbing it with a solution of water and mild soap. Do not scrub it, as it will become damaged.
WARNING
Remove the filter(s) only when the oven is cool. For your safety, re-install the filter(s) before using
the oven to cook. If you don’t, the spinning fan blades at the back of the oven will be exposed.
Put your ngers around the edges of the lter and
gently push up.
Glass and Porcelain Surfaces
When you want to clean the glass and porcelain sur- faces on your oven, use a non-abrasive, sponge with warm, soapy water. Dry the surfaces of your oven completely with a soft, lint-free cloth. You may scrub the oven light lens with the rough side of a sponge and warm, soapy water. Be careful not to scratch the lens.
Glass surfaces may also be cleaned with Dacor Cook Top Cleaning Creme (Part No. A-300). Use it according to the directions on the package.
Removing The Convection Filter
To clean the filter(s):
Soak the lter in hot, soapy water. Rinse well. You
may also place it in a dishwasher on the top rack. Dry
the lter before re-installing it.

catch on the metal bar.
Replacing The Convection Filter
Cleaning the Accessories
IMPORTANT: You must remove all accessories from the oven during the self-clean cycle. If you leave accessories in the oven during self-cleaning, they will permanently discolor and/or become permanently damaged. Racks will
become difcult to slide.
Oven Racks
To clean the oven racks, apply a solution of detergent and hot water. When you need to clean heavy soil, use a scouring pad such as steel wool with plenty of water. You may also use a solution of 1 cup of ammonia to 2 gallons of water.
Meat Probe
IMPORTANT: Do not immerse the meat probe in water. It will become damaged.
The meat probe is constructed of vinyl handles, a wire, a plug, and a stainless steel skewer. To clean the skewer, use a scouring pad and hot, soapy water. When you clean the handles, wipe with soft sponge soaked with a solution of detergent and warm water.
Clearing the “Clean Convection Fan Filter” Message:
NOTE: The “Clean Convection Fan Filter” is a reminder
that you should clean the convection lter(s).
Following the steps below, you may either choose to ignore the message and continue baking, or reset the reminder function. You will have approximately 15 hours of use in this mode before you receive this mes­sage again.
When the “Clean Convection Fan Filter” message appears on the screen, the variable function keys will be labeled OK, RESET UPR, and/ or RESET LWR.
Press OK to clear the screen and continue using oven. Doing so does not clear the warning. Next time the home screen is displayed, the message will reappear. Pressing OK allows you to leave the message as a
reminder if you are not ready to clean the lter, but
still want to cook.
If you clean the lter(s) and/or you want to reset
the message and counter, press the variable function key with the appropriate RESET label. RESET UPR will reset the upper or a single oven, RESET LWR will reset the lower oven on units equipped with two ovens.

Care and Cleaning
Optional Baking Stone
Wash the optional baking stone with hot water and • scrub it clean before you use it for the rst time. Do
not use any soap or detergents to wash the stone. The stone is porous and soap will get trapped inside.
The trapped soap will affect the avor of the food
cooked on it. Don’t be alarmed if the stone gets stains on it after it is used for a while. Stains do not affect the stone’s ability to bake properly.
When you need to remove large food particles from the baking stone, use warm water and a scrub brush. If there is a lot of oil build-up, it may smoke and create odors. If you need to remove the oily build up, use a scouring pad or brush to remove it. You may also use a paste of baking soda and water to scrub small stained spots off.
Replacing the Light Bulbs
WARNING
To prevent electrical shock and/or personal injury, make certain that the oven and light bulb(s) are cool and that power to the oven has been turned off at the circuit breaker panel or fuse box before replacing the light bulb(s).
Always ensure that the lens cover is in place when using the oven. The lens cover protects the bulbs from breakage that can be caused by high temperatures or being bumped.
Replacing the lens cover without lining up the cutout with the light socket will damage the light fixture.
Do not use a screwdriver to remove the lens.
Optional Cookie Sheets
Clean aluminum cookie sheets with a solution of detergent and warm water. Since aluminum can scratch, you need to use the soft side of a sponge. A way for you to keep cookie sheets cleaner is to use parchment paper over the cooking surface during baking. The parchment paper will also prevent food from sticking.
Grasp the old bulb and pull it straight out of the 4. socket.
Using a glove, insert the new bulb into the socket.5.
As you reinstall the lens cover, line up the cutout on 6. the inside rim with the light socket. Gently press it into its original position.
Turn the power to the oven back on at the main power 7. supply. Reset the clock.
Light bulb replacement is considered a homeowner maintenance operation. If the lights do not work, before replacing them, please consult the Before You Call for Service section.
IMPORTANT: Do not touch the replacement halogen light
bulb with your ngers. Halogen bulbs are sensitive to the
oils from your hand. The oils from your hand will stick to the bulb and may cause it to burn out faster than normal.
To Replace the Light Bulb(s):
Replace the bulb 1. only with Dacor Part No. 92317, available from any authorized Dacor parts dealer.
Turn off power to the oven at the circuit breaker panel 2. or fuse box.
Hold your hand under the lens for support and gently 3. pry it loose using a spatula or table knife. Pull the lens cover straight out.
