curtains could blow over the cooktop and create a fire hazard.

• When deep fat frying:

• Be certain that the pan is large enough to contain the desired volume of food without

overflow caused by the bubbling of the fat. Never leave a deep fat fryer unattended.

• Avoid frying moist or frost-covered foods. Foods with high water content may cause spattering or

spilling of the hot fat.

• Heat fat slowly, and stir together any combination of oils and fats prior to applying

heat. Utilize a deep fat frying thermometer to avoid heating the fat to temperatures above the flash point.

• DO NOT TOUCH THE SURFACES OF THE OVEN OR COOKTOP DURING OR IMMEDIATELY AFTER USE.

• Do not store items of interest to children on top of or above the range. Children could be burned or injured while climbing on the appliance.

WARNING

• Use cookware only for its intended purpose. Check the manufacturer's recommendations before use

to determine if a utensil is suitable for use on a cooktop or in an oven. Certain types of glass,

ceramic and earthenware are not suitab e for use on a cooktop. Personal injury or damage may result

from the improper use of cookware.

• Select cookware carefully. Use utensils of the proper size, material and construction for the particular type of cooking being done. Utensils need

to be large enough to contain the desired quantity of food without boil-overs or spill-overs. Choose

pans with easy to hold handles that will stay cool while cooking. Do not use utensils with loose handles. Avoid using pans that are too heavy to lift

safely.

• Before using glazed cookware, such as glass, ceramic or earthenware, check the manufacturer's

temperature and usage recommendations.

• Glazed cookware that is not designed for high heat use may crack or break, causing a spill or burn

hazard.

• Exercise caution when opening the oven door. Let hot air or steam escape before looking or reaching

into the oven.

• Use extreme caution if adding water to food on a hot cooktop or in the oven. The steam can cause serious burns or scalds.

• Use only dry pot holders when removing food and cookware from the cooktop or oven. Wet pot

holders can cause steam burns.

• Make sure that all the cooktop parts are dry before lighting a burner.

• Do not heat eggs or unopened food containers such as baby food jars and cans. Pressure build up may cause them to burst and cause injury.

• For your safety, do not use the oven to cook without the convection filter installed. When the

filter is not installed, the spinning fan blades at the

back of the oven are exposed.

• Do not leave children alone or unattended in the area around the range. Do not allow children to

play with the controls, pull on the handle or touch other parts of the range.

• Make sure ndividuals who use the range are able to operate it properly.

• Clean the range thoroughly before operating it for the first time.

Clean and maintain the range regu arly as instructed in this manual. Keep the entire range, ventilation filters and range hoods free of grease

that could catch fire.

• Do not allow food to sit in the oven for more than one hour before or after cooking. Eating spoiled food can result in food poisoning.

• Non-stick coatings, when heated, can be harmful to birds. Remove birds to a separate, well-ventilated room during cooking.

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY TO PERSONS IN THE

EVENT OF A RANGE TOP GREASE FIRE:

a. SMOTHER FLAMES with a close-fitting lid, cookie

sheet or metal tray, then turn off the burner. BE CAREFUL TO PREVENT BURNS. If the flames do not

go out immediately, EVACUATE AND CALL THE FIRE

DEPARTMENT.

b. NEVER PICK UP A FLAMING PAN - you may be

burned.

c. DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dish cloths or

towels - a violent steam explosion may -esult.

d. Use a fire extinguisher ONLY if:

You have a Class ABC extinguisher, and you already know how to operate it.

• The fire is small and contained in the area where it started.

• The fire department is being called.

• You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.

CAUTION

• Do not allow acids (citrus juices, tomato sauces, etc.) to remain on the range's surfaces. The

finishes may stain.

• Never use the cooktop surface as a cutting board.

• Do not try to remove heavy spills with a sharp object such as a knife or metal spatula. Sharp objects may scratch the range's surfaces.

• 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.

• Do not leave oven racks, the convection filter, the

meat probe or any other items in the oven during

self cleaning. Damage to the items or the oven

itself will occur.

• Do not leave objects, such as aluminum foil, the

meat probe, cookie sheets, etc. on the bottom of

the oven. Objects left on the bottom of the oven

may cause damage.

• Do not allow the the broil element on the oven ceiling to become covered up by cookie sheets,

aluminum foil, pots, pans, etc. Covering them could cause the heating elements to over-heat, damaging

the oven.

• Do not expose the knobs or trim rings to direct flame, hot utensils or other sources of heat.

• Always ensure that the light fixture lens cover is in

place when using the oven. The lens cover protects the light bulb from breakage caused by high oven temperatures or mechanical shock.

WARNING

For overall safety and best cooktop performance, select the correct cooking utensil for the food being cooked. Improperly selected cooking utensils will not cook evenly or efficiently.

Use cookware that:

• Has flat, smooth bottoms.

• Is well balanced.

• Has tight fitting lids to keep heat, odors and steam in.

Each burner control knob has a small diagram _ O next to it with an indicator light that tells you

which burner it operates. O O

1. To light a burner, push in gently on the knob and turn it counter-clockwise to the HIGH position. The igniter

will spark (click) repeatedly until the gas ignites. The

burner should light within four seconds.

