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:
DANGER
IMPORTANT: To avoid the possibility of explosion
or fire, 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 cooktop and oven. Do not store
flammable or explosive materials in adjacent cabinets
or areas.
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.
• 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.
• Never allow anyone, including children to sit, stand
or climb on any part of the range, including the
door. Doing so may cause tipping, damage, serious
injury or death.
• CAUTION - Do not store items of interest to
children in cabinets above the range or on the
backguard of the range. Children climbing on the
range to reach items could be seriously injured.
• Do not tamper with the controls.
• Never leave cooktop elements unattended at high
heat settings. Boil-over causes smoking and greasy
spill-overs that may ignite.
• Keep flammable items, such as paper, cardboard,
plastic, cloth (including potholders) away from hot
surfaces. Do not place such items in the oven.
• Do not place or store items that could melt or catch
fire on the cooktop or in the oven, even when the
range is not in use.
• Do not wear loose or hanging apparel when
using the range. Do not allow clothing to come
into contact with the cooktop, oven interior or
surrounding areas during and immediately after
use.
• To avoid overheating, do not allow pans to boil dry.
WARNING
• 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.
• For your safety, do not use the oven to cook
without the convection filter installed. When the
filter is not installed, the spinning fan blades at the
back of the oven are exposed.
• 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.
▪Let fat cool before attempting to handle it.▪Wipe up spill-overs immediately.
• DO NOT TOUCH THE SURFACES OF THE OVEN OR
COOKTOP DURING OR IMMEDIATELY AFTER USE.
Surface elements may be hot even though they are
dark in color. Use potholders to handle hot utensils.
• Hold the handle of the utensil to prevent movement
when stirring or turning food.
• Use cookware only for its intended purpose. Check
the manufacturer’s recommendations before use
to determine if a utensil is suitable for use on a
cooktop or in an oven. Personal injury or damage
may result from the improper use of cookware.
• Glazed cookware not designed for high heat use
may crack or break, causing a spill or burn hazard.
Before using glazed cookware, such as glass,
ceramic or earthenware, check the manufacturer’s
temperature and usage recommendations.
• This appliance is equipped with heating elements of
different sizes. Select utensils having flat bottoms
large enough to cover the 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
element will also improve efficiency.
• Exercise caution when opening the oven door. Let
hot air or steam escape before looking or reaching
into the oven.
• Do not use towels or bulky cloth as potholders.

f. In the event that personal clothing catches fire,
drop and roll immediately to extinguish flames.
• Use only dry potholders when removing food and
cookware from the cooktop or oven. Wet potholders
can cause steam burns. Do not let potholders come
into contact with hot heating elements.
• Do not use utensils that do not attract and hold
a magnet and never use a steel plate or griddle
to heat a nonmagnetic utensil, which can cause
INJURY or DAMAGE to the cooktop elements and
controls.
• Do not heat eggs or unopened food containers such
as baby food jars and cans. Pressure build up may
cause them to burst and cause injury.
• 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.
• Make sure individuals who use the range are able
to operate it properly.

settings and the cooking temperature. See below for the symbols that
appear on the display.
• Your range is equipped with an induction type cooktop. Induction cooking is totally different from traditional types of cooking. A magnetic induction element
below the cooking surface heats utensils (magnetic
only) directly. Induction cooking is much more efficient because less energy is lost heating the cooktop
itself. Also, food that spills on the cooktop does not
burn since the cooktop is much cooler.
• The cooktop has four circular cooking zones. Below
each cooking zone is the magnetic induction cooking
element. Each cooking zone has its own set of controls. The control keys are activated by touching them
with your fingertip. Pressing hard is not necessary
because the keys are not pressure sensitive. NOTE:
Spills or cleaning solutions on the keys can cause
unwanted operation. Dry the control area with a clean
cloth and reset the control to correct.
• All of the induction elements under the cooking zones
feature temperature limiters to ensure a safe operating temperature for the glass ceramic top. The elements automatically cycle on and off. At higher power
settings, the induction element will stay on for longer
periods of time.

Power Management Feature
The Dacor induction power management feature regulates
the amount of power the elements on one side (left or
right) can draw at the same time. If you set both controls
on the same side to the higher power settings, power to
both elements will be reduced slightly and cooking times
will be slightly longer. When cooking on two elements at a
higher setting, Dacor recommends using one element on
the left and one on the right.

