Always contact the Dacor Customer Service Team about problems
and conditions that you do not understand.
Safety Symbols and Labels
DANGER
Immediate hazards that WILL result in severe personal injury or
death.
WARNING
Hazards or unsafe practices that COULD result in severe
personal injury or death.
CAUTION
Hazards or unsafe practices that COULD result in minor
personal injury or property damage.
WARNING
If the information in this manual is not
followed exactly, a fire or explosion may
result causing property damage, personal
injury or death.
-Do not store or use gasoline or other
flammable vapors and liquids in the
vicinity of this or any other appliance.
WARNING
WARNING – NEVER use this appliance as a space heater
to heat or warm the room. Doing so may result in carbon
monoxide poisoning and overheating of the appliance.
WARNING
NEVER cover any slots, holes or passages on the inside or
outside of the range or cover an entire rack with materials such
as aluminum foil. Doing so blocks air flow through the oven and
may cause carbon monoxide poisoning. Aluminum foil linings
may also trap heat, causing a fire hazard.
WARNING
Tip-over hazard:
• A child or adult can tip the range and be killed.
• Attach the anti-tip bracket to the floor as directed in these
installation instructions.
• Engage the anti-tip bracket by sliding the anti-tip foot on
the range into it according to these installation instructions.
Using a flashlight, be sure that the anti-tip bracket engages
the range’s anti-tip foot as shown below.
• After moving the range, be sure to re-engage the anti-tip
foot into the anti-tip bracket as shown below.
• See the anti-tip bracket installation instructions in this guide
for further details.
• Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or
serious burns to children or adults.
-WHAT TO DO IF YOU SMELL GAS
• Do not try to light any appliance.
• Do not use any phone in your building.
• Immediately call your gas supplier from
a neighbor’s phone. Follow the gas
supplier’s instructions.
• If you cannot reach your gas supplier,
call the fire department.
-Installation and service must be
performed by a qualified installer, service
agency or the gas supplier.

CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65 WARNING
The burning of gas cooking fuel generates some by-products
that are on the list of substances which are known by the State
of California to cause cancer or reproductive harm. California
law requires businesses to warn customers of potential
exposure to such substances. To minimize exposure to these
substances, always operate this unit according to the use
and care manual, ensuring you provide good ventilation when
cooking with gas.

Important Safety Instructions
WARNING
• Read the accompanying use and care manual before
operating this appliance.
• Keep packaging materials away from children. Plastic
sheets and bags can cause suffocation.
• If you receive a damaged product, immediately contact
your dealer or builder. Do not install or use a damaged
appliance.
• This range must be properly installed and grounded by a
qualified installer according to these installation instructions
prior to use. The installer should show the customer the
location of the gas shut off valve and the fuse or junction
box so that they know where and how to turn off the gas
supply and power to the range.
• This appliance is not designed for installation in a mobile
home or recreational vehicle.
• Do not use this appliance in combination with a surface
(countertop) ventilation system, air curtain or other type of
range hood that directs airflow in a downward direction.
• Do not install, repair or replace any part of the range unless
specifically recommended in the literature accompanying
it. A qualified service technician should perform all other
service.
• Do not connect this range to the gas supply without the
supplied gas pressure regulator installed.
• Before performing any type of service or installation, make
sure the gas supply and power to the range are turned off.
• NEVER block or cover any slots, holes or passages
anywhere inside the oven or on the outside of the range or
cover an oven rack with materials such as aluminum foil.
Doing so blocks airflow through the oven and cooktop and
may cause carbon monoxide poisoning or fire. See the
Getting to Know Your Range section of the use and care
manual for the location of the various air holes (slots).
• Only use the range for cooking tasks expected of a home
appliance as outlined in the literature accompanying it. This
range is not intended for commercial use.
• DO NOT TOUCH THE SURFACES OF THE OVEN[S] OR
COOKTOP DURING OR IMMEDIATELY AFTER USE.
• To avoid the possibility of fire, never leave this appliance
unattended when the cooktop is in use.
• Do not climb on any part of the appliance.
• Do not leave children or pets alone or unattended in the
area around the range. Do not allow children to play with
the controls, pull on the handle(s), or touch other parts of
the range.
• 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.
• Do not attempt to use this appliance in the event of a power
failure.
WARNING
• Clean the cooktop thoroughly before operating it for the first
time.
• Keep flammable items, such as paper, cardboard, plastic
and cloth away from the burners and other hot surfaces.
Do not place such items in the oven(s). Do not allow pot
holders to touch hot surfaces or gas burners.
• Do not wear loose or hanging apparel while using the
range. Do not allow clothing to come into contact with the
interior of the oven(s) or the cooktop and surrounding areas
during and immediately after use.
• To avoid a fire hazard, do not hang flammable or heat
sensitive objects over the range. If the range is near a
window, do not use long curtains as window treatment.
The curtains could blow over the cooktop and create a fire
hazard.
• Do not use the oven(s) for storage.
• Do not touch the outside surfaces of the range during the
self-clean cycle. They will be hot. Venting from the oven
may cause the cooktop and backguard to become hot.
• Make sure that all the cooktop parts are dry before lighting
a burner.
• Turn the knobs to the “OFF” position prior to removing them
from the valve stems.
• The cooktop should never be operated without the knobs
and trim rings in place.
• 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.
• Non-stick coatings, when heated, can be harmful to birds.
Remove birds to a separate, well-ventilated room during
cooking.
• To prevent damage, remove the meat probe from the
oven(s) when it is not being used.
• Do not line the oven(s) with aluminum foil or other
materials. These items can melt or burn up during selfcleaning and cause permanent damage to the appliance.
• Do not leave metal objects, such as aluminum foil, the meat
probe, cookie sheets, etc. on the bottom of the oven(s).
Objects left on the bottom of the oven could damage the
bake element. In addition, the objects themselves could be
damaged.
• On some ovens, the bake and broil elements are behind
glass panels on the floor and ceiling of the oven chamber.
Do not cover these glass panels with cookie sheets,
aluminum foil, pots, pans, etc. Covering them could cause
the heating elements to over-heat, damaging the oven.
