enough to cover the burner grates. Adjust the burner flames so that the flames do not
extend beyond the bottom of the cookware.
• To avoid cookware discoloration, deformity, and/or carbon monoxide poisoning, do not
use cookware that is substantially larger than the grate.
• Make sure cookware handles are turned to the side or rear of the rangetop, but not
over other surface burners.
• Stand away from the range while frying.
• Always heat frying oils slowly, and watch as they heat. If you are frying foods at high
heat, carefully watch during the cooking process. If you are going to use a combination
of fats or oils when frying, mix them together before heating.
English18
Page 19
• Use a deep-fryer thermometer whenever possible. This prevents overheating the fryer
beyond the smoking point.
• Use a minimum amount of oil when shallow pan-frying or deep-frying. Avoid cooking
unthawed food or food with excessive amounts of ice.
• Before moving cookware full of fats or oils, make sure it has completely cooled.
• To prevent delayed eruptive boiling, always allow heated liquids to stand at least 20
seconds after you have turned off the burner so that the temperature in the liquid can
stabilize. In the event of scalding, follow these first aid instructions:
1. Immerse the scalded area in cool or lukewarm water for at least 10 minutes.
2. Do not apply any creams, oils, or lotions.
3. Cover with a clean, dry cloth.
• Do not wear loose or hanging garments when using the appliance. They could ignite
and burn you if they touch a surface burner.
• Never leave plastic items on the appliance. Hot air from the vent can melt or ignite
plastic items or cause a build up of dangerous pressure in closed plastic containers.
• Do not place portable appliances, or any other object other than cookware on the
appliance. Damage or fire could occur if the appliance is hot.
• Always make sure foods being fried are thawed and dry. Moisture of any kind can
cause hot fat to bubble up and over the sides of the pan.
• Always make sure the controls are OFF and the grates are cool before you remove
them to prevent any possibility of being burned.
• Do not put any combustible material or items around the appliance.
• Take care that your hands do not touch the burners when they are on. Turn off the
burners when you change a pan or pot.

Burners
There are three different types of burners on your range. See the diagram below for heat
output and location. The range generates a spark to light the burner when you turn the
knob to HIGH. The Gaskets under the burners prevent spilled liquids from leaking into the
range’s internal parts. The range comes with two sets of burner caps, brass and porcelain
(black), to suit your taste.
Each burner is designed for specific cooking purpose as below table.

Perma-Flame™
The Perma-Flame instant re-ignition feature automatically re-lights a burner quickly if it
goes out. With Perma-Flame, your cooking experience is uninterrupted because the flame
is re-ignited at the same level as when it went out.
Smart Flame™
Smart Flame technology reduces the temperature under the fingers of the porcelaincoated cast iron grates. Smart-Flame extends grate life and protects the finish.
SimmerSear™
Dacor’s exclusive precision burner control system. It allows you to cook with a wide range
of heat settings, from simmer to sear.
English24
Page 25
Ignition
Each knob for surface burner has its
corresponding burner. The location of
corresponding burner is marked next to
the knob.
To light a burner, follow below steps.
1. Push in the knob and turn it counter clockwise to the Lite position. The igniter for the
burner will Spark repeatedly until it lights. The spark makes a“clicking” sound. The
burner should light within four seconds. The flame should burn evenly around the
perimeter of the burner, except underneath each grate support finger, where the flame
height is reduced by Dacor’s Smart Flame feature. A normal flame is steady and blue
in color. Foreign material in the gas line, especially in new construction, may cause
an orange flame during initial operation. This will disappear with further use. Small
yellow tips on the ends of the flames are normal when using LP gas. If a burner does
not ignite, the igniter continues to spark or if the flame is not spread evenly around
the burner cap, see the Troubleshooting section on page 45.
2. Place the cooking utensil on the grate.
3. Adjust the flame to the level necessary to perform the desired cooking process.
Using the rangetop
NOTE
When a burner knob is set to LO, the igniter may continue to spark if the burner is cold.
The burner will stop sparking when warm. To reduce cold burner sparking, set the knob
to HIGH for about 60 seconds, then right the flame to cook. The igniter will also spark
automatically if the flame is distorted by a draft or by the household ventilation system.
Eliminate any drafts or reduce the ventilation blower speed to reduce this type of
problem.
English25
Page 26
Using the rangetop
Tips
• Food cooks just as quickly at a gentle boil as it does at a vigorous, rolling boil.
Maintaining a higher boil than necessary wastes energy and cooks moisture, food
flavor and nutrients out of the food.
• Use a low or medium flame when cooking with utensils that are poor conductors of
heat, such as glass, ceramic or cast iron. Reduce the flame until it covers approximately
1/3 of the utensil diameter. Doing so will ensure even heating and reduce the
likelihood of burning or scorching the food.
Manual ignition
If there is a power failure, you can ignite the burner manually. Use caution when doing
this.
1. Hold a long gas grill lighter to the surface burner you want to light.
2. Push in the control knob for that burner, and then turn it to the Lite position. Turn on
Using the rangetop
the grill lighter to ignite the burner.
3. After the burner is lit, turn the control knob to adjust the flame level.
Flame level
The flames on the burners should always stay under the cookware, and should not extend
beyond the cookware bottom at any time.
Before using burner knobs...
To prevent accidental growth or diminishing in flame size, each burner knob only can be
operated by push-turn method.
Also, it has stop points so that the user can encounter stop points when turning the knob.
When encounter stop points, user should push-turn again to turn the knob. The knob can
be turned only if the user intends to change flame size.
English26

Cookware
WARNING
• Cookware with rough bottoms can cause permanent damage to the coated surfaces.
• To avoid burns and scalding, always turn pan handles to a position where they cannot
be easily hit. Also, handles should not extend over adjacent burners. Always set utensils
gently onto the grates and center them so that they are well-balanced.
• Do not drag cookware across the grates. Sliding may damage the finish. Lift utensils to
reposition them. Do not drop them on the grate.
• To avoid burns or fire hazard, reduce the flame level if it extends beyond the bottom
of the utensil. A flame that extends up the sides of the utensil is potentially dangerous.
• When using glass cookware, make sure it is designed for rangetop cooking.
• Never leave plastic items on the rangetop. Hot air from the vent can melt or ignite
plastic items or cause a building up of dangerous pressure in closed plastic containers.
• Make sure you hold the handle of a wok or a small one-handled pot while cooking.
For overall safety and best 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 and is well balanced
• Has tight fitting lids to keep heat, odors and steam in
• Well-balanced with the handle weighing less than the main portion of the pot or pan.

Dear Valued Customer,
Thank you for purchasing Dacor. We hope our products empower your passion for
cooking!
Inside this box is a set of brass burner caps. These caps are meant to provide an elegant
look to your new Dacor product. These caps may be used for cooking, but please know
beforehand that they will discolor when used. This is a natural reaction of brass when it
comes in contact with the gas flame. We have also included a set of black porcelain burner
caps with this product in case you are concerned about the discoloration. Discoloration of
burner caps is not covered under our warranty, but new burner caps may be ordered from
us if necessary.

service, please contact our team at 833-353-5483(USA), 844-509-4659(Canada).