2. Once the burner is lit, set the flame height to the

desired level by rotating the control knob further counterclockwise, then place the utensil on the grate.

Burner knob symbols

OFF HIGH LOW

IMPORTANT

For superior cooking performance and to save energy:

• Reduce the flame height to the minimum level neces- sary to perform the desired cooking process. Food

cooks just as quickly at a gentle boil as it does at a

vigorous, rolling boil. A higher boil than is necessary

wastes energy, cooks away moisture and causes a loss in food flavor and nutrients.

• Dacor's SimmerSear burner allows you greater preci- sion control of the flame.

• Use low or medium flame heights when cooking in utensils made of materials that are poor conductors of heat, such as glass, ceramic and cast iron. Reduce the

flame height until it covers approximately 1/3 of the

utensil diameter to ensure even heating and reduce scorching.

• Minimize the amount of liquid or fat to reduce cooking

times.

• Use a timer rather than repeatedly removing the lid to check food, Doing so will decrease cooking time and save energy,

• Thaw foods prior to cooking to reduce cooking time,

Setting the Time

1. Press the CLOCK key. The colon between the minutes and seconds on the time display will begin to flash.

2. Enter the current time on the number keypad before the colon stops flashing. For example: For 12:08, press 1-2-0-8 on the keypad. Press the # key to change the AM-PM indicator.

3. Press START.

IMPORTANT

24/12 Hour Clock (Military Time)

The oven is set to 12-hour (non-military) time at the factory. 24 hour time is also known as military time.

1:36 plY1= 13:36 military time.

If you want to switch the clock to 24 hour time or switch from military back to regular time:

1. Press and hold the CLOCK key for six seconds. The display will indicate the mode the clock is currently set to, :L2 Hr or 24 Hr.

2. Press the # key to change the clock mode. To leave the setting as is, do not touch any keys.

3. Press CANCEL. SECURE to return to the main display. If you have set the clock to 24 hour time, the keypad will allow you to enter military time when setting the

clock.

Setting the Temperature Scale

You can select the temperature scale (Fahrenheit or Celsius) the oven uses to display the cooking temperature. The oven is preset at the factory to Fahren-

heit.

To change the temperature scale:

1. Press and hold the BROIL key.

2. The display will indicate the temperature scale the control panel is currently set to, "F" or "C".

3. Press the # key to change the temperature scale. To

leave the setting as is, do not touch any keys.

4. Press CANCEL.SECURE. The control panel will go back to the regular clock display, set to the new tem- perature scale.

Dacor recommends turning the oven on for one hour

at 500°F to burn off any residual oils used during the

manufacturing process. Any of these oils left on the inner parts can cause an undesirable smell the first

few times the oven is used.

• 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 takes several minutes to preheat the oven. Preheat

time depends on the temperature settings. The time

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 process is called "carry-over." The larger

the portion of food, the longer it will cook. 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 natural juices and make it easier to

ca rve.

Oven Racks

You may use either rack type on any level.

To insert the standard oven racks:

1. Insert the end of the rack with the safety notches into the oven first.

2. Attach both sides of the rack to the rack supports in the oven as shown in the diagram below.

3. Begin to slide the rack in, and then, lift up so that the

safety notches clear the ends of the rack supports.

4. Push the rack all the way in with both hands.

To remove the standard oven racks:

Grasp the rack 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 it out. Lifting the rack releases the safety notches. The

safety notches reduce the chances of a rack coming out of the oven accidentally.

To insert the optional GlideRack'" oven rack:

You can pull the optional GlideRack oven rack out further than the included standard racks and still support heavy

pots and pans full of food. It is great for heavier foods and

the optional Dacor baking stone.

1. Hold the rack with the guides fully extended away from you (see the diagram below).

2. Align both sets of safety clips (right and left) on the

back of the guides with the oven rack supports as shown.

3. Begin to slide the rack in, lifting the front safety clips

over the front of the oven rack supports.

4. Push the rack all the way to the back.

5. Grasp the rack in the center of the front and pull. The

rack should come forward while the guides remain in place.

To remove the optional GlideRack oven rack:

1. Grasp it with both hands and pull gently straight out toward you until it stops.

2. To remove the rack completely, lift the front up about

six inches and continue to pull it out. Lifting it releases the safety clips. The safety clips reduce the chance of the rack coming out of the oven accidentally.

Understanding the Various Oven

The three basic styles of cooking in an oven:

• BAKING - The gentle cooking of dry goods such as cookies, cakes, souffles, etc.

• ROASTING - The cooking of meats or vegetables over a period of time.

• BROILING - Cooking with an intense heat for a short amount of time.

Bake €,_,_,c,

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.

Baking Tips

• For best results, use a single rack in the lowest posi-

• Follow your recipe's original cooking time and tem-

• Do not open the oven door frequently during baking.

• Use the timers to determine baking time.

• Wait until the shortest recommended baking time

tion when using bake mode. For cooking on multiple

racks, Dacor recommends using one of the convection modes. See the following pages.