Operating the Cooktop
Before Using the Cooktop
Before using the cooktop for the first time:
• Be sure all packing materials, labels or tape are
removed from the cooktop surface.
• Wipe the cooktop with a clean, damp sponge and dry.
• Apply Dacor Cooktop Cleaning Crème, according to
the Care and Cleaning section.
• During the first uses of the cooktop, you may smell a
slight burning odor or see light smoke. These conditions are normal for new glass ceramic cooktops.
• Be certain that the cookware and glass surfaces are
clean and dry before you place a pot or pan on the
cooktop and turn on an element.
Selecting the Proper Cookware
IMPORTANT:
• It is important to select cookware carefully. Improperly selected utensils will not cook efficiently or
evenly. All utensils used on an induction cooktop
MUST be magnetic (must attract and hold a magnet).
Select cooking utensils that are specifically identified for use with induction cooktop. Utensils with poor
magnetic conduction will not heat properly, may cause
vibration or cause the no pan detected light to come
on.
• Use proper pan size. This appliance is equipped with
surface units of different sizes. The cookware must
have heavier flat bottoms and the diameter should be
large enough to cover the surface unit heating element. Using cookware that is a lot smaller than the
cooking zone wastes energy and may cause the “no
pan detected” light to come on and shut off power to
the cooking zone.
• Choose cookware that matches the amount of food
being prepared and closely matches the diameter
of one of the cooking zones. Use tight fitting lids to
retain heat, odors and steam.
Do not use:
• Cooking utensils that have bottoms that are rounded,
convex or concave.
Determining Cookware Size
• Do not use cookware that is more than 1/2 inch larger
in diameter than the cooking zone being used.
• For optimal performance, use pots or pans that are
between 1/2 inch smaller and 1/2 inch larger than the
cooking zone being used.
Cooking zone
Optimal Pan Size
Cookware Placement
IMPORTANT: Center the cookware in the cooking zone.
Cookware that is off center may cause the “no pan
detected” light to come on and shut off power to the
cooking zone.
Cooking zone
• Utensils that are smaller in diameter than the cooking
zone being used.
• Utensils made of materials that are poor heat conductors.
• Griddle plates that cover more than one cooking zone.
• Dirty pans or pans with greasy build-up.
Improper utensils will not heat properly, wobble and may
cause vibration.

Operating the Cooktop
Operating the Cooktop Controls
WARNING
• Turn on the induction cooktop only after placing the
cookware on the element.
• Do not leave metallic utensils or lids on the cooking
surface since they can become hot or may warp.
• Even though the cooktop itself does not heat, it still
becomes hot due to the pots and pans placed on top
of it becoming hot.
• For safe operation, know which control adjusts each
element (see page 6).
• Make sure the cooktop surface is clean and dry.
• Place the pan on the desired cooking zone and center
it.
• Locate the ON/OFF key for the selected cooking
zone. Touch and hold your finger on the ON/OFF
key for one second. When the power light turns on,
remove your finger.
• Select the desired power level by touching the UP (►)
or DOWN (◄) key repeatedly. The more power level
lights illuminated, the higher the power.
NOTE:
◊ If a power level is not selected within 10 seconds,
the control will turn off.
◊ You can change the power level setting at any
time during the cooking process.
◊ When selecting a power level, you can also hold
your finger on the UP (►) or DOWN (◄) key until
the desired power level is displayed, then remove
your finger.
• Turn off power to the cooking zone by touching the
ON/OFF key or simply remove the pan from the
cooktop. 30 seconds after removing a pan the control
for that cooking zone shuts off automatically. NOTE:
If a pan is placed on the same cooking zone before 30
seconds has elapsed the cooking zone will remain on
at the same setting.
Number of
Lights
Power Boost
Your induction cooktop is equipped with a power boost
feature. Use power boost to bring large quantities of
water or food to cooking temperature faster. Power boost
increases the induction element power up to 39%, for 10
minutes. NOTE: Power boost can only be used on one
side (left or right) of the cooktop at a time (see cooktop
layouts on page 6).
To use power boost:
1. Make sure the cooktop surface is clean and dry.
2. Place the pan on the desired cooking zone and center
it.
3. Locate the ON/OFF key for the selected cooking
zone. Touch and hold your finger on the ON/OFF
key for one second. When the power light turns on,
remove your finger.
4. Select power level 8 by touching the DOWN (◄) key
momentarily or by touching the UP (►) key repeatedly.
5. With 8 power lights shown on the control panel, touch
the UP (►) key once. The power boost light will come
on. It will turn off after about 10 minutes when power
boost automatically turns off.
Cooking Tips
• Practice and experience will ultimately determine the
power levels that work best for you. Don’t be afraid to
experiment and arrive at your own preferred cooking
settings. You may want to take notes when you find
a setting that works good for a particular food item.
There are blank pages in the back of this manual for
cooking notes.
• There will be some variation in the efficiency of the
pots being used. All brands do not behave in exactly
the same way since the different metals used conduct
the electromagnetic waves from the induction elements differently.
Auto Shut-off Feature
• If the cooktop is on for too long, it will shut-off automatically in the interest of safety. If one of the elements is on for an unusually long period of time, and
the control settings are not changed, the cooktop will
shut off automatically and the residual heat indicator will light. The amount of time before the cooktop
shuts down varies with the power setting and the type
of cookware in place on the element.
• The cooktop may be restarted again after shut-off
takes place according to the Operating the Controls
section.

