Getting to Know Your Oven
Parts of the Oven
A Control panel Your oven’s control panel consists of touch keys and a display. Use the control
panel to control all the oven’s features (sometimes called modes).
B Air intake/Exhaust slots The oven draws air in through the intake slots to cool its internal parts. The air
comes out through the exhaust slot at the bottom of the oven. Do not block or
cover the air intake or exhaust slots.
C Meat probe connector When you use the meat probe, insert the skewer into the meat and plug the other
end into this connector. See the Using the Meat Probe section on page 11 for
proper operation. On double ovens, only the upper oven is equipped with a meat
probe connector.
D Oven lights There are two oven lights inside the oven chamber so that you can easily see the
food inside. Touch the light key on the control panel to turn them on. The bulbs are
12 volt, 20 watt, halogen.
E Rack supports There are seven sets of rack supports inside each oven chamber. They support the
adjustable oven racks. They are numbered from the bottom up.
F Door gasket The door gasket prevents heat from escaping when the door is closed.
G Self-clean latch The self-clean latch automatically locks the oven door during the self-clean cycle.
The door latches for your safety. There are very high temperatures inside the oven
during the self-clean cycle.
H Broil elements The broil elements are located on the ceiling of the oven chamber. They are hidden
behind a glass panel. They are the source of top heat.
J Convection fan The convection fan blows heated air into the oven chamber during the convection
cooking process. The convection lter covers it.
K Convection element The convection element heats the air that is blown into the oven chamber by the
convection fan during the convection cooking process. The convection lter covers
it.

“Beep”
Off/On
Before You Cook...
• 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 rst
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 juices and make it easier to carve.
CAUTION
Do not allow acids (citrus juices, tomato sauces, etc.) to remain
on the oven’s surfaces. The porcelain finish may stain or pit.

Operating Your 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,
use pot holders.
To insert the standard oven rack(s)...
1. Insert the end of the rack with the safety notches into
the oven rst.
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 the standard oven rack(s)...
• If you want to remove an 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.
To insert a GlideRack oven racks...
Your oven comes with a set of Dacor GlideRack oven
racks. You can pull a GlideRack oven rack out further than
a standard rack and still support heavy pots and pans
full of food. It is great for heavier foods and the optional
Dacor baking stone.
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 racks...
• 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.

Operating Your Oven
Starting Your Oven
1. Adjust the racks to the appropriate level.
2. Determine the best cooking mode for the type of food
to be cooked.
Select from the following...
• CONVECTION BAKE - A combination of the
convection fan and a bottom heat source.
Good for single rack items in a deep pan.
• CONVECTION BROIL - A combination of
the convection fan and a top heat source.
Good for items that do not need to be ipped, such as
thinner cuts of meat, sh, and garlic bread.
• PURE CONVECTION™ - Uses convection cooking only for even heat. Use for baked goods and
multiple rack cooking.
• CONVECTION ROAST - Combines top and
bottom heat sources with the convection
fan. Best for rib roasts, turkeys, chickens, etc.
• BAKE - Cooks with a bottom heat source only.
Commonly used for basic recipes.
• BROIL - Cooks using a top heat source alone.
Use for grilling smaller cuts of meat or toasting
bread.
IMPORTANT
The broil modes will not work when the meat probe is
connected.
See page 8 for detailed descriptions of the various
cooking modes.
3. Touch the key for the desired cooking mode. The
preset (jump-in) temperature will appear on the display along with the symbol(s) for the selected cooking mode (see above). On double ovens, select the
desired oven by touching the cooking mode key under
UPPER OVEN or LOWER OVEN on the control panel.
4. To cook at the preset temperature, touch START. To
cook at a different temperature enter it (for example
4-2-5) on the number keypad, then touch START.
You can enter any temperature between 100°F (37°C)
and 555°F (291°C). The suggested broil temperature
is 555°F. Double ovens have only one START key, on
the left side of the control panel. Use it to start both
ovens.
5. If you are using Pure Convection or one of the bake
or roast modes, “PRE-” for preheating, along with the
current oven temperature will appear on the display
until the oven reaches the set temperature. Once the
oven reaches the set temperature (usually in 15 to 20
minutes), it will beep and “PRE-” will disappear. Carefully place your food in the oven. Excessive browning
will occur if you put the food in during preheat.
Turning Off Your Oven
To turn the oven off, touch the CANCEL · SECURE key.
On double ovens, touch the CANCEL · SECURE key under
UPPER OVEN or LOWER OVEN.

