Important Safety Instructions
WARNING
• If you receive a damaged product, immediately contact your dealer or builder. Do not install or use a damaged appliance.
• Make sure that the range has been properly installed and grounded by a qualified installer according to the accompanying installation instructions. Have the installer show you the location of the circuit breaker panel or fuse box so that you know where and how to turn off power to the range.
• 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.
• 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.
• Before performing any type of service, make sure that power to the range is turned off at the circuit breaker panel or fuse box.
• Some versions of this appliance are equipped with a four-prong grounding plug for your protection against shock hazard and should be plugged directly into a properly grounded receptacle. Do not cut or remove the grounding prong from this plug.
• WARNING - NEVER cover any slots, holes or passages in the oven bottom or cover an entire rack with materials such as aluminum foil. Doing so blocks air flow through the range and may cause carbon monoxide poisoning. Aluminum foil linings may also trap heat, causing a fire hazard.
• Only use the range for cooking tasks expected of a home appliance as outlined in this manual. This range is not intended for commercial use.
• DO NOT TOUCH THE SURFACES OF THE RANGE DURING OR IMMEDIATELY AFTER USE.
• Never Leave Surface Units Unattended at High Heat Settings – Boil-over causes smoking and greasy spill-overs that may ignite.
• Make sure individuals who use the range are able to operate it properly.
• Never allow anyone, including children to sit, stand or climb on any part of the appliance, including the doors. Doing so may cause tipping, damage, serious injury or death.
• Do not leave children alone or unattended in the area around the appliance. Do not allow children to play with the controls, pull on the handles or touch other parts of the appliance.
• Do not store items of interest to children 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.
• Clean the appliance thoroughly before operating it for the first time.
Tip-over hazard:
WARNING
• A child or adult can tip the range and be killed.
• Verify that the anti-tip bracket has been properly attached to the floor or wall as directed in the installation instructions. Using a flashlight, verify that the range’s anti-tip foot is engaged with the anti-tip bracket as shown below.
• After moving the range, be sure to re-engage the rear leg with the floor or wall mounted anti-tip bracket as shown below.
• Do not operate the range without the anti-tip foot engaged with the anti-tip bracket.
• Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious burns to children and adults.
Anti-tip bracket
Anti-tip foot
• Do not tamper with the controls.
• Do not cover the burners and grates with anything except properly selected utensils. Decorative covers may cause a fire hazard or damage to the range if a burner is accidentally turned on with the cover in place.
• 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.
• 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. 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 or the cooktop and surrounding areas during and immediately after use.
• Do not use towels or bulky cloth as pot holders.
• Do not hang flammable or heat sensitive objects over the range.
• To reduce the possibility of fire, do not use the ovens for storage.

Important Safety Instructions
WARNING
• To avoid the possibility of fire, do not leave the range unattended when using the cooktop.
• Clean and maintain the range regularly as instructed in this manual. Keep the entire range, ventilation filters and range hoods free of grease that could catch fire.
• Use Proper Pan Size – This appliance is equipped with one or more surface units of different size. Select utensils having flat bottoms large enough to cover the surface unit heating element. The use of undersized utensils will expose a portion of the heating element to direct contact and may result in ignition of clothing. Proper relationship of utensil to burner will also improve efficiency.
• Use cookware only for its intended purpose. Check the manufacturer’s recommendations before use to determine if a utensil is suitable for use in an oven or on a cooktop. Certain types of glass, ceramic and earthenware are not suitable for use with a range. 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.
• 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 outside surfaces of the range during the Self Clean cycle. They will be hot.
• Exercise caution when opening the oven doors. Let hot air or steam escape before looking or reaching inside.
• Use extreme caution if adding water to food. Steam can cause serious burns or scalds.
• Use only dry pot holders when removing food and cookware from the ovens. Wet pot holders can cause steam burns.
• 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 ovens to cook without the
• Do not allow food to sit in the oven for more than one hour
• Do not leave objects, such as aluminum foil, the meat probe

Operating the Cooktop
WARNING
• Keep the area around the cooktop clear and free of combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable vapors and liquids.
• Do not obstruct the flow of combustion and ventilation air around the burner grate edges.
• Always check the position of the control knobs to make sure the cooktop is off when you are finished cooking.
• Do not operate the cooktop without all the burner components in place. If the burner ring and cap are not properly seated, the burner may not operate correctly. See page 8 for assembly instructions.
• Never light the burners with a match or other open flame.
IMPORTANT:
Avoid spills as much as possible. The porcelain surfaces of the grates, spill trays and burner caps are acid-resistant but
not acid-proof. Some foods can cause permanent damage if allowed to remain on porcelain surfaces.
To keep the burners operating properly, keep the burner igniters, burner rings and burner caps clean and dry. See page
49 for cleaning instructions.
Selecting the Cookware
CAUTION
Cookware with rough bottoms can cause permanent damage to the coated surfaces.
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 efciently.
Use cookware that:
Has at, smooth bottoms and is well balanced
Has tight tting lids to keep heat, odors and steam in
• 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.

in new construction, may cause an orange ame during initial operation. This will disappear with further use. Small yellow tips on the ends of the ames are normal
when using LP gas.
3. If a burner does not ignite, the igniter continues to
spark or if the ame is not spread evenly around the
burner cap, see the Before You Call for Service section on page 30.
4. Place the cooking utensil on the grate.
5. Adjust the ame to the level necessary to perform the
desired cooking process.
IMPORTANT: When the cooktop is cool, the igniter may
continue to spark if the control knob is set to the LOW
position. The burner will stop sparking when warm. The
tendency to spark when cold can be reduced by operating
the burner at a higher ame setting for about 60 seconds. After 60 seconds, lower the ame to cook. The burner will also warm up faster if a utensil is placed on the grate. The igniter will also spark automatically if the ame is distorted
by a draft or by the household ventilation system. Elimi nate any drafts or reduce the ventilation blower speed to reduce this type of
problem.

Cooktop Tips
Dacor’s SimmerSear feature allows you precision control
of the ame. The larger the burner size, the wider the
range of control. See page 4 for the heat ranges of the different burners.
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
avor and nutrients out of the food.
Use a low or medium ame when cooking with uten­sils that are poor conductors of heat, such as glass,
ceramic or cast iron. Reduce the ame 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.

Operating the Cooktop
3. Turn the center front burner knob to the light (HIGH)
Using the Griddle
For best results, allow the griddle to preheat for about 10 minutes before you start to cook.
1. Before using the griddle for the rst time, wash it in
hot, soapy water. Rinse it and allow it to dry thor­oughly. See page 51.
2. With all of the burners off and the range cool to the touch, put the griddle over the top of the center grate
on the range*. The grease trap goes toward the back
of the range. Fit the tabs that stick out of the bottom of the feet into the inside corners of the grate. When it is correctly installed, the griddle will rest securely
about 1/2” above the top surface of the grate. It may
rock slightly, which is normal.
4. Repeat step 3 for the center rear burner knob.
During cooking be careful with metal utensils on the sur­face because they can scratch the non-stick coating.
Clean the griddle after each use. See page 51 for instructions.
* The center grate has burners of the same size in the
front and back for even heating.