• Touch and hold the CANCEL·SECURE key for about
four seconds. The control panel keys will stop working and “OFF” will appear on the display. Only the
CANCEL·SECURE and oven light keys remain functional.
• To reactivate the control panel, touch and hold the
CANCEL·SECURE key for four seconds.
Before Using the Oven...
• Dacor recommends turning the oven on for one hour
at 500°F to burn off any residual oils used during the
manufacturing process. Any of these oils left on the
inner parts can cause an undesirable smell the first
few times the oven is used.
• When you use your oven to bake or roast, it preheats
automatically. The preheat cycle rapidly brings the
oven chamber up to the proper cooking temperature.
It takes several minutes to preheat the oven. Preheat
time depends on the temperature settings. The time
may be longer depending on the type of electrical
supply in your community. There is no preheat cycle
for any of the broil modes.
• After you pull food out of the oven, it will continue to
cook. This process is called “carry-over.” The larger
the portion of food, the longer it will cook. It is best to
let the meat rest after it comes out of the oven for 10
to 15 minutes before carving. Doing so will allow the
meat to retain its natural juices and make it easier to
carve.

Operating the Oven
Racks
You may use either rack type on any level inside the oven.
WARNING
To reduce the chance of burns, position the oven
racks when the oven is cool. If you must reposition a
rack when the oven is hot, do not allow potholders to
contact the heating element inside the oven.
Standard Racks
To insert a standard oven rack:
1. Insert the end of the rack with the safety notches into
the oven first.
2. Attach both sides of the rack to the rack supports in
the oven as shown in the diagram below.
3. Begin to slide the rack in, and then, lift up so that the
safety notches clear the ends of the rack supports.
4. Push the rack all the way in with both hands.
To remove a standard oven rack:
• Grasp it with both hands and pull gently straight out
toward you until it stops.
• To remove the rack completely, lift the front of the
rack up about six inches and continue to pull it out.
Lifting the rack releases the safety notches. The
safety notches reduce the chances of a rack coming
out of the oven accidentally.
GlideRack™ Oven Racks
Your oven comes with Dacor’s deluxe GlideRack oven
racks. You can pull them out further than other types of
oven racks and still support heavy pots and pans full of
food. They are great for heavier foods and the optional
Dacor baking stone.
To install a GlideRack oven rack:
1. Align both sets of safety clips (right and left) on the
back of the rack guides with the oven rack supports as
shown below. NOTE: The diagram below shows installation with the rack guides extended but, the rack
may be installed with or without the guides extended,
whichever is easier.
2. Begin to slide the rack in, lifting the front safety clips
over the front of the oven rack supports.
3. Push the rack all the way in.
4. Grasp the rack in the center of the front and pull. The
rack should come forward while the guides remain in
place.
To remove a GlideRack oven rack:
• Grasp the rack with both hands and pull it gently
straight out toward you until it stops.
• Lift up until the front safety clips just clear the front
of the rack supports on the oven. Continue to pull out.
Moving the end of the rack back and forth slightly, left
to right, as you pull, will make it easier to remove.