Bake
Uses only a heat source from below the food. This mode
is the stand-by, non-convection mode. All baked items will
turn out nicely in this mode.
Baking Tips
• For best results, use a single rack when using bake
• Follow your recipe’s original cooking time and tem-
• Do not open the oven door frequently during baking.
• Use the timers to determine baking time.
• Wait until the shortest recommended baking time
Your oven offers three convection cooking
modes...
• Pure Convection
• Convection Bake
• Convection Roast
As a general rule, in the convection modes time is about
25% shorter. Set the timer 15 minutes before the shortest
stated time and add more time if necessary.
For Pure Convection and Convection Bake
modes...
Some recipes, especially those that are homemade, may
require adjustment and testing when converting from
standard to convection baking. If you are unsure how to
convert a recipe, begin by preparing the recipe using the
standard bake settings.
If the food is not cooked to your satisfaction during this
rst convection trial, adjust one recipe variable at a time
(such as cooking time, rack position, or temperature) and
repeat the convection test. If necessary, continue adjusting one recipe variable at a time until you get satisfactory
results.

before checking the food. For most baked goods, a
wooden toothpick placed in the center should come
clean when the food is done.
Baking - The gentle cooking of dry goods such
as cookies, cakes, soufés, etc.
Roasting - The cooking of meats or vegetables
over a period of time.
Broiling - Cooking with an intense heat for a
short amount of time.

Operating Your Oven
Pure Convection
The uniform air circulation provided by Pure Convection
allows you to use more oven capacity at once. Use this
mode for single rack baking, multiple rack baking, roasting and preparation of complete meals. Many foods, such
as pizzas, cakes, cookies, biscuits, mufns, rolls and
frozen convenience foods can be successfully prepared on
two or three racks at a time. Pure Convection is also good
for whole roasted duck, lamb shoulder and short leg of
lamb.
AIR FLOW
Your oven offers two broil modes...
• Broil
• Convection Broil
Broiling is a quick, avorful way to prepare many foods,
including steaks, chicken, chops, hamburgers and sh.
Broil
Uses a top heat source. It is best for broiling smaller
amounts of food.
Convection Broil
This mode uses a combination of the convection fan and
a top heat source. It is best for items that do not need to
be ipped such as, thinner cuts of meat, sh and garlic
bread.
WARNING
• Use the broil and convection broil modes only with the oven
door completely closed.
• To avoid damage to the meat probe, remove it from the oven
when using either of the broil modes. If the meat probe is
connected the broil modes will not start. The meat probe
symbol will flash when you attempt to start the oven in one of
the broil modes with the meat probe connected.
Broiling Tips
• To reduce the chance of overcooking, use rack posi-
For multiple rack baking...
• Typically, when baking on two racks with your oven,
use rack positions #3 and #5 (counting from the
bottom up). When baking on three racks, use rack
positions #2, #4 and #6.
• When adapting a single rack recipe to multiple rack
baking, it may be necessary to add to the baking time
due to the extra bulk of the food in the oven.
Convection Bake
Use this mode for single rack baking. The combination of
the convection fan and bottom heat source is best for fruit
crisps, custard pies, double-crusted fruit pies, quiches,
yeast breads in a loaf pan and popovers. Also, items
baked in a deep ceramic dish or earthenware clay pots are
best in this mode. Most of these items cook in a deep pan
and require browning on the top and bottom.

