Planning the Installation
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 5 inches beyond the face of the
cabinets.
• All maximum and minimum dimensions and clearances
shown in the diagrams below must be maintained for safe
operation.
• The range may be installed flush to the rear wall. Dacor
strongly 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 noncombustible 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.

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.
• 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 (psi) or 3.5 kPa.
• The range and shut-off valve must be disconnected from the
gas supply piping during any pressure testing exceeding 1/2
psi (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 psi (3.5 kPa).
• Check all gas lines for leaks as instructed to avoid a fire or
explosion hazard. Do not use a flame to check for leaks.
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
gas supplied.
Before sliding the range into the cabinet:
1. Make sure the gas supply valve is in the off position and that
power to the range is off.
2. Connect a flexible gas supply line to the gas shut-off valve
previously installed on the stub out. The gas line needs to be
long enough to allow the range to be pulled out for service.
3. Remove the gas regulator access cover.
4. Slide the end of the gas line under the back cover into the
regulator compartment from the bottom.
5. Connect the gas line to the regulator.
6. Turn all cooktop control valves to the “OFF” position. Turn on
the gas supply.

Verifying Proper Operation
Before operating the range, read the accompanying use and
care manual completely. It contains Important safety, service and
warranty information.
1. Before beginning the test procedure, ensure that all cooktop
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.
2. Check for gas leaks.
3. Turn on power to the range.
4. Set the time of day: Press the clock key. Enter the time on
the number keypad (within 6 seconds). Press START.
5. Press the BAKE key.
6. Enter the temperature of 350°F on the keypad.
7. Press START.
8. The display should show BAKE, and the preheating
temperature.
9. Press the CANCEL-SECURE key to stop the oven heating
process.
10. Test one of the burners by pushing the knob in and turning it
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.
11. Turn the control knob to the OFF position.
12. Repeat the ignition test for all remaining burners.
If the range does not operate properly, follow these
troubleshooting steps:
1. Verify that power and gas are supplied to the range.
2. Check the electrical connections and gas supply to ensure
that the installation has been completed correctly.
3. Repeat the above bake test or burner ignition test.
4. If the appliance still does not work, contact Dacor Distinctive
Service at (800) 793-0093 ex. 2822. Do not attempt to repair
the appliance yourself. Have the model and serial numbers
available when you call. See page 3 for location.