Understanding the Various Oven

Your range offers three convection cooking

modes:

• Pure Convection

• Convection Bake

• Convection Roast

As a general rule, in the convection modes time is about 25% shorter. Set the timer 15 minutes before the shortest

stated time and add more time if necessary.

For Pure Convection and Convection Bake Modes:

Some recipes, especially those that are homemade, may require adjustment and testing when converting from

standard 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 in the Dacor Cooking

Guide. If the food is not cooked to your satisfaction during this first 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 satis-

factory results.

Multiple Rack Baking in Pure Convection Mode

• Typically, when baking on two racks, use rack posi- tions #1 and #3 or #2 and #4 (counting from the

bottom up) for best results. When cooking a full meal, use rack positions #1, #3 and #5 for best results.

• When adapting a single rack recipe to multiple rack

baking, it may be necessary to add to the baking time

due to the extra bulk of the food in the oven.

@@ @@

Pure Convection _

The uniform air circulation provided by Pure Convection allows you to use more oven capacity at once, Use this mode for single rack baking, multiple rack baking, roast-

ing, and preparation of complete meals, Many foods, such as pizzas, cakes, cookies, biscuits, muffins, rolls and frozen convenience foods can be successfully prepared on two or three racks at a time, Pure Convection is also good for whole roasted duck, lamb shoulder and short leg of

lamb,

AIR FLOW

Convection Bake _' €,_,/._

Use this mode for single rack baking. The combination of

the convection fan and bottom heat source is best for fruit crisps, custard pies, double-crusted 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. Most of these items cook in a deep pan

and require browning on the top and bottom.

Convection Roast

Your range's convection roast mode uses a combination of the convection fan and heat sources above and below the

food. It is best for rib roasts, turkeys, chickens, etc.

Roasting Tips

• All baking modes can be used to successfully roast in your oven. However, the convection roast mode is

recommended to produce meats that are deliciously seared on the outside and succulently juicy on the inside in record time. Foods that are exceptional, when prepared in the convection roast mode, include: beef, pork, ham, lamb, turkey, chicken and cornish

hens.

Always roast meats fat side up in a shallow pan, using

a roasting rack. Always use a pan that fits the size of

the food being prepared. No basting is required when the fat side is up. Do not add water to the pan. It will

cause a steamed effect. Roasting is a dry heat pro- cess.

• Poultry should be placed breast side up on a rack in a shallow pan that fits the size of the food. Brush poul-

try with melted butter, margarine or oil before and

during roasting.

• When using the roast mode, do not use pans with tall sides. They interfere with the circulation of heated air

over the food.

• If using a meat thermometer, insert the probe halfway into the center of the thickest portion of the meat. For

poultry, insert the thermometer probe between the body and leg into the thickest part of the inner thigh.

To ensure an accurate reading, the tip of the probe

should not touch bone, fat or gristle. Check the meat

temperature 2/3 of the way through the recommended

roasting time. After reading the meat thermometer once, insert it 1/2 inch further into the meat, then take a second reading. If the second temperature registers below the first, continue cooking the meat.

• Remove meats from the oven when the thermometer registers 5 to 10°F below the desired temperature.

The meat will continue to carry-over.

• Allow roasts to stand 15 to 20 minutes after roasting in order to make carving easier.

• Roasting times always vary according to the size, shape and quality of meats and poultry. Less tender cuts of meat are best prepared in bake and may

require moist cooking techniques. Follow your favorite cookbook recipes.

• Reduce spatter by lining the bottom of the roasting pan with lightly crushed aluminum foil.

Your range offers two broil modes:

• Broil

• Convection Broil Broiling is a quick and flavorful way to prepare many

foods, including steaks, chicken, chops, hamburgers and fish.

WARNING

Broil SSS

This mode uses a top heat source. [t is best for broiling

smaller amounts of food.

Convection Broil

This mode uses a combination of the convection fan and

a top heat source. It is best for items that do not need to be flipped such as, thinner cuts of meat, fish and garlic bread.

Broiling Tips

• It is normal and necessary for some smoke to be present to give the food a broiled flavor.

• Setting the timer is recommended to time 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 flare-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 first 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.

Timer

{_ WARNING

• Your range is equipped with 2 built-in timers

To stop a timer before time runs out:

• Press the TIMER 1 or TIMER 2 key twice.

• The timer willstop and the display willclear.

• Press the CLOCK key to return to the main display.

If you want to set the oven to automatically turn itself on

or off at a later time, you can use the delay timed fea- tures.

Things to Know About Delay Timed Cooking

• The delay timed options work for all of the various cook modes, except broil and convection broil.

• You may use the timers while using the delay timed features. The timers do not have an effect on any of

the delay timed cooking options.

• The delay timed cycle can be canceled at any time by

pushing CANCEL, SECURE.

The three delay timed cooking keys are:

• START TIME: The time the oven starts cooking.

• DURATION: The amount of time the oven cooks

before it goes into hold mode (see facing page for

description).

• STOP TIME: The clock time the oven turns off and goes into hold mode.

When you set 2 of the 3 above, the oven automatically calculates the third.

