Important Safety Instructions
General Safety Precautions
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, serious injury or death when using your range, follow basic safety
precautions, including the following:
WARNING 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 gas shut off valve
and the fuse or junction box so that you know where
and how to turn off the gas supply and 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.
Before performing any type of service, make sure that •
the gas supply and electrical power to the range is
turned off.
Only use this 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. After use,
make sure these surfaces have had sufficient time to
cool before touching them.
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 range. Doing so may cause
damage, serious injury or death. Do not leave children
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. If a power failure occurs while operating
the cooktop, turn all control knobs to the OFF position.
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.
Do not cover the burners and grates with anything •
except properly selected utensils. Decorative covers
may cause a fire hazard or damage to the cooktop 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 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 range and surrounding areas during and
immediately after use.
Do not use towels or bulky cloth as pot holders.•
Use only dry pot holders when removing food and •
cookware from the cooktop or oven. Wet pot holders
can cause steam burns.
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.
To avoid the possibility of fire, do not leave the range •
unattended when in use.
Clean the range thoroughly before operating it for the •
first time.
Clean and maintain the range regularly as instructed in •
the Care and Cleaning section of this manual. Keep
the entire range, ventilation filters and range hoods
free of grease that could catch fire.
Use cookware only for its intended purpose. Check •
the manufacture’s recommendations before use to
determine if a utensil is suitable for use with a range.
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.
Use extreme caution if adding water to food on a hot •
cooktop or oven. The steam can cause serious burns
or scalds.
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.

Installing the Oven Racks
WARNING
The oven racks become hot when the oven is in use. Use
potholders to install and adjust the racks.
Standard Oven Racks
Three chrome-plated oven racks are provided. •
Always remember to position the racks prior to
heating the oven.
Also, remove the oven racks prior to self-clean-•
ing to prevent permanent discoloration of the
racks.
The porcelain rack supports provide five (5) •
heights for positioning of the oven racks. To
install a rack, align the left and right edges of
the rack with the horizontal guide rails of the
rack supports, then slide the rack into the oven.
For Proper Installation:
Hold the GlideRack oven rack with the guides 1.
fully extended away from you (see the diagram
below).
Align both sets of safety clips (right and left) on 2.
the back of the guides with the oven rack supports as shown.
Begin to slide the rack in, lifting the front safety 3.
clips over the front of the oven rack supports.
Push the rack all the way to the back.4.
Grasp the rack in the center of the front and 5.
pull. The rack should come forward while the
guides remain in place.
Oven Rack Locations
Gliderack™ Oven Racks
Dacor’s GlideRack oven rack is designed to install
effortlessly and glide at a full extension. The full
extension of the rack allows you to slide pizza on
and off the Dacor’s optional pizza stone (model
number ABS20). It is also great for large roasts in
large roasting pans.
The easy-slide action allows you to baste more
easily and check food temperatures more safely and
quickly.
GlideRack Oven Rack Installation
Helpful Hints When Using Your GlideRack
Oven Rack:
This type of rack works particularly well with •
heavier items, although you can use it during
any baking, broiling or roasting in your Dacor
oven.
Gliderack oven racks will need to be spaced out •
when using more than one in the oven at a time.
For instance, the racks should be used on rack
positions 1, 3 and 5 or 2 and 4, counting up
from the bottom, instead of using racks 2, 3 and
4.
When using the rack with Dacor’s ABS20 baking •
stone, use rack position 1 for best results.
Heavier roasting pans and dishes will also cook •
better on rack position 1.

About the Various Cooking Modes
Standard Bake (Selected Models Only)
In standard bake mode, the bottom heat
element provides conventional baking heat.
Temperaturesmaybesetfrom135˚Fto
555˚Fin5˚Fincrements.Usestandardbakefor
single rack baking and roasting.
Standard Broil
The infrared ceramic gas broiler supplies the
heat in Broil mode. The broil temperature
isadjustablefrom135˚FtotheHIsetting
(equivalentto555˚F)forgreatercookingflexibility.
Broiling is always performed with the door closed.
Pure Convection™ (ERD models only)
Your new oven has the best cooking system
available today, Pure Convection™. Pure
Convection is a total system approach to
cooking. Pure Convection allows multi-rack cooking while achieving even results from one rack to
another.
In Pure Convection mode a third heating element,
encircling the convection fan, is located in the rear
of the oven chamber behind a baffle.
The convection fan draws air from the oven •
chamber, then forces it across the hot convection
heating element. The heated air is directed back
into the oven chamber through the convection
baffle.
The baffle distributes the heated air evenly to •
ensure uniform results. It also separates the
food from the heat source and channels the air
evenly into the oven eliminating any hot or cool
spots.
The convection filter, in the back of the oven, •
eliminates the transference of flavors when
cooking entire meals and keeps the oven
cleaner.
Convection Bake
In this combination convection-radiant mode,
the lower element provides the heat. As in
Pure Convection mode, the convection fan
and baffle combine to circulate heated air evenly
throughout the oven chamber. Temperatures may be
setfrom135˚Fto555˚Fin5˚Fincrements.Usethis
mode for single rack baking, multiple rack baking
and roasting.
Pre-Heat Cycle
The oven features an automatic pre-heat cycle that
rapidly brings the oven chamber up to temperature.
Simply by choosing a cooking mode and setting a
temperature, the oven will automatically perform
the pre-heat function. Pre-heat operates in standard
bake, Pure Convection and convection bake modes.
There is no pre-heat cycle for the broil mode.
Basic Oven Operation
Follow these steps to operate the various oven
modes:
Position the oven rack(s) at the proper height(s).1.
Press the touch key for the mode of your choice. 2.
The oven will beep once, the selected cooking
mode will flash, and “– – –” will be displayed.
Press either the 3. + or – key. The default temperature will be displayed.
To adjust the default temperature for baking, 4.
press and hold the TIME • TEMP key. (Press
+ key to increase the temperature setting, – to
decrease).
“PRE”5. and “ON” and the selected cooking
mode will appear in the clock display. The oven
will begin to heat. If in a convection mode,
the convection fan will turn on. Also, the clock
display will change from the desired cooking
temperature to the actual oven temperature,
startingwith135˚F.Thetemperaturedisplay
willincreasein5˚Fincrementsuntilthedesired
temperature is reached. The cooling fan will turn
onwhentheoventemperaturereaches200˚F.
IMPORTANT: Do not place food inside the oven
until the pre-heat cycle is complete (there is no preheat cycle in broil mode). Continued...
Temperaturesmaybesetfrom135˚to555˚F
in 5˚F increments. Use this mode for single rack
baking, multiple rack baking, roasting and preparation of complete meals.
