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

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.
To select the specic type of food, press the correct •
number on the number keypad.
The Dacor Guide instructions were tested to give you •
the optimal mode and temperature by food. Press the
HELP key for detailed instructions on how to prepare
the food.
If you are cooking meat or poultry, press the • WEIGHT key and enter the weight of the meat you
are cooking on the number keypad.
If you are using the timer, start it when you place the •
food in the oven.
If the Dacor•
®
Guide instructions read “COOK UNTIL…” or “SET TIMER FOR…” you will need to
check the food for doneness yourself.
If you use the meat probe, the oven will automatically •
stop cooking when the meat has reached the desired
temperature. The oven will then reduce the temperature to a level that will keep the meat warm for up to
2 hours (“HOLD” will appear on the display).
In all other instances, the oven will cook the food •
for the amount of time shown on the Dacor® Guide
display. When the oven is through cooking for the
amount of time indicated, it will beep and reduce the
temperature to a level that will keep the food warm
for up to 2 hours (“HOLD” appears 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.
To turn off your oven during • DACOR GUIDE mode:
○ Double oven: Press UPPER ON/OFF or LOWER
ON/OFF. To turn off both ovens at the same time, press CANCEL/SECURE.
○ Single oven: Press CANCEL/SECURE.

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.

cake, fruit cobblers, quick breads, soufés, 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

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,
mufns, 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.

Saved Guide
The save feature allows you to save the oven settings for

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 •

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

PROOF
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
Proong 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 •

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, mufns, and •
cookies in shiny, reective 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 proles, 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 efciency 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.

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.

Care and Cleaning
Installing your oven’s filter(s):
The metal clips on the back of the lter hook over •
the metal bar across the fan hole. Place the lter at
against the back of oven above the hole with the clips
on the back of the lter pointing down. Be careful
not to push the lter too hard against the back wall
because the clips can scratch the surface. Gently push
the lter straight down over the hole until the clips
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 difcult 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

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

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.