Ways to Use Delayed Timed Cooking

• Set the time the oven turns on (START TIME) and set it to turn off at a later time using either the

DURATION key or the STOP TIME key.

• Set the START TIME only, then turn the oven off

manually when you are done cooking.

• Turn the oven on manually and set it to turn off at a later time using either the DURATION key or the

STOP TIME key.

1. Adjust the racks to the appropriate level.

2. Put the food in the oven.

3. Press the key for the desired cooking mode (except broil or convection broil).

4. Enter the desired cooking temperature on the number keypad.

5. If you want to turn the oven on immediately and turn off automatically at a later time, skip to step 8.

6. Press the START TIME key.

7. Enter the time you want the oven to start on the keypad. For 12:35, press 1-2-3-5. You may enter a time up to 22 hours and 59 minutes ahead of the

present time. Press the # key to change "AM" or

"PM ."

8. If you want to set the stop time or cooking dura-

tion, press either the STOP TIME or DURATION key

(otherwise skip to step 9.) Using the DURATION key allows you to determine when the oven will stop cook- ing by entering the amount of time the oven is on. Using the STOP TIME key allows you to determine

when the oven will stop cooking by entering the clock

time. Using either key achieves the same result,

9. Press START.

10. If you entered a START TIME, the oven will start at

the start time entered.

ii. Ifyou entered a DURATION or STOP TIME the oven

willcook untilthe time entered and then, go intohold mode.

Other Things to Know About Delayed Timed

Cooking

When the oven is in delay timed mode:

• Push the CLOCK key to view the clock (current time).

• Push the START TIME key to view the current start time setting.

• Push the STOP TIME key to view the current cook time setting.

• Push the DURATION key to view the current cook time setting.

IMPORTANT

About Hold Mode

• When you set the oven to stop cooking using the DURATION or STOP TIME keys, it will go into hold

mode ("NLd" appears on the display) when it reaches

the end of the cook time you have set. The oven will

keep the temperature at 150°F for two hours.

• Press CANCEL, SECURE to turn the oven all the way off.

• To prevent sickness, do not allow foods to remain in

the oven after it is off (after hold mode turns off.)

When you cook foods like roasts and poultry, the internal temperature is the best way to tell when the food is prop- erly cooked. Your oven's meat probe is an easy way to take the guesswork out of roasting. You can use it to cook

food to the exact temperature you desire. The probe can be set from IO0°F to 200°E

Skewer

Plug

WARNING

4. Allow the oven to preheat. Excessive browning may occur if the meat is placed in the oven during preheat

mode (when "PRE-" appears on the display).

5. Once the oven has preheated ("PRE-" disappears), put the meat in the oven using pot holders. Insert the meat probe plug into the connector inside the oven.

6. Push the PROBE key. The preset probe tem- perature (160°F), as well as the probe symbol,

will appear on the display. If you want to cook

using a different probe temperature, enter it

on the keypad. Use the USDA Minimum Safe Cook- ing Temperature Chart on the facing page as a guideline for the type of meat you are cooking.

7. Press START. If you do not press START, the probe mode will not start.

When the meat probe is in use, the oven will automati- cally control the cooking time. The temperature on the display during cooking is the temperature measured inside

the meat. The oven will continue to cook until the meat temperature reaches the temperature you have entered.

When the meat is done, the oven will go into hold mode. The temperature will reduce to 150°F for two hours to

keep the meat warm and safe for serving. To prevent sick- ness, do not allow foods to remain in the oven after it has

turned off. Press CANCEL. SECURE to cancel hold mode and turn the oven completely off.

NOTE

Meat Probe Instructions

Prepare the meat for cooking prior to setting the oven. Insert the meat probe skewer 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.

Before placing the meat in the oven and with the door closed, push the BAKE, CONV BAKE, PURE CONV

or CONV ROAST key. The preset temperature will appear on the display. If you want to cook using a different oven temperature, enter it on the number

keypad.

3. Press START.

To change the meat probe temperature during cooking:

1. Press PROBE. The current probe temperature setting will appear on the display.

2. Enter the new temperature. The oven will automati- cally change to the new probe temperature. If you do not enter a temperature, the oven will continue to cook at the current setting.

To change the cooking mode during meat probe cooking:

1. Press the CANCEL. SECURE key.

2. Press the BAKE, CONV BAKE, PURE CONV or CONV

ROAST key. If you want to cook using a temperature different than the oven's preset temperature, enter it on the number keypad.

3. Press START.

To cancel meat probe operation while the oven is cooking:

Press the PROBE key twice. Disconnect the meat probe

from the connector and remove it from the oven. The oven will return to any previous settings that were

entered before the PROBE key was pressed.

Important Details About Meat Probe Use

• You must select the specific cooking mode (BAKE, CONV BAKE, PURE CONV or CONV ROAST) before you press the PROBE key.

• When you press the PROBE key the preheat cycle is disabled and the amount of time required to heat the oven is extended. For best results, select the cooking mode and allow the oven to preheat prior to pressing

the PROBE key and putting the meat in the oven.

