General Safety Precautions
To reduce the risk of fire, explosion, electric shock, serious injury or death when installing or using this appliance, follow basic safety
precautions, including the following:
WARNING
Read the accompanying use and care manual completely 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 by a qualified installer according to these installation instructions prior to use. The installer •
must show the customer the location of the gas shut off valve and the circuit breaker panel or fuse box so that they know where
and how to turn off the gas supply and electric power to the range.
If the back wall is made of combustible materials do not operate the range without a backguard or raised vent in place. A fire may •
result.
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 that the gas supply and electric power to the range are 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. 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 OR COOKTOP DURING OR IMMEDIATELY AFTER USE• .
Do not climb on any part of the appliance.•
Never leave this appliance unattended when in use.•
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, 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.•
Do not tamper with the controls. Do not adjust or alter any part of the range unless specifically instructed to do so in these •
instructions.
To prevent the unit from tipping forward and to provide a stable installation, this range must be secured in place with the anti-tip •
device as specified in these instructions.
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. 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.
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.

Cabinet Layout
Carefully check the location where the range is to be •
installed. For best performance, the range should be placed
away from drafts that may be caused by doors, windows and
heating and air conditioning outlets.
To reduce the risk of personal injury and to reduce •
accumulated smoke in the room, Dacor strongly recommends
installing a range hood. A range hood should project
horizontally a minimum of five (5) inches beyond the face of
the cabinets.
All maximum and minimum dimensions and clearances •
shown in the diagram below and on page 8 (as applicable)
must be maintained for safe operation.
In the freestanding configuration, the range may be installed •
flush to the rear wall. For all installations, Dacor highly
recommends installing a non-combustible material on the rear
wall above the range and up to the vent hood or installation
of a backguard. It is not necessary to install non-combustible
materials behind the range below the countertop height.
Any openings in the wall behind the appliance or in the floor •
underneath it must be sealed.
Cutout tolerances: +1/16” (+1.6 mm), -0
Gas and Electrical Service
The shaded area shown denotes the location of the gas •
inlet and the electrical junction box/receptacle. This is the
recommended location. For replacement purposes, the
location of the existing utilities may be utilized provided they
do not interfere with the sides or rear of the range. Check
local building codes for permissible gas valve locations.
An external manual shut-off valve must be installed between •
the gas inlet and the range for the purpose of turning on or
shutting off gas to the appliance.
The installation must allow for the following:
Access to the gas shut-off valve when the unit is installed.•
Access to the remote circuit breaker panel or fuse box, when •
the range is in place.
The gas supply piping, gas shut-off valve and the electrical •
junction box or receptacle must be located so they do not
interfere with the range when it is installed.
The junction box and gas shut off valve must be located •
so that the range can be pulled out for service while the
appliance remains connected.
WARNING
Do not operate the range without the backguard in place if the
back wall is made of combustible materials. A fire may result.

Installation Instructions
Gas Connection
Make sure the gas supply valve is off and that the power to •
the range is turned off at the circuit breaker or fuse box prior
to connecting the gas line.
Do not apply excessive pressure when tightening gas •
connections and fittings.
Do not use Teflon tape or plumber’s putty on gas flex line •
connections.
Check for gas leaks as instructed below before using the •
appliance. Do not use a flame to check for leaks.
For LP installations, the LP gas tank must have its own •
high pressure regulator. This is in addition to the pressure
regulator provided with the range.
The maximum gas supply pressure to the regulator must •
never exceed 1/2 pound per square inch (p.s.i.) or 3.5kPa.
The range and shut-off valve must be disconnected from the •
gas supply piping during any pressure testing exceeding 1/2
p.s.i. (3.5 kPa).
The range must be isolated from the gas supply piping by •
closing the shut-off valve during any pressure testing at or
below 1/2 p.s.i. (3.5 kPa).
Be careful not to damage the wires inside the chassis while •
pushing the gas line through the access holes.
NOTE: The gas pressure regulator is pre-set at the factory for
the type of gas intended for use with the appliance. To verify that
the appliance is compatible with the type of gas available, check
the range rating label (see page 3 for location). Ranges intended
for use with LP gas will have “LP” as a part of the model number.
Consult your dealer if the range is not compatible with the type of
L1 wire
gas supplied.
Make sure the gas supply valve is in the off position and 1.
power to the range is off.
Connect a flexible gas supply line to the gas shut-off valve 2.
previously installed on the stub out. The gas line needs to be
long enough to allow the range to be pulled out for service.
Slide the gas line up through the access holes in the chassis 3.
and up to the regulator. Move the wires around inside the
access holes to prevent them from catching on the gas line
as you push it up.
Connect the gas line to the regulator.4.

Installation Instructions
Verifying Proper Operation
Before operating the range, read the accompanying use and care
manual completely.
Before beginning the test procedure, ensure that all cooktop 1.
control valves are in the OFF position, and all burner rings,
burner caps and grates are properly positioned on the
cooktop frame. Turn on the gas supply at the shut-off valve.
Plug in the appliance cord, if applicable. Turn on power to the 2.
range at the circuit breaker or fuse box.
Set the time of day: Press the clock key. Enter the time on 3.
the number keypad (within 6 seconds). Press START.
Press the 4. BAKE key.
Enter the temperature of 350°F on the keypad.5.
Press 6. START.
The display should show 7. BAKE, and the preheating
temperature.
Press the 8. CANCEL-SECURE key to stop the oven heating
process.
Test one of the burners by pushing the knob in and turning it 9.
counterclockwise to the HIGH position. It may take up to four
seconds for ignition to occur, at which time the ignitor will stop
sparking. If ignition does not occur within four seconds, turn
off the knob, wait for at least five minutes to allow any gas to
dissipate, then repeat the ignition test. After ignition, rotate
the control knob counterclockwise
from HIGH to LOW to adjust the
flame height progressively. When
the range is installed properly, the
flame will be steady and quiet.
It will also have a sharp, blue
inner cone that will vary in length
proportional to the burner size.
Dacor’s Smart Flame™ feature
reduces the flame under the grate
fingers to increase grate life. If the
range is equipped for use with LP
gas, the ends of the flame may be yellow at the
tips, which is normal.
Turn the control knob to the 10. OFF position.
Repeat the ignition test for all remaining burners.11.
If either the oven or cooktop does not operate properly, follow
these troubleshooting steps:
Verify that power and gas are supplied to the range.1.
Check the electrical connections and gas supply to ensure 2.
that the installation has been completed correctly.
Repeat the above bake test or burner ignition test.3.
If the appliance still does not work, contact Dacor Distinctive 4.
Service at (877) 337-3226. Do not attempt to repair the
appliance yourself. Have the model and serial numbers
available when you call. See page 3 for location.