WARNING
Food safety is an important consideration when using the delay
timed features. To avoid potential sickness and the spoiling of
food, take the following steps:
• Avoid using foods that will spoil while waiting for the oven to
start cooking. Typical foods to avoid include: those containing
eggs and dairy products, cream soups and cooked or
uncooked meats, poultry and fish.
• Do not allow foods to remain in the oven after it turns
completely off. When the temperature drops below
140°F (60°C), bacteria can develop (after hold mode).
If cooking will not begin immediately, place only very cold or

The Three Ways to Use Delay Timed
Cooking
• Set the time the oven turns on (START TIME) and set
it to turn off at a later time using either the COOK TIME
key or the STOP TIME key.

time using either the COOK TIME key or the STOP
TIME key.
About the 3 Delay Timed Settings
The delay timed cooking keys are:
• START TIME: The time the oven starts cooking
• COOK TIME: The amount of time the oven cooks
before it goes into hold mode.
• STOP TIME: The clock time the oven turns off and
goes into hold mode.
When you set 2 of the 3 above, the oven automatically
calculates the third.

Operating Your Oven
About Hold Mode
• When you set the oven to stop cooking using the
COOK TIME or STOP TIME keys, it will go into “hold”
mode (HLd appears on the display) when it reaches
the end of the cook time you have set. The oven will
keep the temperature at 150°F (66°C) for two hours.
• Touch CANCEL · SECURE to turn the oven all the way
off.
• To avoid sickness, do not allow foods to remain in the
oven after it is off (after hold mode turns off).

Using Delay Timed Cooking
Using the Meat Probe
NOTE
Delay-timed cooking cannot be used in Sabbath mode.
1. Adjust the racks to the appropriate level.
2. Put the food in the oven.
3. Touch the key for the desired cooking mode (except
Broil or Convection Broil).
4. Enter the desired cooking temperature on the number
keypad.
5. If you want to turn the oven on immediately and turn
off automatically at a later time, skip to step 8.
6. Touch the START TIME key.
7. Enter the time you want the oven to start on the
keypad. For 12:35, touch 1-2-3-5. You may enter
a time up to 22 hours and 59 minutes ahead of the
present time. Touch the # key to change “AM“ or
“PM.”
8. If you want to set the stop time or cooking duration,
touch either the STOP TIME or COOK TIME key
(otherwise skip to step 9). Using the COOK TIME key
allows you to determine when the oven will stop cooking by entering the amount of time the oven is on.
Using the STOP TIME key allows you to determine
when the oven will stop cooking by entering the clock
time. Using either key achieves the same result.
9. Touch START.
10. If you entered a START TIME, the oven will start at
the start time entered.
11. If you entered a COOK TIME or STOP TIME the oven
will cook until the time entered and then, go into hold
mode.
IMPORTANT
The time required to preheat the oven must be included in the
amount of cook time. For cooking temperatures of 350°F (177°C)
and below, add 13 minutes to the cook time. Increase the cook
time as the temperature increases above 350°F.
When you cook foods like roasts and poultry, the internal
temperature is the best way to tell when the food is properly cooked. Your oven’s meat probe is an easy way to
take the guesswork out of roasting. You can use it to cook
food to the exact temperature you desire. The probe can
be set from 100°F (38°C) to 200°F (93°C).
To use the meat probe...
1. Prepare the meat for cooking prior to setting the

WARNING
• To avoid the possibility of burns, use hot pads to handle,
connect and unplug the meat probe when the oven is hot.
• Use the handles to insert and remove the meat probe’s
skewer and to connect it to the oven. Pushing or pulling
on either end of the cable could damage the meat probe.
To avoid breaking the meat probe, make sure the food is
completely defrosted before inserting the skewer.
• To prevent damage, never leave the meat probe inside
the oven when it is not being used, especially during the
self-clean cycle.
• Using a meat probe other than the one provided with your
oven may result in damage to the probe and/or the oven.
NOTE
• The meat probe does not work with Broil or Convection Broil
and Sabbath modes. Plug in the meat probe when using the
above modes, the meat probe symbol will flash indicating an
error.
• If the meat probe is accidently disconnected after the PROBE
key is touched, the meat probe symbol will flash and the error
message “OPn” will appear on the display.
oven. Insert the meat probe skewer into the center
of the meat. Make sure that the skewer is not inside
any fatty portions of the meat and does not touch any
bones. The point should rest in the thickest part of
the meat. When you are cooking fowl, the tip of the
skewer should rest toward the center of the bird.