• The meat probe function will automatically cancel after 30 seconds if the meat probe is not connected.

The meat probe symbol will flash on the display.

• The meat probe feature takes precedence over the delay timed cooking feature. The oven will continue

to cook the meat until it reaches the selected meat

probe temperature regardless of the STOP TTME or DURATION setting, then go into hold mode.

GROUND MEAT AND MEAT MIXTURES

Your range can be used to dehydrate or defrost foods at

low heat settings in the Pure Convection mode.

To dehydrate or defrost foods:

1. Adjust the racks to the appropriate level.

2. Place the food on the center of the oven rack. If you are dehydrating, prepare food as recommended, then place it on a drying rack.

3. Press the PURE CONV key.

4. To defrost meats, enter the temperature, up to 150°F, on the number keypad. To dehydrate, start with the

Dehydrating Tips

Equipment Recommended

• Half sheet pan or jelly roll pan with 1/2" rim all the way around

• Baking rack that fits inside the half sheet pan

• Cheesecloth

• 4 quart sauce pot with lid

• Steamer basket that fits inside 4 quart saucepan. One

that is perforated and opens up will work well.

• Slotted spoon

• Paper towels

• A sharp knife

When you dehydrate:

i. Wash and remove excess moisture from all fruits and

vegetables before dehydrating.

2. Cut fruits and vegetables into uniform pieces.

3. You can add honey, spices, lime juice or orange juice

to give the fruit a different flavor.

4. It is best to dehydrate on a baking rack with a pan underneath to catch any juices. If using a rack when dehydrating small fruit, put cheesecloth over the rack

to allow for maximum air circulation and to prevent the fruit from sticking to the rack.

5. Place the food onto the center of the oven rack. Continued...

Solving Discoloration Problems

To prevent darkening during dehydration and storage, you should steam blanch apples, apricots, peaches, nectar- ines, pears or foods that will oxidize.

To steam blanch:

1. Add one inch of water to a four quart sauce pot. Insert the steam basket and place the fruit in it.

2. Cover the pot and steam for one to two minutes.

3. Remove with a slotted spoon and dab with a paper towel to remove excess moisture before dehydrating.

4. Apples, pears, pineapples, and some other fruits will brown or darken during dehydration. To prevent dis- coloration, dip fruits in pineapple juice or lemon juice after steam blanching.

Creating a Candied Effect

To give fruit a candied effect and to help retain color, blanch them in a simple syrup. You can candy the fruits mentioned above as well as figs and plums. The basic

ratio for a 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 cooktop and allow it to cool. Dip fruit into the simple syrup after it has cooled.

Preventing Tough Skins When Dehydrating

You should water blanch items with tough skins such as grapes, prunes, dark plums, cherries, figs 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:

1. Bring two quarts of water to boil in a four quart sauce pot.

2. Drop the fruit in the water for one to two minutes, or until the skin begins to crack.

3. 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 dehydrat-

ing process.

• Thick, frozen casseroles such as lasagna will not defrost well in your oven. Instead, defrost accord-

ing 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

preheat.

You can use your range to proof yeasted doughs at a low and draft-free temperature using the bake mode.

1. Press the BAKE key.

2. Enter the temperature of 100°F on the number

keypad.

3. Press START.

4. Place the dough in a greased bowl inside of the oven. Cover it with either a damp cloth or plastic wrap coated with a nonstick spray.

5. Turn on the oven light.

6. Set the timer for the amount of rise time in the recipe.

Sabbath Mode

The Sabbath mode on your oven complies with Jewish

laws for use on the Sabbath and Holy Days. This feature allows the oven to perform two types of cooking, bake and Pure Convection.

When the oven is set to Sabbath mode, it disables the fol-

lowing features:

• The oven light

• All keys, except CANCEL. SECURE, START and the 0 and 2 keys on the number keypad.

NOTE

Defrosting Tips

• 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 normally take over two hours to thaw. The food will begin to spoil because the defrost temperature is not high

enough to cook the food.

• 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 flat cookie sheet with a one inch rim to catch juices as

the meat thaws.

Setting Up the Sabbath Feature

1. Press the # key.

2. Press the BAKE or PURE CONV key.

3. Press the 0 or 2 keys repeatedly if you want to change the pre-selected cooking temperature shown

on the display.

4. Press (only) the START key. The oven will go into Sabbath mode and cook using the mode selected in

step 2.

Things to Know About Sabbath Mode

• The CANCEL. SECURE key on your oven remains active so that you can turn off the Sabbath feature or

turn off the oven.

When the oven is cooking, pressing the 2 key on the number keypad, then START, tells the oven to raise

the temperature by 25°F (15°C). Pressing the 0 key

on the number keypad, then START, tells the oven

to lower the temperature by 25°F (15°C). In compli-

ance with Jewish law, the heating element will be adjusted randomly when these keys are pressed and

no changes will be seen on the display.

Please visit www.star-k.org for further information about Sabbath compliance and usage of this product.

