Important Information About Safety

Instructions

The Important Safety Instructions and warnings in this manual

are not meant to cover all possible problems and conditions

that can occur. Use common sense and caution when installing,

maintaining or operating this or any other appliance.

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.

Important Safety Instructions

READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING

IMPORTANT: If you smell gas:

• Do not use or light any appliance.

• Do not touch any electrical switch or use any electrical

devices, including the telephone, in your building.

• From a neighbors phone, immediately call the gas supplier.

Follow the gas supplier’s instructions.

• If you cannot contact the gas supplier, call the fire

department.

IMPORTANT: Do not store or use combustible, flammable or

explosive vapors and liquids (such as gasoline) inside or in the

vicinity of this or any other appliance. Also keep items that could

explode, such as aerosol cans, away from the burners and the

oven. Do not store flammable or explosive materials in adjacent

cabinets or areas.

IMPORTANT: Child entrapment and suffocation are not

problems of the past. Junked or abandoned appliances are

still dangerous, even if they sit out for “just a few days.” When

taking an appliance out of service, please follow the instructions

below to help

prevent accidents:

• Take off the door.

• Leave the racks in place so children cannot easily climb

inside.

• Cut the prongs off the power cable plug and discard them.

• Cut the power cable off and discard it separately from the

old 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.

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

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:

• 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 electric 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.

• 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 electric 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 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.

• 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 burner assembly, grates or surrounding surfaces (including the backguard) or the interior surfaces of the

oven(s) during use. After use, make sure these surfaces have had sufficient time to cool before touching them.

• 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(s) 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.

WARNING

Important Safety Instructions

• 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 self-cleaning and cause

permanent damage to the oven.

• 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.

• 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 covers are in place when using the oven(s). The lens covers protect the light bulbs from

breakage caused by high oven temperatures or mechanical shock.