Your oven is equipped with a feature that allows you to

calibrate the temperature inside the oven to match the display value without the help of a service technician. Due

to various conditions, the actual temperature inside may vary somewhat from the displayed temperature. The set-

ting may also vary from mode to mode.

change the offset temperature:

Place an oven thermometer inside the oven.

Check the temperature variance by running the oven

for one hour in each mode at 350°F (except broil

modes). In broil the normal operating temperature is 555°F. Take note of the temperature variance in each

mode.

3. With the oven off, press and hold the 0 and # keys on the number keypad at the same time. After about

three seconds "PAS" will appear on the display.

4. Immediately enter 6428 on the number keypad, then START. "SLCt" (select) will appear on the display.

5. Press the key for the cooking mode you want to change the offset for (CONV BAKE, CONV BROIL,

PURE CONV, CONV ROAST, BAKE or BROIL).

6. Enter an offset temperature value from 1 to 35°F (1

to 18 for ovens set to Celsius). Press the # key after

entering the numeric value if you want the offset to be a negative (-) value. Press # again to toggle the (-) setting off. "Edit" appears on the display when you

start to enter the offset value.

7. Press START to save the setting.

8. Repeat steps 5 and 6 above for any other cooking modes you need to offset.

9. Press CANCEL. SECURE to exit offset mode.

Food Placement

NOTE: The rack positions mentioned below are counting

from the bottom up,

• For best results when baking on two racks, use rack positions #2 and #4 or #1 and #3 with the oven set

to Pure Convection or convection bake mode, For best results when baking on three racks, use rack positions

#1, #3 and #5 with the oven set to Pure Convection

mode, Turn pans on the racks so that the long sides run left

to right, as you face them, When you are cooking a food item that is very heavy,

Dacor recommends the optional GlideRack oven

rack, You can pull it out further than a standard rack, making it easier to check the food, stir or add ingredi-

ents,

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 optional GlideRack oven rack, instead of one of the standard oven racks, you can pull the stone out of the oven

further, making pizza easier to remove,

Use the pan size and type recommended by the recipe

for best results,

For roasting, Dacor's optional "V" shaped rack and broil/roast pan works best to allow air circulation

around the food, Dacor's roasting pan works particu-

larly well and two of them will fit side by side in a 30-inch oven, The kit also comes with a grill that fits

inside the pan to cook flat cuts of meat,

Oven Rack Positions

The Best Use of Bake Ware

• You should bake cakes, quick breads, muffins and cookies in shiny, reflective pans for light, golden crusts, Avoid old, darkened, warped, dented, stainless steel and tin-coated pans, They heat unevenly and will not give good baking results,

• Use medium gauge aluminum sheets with low sides when preparing cookies, biscuits and cream puffs,

Dacor cookie sheets, with their low profiles, will give

you the best results,

• Bake most frozen foods in their original foil contain- ers, placed flat on a cookie sheet, Follow the pack- age 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,

Due to the lower atmospheric pressure at higher alti- tudes, 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 final pan rising develops a better flavor, Try

making the adjustments below for successful recipes, Take

note of the changes that work best and mark your reci-

pes accordingly, You may also consult a cookbook on high altitude cooking for specific recommendations,

Your Oven's Self Clean Feature

About the Self Clean Cycle

• The oven will run better and produce better baked goods when it is clean. During self cleaning, the oven is heated to very high temperatures which burn off

any deposits on the surfaces of the oven. Self cleaning eliminates the need for manual scrubbing of interior surfaces. The self clean process takes about three

hours. Tt is normal for the oven to emit smoke during the

first few self clean cycles. Tt is also normal for the

oven to emit popping sounds during self cleaning.

These sounds are caused by the expansion and con- traction of metal surfaces when the oven heats up and

cools down.

• The self clean process takes about three hours.

• Self clean mode will not function if the meat probe is connected.

WARNING

How to Use the Self Cleaning Feature

1. Before self cleaning the oven, remove the racks, the convection filter, all cookware (pots, pans, forks, etc.),

the meat probe, foil and any other loose objects from the oven chamber. See page 27 for instructions on

how to remove and clean the filter.

2. Clean soil from the porcelain surfaces of the door outside of the door gasket. Rinse surfaces well with

a solution of vinegar and water, then wipe dry. Heav- ily soiled areas may be cleaned with a non-scratching scouring pad.

3. Clean the door gasket by dabbing it with a solution of water and mild soap.

WARNING

4. Turn on kitchen fans or vents to help remove odors during the self clean cycle.

5. Make sure the oven door is shut.

6. Press the SELF CLEAN key, then press START.

The control panel automatically locks the oven door

during self cleaning. The latch prevents the door from being opened since the high interior oven temperatures can easily cause injury. Tf the door is not shut, an error message will appear on the display. To correct the prob- lem, press CANCEL. SECURE and wait approximately one

minute, then close the door. When the door is properly closed, start the self clean process again.

The display shows the self clean cycle status:

• The clean symbol indicates that self clean is in _le_ process.

• The lock symbol indicates that the door is latched.

• "ON" indicates that the heating elements are on.

Tf you want to stop the self clean cycle, press the CANCEL

•SECURE key. The oven door will remain locked until it is

safe enough to open. The lock symbol will disappear from

the display when the door lock is released. You will still

need to exercise caution when the door lock is released because the inside of the oven may still be hot.

After the self clean cycle is complete:

• The door latch will release when the inside has cooled down. The clean icon, lock icon and "ON" will disap-

pear from the display. Exercise caution because the oven will still be hot (about 400°F) at the time the

door lock is released. Reinstall the convection filter and oven racks before

using your oven.

You may notice a powder ash residue in the bottom

of the oven after self cleaning. This is normal. Use a damp cloth or sponge to wipe up the residue after the

oven cools down. Continued...

Self Cleaning Tips

• If any soil remains in the oven after the self clean cycle is done, you may repeat the cycle if you want.

• Self clean the oven regularly to prevent excessive soil build-up. Doing so will make the self clean cycle work

better and reduce smoke and odors.

Setting the Oven to Self Clean at a Later Time

:1. Prepare the oven for self cleaning as instructed on

page 2::[. Observe all safety precautions and remove all items listed from inside the oven. Clean the door

gasket and around the door as instructed.

2. Close the oven door,

3. Press the SELF CLEAN key.

4. Press the START TIME key.

5. Enter the desired start time. For example, press 1-2- 3-0 for 12:30. You may enter a time up to 22 hours and 59 minutes ahead of the present time.

6. Press START.

General Cleanin Information

The cooktop is exposed to extremely high temperatures. The grates are put under a lot of stress when hot uten- sils are placed on them. In addition, the cooktop parts are occasionally exposed to acidy food spill-overs. These severe operating conditions, cause the porcelain enamel

parts on your cooktop to undergo a change in appearance over time. If you care for and clean these parts carefully, you will slow down, but not eliminate, the aging process.

7. When you press START, "Delay" will appear on the display and the oven door will lock. The oven will start to self clean at the time you have selected.

While the oven is set to clean at a later time:

• If you want the display to return to the clock, you

may push the CLOCK key.

• If the clock is displayed, you may push the START TIME key to check the self clean start time.

• When self clean starts, "Delay" will disappear and "ON" will appear on the display.

To cancel the time delayed self clean cycle:

• Press CANCEL. SECURE.

• If the self clean process has not started, allow about a minute for the door to unlock before attempting to

use the oven. If the oven is in the middle of the self clean process,

the door will unlock when the oven has cooled down enough to open safely. The oven will still be hot

(about 400 °F).

• After cleaning, attach the SimmerSear burner knob [] as shown below. The SimmerSear knob has a

wider space between the large flame icon and the simmer icon than the standard burner knobs. Align

the "D-shaped" opening on the back with the end of the valve shaft, Carefully push it on until it stops.

• Attach the remaining knobs which operate the stan- dard burners r_. if you have the optional Dacor grill or griddle, the two knobs with the words "MAX

GRIDDLE" go on the right burner valve stems.

WARNING

• Wash the knobs regularly with a solution of warm soapy water, Dacor recommends hand dishwashing

liquid.

• Turn the knobs to the OFF position to remove them for cleaning or replacement, Grasp each knob and pull straight back, off of the valve shaft,

• Clean the outside edges of the trim rings while the

knobs are removed. Wipe them with a soft damp rag.

it after every use. Also, quickly wipe up spills that occur while cooking. Be careful not to touch any hot areas. Spills that remain on hot burner parts will be very difficult

to clean, especially if allowed to burn on. Certain types of food, such as tomatoes, citrus juices, vinegar, alcohol and

milk can damage the finishes if you allow them to stand

for any length of time.

In addition, the igniters may not spark or work properly if

the burner parts or the igniters themselves are not clean

and dry.

Cooktop Disassembly

WARNING

• When the cooktop is cool, remove the grates from the top of the cooktop.

• Disassemble the burners. Lift the burner caps and

burner rings off of the burners.

WARNING

After disassembling the burners, check for any dirt or

grime deposited on the individual parts, including the igniters.

1. Use a firm tooth brush to gently clean completely around the igniter, including all of the metal top and porcelain base. Do not use water to clean the igniters. If necessary, use a small amount of rubbing alcohol to

help dissolve grime.

2. Examine the burner rings and the top of the SimmerSear burner head. Remove anything stuck in

the holes and grooves with a straightened paper clip,

wire or needle. Be careful not to scratch or damage

the ring and head. Do not distort the shape of the

holes or grooves.

3. Clean all of the burner parts, including the burner bases, with window cleaner or rubbing alcohol. Use a cleaning brush with plastic bristles or a firm tooth

brush. When done, rinse the parts well with clean water. Dry all the parts thoroughly before re-assem- bling them.

4. Reassemble the burners according to the burner and grate assembly instructions on page 7. Turn on power and test the burners after reassembling them. If the

flame is uneven, be sure that all the burner parts

are properly positioned, then check for any remain- ing dirt or grime on the burner parts or igniter. If erratic sparking (clicking) is still present, make sure

the igniter is completely dry. If the unit still exhibits

problems after drying, call your local Dacor Authorized Service Agent.

Cleaning Stainless Steel Surfaces

Grates, Spill Trays and Optional WOK Ring

The grates, the spill tray and optional WOK ring are

coated with a porcelain finish.

• For everyday cleaning, use a soft cloth or nonabrasive pad with

warm soapy water to clean all of the porcelain parts.

If necessary, tough stains may be removed by apply- ing full-strength sprays such as Simple Green TM, Ajax TM All-Purpose Cleaner or Formula 409 TM. To mini- mize wear, use the mildest cleaner needed to get the

surface clean. For extremely stubborn stains, you may use a mildly

abrasive cleaner or applicator, such as Soft Scrub TM, Bon Ami TM, S.O.S. _*_pads or other soap-filled steel

wool pads. Use these cleaners with extreme care and only on occasion. Extensive use of these types of abrasives will eventually damage the porcelain

enamel.

CAUTION

Clean stainless steel surfaces with a mild solution of detergent and warm water. Rinse and dry with a soft, lint-

free cloth. You may also use Dacor Stainless Steel Cleaner on the stainless steel surfaces. Use it according to the

directions on the package.

Cleaning Brass, Chrome and Copper Surfaces

CAUTION

Using a soft cloth, clean metal surfaces with a mild solu- tion of detergent and warm water. Rinse and dry with a soft, lint-free cloth.

the Oven Interior

I_ WARNING

J[/P9 the Exterior Surfaces

Oven Control Panel

[_ CAUTION

To avoid acciden-

tally turning the oven on while

cleaning the con- trol panel, activate

the lock-out feature. Press the CANCEL. SECURE

key for six seconds. The lock-out feature disables

the keys. When the control panel is locked, the word "OFF" appears on the display.

When you want to re-activate the control panel, press CANCEL. SECURE for six seconds.

Clean the control panel with the soft side of a sponge dampened with a mild solution of detergent and warm water. Dry the control panel completely with a soft,

lint-free cloth.

Cleaning Glass Surfaces (Interior and Exterior)

• Use a mild glass cleaner to remove finger prints on glass surfaces. You may also clean glass surfaces with

Dacor Cooktop Cleaning Creme. Use it according to

the directions on the package.

• 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.

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 cleaned

by the self clean process. To use the self clean feature see page 23.

Door Gasket (Seal)

Clean the door gasket by dabbing it with a solution of water and mild soap. Do not scrub it or it will become damaged.

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 one cup of ammonia to two

gallons of water.

If you accidentally leave the racks in the oven during self

cleaning, you can polish them to make them easier to slide. Polish the rack edges with a soapy steel wool pad. Then apply a small amount of vegetable oil to the edges so that the racks slide more easily. Be aware that polish-

ing will not completely remove the discoloration.

Convection Filter

Meat Probe

WARNING

The convection filter is located in the back of each oven

chamber. Clean the filter regularly. If you allow it to become clogged, the oven's convection cooking modes will not work properly. You also need to remove the filter during the self clean cycle.

Removing your oven's convection filter: When the oven is cool, put your fingers around the edges

of the filter and gently push up.

Filter

To clean the filter:

Soak it in hot, soapy water. Rinse well. You may also place it in a dishwasher on the top rack. Dry the filter before re-installing it.

Installing your oven's convection filter: Carefully hook the metal clips on the back of the filter

over the metal bar across the fan hole. Make sure it is centered over the hole. Be careful not to scratch the por-

celain surfaces with the back of the filter.

WARNING

The meat probe is constructed of silicone 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 them with a soft sponge soaked with a

solution of detergent and warm water.

Optional Broil Pan

The broil pan has a porcelain enamel finish. When you

clean it, use a solution of detergent and hot water. If the broil pan is heavily soiled, use a scouring pad with plenty

of water. Rinse it well after cleaning.

Optional Roast/Broil Pan with "V" Shaped Rack

The roast/broil pan has a por-

celain enamel finish. When you clean it, use a solution of deter- gent and hot water. If the roast/ broil pan is heavily soiled, use a

scouring pad and plenty of water. Rinse it well after cleaning.

The optional "V" Shaped rack and the grill are finished

with an Excalibur TM nonstick coating. When you clean

them, use a mild solution of detergent and warm water.

Use the soft side of a sponge to scrub them and dry them with a lint-free cloth.

Clips on back of

filter

Metal bar

Optional Cookie Sheets

Clean the optional aluminum cookie sheets with a solu-

tion 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 parch- ment paper will also prevent food from sticking.

Optional Baking Stone

Wash the optional baking stone with hot water and scrub it clean before you use it for the first 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 flavor of the food cooked on it. Do not 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 off small stains.

Cleaning the Optional Dacor Griddle

and Grill

Clean the griddle/grill after each use. Wash it thoroughly in hot soapy water to avoid stains from grease build-up.

The griddle/grill is coated with a non-stick coating for easy cleaning. Warm water and liquid detergent are all that are needed for cleaning. Remove stubborn spots with a non- abrasive plastic mesh pad. To prevent scratching, do not

use abrasives or abrasive cleaners. Use the soft side of a sponge to scrub it. Dry it with a lint-free cloth.
